Everyone likes to think that they’re pretty smart and at the top of their game all the time, but the truth is, we all do and say some pretty dumb things sometimes. Like eating an entire bucket of KFC or looking everywhere for our glasses while we’re wearing them (true story). However, sometimes people mess up so badly that they end up on the internet when it looks like brain.exe stopped working for them.

Most of us know that embarrassing memories of dumb stuff that we did back in school/work/last Monday tend to resurface at the worst possible moments. So to make you feel better about yourself, Bored Panda has collected a list of some awesomely dumb things that people have said and done.

There’s nothing like other people messing up to make us forget all of our mistakes for a moment, right, dear Pandas? Scroll down, upvote your fave pics, and if you feel brave, let us know what the stupidest things you’ve ever done were! You can check out our earlier articles about stupid people doing stupid stuff here and here. Oh, and here's the coronavirus edition of dumb people acting dumb.

There are two kinds of stupidity. The kind where we don’t know that we’re being stupid. And the type where we definitely know but don’t want to stop. No matter how important and wise we might be, we’ll still make mistakes.

But there are reasons why human beings do stupid things, even if we’re aware that what we’re doing is wrong.

There are two kinds of pleasure. The first one that some call ‘liking’ is happy satisfaction that we get from eating a good meal, having a drink of water after a fun game of basketball, or getting a hug from a friend you haven’t seen in ages. Simple, wholesome things that make life wonderful.

The second kind of pleasure, ‘wanting,’ is associated with thrills and desire. It’s the second kind of pleasure that makes us do stupid things that can have lots of negative consequences.

Sometimes, we say, “Damn the consequences” and do something small that’s stupid; no real harm done, right? Wrong. This can have a snowball effect and we’ll start doing dumber and dumber things. The next thing you know, we might end up on the internet before our brain.exe could reboot and save the day.

I'd assume the landlord meant photos of the dials and pilot light on the hot water service outside the house. In which case, the fail here lies with Patrick.

I see people all the time who don't even wear one. It makes me angry that they care so little about the health risk they pose to the rest of us.I have diabetes & high blood pressure and don't need to be put at risk like that. On the rare occasions when I do go out I always wear one in cabs or in the store.

It has been explained to us time and time again that the masks are to protect others from ourselves. The masks don't do that much to protect the wearer. Part of the problem is that we think just because we don't have any symptoms we can't possibly be part of the problem. You can have very mild symptoms or no symptoms and be unaware that you actually have the virus and have the ability to infect others. So the masks are primarily used to stop us from spreading it, not from getting it. The precautions we are advised to take to protect ourselves from getting it are to wash our hands frequently and not to touch our faces, to keep our distance from others, not to gather closely with other people. But yes, what she is doing is freakishly stupid. I wonder what she thinks the mask is doing in either case. I guess you could say it's keeping her from touching her face.
