40 Times People Encountered Someone So Blatantly Stupid, They Just Had To Share It In This Online Group
Headaches are a very common symptom when it comes to being sick. Everything from the common cold, influenza, and migraines to various infections, injuries and even more lethal stuff can cause one. Under the right (or not so right) circumstances.
But there’s one thing that causes a headache that is 100% unavoidable, because it can catch you off guard like a slap in the face with a fish that’s just been ejected from the sea. And that is stupidity.
Folks online have been sharing their biggest, most headache-inducing moments of being told something so profoundly stupid that it was immediately obvious.
And we thought it would be great to pass on the headache on to you, our dear reader, in a curated list below. Scroll down, read, enjoy it (the list, not the headache), and leave some upvotes and comments!

A mutual friend suffered a miscarriage. My coworker told her, “Everything happens for a reason. God must have wanted this to happen.”
Maybe she thought she was giving comfort to her because of her own beliefs. If she believes in her religion then she may have felt her words as comforting not demeaning. Just a thought... (My family are crazy into their Religion. I respect them for it. Though it isn't me but could see my ma saying something like this without realising the impact it could have in the wrong context)

This has been said to me so many times, I've lost count. Three miscarriages were greeted with choruses of "All things happen in God's time", "God has a different plan for you", "It will happen if God wills it", and a real gem from a Jehovah's Witness: "God called your children back because you are a sinner". I have no use for Christians.
Me too, also everyone I ever spoke to who had suffered the same. I'm still a Christian, I don't associate any more with these people than thinking because some people can even think such terrible things, I should not have use for people in general

Hand on my heart, swear to God: after my miscarriage my ex-fiancé's mother said - "well thank God you didn't give birth to a vegetable". Never spoke to her again.
MM, I am so sorry for your loss. What that sorry excuse of a woman said was reprehensible. You did the right thing by cutting her out of your life. I hope that things are better for you, and that are able to find joy in your life.

Yeah, the same reason why I have to treat 3 mth old babies with cancer 🤬 I know violence is not the answer, but these people do test me to the max! 🤬🤬🤬🤬
When my best friend lost her baby at childbirth, multiple "kind, loving, Christian, family-minded" women couldn't WAIT to "console" her. She heard all of the "God wanted another angel" b******t. She heard about "GoD'z SpEsHuL pLan" multiple times. And she had some a*****e offer to pray with her after telling her, "Well, the good thing is, it's not like it was a REAL baby that you'd been raising yet." Yes, this same b***h goes off about the evils of abortion, but my friend's infant's death "wasn't a REAL baby." Keep your God/Jesus b******t away from the rest of us, effing insensitive clowns.

Sounds like something my mother-in-law would say. She once started a sentence with "not to minimize your loss". This was after my 25 year old son had died (her step-grandson). She was comparing the loss of her abusive husband who had lived long enough to see grandchildren. My son died on his honeymoon.
I gave up going to a building for my religious practices when a 'friend ' told me on mother's day (while holding her was to be same age child as the one I miscarried) that I should really think about them (the dead child that I thought of every second) today and what I did. To them. Idk if she understood that a miscarriage is different from an abortion.
That's so cruel! To say that about your baby. 😲 No wonder you left that toxic place!! Who need to be social with people that think that's an acceptable expression of faith. 🤬 Hope you have good people around you now, that can give you the love and support you need. ❤️
Load More Replies... It's like the saying: "God doesn't give you more then you can handle". Yes, he does. Life can be so unfair and sometimes, even though it sucks and you did all things correct and are a good person, that unfairness happens to you. Everything isn't karma or God testing your faith.
Someone told me that when I was 7 years old, being sexually abused regularly by two different men, relentlessly bullied at school, and suicidal. Telling me God did this to me to test me, or because I was supposed to "handle" it was one of the most sadistic things, and was my first step to deconversion. Do NOT tell people, especially kids, this. It's not in any way helpful.
Load More Replies... If god wanted that baby to not be born, why did he let the mom get pregnant in the first place? And if he's so cool with just spontaneously aborting babies, what's the issue with medically induced abortions? Can't have it both ways.
If you read the bible, you know God is 100% okay with killing innocent babies. LOTS of them.

That’s someone trying to say something to make someone feel better but sometimes people just should say nothing because it would be better :)
Exactly. Even saying "sorry" can offend someone in grievance. Often times people just want space and not have attention on them.

If losing my baby was something "god" wanted to happen then that's just even more reason for me to believe that f****r in the sky is a b******t myth and if "he" is real, then I have some choice words for said f****r.
Until they've experienced it they'll never understand the heartbreak and emotional toll it takes on you when these kind of things happen. Sadly too many people suffer from diarrhea of the mouth.
if gods pro life how the f**k did that happen??? the utter disrespect in some people 🙄
My father said that to me the day of having a D&C from my baby that had passed 2 months before. I wasn't having a spontaneous abortion( the actual term for the active miscarriage) and my father said that bullsh:t to me within hours...didn't talk to him for 4 months.
And from the point forward, every stubbed toe or paper cut or speeding ticket. "God must have wanted that to happen to you."
What do you say to someone in this situation? And none this happened to a few people and I just tell them I'm sorry for the lost and if they need to talk I'm there. Is that a good response or what?
That is perfectly fine to say. The no no's are "everything happens for a reason", "God wanted another angel", "it's Gods plan", "it's not the right time"etc etc.

With every loss my MIL insists its because God knows that we dont deserve children. 4 angels and I have lost the strength to try again
I am terribly sorry for your pain. It can feel unbearable. And please, no offense, but your MIL sounds like a heartless b***h.

Just because they take comfort in that belief does not mean others find it comforting at all. In fact it makes most people turn away from religion thinking pain is bestowed on them for "good reason". Keep your beliefs to yourself and your cult group.
When my triplet son's died due to being premature. At their funeral my ex-wife's aunt told me "that's why you don't use fertility drugs and just leave it to God"... We didn't use fertility drugs...
Good grief. Some people have no damn sense. I'm very sorry for your loss.
Load More Replies... This is sad and stupid. People can really just eat the whole freaking foot huh?!
I was told something similar by a grief counsellor when I lost my sister last year and I thought it was one of the most outrageously insensitive things I'd ever heard. Saying it to someone who has just lost their child raises it to a whole new level of awful.
I think a lot of people get embarrassed and just don't know what to say when faced with a tragedy and come out with platitudes they think will console, which inevitably never do. It's either that or avoiding the issue. I don't think she was a b**ch. I think she was embarrassed and misguided. Society tends to treat tragedy as something shameful, not to be spoken about, if it was more open people might learn how to react better.
It's an idiotic thing to say, but at least the person thought they were saying something helpful. Guys handle this differently though, my best friend said "I'm sorry, that sucks" and I said "I know" and then we had a few beers. I'm glad we don't discus feelings.
Whenever I hear anyone say something bad is "god's will" I immediately say, "Your god is a real a$$h013, y'know." Nobody ever argues back.
I hate "everything happens for a reason." What was the higher reason for the Holocaust and every other incredibly sh*tty things humans have done to each other?
I hate it too. Of course everything happens for a reason! Does that mean the "reason" was good, just, humane, or that the consequences will be any of those things? No. "That's the way it is" is another variation of that sentiment and I dislike it just as much.
Load More Replies... If you think your god "has reasons" to make women suffer, miscarriages, your god is an a*****e. See also: cancer, childhood diseases, accidents, poverty....
Just because something might happen for a reason (be it sky magic or more specifically finite) doesn’t nullify pain, suffering or trauma. Even if there was a god working in mysterious ways, this woman was still grieving. Being told an apparent “why” doesn’t change that.
When a family tragedy happened, someone from the Catholic Church told me, God must have wanted it this way. Wasn't particularly religious before that, but now, can't get me near a church, unless a very, very beloved person passes.
And as we speak, this same line is being used by the AG in Texas about the slaughter of 10-year-olds in Uvalde.
This happened to me too!! I had a series of recurrent miscarriages and one of my (former) colleagues told me after my first one that god had a plan and after my seventh one that I must be a terrible person to have been punished so many times by god.
Where is she? I want to slap her for you! I’m so sorry for your loss.
Yeah, this is not only unbiblical it is also heartless. I would want to punch her too (not really, but kind of).
A friend of mine's brother was shot and killed and a coworker said to her, "now he's with God so that's a good thing." I despise when people use their own personal religious preferences as a means to comfort people to make themselves feel like better [insert religious affiliation here]. Nothing pisses me off more than when someone comes to me at a funeral or in a hospital and tells me to pray or something. You're pushing your beliefs on me at a time where I'm dealing with tragedy. Even when they know you have a different faith or are an atheist (especially if your an atheist), they don't care...they have to push their own c**p on you. I want to believe they mean well but it's such an insensitive thing to do that it's hard to believe. It just comes off as selfish.
stop blaming God for the works of the devil... your theology will improve if you do this...
I want to thank Dr Ben a very powerful spell caster who help me to bring my husband back to me, few month ago i have a serious problem with my husband, to the extend that he left the house, and he started dating another woman and he stayed with the woman, i tried all i can to bring him back, but all my effort was useless until the day my friend came to my house and i told her every thing that had happened between me and my husband, then she told me of a powerful spell caster who help her when she was in the same problem I then contact Dr Ben and told him every thing and he told me not to worry my self again that my husband will come back to me after he has cast a spell on him, i thought it was a joke, after he had finish casting the spell, he told me that he had just finish casting the spell, to my greatest surprise within 48 hours, my husband really came back begging me to forgive him, if you need his help you can contact him with via email: drbenclearsolutions@gmail.com or add him up
"I don't want to take the vaccine it will make me sterile."

"Why should I be responsible for my son's late fees?"
I dunno, lady. Maybe because he's 12 and can't get a job yet? Also there's the matter of the letter you and he signed when he got his library card that says you're responsible for any fines on the account, as his parent or legal guardian. Just a shot in the dark.
I have seizures and I had somebody ask me if they were contagious. My cousin was right next to me and elbowed me and whispered for me to start coughing. By the way, my cousin is blind and when I started coughing she chucked her cane behind her fake panicking that she suddenly couldn’t see and the guy ran away so he wouldn't “catch the seizures”. My cousin busted out laughing when she heard him run off saying she wished she could see his reaction and that it must have been priceless. I explained what it looked like to her and she fell onto the ground laughing. She’s just as evil too when people ask her dumb questions about her being blind as she had someone ask her today if it was deadly even though she was born blind.

Actually a doctor. So hear me out.
September 18th 2021, my mother unfortunately passed away. Her and I both had Covid, as we lived together and unfortunately her body couldn’t handle it. This lead to anxiety, panic attacks, stress, and guilt. I felt like it was my fault for my mother's [passing]. Anyway, to the doctor. I decided in December that I couldn’t go on the way I was. I was never leaving my boyfriend's house. I chose to go to therapy in seek of some help with my issues.
When I got an intake appointment, I had to see a doctor there to prescribe, what I expected to be an antidepressant. The moment I sat down, I already had a weird vibe from him. He was quiet, his tone was dull. We started going over my charts and why I was there, etc. and I told him everything he needed to know. I told him about my guilt, and a prior issue I had even before my mother's [passing]. I have a phobia of vomiting, so I brought it up. This doctor told me to just “throw up”, and i would no longer be afraid. He then proceeded to say that I was a very anxious person who is “on the spectrum”. and finally, the KICKER, he told me all my loved ones would go to hell.
Needless to say, I walked out of there sobbing my eyes out. I called the place to file a complaint and thankfully—haven’t seen that man since.
One of my ex-coworkers was convinced that the sun and the moon were the same thing. He thought it turned around at night and became the moon. He was astonished one morning when I pointed to the moon in broad daylight. I thought he was going to have a panic attack. Luckily, we were sharing a joint behind the warehouse and he calmed down a bit. He still didn’t fully understand and kept glancing at the sky for the rest of our shift.
Moonlight is just the afterglow after they turn the sun off for the night.

My ex’s brother in full confidence said lava was 2 words. Tried to explain its 2 syllables, not words. I was the idiot apparently.
For context, we were watching a Phineas and Ferb movie they were all on a chain over lava.

He was/is notorious for having little to no common sense.

Years ago, I was living in South Dakota and went to Michigan to visit family for Christmas.
My aunt asked me if the cold weather in Michigan was bothering me. I confusingly told her that the weather in South Dakota is about the same, if not colder. She was shocked and said she didn't remember seeing any cold spells on the weather channel, in the South.
That's when it dawned on me that she thought South Dakota was in the south part of the US because it has the word "south" as part of the name.
My whole view of her shattered at that moment.

Bit of a story but many a year ago I was eating with my now ex. It was 2am, and an older lady came into the place and asked if someone can give her a ride home, her car had broken down, she worked in the plaza and showed us her work ID, so we gave her a ride, wasn't very far. No idea how the conversation ended up about jurassic Park but it did. She said she took her kids to see it when it came out and one of them asked "how do they keep the dinosaurs from running out of the view of the camera?" We all laughed and she said "you believed he asked that???" My ex said "idk maybe they have people off camera making sure they stay in the shot?" Both look at my ex in complete disbelief. She didn't understand why we were shocked until I said "they were CGI tiff..." the sudden realization on her face was incredible.
Someone once tried to convince me that my coat makes me gay.
I heard this conversation a few days ago in Spanish class
Girl: dude, you keep eating my food, at this point it's gluttony
Boy: gluttony? That sounds like algebra....
Is that algebra?
Girl: *trying not to lose her mind* dude, context clues, is your brain made of one brain cell?
Boy: wait.... is it????
Something about how heating food in microwaves is really bad for your health, because they make food radioactive, so you shouldn't use them. The guy was also a hard [illegal substance] addict...
I was in an argument with someone. I cannot remember the contents of the argument. But I stopped when he mentioned his IQ and said to me "I'm right because I'm confident I am right." realized right there it was not worth the frustration of it because I'm not getting through to him.
The earth really is flat, you see it's about density.

“Don’t run outside in the winter, your lungs will crystallize. It’s not good for you.” Said while smoking a cigarette.
Yes, the WATER in your lungs can crystallize and destroy your cells at very low temperatures, but I did some reading and sports doctors say there’s no chance of this happening above -50C/-68F. It was the sanctimonious dismissal of running as a healthy activity combined with the idea of a lung somehow crystallizing (?) that sealed the deal for me on this one.

Former coworker bragged that wine was on sale for 10% off at a local store, so she bought three bottles and saved 30%. We tried to explain to her that it doesn't work that way, but she insisted that it did "for her." Finally one of us said, "Then why didn't you buy ten bottles and get it for free?"
Well, she saved 30 % out of the price of one bottle. If she had bought 10 bottles, she would have gotten 100 % off of ONE bottle.

Anecdotally, I find that 1 in 2 person you take the time to know, may very well be an idiot.
Girlfriend's husband said "can't take a picture of newborn, you will make them blind" (I guess all of us that have a newborn pic are blind) 2nd idiot comment "no male ob-gyns because they will want to have sex when they see female genitals" SIL- " If you get a blood clot in your leg, it can't travel to your lungs, that means you have covid" 2nd from SIL- "if you are 200 miles from home and I am 100 miles away, you will make it sooner because you started out closer to the state" I was 10 miles from Minnesota and she was 100. But I was 200 miles from the final destination. Friend "That kid sticking his tongue on the frozen pole in Christmas Story was fake. No one can get stuck. Oh boy, did I have FUN with that one!!

I got one for ya. Fifth grade. Everyone was stupid, we were fifth graders after all. But there were definitely some people that were the stupidest of the stupid. Music teacher asked me to pick up the instruments from the class to clean up. I agreed (what else was I gonna do?) and everything went smoothly until Abby (not her real name) was next. I tried to pick up her instrument, she pulled back, I asked if she had heard the instructions, she said yes, I said ok so give me the instrument please, she SLAPPED ME, and I’m still bewildered about how those levels of ignorance can come about.

These are my favorites. 1. At a hospital checkup with my son's mother when she was pregnant. The nurses ask her a bunch of background questions. Then are you currently in an abusive relationship?" Lol. I immediately started laughing. They glare at me. I say "Do you think it's smart to ask that with the guy still in the room"? 2. Chatting with a female friend about food and recipes. I tell her I like to go shopping at the Asian market when I get the chance. She asks me what an "Asian market" is. I howl laughing, and ask which part of Asian+market is confusing. She got upset that I was treating her dumb. she is a teacher's assistant.
You're kind of a d**k about the Asian market. I get that the word is somewhat self explanatory, but if you've never been to one, I could see how you would wonder what exactly it is. But no matter what laughing at someone else's lack of knowledge and asking a question to clarify makes you a loser. I can't believe you are proud of "howling laughing" at someone else's lack of knowledge. I could understand a quick chuckle, but belittling someone over it is just pathetic.

Girlfriend's husband said "can't take a picture of newborn, you will make them blind" (I guess all of us that have a newborn pic are blind) 2nd idiot comment "no male ob-gyns because they will want to have sex when they see female genitals" SIL- " If you get a blood clot in your leg, it can't travel to your lungs, that means you have covid" 2nd from SIL- "if you are 200 miles from home and I am 100 miles away, you will make it sooner because you started out closer to the state" I was 10 miles from Minnesota and she was 100. But I was 200 miles from the final destination. Friend "That kid sticking his tongue on the frozen pole in Christmas Story was fake. No one can get stuck. Oh boy, did I have FUN with that one!! Mother - I don't know how to cook this. Do you have a recipe book? Yes, but I don't agree with the temp they recommend or how long it should stay in the oven...another burnt dinner...
I got one for ya. Fifth grade. Everyone was stupid, we were fifth graders after all. But there were definitely some people that were the stupidest of the stupid. Music teacher asked me to pick up the instruments from the class to clean up. I agreed (what else was I gonna do?) and everything went smoothly until Abby (not her real name) was next. I tried to pick up her instrument, she pulled back, I asked if she had heard the instructions, she said yes, I said ok so give me the instrument please, she SLAPPED ME, and I’m still bewildered about how those levels of ignorance can come about.
I was standing in my driveway with my cousin's wife, under a HUGE oak tree and acorns were falling and rolling down the driveway. She literally stops mid conversation and yells "where do these things(acorns) keep coming from?" I just blinked at her and said "The sky chicken little"
These are my favorites. 1. At a hospital checkup with my son's mother when she was pregnant. The nurses ask her a bunch of background questions. Then are you currently in an abusive relationship?" Lol. I immediately started laughing. They glare at me. I say "Do you think it's smart to ask that with the guy still in the room"? 2. Chatting with a female friend about food and recipes. I tell her I like to go shopping at the Asian market when I get the chance. She asks me what an "Asian market" is. I howl laughing, and ask which part of Asian+market is confusing. She got upset that I was treating her dumb. she is a teacher's assistant.
You're kind of a d**k about the Asian market. I get that the word is somewhat self explanatory, but if you've never been to one, I could see how you would wonder what exactly it is. But no matter what laughing at someone else's lack of knowledge and asking a question to clarify makes you a loser. I can't believe you are proud of "howling laughing" at someone else's lack of knowledge. I could understand a quick chuckle, but belittling someone over it is just pathetic.
