Most of the time, when people spot someone stupid, they often leave right away or avoid contact to keep their mind out of unnecessary bullsh*t. No one wants trouble. Ah, maybe someone does. As far as we know, idiots are usually found getting involved in trouble due to their negligence. Well, they did it all by themselves, so we can say that they actively seek trouble.
Anyway, as long as their stupid stories don't get to us, then we won't bother. However, sometimes, people encounter someone so blatantly stupid they simply can't get over it. Like, what would you do if you hear a friend of yours tell you to get over your loss because that's something God wanted to happen? That sucks! Your religious belief has nothing to do with me nor my loss. And your words don't sound anything sympathetic at all.
Down below, people share 24 times they encountered such stupid people, they just had to share it online. It's hard to tell which one of these is sillier, but we can be sure that the level of stupidity these people have reached will blow your mind. So now, let's scroll down to check them out. And be sure to reach the end of this post!

"Why should I be responsible for my son's late fees?"I dunno, lady. Maybe because he's 12 and can't get a job yet? Also, there's the matter of the letter you and he signed when he got his library card that says you're responsible for any fines on the account, as his parent or legal guardian. Just a shot in the dark.
#4 Omg, I'm wheezing here

I have seizures and I had somebody ask me if they were contagious. My cousin was right next to me and elbowed me and whispered for me to start coughing. By the way, my cousin is blind and when I started coughing she chucked her cane behind her fake panicking that she suddenly couldn’t see and the guy ran away so he wouldn't “catch the seizures”.My cousin busted out laughing when she heard him run off saying she wished she could see his reaction and that it must have been priceless. I explained what it looked like to her and she fell to the ground laughing. She’s just as evil too when people ask her dumb questions about her being blind as she had someone ask her today if it was deadly even though she was born blind.

“Evolution is b******t.

Now go back to getting drunk after church and driving your kids home, and when you come back to work, don’t forget to f**k another 18-year-old server on the tables after the close. Don’t worry, I’m sure your wife will never know. Idiot scumbag.
#10 That man was a cockwomble. Good riddance

Actually a doctor. So hear me out.On September 18th, 2021, my mother, unfortunately, passed away. She and I both had Covid, as we lived together and unfortunately her body couldn’t handle it. This lead to anxiety, panic attacks, stress, and guilt. I felt like it was my fault for my mother's [passing]. Anyway, to the doctor. I decided in December that I couldn’t go on the way I was. I was never leaving my boyfriend's house. I chose to go to therapy in seek of some help with my issues.
When I got an intake appointment, I had to see a doctor there to prescribe, what I expected to be an antidepressant. The moment I sat down, I already had a weird vibe from him. He was quiet, his tone was dull. We started going over my charts and why I was there, etc. and I told him everything he needed to know.
I told him about my guilt, and a prior issue I had even before my mother's [passing]. I have a phobia of vomiting, so I brought it up. This doctor told me to just “throw up”, and i would no longer be afraid. He then proceeded to say that I was a very anxious person who is “on the spectrum”. and finally, the KICKER, he told me all my loved ones would go to hell.
Needless to say, I walked out of there sobbing my eyes out. I called the place to file a complaint and thankfully—haven’t seen that man since.
#11 Moonlight is just the afterglow after they turn the sun off for the night

One of my ex-coworkers was convinced that the sun and the moon were the same things. He thought it turned around at night and became the moon. He was astonished one morning when I pointed to the moon in broad daylight. I thought he was going to have a panic attack. Luckily, we were sharing a joint behind the warehouse and he calmed down a bit. He still didn’t fully understand and kept glancing at the sky for the rest of our shift.#12 Ever been to a hospital?

The first person I dated after my amputation, freaked out over it and said to stay away because they didn't want to catch what I had as if amputations due to cancer are contagious. This was right when Myspace had started getting popular, and texting cost you like, 10cents per text.#16 Makes you really wonder how some people even make it to adulthood

My ex’s brother in full confidence said 'lava' was 2 words. Tried to explain its 2 syllables, not words. I was the idiot apparently.For context, we were watching a Phineas and Ferb movie they were all on a chain over lava. Phineas tells them to let go of the cliff and Candace says something along the lines of “I have 1 word for you! LA-VA!” And then his brother looked at us and proudly said “that’s 2 words, dumba&s”. He was/is notorious for having little to no common sense.

#24 And these people are allowed to work in colleges and the medical field... We need better education!

Pregnant with my first at the time. Was dragged over to my in-law's place for my husband's birthday lunch or whatever I was required to show my face at. They're not the most intelligent people despite holding degrees, but this is forever burned in my mind:" ...don't let your OB do the ultrasound too long! No more than 10 seconds or you'll fry the baby alive!"
My MIL teaches ultrasound technology at a local college. And she told me this. She was always into fear-mongering, but good god, all I could do was stare at her dumbfounded and eventually say, "uh, no, that's not how ultrasounds work..."
Bonus just because it's a common stupidity. My FIL claims you can't get COVID if you're vaccinated. He works in the medical field.
