There are only so many ways to make yourself feel smarter. One way is to spend time reading, taking tests and memorizing meaningful and important information. The other way it to watch people do stupider things than you could dream of. Remember: if you want to be higher up than someone, you don't have to climb a mountain. You just have to stand next to the idiot who's standing in a hole.
That's not to say we don't also make mistakes. We totally do. We make great terrible mistakes that surprise our loved ones and scare dogs away when they explode all over our back yards and begin to attract ants. But maybe the only difference between these people and the rest of us who make idiotic mistakes is that these people documented them. So maybe that doesn't make us smart. Maybe that just makes us liars by omission. That's something to think about.
We are people, and we are the proud, glowing mothers of our own blunders, goofs, mistakes and chaos. Observe as we huff and puff, screaming in agony as we push out these facepalm moments made possible by the brutally stupid.
