50 Times Humanity Made Us Strongly Want To Facepalm
Oh, the humanity!
How often do you find yourself saying that when looking through some truly stunning Internet moments? How can people be so clueless?
We’ve found 50 pieces of photo evidence that will make you wonder how our species survives.
Some will make you laugh, some might make you cry, but they’ll all make you facepalm.
1. Fake money accepted here
Even Benjamin Franklin looks like he knows this is the fakest $100 bill ever. After all, it does say “copy” in big letters.
2. No one shows up for online class
We’re not sure what this professor was thinking, but he or she should have taken second to check the paperwork before sending out an e-mail chastising students for not showing up to a class that turned out to be online.
We can’t help but wonder what classroom the professor went to and why.
3. No chemistry
This person’s sense of humor is worse than their knowledge of chemistry terms.
4. When you think English is just an American language
Sigh. Yes, the British spell some words differently.
It’s the height of ignorance to assume a word is wrong just becuase that’s not the way you tend to spell it.
5. Subtle surprise
Well that surprise didn’t work out well. To be fair, the box itself seems pretty subtle.
6. Biblical ignorance
Plenty of people take scripture out of context, but everyone is missing the point here (as well as a good translation – in this case the word can also mean “disaster” or “darkness”). God allows evil, but it’s not exactly something you can create.
7. Just wait until she lands!
If you’re flying to Japan, you should probably expect to see some Asian people. And you should probably get used to it.
8. Failed spelling and geography
We can’t even choose the worst part here. The spelling? The “correction”?
9. Knock knock, no one’s home
Do you think the joke would have been as funny as this person’s clueless reaction? We’ll never know.
10. Snowflakes are right
Aside from the stupidity of calling someone a “snowflake,” we’re marveling at how a person can make fun of people who actually read the book when she clearly did not.
11. Math whiz
Somehow, this genius thinks age differences multiply over time.
12. You’re stuck in ego, not traffic
Just own up to taking a selfie because you think you look good. Don’t pretend you’re stuck in traffic when your sunglasses show the road ahead of you is empty.
And try not to take selfies while driving unless you think you’ll look good dead.
13. Anti-vaxxer “logic”
Apparently, this woman thinks that vaccinating a child made them more likely to get hit by a car.
You just can’t make this stuff up.
14. You got catfished
Baby shark, catfish – what’s the difference when the whole point is to look like an Instagram hero?
15. Crunchy eggs
Ok, we have to admit that hard-boiled eggs probably are disgusting if you’re too clueless to peel them.
16. Killing with kindness
We can only hope naming the knife kindness is not part of his defense strategy in court.
17. Off track
Hey Amtrak, we get the sentiment, but we’d really like you to stay on track.
18. AAA x 2
When AAA needs to call AAA you know it’s just one of those days.
19. What a hero
Since when does bravery ever come in the form of eating a grilled cheese?
20. Empty threat
Are they suggesting we create some more criminals so their prison can thrive? Pass.
21. Do your research
Sometimes you just want to insult someone and you’re so intent on doing it that you don’t bother to make sure it’s accurate.
22. A little more plastic
Apparently no one judged a book by its cover well enough to get the point of the story here.
23. Jesus also died
There are definitely better examples she could have used.
24. Correlation or causation
That’s just a terrible defense for a terrible crime.
25. Color challenged
Make room on the color wheel for “dark white”!
26. So rude
Was this a nasty prank or was the delivery person that clueless?
27. How to talk to the blind
We love that this was posted to the subreddit /NoStupidQuestions.
Way to prove that there’s at least one stupid question!
28. Photo faux pas
Someone needed to spend some more time on this Google image search.
29. Headshots
Great headshots, but unless you want your insurance to fix your face, they’re really going to need photos of the car instead.
30. HR fail
This might explain why they didn’t get many applications.
31. Travel is a luxury
Yes, people who travel get a lot out of it, but the truth is that not everyone can afford to do it.
32. Keep your measles to yourself
Is a basketball game really a good enough reason to make yourself a public health menace?
33. Help me prove my false point
There’s a reason you can’t find evidence.
34. Why doesn’t my code work?
It’s never a good idea to post your code online unless you’ve already used it.
35. Trolling the Flat Earthers
I guess all those observations of Earth are just…fake?
36. Thanks, Obama
It’s true, Obama was never in office during 9/11. But it’s probably because he wasn’t president yet.
37. Speak English!
Apparently, wherever this person goes is considered American territory.
38. Stomach pain
Well, on the bright side it sounds like she had a mostly uneventful pregnancy.
39. Can anyone help make my shoplifting easier?
There’s a reason they put those tags on. Normally they’re full of ink, so she’s in for a big surprise when she tries to break it off.
40. History fail
This is so far beyond a fail that we worry about the intellect of students who are taught from this “textbook.”
41. God has a plan
Hopefully, God also has a plan to make her a better driver. 7 accidents is probably no accident.
42. Please reschedule this natural phenomenon
It’s a real bummer when the sun won’t reschedule its eclipse for your convenience.
43. They might be on to something
Our guess is that yes, China is putting their submarines underwater.
44. Llamathrust
29% of audience members were just being hilariously mean.
45. Don’t do Pez
On the bright side, the only high she needs to be worried about is a sugar high.
46. What was your last meal
Clearly this person does not understand the concept of death.
47. Soda will help
Is there no better way to help raise money for diabetes than helping to cause more cases?
48. Hidden key
We think the key is under the doormat.
At this point, why not just leave it right in the lock?
49. Lion pride
But is his sister a lion too?
50. When life gives you lemons
Try not to squeeze them in your eye.
