43 Times People Said Something So Damn Stupid They Created A Truly Memorable Experience
What an incredible twist of fate - one of the greatest minds that humanity has ever known in its entire history remains in our memory not so much because of his ingenious theories, but because of an accidental, completely ridiculous photograph with his tongue out when he just wanted to tease the photographer.
Yes, history knows many examples when very smart and decent people accidentally blurted out something incredibly stupid - and then regretted what they said for many-many years. And then collections of such 'gems' rack up thousands of upvotes and laughable comments online - like, for example, this one in the AskReddit community, the best stories from which we bring to your attention today.

I was on a long train trip, gazing out the window, when I said to my friend: “I feel like every railroad crossing gate we’ve passed since I’ve been looking has been down… what are the odds…”

I was watching a TV show (can't remember what) with my family. There was this cute black girl who appeared in a scene and had a nice, short hairstyle I thought was cool. I said out loud "If I was black, I would have my hair like that."
I am a black guy. I meant to say girl.

In fact, people do sometimes say something stupid or shameful, for different reasons, in various circumstances. Sometimes this simply becomes a consequence of a basic misunderstanding between the interlocutors, sometimes the speaker just finds themselves in a real 'stupor' in response to an unexpected request. A classic example is when you are asked to say something funny.
Have you ever encountered anything like this? As soon as someone asks you about it, even if you have been doing standup comedy all your life, have watched all the sitcoms in the world and know all the sites with jokes by heart, you will clearly 'freeze' in a painful attempt to remember something. Don't believe me? Then come on, remember something funny right now!

Back when I was working my first job at a mcdonalds during highschool, I was made manager and one of my coworkers was a guy named Miles. We called him Kilometers because hurr durr such original joke.
Anyway, one day I was grabbing a drive thru order while also trying to stock stuff and I noticed we were out of napkins, so what I MEANT to say was "Hey Miles, can you go grab us some napkins from the back real quick?"
What I ACTUALLY said was "Hey Napkins, can you go grab us some stuff from the back real quick?"
And everyone stared....
IN SILENCE
After a few seconds, Miles realized I was looking at him when I said it and said "Did...you just call me 'Napkins'?"
My brain went over what I just said as the embarassment said in and I just answered "Yes. Yes as a matter of fact, I did."
His nickname was no longer Kilometers. He was Napkins from that day on.

One time I was in the grocery store and a couple were in front of the jar of pickles I wanted to get. They noticed me standing there and said, "Oh, are we in your way?"
They moved and I grabbed the jar. I then turned to them and said, "Thanks." Then--for some reason I'll never understand--added, "I like pickles."

If I see kids wearing a Star Wars/horse/unicorn/cat item of clothing and they/their parents look like they won't be freaked out I tell them I like said item. I'm usually wearing one or the other myself. Oh, I do it to adults too. I'm pretty non-threatening in appearance and don't push for further interaction. I pull faces at babies/toddlers when waiting in line too to make them giggle. I'm very introverted but when I'm feeling more energetic in terms of social interaction, this gives me connection without any pressure of further interaction.

Load More Replies... In addition, there are two reasons why stupid words and phrases from smart people are remembered. Firstly, because they aren't expected to do anything stupid, and against the general 'highbrow' background, these unexpected remarks stand out like Jerry Jones against the background of the current NFL free agent market. And secondly, people are prone to reflection - and the stupidity said will quite possibly torment a person with shame for years and even decades.

My manager's manager asked me to ballpark the percentage of time I was spending on each of my three projects. I confidently told him: 75% on project A, 25% on project B, and 25% on project C.

“People tend to remember negativity against an overall good background - this is a general trend,” says Irina Matveeva, a psychologist and certified NLP specialist, whom Bored Panda asked for a comment here. “For example, it's enough to compare the ratio of good and bad reviews on the page of any decent restaurant.”
"And this, again, is quite understandable. If we go to a restaurant which is considered to be great, then by default we expect great service - and take it for granted. Otherwise, this causes a clear reaction of rejection. And the adrenaline reaction to negativity encourages people to act much stronger, than positive impressions. So it turns out that stupid phrases from smart people are remembered for a long time. However, the opposite is also true," Irina summarizes.

She said he kept a straight face, handed her license back to her, said have a nice day, and got back in his car. She looked back in her mirror and saw him laughing hysterically.

Not a foot in mouth moment, but when I was being wheeled to the OR for my open heart surgery, I discovered that the surgery tech was a Monty Python fan too. As we were entering the room, we were still doing the "And get the machine that goes ping! in case the administer comes by!" skit from the Meaning of Life. The look the surgeon gave us was priceless! He told me later that I was the only patient in his entire career that came into his OR laughing. :)

I am like that...but with water... I have water munchies.' Guy pauses quizzically before asking, 'Like ice?' And I adamantly went, 'Nah, just...insatiable desire for water.' He blessed me the dignity of his silence, which was long enough for me to stumble to correction: '...I am wicked thirsty.' He nodded amiably and said, 'There she goes.'

Asked a server at a Mexican restaurant if their quesadillas had cheese in them. In front of my Mexican American grandfather. He very patiently asked me what the Spanish word for cheese was and then I realized my mistake.
Jorge Gonzalez 1 year ago
Not stupid at all. You might be surprised that in Mexico we have a decades long debate about quesadillas sin queso. (Filled with other stuff) And whether that can still be called a quesadilla. It's mainly a Mexico City Vs the rest of Mexico thing. From Wikipedia: "In the cuisine of Mexico City, quesadillas are not assumed to come with cheese unless specifically requested. This is in contrast to the rest of Mexico, where quesadillas are considered to include cheese by definition (quesadilla literally meaning "little cheesy thing" in Spanish). This cultural trend cannot be traced back to a single origin."

My daughter took a Spanish class when she was at TAMU. The professor had recently moved from the Midwest, and told the class it was a relief be teaching in a place where he didn't have to explain that quesadilla is not pronounced KWEE-sa-DILL-ah (for those who don't know, it's KAY-sa-DEE-ah).
