children

There's no denying the fact that kids can oftentimes just be plain old weird and dumb. Harsh, but inarguably true. Their brains seem to operate at a different frequency, and slowly, maybe surely, as they get older they fall back in line with the rest of the way the world thinks. Before that though, we all get to witness hilarious moments of completely, strikingly clueless "kid logic." 

Some baby names are far worse than others. You might've encountered a baby name out in the wild that left you mystified, troubled, helplessly confused. It's as if the parents had a terrible lapse in judgement, and for whatever reason decided to curse their poor kid with a name that would go on to haunt them into their later years. Hopefully none of these ring a bell. For a similar AskReddit thread check out some dumb baby names that parents (somehow) had to be talked out of. 

It's no question that kids are stupid and weird. They're horrible liars, they don't know how to read, they lack basic coordination skills and a lot of them look like they've never worked a day in their life. From sharpie-ing the dog to attempting to eat wax fruit, there's more than enough proof that kids are stupid and weird.

We all want to be seen as gracious, but what happens when the things were are given just suck? Sure, you don't want to destroy the confidence of a child, but also who gives someone terrible cake made by a child and expects them to like it? When is a gesture worth lying for? At the same time, is it childish to demand equal cake treatment? For a cake related work drama, here's an office who fought back when a Karen threw away an expensive cake.

Oh, the unparalleled panic of losing your kid at the store. It's common knowledge that kids are weird and dumb, and as it stands they shouldn't be trusted. Look away for a second and they're off trying to drink toilet water or join a new family. Sure, we eventually grow to resent the illogical things our parents do, but for a real long time it's you being the idiot.

Kids are weird stupid people, and they have no excuse. Okay, they have one excuse and it's that their small, dumb minds aren't fully developed and they have no idea how the world works. As good as an excuse that is, it doesn't take away from the fact that there's too much proof kids are weird and dumb.

There's no denying the fact that many children don't seem to possess filters. This can manifest in hilarious scenarios where you have kids unintentionally embarrassing their parents or other adults in the room beyond belief. You might've fallen victim to such an occurrence yourself at one point or another. Check out some more examples of kids being weird and dumb over here. 

These moments where kids were agents of full on chaos/staged ridiculous temper tantrums over the silliest of matters might be enough to convince some folks out there that they are in fact not ready to have kids. Parenting's clearly a profound emotional rollercoaster that comes with many speed bumps, and a steady procession of curveballs. You're going to have to grow very accustomed to things like sleep deprivation, and manage to maintain nothing short of a saintly patience along the way. With that being said, adults certainly aren't immune to having temper tantrums of their own. Check out some of those over here. 

Parenting is a challenge. If you don't have a kid yourself, parents will be very willing to tell you that it's a full time job making sure they stay safe, get fed, get enough sleep and learn something every once in a while. Of course parenting is full of ungraceful moments. That's why there are parenting memes for all the exhausted adults.

There's no getting around the fact that children are just plain old strange. They're these miniature human beings that have an uncanny knack for spewing out wildly unexpected sentiments at a moment's notice. Naturally, some kids are more devious than others. Maybe you were one of those kids yourself. Hard pressed to follow the rules that the rest of society put in place, and told you to abide by. Maybe you were just channeling that oppositional energy from a young age, and it ended up getting you in a whole lot of trouble. If that's the case, you probably had your work cut out for you as you navigated the ins and outs of school. Oh, school. A time ripe for learning about the consequences of not following the rules. Maybe that rule breaking behavior ended up manifesting in you dishing out all kinds of creative and ridiculous insults to those around you.

This particular AskReddit thread honors the most outlandish and humorous insults that kids ended up coming up with. If you're an adult on the receiving end of one of these insults, hopefully you didn't take the insult seriously for a second, and instead appreciated that kid's ability to churn out some banter that you'd never heard before. Banter can certainly be fun if we allow ourselves to drop our guards, and just play along with it. Of course there are lines that shouldn't be crossed, and that can end up being the time that kids are better educated on what they really shouldn't be saying to other members of society.

You don't want to end up growing up to be one of those adults with a nasty head on their shoulders, a misplaced moral compass, and a daunting inability to treat those around you with a sliver of respect. As with all matters of life, there's a strange balance to these things. We love a good roast or creative insult here. Especially when you get the ruthless silver tongued wordsmiths in the comments section that are ready to stir up all kinds of trouble. The YouTube comments section is really its own kind of comedy goldmine. You've got to love the internet for what it provides there. It can be this playground of sorts where everyone goes to work at trying out their most absurd insults. You just don't want to take things too far. Sometimes, you can get lost in the fun of a back and forth with another online user and end up saying something that you ultimately come to regret. But anyways, all ramblings about the wild realm of online banter aside, these kids certainly brought their A game for when it came to surprising folks around them with unexpected words of sheer ruthlessness. If anything, we'd have loved to been able to read more about the fallout from some of the more piercing insults. It really just boils down to whoever ends up receiving that insult. It'd sure be nice if everyone in the world had a great sense of humor, but thus is not always the case.

This woman moved into a new home and after meeting her new neighbor and determining that there'd be some loud kids stirring up all kinds of noise, she let the mom know that she'd probably just proactively try to drown out that noise with some sweet tunes. Apparently, the mom didn't take too kindly too this. It could be viewed as a potentially tough call on whether or not the music blaster's in the wrong. On the one hand, nobody wants to hear a relentless onslaught of kids being crazy loud, but the music might also only make the situation that much worse. You be the judge though, who's in the wrong here? 

While kids have garnered plenty of a reputation for being flat out silly and dumb, they can also get devilishly inventive when faced with the possibility of getting in trouble for a continued pattern of unacceptable behavior. This toddler decided to dip into their word bank and pull out a new word for the explicit purpose of being able to cuss at their parent without having to actually "swear." 

If you had like a coworker who was a child, you'd never get anything done. We know that from our own experiences as children that kids are weird and dumb. Sure, they're still learning that life makes no damn sense, but that doesn't detract from the fact that kids are strange and stupid.
