Kids are weird, dumb and easily tricked. All we can say is that we were this stupid once too, but that doesn't make kids not stupid. They make irrational demands, have unrealistic dreams, and believe just about anything. There's a lot of evidence out there that goes to show how kids are stupid and weird.

It's not good business practice to abuse the person you're trying to buy from, and it's even worse stealing practice to tell a dude you're gonna steal from him then ask for their address after the fact. There are entitled people out there who just think they can have stuff, like this entitled dad who wanted free art and childcare.
It can be really frustrating to realize your boss is a goddamn moron. Some bosses are just good at hiding the fact that they have no idea what they're doing, but some are not quite so good. Don't get us wrong, many bosses are competent, but these ones really let the stupid cat out of the idiot bag.
We remember being idiot kids and doing stupid crap like wasting an employee's time on a joke order. That said, the humor is really lost once you've realized you've just spent money for a joke no one even payed any attention to. Here's a fun workplace prank of an employee who gets fake fired every time an awful customer shows up.
Not everyone has a very good brain. Some people have decent ones, but they're not exactly working for them all the time. We live in a world where people can sort of believe whatever they want, and sometimes people have a personal resistance to wanting to learn, which leads to all of us hearing some really dumb things.
This artist got a pretty flippin' stupid offer from a friend's husband: getting to work in exchange for also having to watch his kids. It's crazy that there are people who think like this. However, they often don't get what they want, like this artist who trolled people asking for free art or this lying producer who got taken down for offering a no-pay gig.
From the outright illegal and immoral to the straight-up Machiavellian or just plain stupid, these people admitted to the wild crap they did when they were stupid kids. We remember having ideas just as terrific as these people when we were running around with no parental supervision.
The ability to post something online faster than you can think about it has given a whole lot of people a chance to reveal their inner stupid. Don't let these make you feel too bad about your fellow humans, we're not this stupid all the time. There are just a lot of daunting moments of disappointing facepalm.
Incompetent power-tripping managers can get themselves into some really stupid situations, like this boss who demanded a special contractor be on call 24/7 and ended up with a $10K invoice. In lucky situations, incompetent managers get called on their BS and have to actually deal with the ramifications of their actions, rather than pushing the burden onto their employees.
This moron decided to pay in counterfeit bills, and thought he got away with $400 of gas. Little did he know that people can actually remember faces. Fast forward a little over a month down the road, and he returns to the same spot he stole the gas from. From there, it was a smooth revenge of calling the cops and busting him for breaking the law.
Extreme trashiness can arise from every level of society. It can come from the mom who leaves dirty diapers on a McDonald's counter to the rich jerk who parks his super car over four handicapped parking spots. Everywhere there are people, there's some selfish folks who think they can do whatever miserable thing they want. Sometimes humanity is not on its A-game.
While most people have a shred of humility, the world is still crawling with entitled morons who think the world is made for them. There are horrible customers, awful job offers, and entitled individuals of all strips who try to take advantage of people. Asking for help when you need it is fine, but some entitled individuals go above and beyond reason.
Life is a series of attempts that sometimes crash and burn. Maybe you're trying to make a point on the internet, make a cool piece of art, or just trying to seem cool. Some of these attempts will fail to work out. Without failure, we can't learn, but sometimes people's mistakes are so dumb that it's unclear if they'll learn anything from them.
Either these people didn't want to get the joke and decided these insane headlines were "fake news" or they thought they were completely true and responded in kind. Makes you feel sad about people's inability to differentiate obvious satire from actual news, but it is pretty funny. Mistaken people don't understand satire kind of a lot.
