As human beings, we're all very familiar with dumb moments of failure and stupidity. People do and say stupid things as if it's their job. Whether it's arguing with Buzz Aldrin about the moon landing or getting keys stuck in an armored car, the bar lowers every day for facepalm moments from humanity's best and brightest.

We're human, and we're never far from mistakes, failures, errors and blunders. Does that mean we learn from our mistakes? Honestly it's hard to tell. There's enough of us out here messing up that it doesn't look like idiocy is going away soon. All we can really do is sit back and enjoy the facepalm moments of mystifying dumbness.

Sometimes we don't give people enough credit for how stupid they are all the time, but luckily we have some classic facepalm moments of incompetence to back it up. For more stories of unparalleled dumbness, here are some dumb things people did at stores, as well as some of the dumbest questions people have been asked.

Human beings are capable of incredible things, but one of our more interesting features is our ability to ignore reality and push forward with incredible facepalm moments of incompetence. There are enough dumb moments out there to fill your day with stupid. The dumbness never stops.

We're supposed to be the smartest species on the planet, but sometimes it doesn't feel that way. For every one of our genius achievements, there are a hundred monumental lapses in judgement. The good thing about that is a lot of them are funny to watch.  For more human error, here are some classic moments of facepalm to get that stupid fix.

Be it a stroke of luck, or just the staff finally knowing who to look for, but their thief came back, probably to steal again. This time they were sort of prepared, kind of. What kind of idiot comes back to the same place he already stole from on camera? For a satisfying story of revenge, here's a guy who got sweet padlock revenge on a gym thief.

Whether it's cheapness, not valuing other people's skills or time, or just straight up douche-baggery, the world has its fair share of entitled individuals with unreasonable demands. It really changes your opinion of someone when they not only want valuable stuff for free, but are also threatening jerks about it. These entitled folks need to leave and take their attitudes with them.

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.

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.

Kids are stupid people. We're not saying children's stupidity is their fault. Their brains just don't work too good. We've seen it in ourselves when we we kids, and we see it in them every day. They give us a lot of evidence and moments of failure that articulate exactly how poorly a young mind works. They learn though. Well, most of them anyway.

This moron fired out some shots on Twitter at graphic novel artist Blake Northcott, before doing some simple fact checking. They assumed that the artist was a basement dwelling, Trump supporting bro, and couldn't have been more wrong. 

These folks are absolute masters of their craft of being dumb. This be the land of stupid attempts, lies and general dumbassery. We honestly wish all of these were jokes but given the state of things, we're not so sure. For more of this, here are enough moments of facepalm to give you a stupid stroke.

These folks jumped the gun on whether the article they were reading was a joke or not. We get why they're so angry. Hell, we would be just as mad if we thought these headlines were real. The thing is, they're very obviously not. If you wanna see more people overreacting to more satire they didn't get, then check these out.

This guy thinks he can just walk into an old friend's life and get him to put down his time and money for nothing in return? No sir, that will not fly. If you wanna frustrate yourself further with the demands of irrationally entitled buttheads insulting hard working people and trying to get shit for free, then look no further.
