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
What does she even mean "in front of me"? If it was a gender neutral bathroom it would have stalls, no?
Yeah, I'm a bit confused too. Wondering if man #1 was peeing in a basin...

This isn't complicated. The guy who responded here said it better than I could. Fight for neutrality, then act violated when you get it.
i believe she haven't fought for equality and those who fight for equality don't feel violated.

Dude i once Saw 2 extremelly druken girls using the urinals in a full bathroom at a night club, no body bother them, no One made any coments, we where all there to take a " leak " and that's what we all did, most of us on our feet, both of them seated down, but no One Gave a f... ( And yes it was the men's toilet )
same. I was at a ball game in Baltimore and two girls game in to pee. no one bothered them and I it looked like most of us were more concerned making sure no one bothered them. I would not believe the same reaction would have happened in the girls rest room.
Load More Replies... I've seen this a few times, and I'm not sure I believe it's real. How could man #1 use the bathroom in front of her while she was washing her hands? Are there gender-neutral bathrooms with urinals right by the sinks? How could man #2 "see" her in there without going in? Is there a glass door? It sounds like someone trying to make parody about oversensitive feminists or unisex bathrooms.
There are many places that have urinals within eyesight of the hand washing station. And perhaps man #2 walked into the bathroom, saw the woman, and walked back outside to wait.

I need a more visual information in order to know how things happened, exactly.
USUALLY, gender-neutral bathrooms are for one at a time. At least where I live. It strikes me odd that she would unlock the door while she was still washing her hands, but very odd that someone came in on her, and proceeded to do his business while she was still there, especially if it was an opposite-gender person.
There's plenty of gender-neutral bathrooms that have multiple stalls and 1 shared space where you can wash your hands. I'm assuming she meant she was in the handwashing space and not in a stall.

Not sure if I could use a gender neutral bathroom. I would like to think I wouldn't care. I've seen men pee before no big deal. Yet, how did she know the second man waited out of respect for her. He could be a shy dude not wanting to pee in the presence of some gal he don't know.
there's also the idea that he probably wasn't aware of it being a gender neutral bathroom

Gender Neutral are not just for women and gay/others. If you want privacy so much, Stick to Womens Bathrooms.
Gender-neutral means any gender can use it. You were not violated, and you were not entitled to use the bathroom to yourself or only with your own gender.
OP felt violated because a man who needed the toilet actually used it? Nah. You can't be screaming for equality only to be offended when it's put in place. OP chose a gender neutral bathroom. Nuff said.
Perhaps she should avoid gender neutral restrooms if she's so sensitive?
The gender neutral bathrooms I have used have almost always been one person only. I did use one once that had multiple stalls. There were no urinals. The stalls had doors that completely met the floor. So we all used the toilet in perfect privacy. I did not think about it until to my surprise I realized I was washing my hands at a sink next to a man. I don't think washing ones hands is very private.
Sweetheart, in a "gender neutral" bathroom the behavior of Man #1 was far more what you should have expected than that of Man #2. Man #1 treated you as an equal (gender neutral) and Man #2 acted like a stereotypical "gentleman" and treated you like a "lady." People like you really need to think about what you want. "Gender neutral" means just what it says: you should expect to see just about anyone in there.
im always so confused by these people who make a thing of gender neutral toilets. Im from Europe, if the line in front of the ladies is too long, you use the mens. And in a lot of places, theres just A TOILET.
A. Answer to post was genius. B. OP chose to use said bathroom. C. Stalls or no stalls, facilities should be provided for all. Some people prefer urinals. But may have been a “Male” bathroom reappropriated to GN. D. As a female, and natal-woman, if I’m desperate and there’s a long queue for the ladies, I will pee in the gents. They don’t bat an eye.
I see one with an unlimited ability to think and one with a contained process unable to escape the loop of a program of me, myself, and I. One need only ask who chose to use a gender-neutral bathroom with no lock on the door. Let that be a lesson for your life. Oh, also, as you see, all men are not rapists and do not take opportunities when they present themselves, as you may have been told.
Yeah, I've never been in a gender neutral bathroom that didn't have either all stalls or the urinals separated from the rest of the room.
I's easy to understand. Nothing to do with the configuration of the bathroom which was probably discreet Man 1 was desperate for a pee. Man 2 wasn't
Easy fix, if you don't want guys peeing in front of you go to a ladies bathroom. If you consider yourself gender neutral or are not a lady, what's your problem.
I have only tried using a gender free bathroom once. I just felt really weird standing in line behind men and women I just decided to hold it in and wait until I got home hence it was an early night out that's for sure. Whilst I understand the philosophy about gender neutral bathrooms to me it's like losing just a bit more security. Maybe it's an age thing as I am in my 60's but I just refuse to use them when in a professional establishment.
What gets me about gendered restrooms is that it only matters if you're *using* the restrooms. As a female employee at a fast food joint, I was expected to clean the men's room. I asked that a male employee do that. I was told that all the male employees were cooks and I should just knock on the door first. I did and walked in on a elderly, hard of hearing gentleman in the middle of relieving himself. Thankfully, he was at the urinal right next to the sink, which blocked my view of anything below the belt. I have to imagine that was almost as uncomfortable for him as it was for me.
I've never seen a gemder neutral bathroom, but it seems like an awesome concept.
Pretty much everyone I know has a gender-neutral bathroom at home (just kidding)

We need to get rid of the shared part of shared gender-neutral bathrooms
This is idiotic and ignorant smh. “Gender neutral” means what to this person? Oh I know, he/she/it/they have no idea what that phrase actually means.
Both men were wrong. When they see an occupied "washroom" they should both wait until you are finished,
Spare me with gender neutral anything. It’s ridiculous and stupid. There I said it
It’s not a gender neutral bathroom if it has urinals. The management have it wrong
I doubt she's a conservative, but way to bring that into a conversation. As a Conservatieve/Libertarian, I could care less if someone pees in front of me, male or female. Very rarely will you hear a Conservative complain that they feel "violated". Not in this sense, anyway.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
