As long as there are people, there will be people who act and say things without thinking. Some of these moments are human and understandable. Others are in their own league of disappointing facepalm. Since people will never not be dumb, all we can do is take the laughs when we can get them and watch attempts hit the ground with the sound of failure.

The world has its fair share of entitled people who need to pack up their rotten attitudes. Being in need is one thing, but being straight up abusive because you want a stranger to deliver a camera to your house for 5 dollars is some completely irrational behavior. People of all stripes need to recognize and and quit it with their unreasonable demands.

People are taking to Twitter to share their "journal entries" amidst this self-quarantined time. The resulting insights reflect the wide range of emotions that encircle self-isolation. It can be a strange time. Maybe one of self reflection, and where you are almost forced to slow everything down to such a point where you can find yourself evaluating how you got to where you are; and ultimately, maybe identify what is important to you.

Someone on AskReddit asked for people to describe the worst compliments they've ever received. It turns out people can come up with some absolutely awful compliments. These are all wonderful examples of word vomit, in action.

Twitter user @BallouxFrancois works as a computational/system biologist, who additionally spent 5 years modeling world class pandemic responses. He proceeds to break down all the things that he (doesn't) know. Just a little bit terrifying.

Someone on AskReddit asked for people to discuss the most interesting things that they've left behind. As it turns out, some people leave behind some real gems. There's that, and then more sinister things that you'd probably wish you never crossed paths with in the first place.

Unfortunate things happen all the time, but they usually fall under the category of "typical crap that happens to everybody." Here are some unfortunate moments of failure and chaos that you don't really expect, like 10,000 cracked eggs or a Frisbee in your windshield.

@Sixthformpoet had a story that went viral on Twitter, and it's no wonder. It has a bit of something for everyone. Definitely still a better love story than Twilight. It's gritty and adorable and outright ridiculous. A solid rollercoaster.

Here are some way-too human moments incredible entitled selfishness, blatant face-palming stupidity, and trashiness, cringeworthy egotistical bragging. These are the people you share the world with. At any time you are free to put a bag over your head and try to stop thinking about how dumb everything is always.

Sometimes people are so focused on getting the job done that they fail to realize if they've done a job so wonky that it renders their own work confusing, laughable and useless. These design fails were someone's one job and frankly we're glad they did it bad so we could watch. These design failures need some help.

We respect beautiful stupid puns but they can kind of get to be too much. That said, we can't stay away from them for too long until we need our fix. Then we go back to hating them again. They make us feel smart and stupid at the same time. It's hard to tell if we love or hate puns.

This kid got caught up in quite the uncomfortable family dinner, after their dad told the attending "Aunt Karen" about the viral Karen memes. As it turns out, Aunt Karen was not too stoked about memes that poke fun at uptight and unreasonable individuals in the world named Karen. She proceeded to take it personally, and the rest is history. Maybe a bit of a Karen move, after all.

A true American hero. You know you've made it when you're directing a mob of people to steer a giant mass of steel for the sole purpose of getting the sun out of your face, while you go about enjoying your bagel. All in a day's work.

This guy asked people on Reddit whether he was in the wrong for playing some poker with the boys on his birthday, even though his girlfriend wanted the day to be about them. Apparently, she was quite upset when he didn't meet those wants, and instead did his own thing.

This deeply dissatisfied customer sounds like they've hit their breaking point when it comes to exercising patience over an employee's painfully slow cheese cutting abilities. At the end of the day, the job might just not be a good fit for the employee. Cutting cheese isn't for everyone.

Life is a relentless battering of attempt after attempt. Sometime's you're trying to park your car, make a cake, do your job or just make a decent point online. Not all of these tries will work out. Many of these attempts will hit the ground with the sound of failure.

Someone on AskReddit asked for people to describe wholesome and solitary activities that people can do. Might be worth trying some of these out, if you're planning on spending more time alone than usual, in the near future.

We've rounded up a fun collection of people being petty animals to one another. Some folks just don't want to let stuff go, and from there they decide to enact their petty revenges. The people who took these revenges must've been feeling some kind of satisfied, after seeing things through.

This guy had quite the fail after wolfing down a wonderful six egg omelette, and then realizing that it was intended for the whole family. Yikes. There it is. The fail occurred, and some solid stress-induced indigestion likely resulted.

The level of entitlement at play here is truly off the charts. Seriously, it sounds like this choosing beggar expected the couple to not use the ride that they had sorted months in advance. Ridiculous.

People in Rome, Italy, came together to play the Italian anthem at 6 PM from their balconies and patios during the #coronarvirusitalia quarantine. This is what we could hear.

Experiencing your loved ones deal with aging is emotional and difficult, to put it lightly. But the moments of clarity when your grandma can sling a hardcore diss at a rude Karen are the kind of stuff you remember for a long time. For another wild Karen encounter, here's a story of a Karen who demanded fresh donuts and got them.
