No matter how successful, cool or elegant we are, we all have our days or brief moments when our common sense and dignity bid their farewell to us. Blame it on your brain having a fart, on Mercury in retrograde, on waking up on the wrong foot, it doesn’t change anything.
Sometimes we are all clueless, hilariously naive, and shamelessly embarrassing. So if you just did or said something stupid, we want to give you a big pat on the shoulder and tell you that you are not alone.
Below we wrapped up the list of images featuring people lost in the cloud of their brain farts, so scroll down. Also, be sure to check out more clueless people caught in action in Bored Panda’s previous features here and here.

When You Don't Even Know What You're Fighting For
That's 668 People Who Lack Critical Thinking
Scientific Name = Poison
While we can’t tell the reason that made these people act they way they did as seen in the images shared in this post, we can all agree on the obvious: it’s that humans are sometimes bold and unreasonable.
Luckily, the internet is a perfect place to celebrate these funny occasions. Just like the miscellaneous corner of Reddit known as the “What Could Go Wrong” community, which has been demonstrating examples of “what not to do” since 2013.

Now Your Own Decisions Belong To A Man You Haven't Met
I'll be happy to pretend to be a fiancé/husband working abroad and do a video call giving my consent to anyone having this problem.
Previously, we spoke with the creator of what is now a Reddit powerhouse that boasts 7.2 million members. The creator who goes by the nickname Peanutbuttered told us a while back that in a perfect world, r/whatcouldgowrong wouldn’t exist because people would know what is smart to attempt and what isn’t. “But since that’s not the case, at least, we hope the subreddit can help to prevent an injury or save a life."
“My hope is that people who are thinking of attempting a stupid stunt will rethink their decision or maybe recall a post they saw on /r/whatcouldgowrong. Then they’ll think, 'maybe I should not do this,'” the redditor said.

I Mean, How Stupid Can People Be?
But bold actions we all sometimes do without thinking twice about them may have to do with our lack of sense of actions and consequences. This may be deliberate or not, since some people struggle to control their impulsivity.
Another reason may be the fact that we live in the age of instant gratification. From social media to online shopping, the ability to get what we want with the click of a button has eliminated the need for long-term planning and consideration of the potential consequences of our actions.
Our culture has become one of immediacy, where people are more concerned with the short-term gratification of their desires than with the long-term consequences.

America Gonna Need Credit For Something People From Other Countries Did
I live in Texas and still can't forgive out why this nut job still keeps getting elected....

I’m from Texas. We call Ted Cruz Puro Pinche Pedo… Pure Effing Bull****
It's stunning how many of these clueless messages are from American Republicans. 5 so far and I'm not even done scrolling here. .
Oh we Americans get "treated" to this idiocy all the damn time.

Well, not everything originating in Canada is a good thing. Example: Ted Cruz.
Ted should just give up. He never wins. He always gets owned, because he's still the same idiot he was when he was 8 and trying to impress girls by punching them in the arm and running away.
Hey Ted. Who opposed everything having to do with getting Americans vaccinated and wearing masks? That would be you, jerkface!
Ted Cruz reminds me of that saying: Insanity Is Doing the Same Thing Over and Over Again and Expecting Different Results.
Ted thinks that just because America helped fund the development of one of the vaccines that America actually invented the vaccine itself. Typical American conservative hubris.
Load More Replies... Cruz is the embodiment of the old joke that goes- He puts his foot in his mouth so often that he developed Athlete's Tongue.
I’m no Ted fan but actually the science behind the vaccine was dreamt up in the German labs. But labs in Kalamazoo MI and Belgium were actually where it was discovered how to safely manufacture the vaccine and mass produce it so fact check ;)
I think many fail to grasp Ted's point. Canada offered it for free because they weren't paying for it. And to be more specific about development, mRNA vaccines were being developed in the early 1950's in the US and France, and not by immigrants. The iteration of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine was actually developed in the 1990's in the US. Their published development studies actually showed an issue with the PEG suspension as causing PEG pooling in organs that could lead to adverse reactions such as myocarditus and pericarditis. It was also noted that the effectiveness of such a vaccine wanes after a few weeks. Due to these issues, the technology was abandoned for development. Flash forward to Covid era and the same company resurrected the technology and implemented it into their Covid vaccine, issues be damned. And while lauded over this experimental vaccine, it was a dangerous experiment in global panic having induced a door of opportunity for Big Pharma. Human guinea pigs.
I am sure old Ted hoped it was Mexico to give him an excuse to go there again
Why a scientologist is allowed to fly our most expensive jets is beyond me.
Dr. Kariko, native of Hungary.The Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine received FDA approval in August 2021, and the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine has been authorized by the FDA for emergency use. Karikó is a senior vice president at BioNTech and an adjunct professor of Neurosurgery at the University of Pennsylvania. She joined the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania in 1989 and began collaborating with Weissman in 1997.
That's our Teddy. He never misses an opportunity to sound like a moron.
And one of the vaccines was made in Oxford UK. Oxford the City that saved the world.
I didn't know that. I knew somewhere in the back of my mind that Pfizer is a German company but assumed that it was developed in the US. My bad.
What is Cancun Ted would be a more appropriate question.
Load More Replies... Ted always goes into these things thinking he's going to own the libs, and generally winds up embarrassing himself
Who cares who developed it? It should be free (or at least low cost) regardless.
Rafael, er, Ted Cruz, was born in Canada, so this was very important to him I guess.
I'm just embarrassed as a latino that we have one more idiot representing us in a negative way, the difference with this one is he is supposedely educated!
Cancun Ted! What a gigantic idiot. He fits in very well with the repuke party.
Parenting Can Be Tough At Times
Do You Consider This A Human Being?
This lack of foresight has led to a number of problems, both for individuals and society as a whole. For individuals, it has resulted in a lack of financial planning, leading to debt and overspending. It has also led to a lack of responsibility when it comes to personal health and safety, resulting in an increase in reckless behavior and risky activities.
There's A Thin Line Between Confidence And Stupidity And This Guy's Way Over That Line
I was working on a commercial (makeup artist) and we were filming outside all day. I was walking around putting sunscreen on all of the actors and one flat out refused it and said that he never uses it and never burns. Guy ended up frying and blistering and getting heatstroke. Hopefully he learned from that.

I have literally had a girl come sit on my lap, and when walking away giving my hand a gentle pull.... yep, still didn't get it. yay for awkward teenage years.
At Least He’s Cleaning It
On a larger scale, this lack of consideration for the consequences of our actions has led to environmental degradation and climate change. We have failed to take the long-term view and instead have focused on short-term gains, leading to a situation where we are now facing the consequences of our actions.

This is why people need school. Otherwise moody fools like this who get all of their knowledge from Hollywood will bloom, and more posts like this that try to sound cool will appear. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to get some food. (Ok I’ll stop now)

And HE said unto THEM, go ye out into the world...'!

Clueless Karen
I do want to specify that the employee knew English. He was trying his best to get his message across. It’s just that he spoke in broken English, which the woman couldn’t understand. But everyone else in the vicinity, including myself, could.
Conversely, i know of a lady who, on whirlwind tour of Europe and stressed by language difficulties, one day finding herself in a large seemingly-public building called out 'DOES ANYONE HERE SPEAK ENGLISH?'. After a stunned silence, a well-modulated voice replied 'madam, this IS the Bank of England'.

"It's The West"
You would think r/NewsWithJingjing is a troll subreddit, but you would be wrong. It's a cesspool blending different types of nazi supporters, where -for some weird combination of factors- russian and chinese nationalists regularly come to agree on the stupidest, most idiotic talking points from regime propaganda.
