Social media has become an inseparable part of modern life, with more than half of the world’s population actively using it. That means roughly 5 billion people are free to post whatever comes to mind, at any given time. While this flood of content often brings entertainment, valuable information, and thought-provoking discussions, it also results in moments that make you wonder how some people manage to function daily.
Whether it’s blatant misinformation, a complete lack of common sense, or arguments that make your brain hurt, there’s no shortage of absurdity online. It’s almost like some people need their internet privileges revoked for the greater good.
Fortunately, there’s an entire online community dedicated to calling out these moments of foolishness. The Facepalm subreddit boasts a massive following of over 8.2 million members, all committed to highlighting the most laughable lapses in logic, reasoning, and basic awareness. According to the group, bigotry is not tolerated, but pointing out sheer stupidity is more than welcome.
We’ve gathered some of the most eye-rolling, cringe-inducing, and downright embarrassing examples of human cluelessness from the subreddit. Get ready to lose a few brain cells as you scroll through these absolute gems.
