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
That As*holes name is Bob Wiley. ... He replied below to Sonja --> Becky Samuel. ... He is a rich man who lies about his, "moderate income", is against a minimum wage, and says, "Fools live paycheck to paycheck" ... I'm not shy about downvoting out of touch people who's views are harmful to others.
Load More Replies...And the point they're missing: economy needs money to circulate to function. That 600 the poor man gets will be circulated, pay for goods and services and help the economy. That rich mans 600 will be used to accumulate even more money in his bank account and suck it out of circulation. This'll hurt economy and already has done so.
Or "Give $600 to a poor person & within a week a rich person will have it."
The moron who wrote this needs to be stripped bare and tossed out on to the streets and also a good blow to the head.
His name is Bob Wiley and he replied on this BP post.
Load More Replies...What also bothers me is the hyperbole. No one can reliably get 10x growth on an investment in a "few years". With typical stock market growth, it would take around 40 years to 10x the initial investment.
"FFS are we really this dense?" - *looks around* yes, yes we are. 🤷♀️🤦♀️ (/edit: not trying to insult you fellow pandas, I mean around the world ;) )
And the poor person spending the $600 puts money back into the economy right away, while the rich guy sends it overseas to hid it or sits on it. Money has to move for the economy to stay strong. A few people with most of the money is NOT good for the economy OR the people. We are heading for third world country status quickly.
Plus, spending said cash is what stimulates the economy, not hoarding money out of the system.
Exactly. Like hmm "I'm starving today.... Oh, thank you kind sir/ma'am. You have helped me greatly. I can eat, now, but... maybe I'll just let my stomach eat the remaining fat in my body while I invest this money into something high risk and non-useful for survival."
Tell 'em' all about it. Speak what is true. $ 600 to someone who is in need is a blessing.
Give $600 to a poor person who knows what it is to be poor...and he shares it with others.
Unless you were buying something, why in the f would you give anyone who was flush $600 ?
For a 5400$ return in "a few years" your rich friend is not that good at investing 🤔
Funny, the vast majority of the poor I know don't do drugs, liquor, or porn. Those cost money and they don't have money to waste like that.
Load More Replies...Your right! Americans are that dense, 8% of them then, because the 92% are s**t in their eyes, 92% treat others with respect!
If more humans were taught critical thinking at a young age, we wouldn't be in the political, racial, ethnic, and environmental mess we're in.
What a non-empathetic stance.....not to mention a particularly stupid one.
Funny thing about groceries, heat and other survival items. People without any Money are forced prioritize these if given $600. Someone is very dense.
Answer to the rhetorical question posed above: Yes, yes indeed, we really are this dense. And knowing that is why so many sharks get fat living on easy prey.
"Multiplied 10X in a few years or so" meaning that in a few years or so they will have six thousand dollars?? Not that much of a return on one's investment.
Thanks for the sane reply. The capitalist jingoists never cease so amaze.
don't think that what is what it meant. My father once told me, "Take everyonmes money away from them and give everyone £5.00. At the end of the year, there will millionaires and poor people just the same. We can't all be millionaires. some of them started with £5.00 and some inhertied it.

Poor spend the money-pay sales tax. Vendor pays income tax, & likely spends the income, paying sales tax, & that vendor likely spends the income, paying sales tax, & that vendor... Poor/middle classes stimulate the economy-if you still believe in Republican tax breaks for the rich, you're an idiot.
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.

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.
