From the comical mishap of walking straight into a seemingly invisible glass door to the downright perplexing experience of momentarily forgetting the very word 'door' when attempting to recount the incident to a friend, it's an undeniable truth that each of us encounters moments of sheer human fallibility.
Whether it's a dumb fail that leaves us chuckling at our own expense or a brief lapse in memory that momentarily stumps us, these occurrences remind us of our shared humanity and keep us grounded in the unpredictability of everyday life. For better or worse, nowadays, all these mishaps are all over dumb posts on the internet, and all these blunders are documented for years to come.
So to make peace with our collective dullness of mind, we at Bored Panda have an ongoing series where we share pictures of the dumbest things ever said on the internet by people. (In case you haven't seen it, I recommend you check it out here and here and catch up.)
We hope this latest collection of dumb social media posts reassures you that nobody's perfect and allows you to look at your failures with a little less embarrassment. Or, at the very least, it provides you with an opportunity to distract yourself and forget about it!

We All Fail Sometimes, and Here's How to Deal With It Like a Pro
Psychotherapist Amy Morin, LCSW, who is the Editor-in-Chief of Verywell Mind and the author of the bestselling book 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do, believes that failure is something we all endure and it's important to know that there are things we can do to feel better about it.
First off, embrace your emotions. Morin highlighted that failure is often accompanied by a variety of emotions, including embarrassment, anxiety, anger, sadness, and shame, just to name a few. Those feelings are uncomfortable, and many people will do anything they can to escape the discomfort they cause but according to research, allowing yourself to feel bad is actually motivating. It can help you work harder to find better solutions so that you'll improve next time, even if we’re talking about the dumbest things ever said on the internet—they can also make you feel very underwhelmed.

Next Level Stupid
Lauren Boebert does not belong in Congress; this level of stupidity is scary.
Minimizing the Discomfort Won’t Make It Go Away Completely
Next up, we should make an effort to recognize our unhealthy attempts to reduce pain. "You might be tempted to say, 'I didn't actually want that job anyway,' but minimizing your pain won't make it go away," Morin said.
"Distracting yourself or filling the void you feel with food, drugs, or alcohol won't heal your pain either. Those things will only provide you with some temporary relief."

Not A True Catholic
I guess the Pope should take catechism classes from Ashley, as she knows so much about Catholicism.
Building Healthy Coping Skills is Vital
After that, we can start focusing on healthy coping skills instead. "Calling a friend, practicing deep breathing, taking a bubble bath, going for a walk, or playing with your pet are just a few examples of healthy ways to deal with your pain," the psychotherapist explained. We’d also add that looking up something fun, like the shortcomings of the dumb people on the internet, might also cheer you up.
"Not every coping skill works for everyone, however, so it's important to find what does for you."
How Can People Break Up For Such Stupid Reasons

It’s one thing to lack knowledge, be naive or ignorant. These are merely obstacles. However, needing some warped sense of validation by correcting people you know nothing about, or even worse, mansplaining simply because they’re a woman, is a character flaw at best, a personality disorder most likely.
They Definitely Need A Disability Advocate
People Can Be Really Stupid Sometimes
A 2016 review published in Clinical Psychology Review that looked at 46 studies examining reactions to failure found that a "more positive attributional style" was a strong factor in how resilient people were to the emotional distress caused by failure.
In other words, they saw failure as a result of something specific and external rather than something internal.

Unpopular Opinion: We Should Make Crime Illegal
"When you find yourself thinking that you're a hopeless cause or that there’s no use in trying again, reframe your thoughts," Morin suggested.
"Remind yourself of more realistic thoughts about failure such as: a) failure is a sign that I'm challenging myself to do something difficult; b) I can handle failure; c) I can learn from my failures."

If you've spent most of your life avoiding failure, it can feel really scary when it finally catches you off-guard. However, facing your fears can really improve your quality of life. Practice stepping outside your comfort zone, and over time, you'll learn that messing up isn't as bad as you thought!
Just take a look at the dumbest things ever said on the internet documented on this list—to some, they might seem like failures, but at most, they’re happy little accidents that, in the end, make us laugh heartily.
The Wrong People Have Money
The Jenners and Kardashians are infuriating, generally speaking.

Those who grow up with money have no idea what it is like to live without.
If your net worth was $1,000,000 dollars and you donated the same percentage of your wealth as Jenner did hers, you would give $5.
That’s so so messed up, when will the rich ever learn?

This is where the US is stuffed, people are angry at KJ not at the medical system that does not support those in need. Around the world serious accidents happen all the time and no employers don't pay the bills. Why should they, get your medical system fixed ffs.
Things like this make me so mad I can't see straight. I work at a facility where we treat children with cancer and while we are government funded, we still need the "little" extra money to f.e. give our patients and their parents professional psychological support to deal with the fallout of such an illness... So I sometimes go to fundraisers of the upper 10% to give speeches and explain what we do and why we need money. Then they donate and pat themselves on their shoulders to have raised a total of 100'000 for a worthy cause, when their combined networth is way up in the billions. I know 100'000 is a lot and we can do a lot with it. But still it makes me so mad. They could literally donate millions and not feel an impact on their accounts but they just don't. I just hope my pokerface holds so while I'm giving a speech my face doesn't tell what I truly think about most of them.
They will also spend millions on art work or furniture or clothes and not think twice about it.

Not sure but I think my quote might fit here. Early one beautiful foggy morning in Carmel California in the 80s, strolling and waiting for a coffee house to open we happened upon a gallery curator opening his door. He invited us in and graciously offered us coffee, we marveled at the incredible art and astounding prices. Upon leaving we thanked him told him how amazing the art was and thanked him. We told him his shop was grand but it was out of our price range, and tried to gracefully bow out. He responded saying, every night I go to bed and pray people with money get style and people with style get money. Well said.
What is sad is that people have to "raise money" for emergency brain surgery. Only in America.
saw something like this on judge steve harvy pepole had the money but dident want to use it so they ask a friend to lend them some and the person who had the money buys a new tesla worth a lot and then wouldent pay the friend back
I watched that the other day. Now has to pay the guy he borrowed from over $650 a month I think.

If I was the make up artist and was still able to make up after surgery, I would quit...well ow that I think about it, I'm sure I was fired for not being able to work.
Uhm, little question about the US healthcare system: If you need *emergency* brain surgery and you don't have 60,000 USD, do they just let you die?
How else would the world know she helped, if she just paid for the whole thing privately?
Because the whole world doesn't need to know how she spends her money. Except she posts about it so she should expect criticism!

That's how they have so much money,, they never spend theirs, once they are that famous almost everything's given to them for free..
My comment is not about the Kardashians at all can’t take reality TV especially that sort but for all the people blaming her for not paying for her make up artist FRIENDS surgery ? So everybody that she comes into the slightest bit of contact with she needs to shell out money for you? That’s definitely poverty mentality of entitlement with other peoples money.
A fool and their money are soon parted. Proof what level of fools fawn over Kylie.
She has money, just because all the brainless creatures fell for her mother's marketing. A family of nothing, mantained by morons.
This is how misinformation spreads. He was her former make up artist from a few years ago. I have no love for the Kardashian/Jenner clan. But at least tell the truth. https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2564754/kylie-jenner-defends-herself-after-fans-go-off-about-brain-surgery-donation-for-makeup-artist
Other people's problems are just that. Why should Kylie care, she probably 1099s her and doesn't even pretend to have perks and benifits.
KARDASHIANS DONT TAKE CARE OF ANYONE WHO ISNT A KARDASIAN, WE ALL KNOW THAT.
No, the make up artist would probably make a normal middle class wage.
In the meantime, a former owner of a local restaurant would spend thousands bailing her line cooks out of jail because she didn't want to have to train more line cooks.
She became billionaire by asking her fans to help her fund to become one.
That's why they have money, silly. Only us little people have to beg for help.
... sounds about right, but the wrong is in the money, and it's highly contagious, so it transfers into the person eventually. Always wondered how being frugal beyond reason fits being rich beyong reason ... I have to think about money enough now that I don't have that much, the first thoughts I'd drop immediately and permanently, if I became rich. Why care about stuff that never again will be any reason to worry? Time, it is, that then becomes the limitting factor of everything once money ain't no more.
Imagine that some people are her fans and suport her and that family... way to go humanity
Why blame her. A patient was left out on the street mid-treatment because he could not pay for the rest. This happened.
Because she was literally asking those without money to donate when she's sitting on piles of it
