Photos of some of the dumbest geniuses we’ve ever seen

There is a certain set of social and actual rules that we all follow on a daily basis; however, not everyone lives by these rules. Sometimes people make their own rules and then they live by those instead. Are they always the best rules to live by? Absolutely not. In fact, we really don’t advise emulating any of these horrible decisions.

Keep reading to see some people who are kind of stupid in all the weirdest ways.

A Lobster Dinner

This woman brought a whole lobster dinner on an airplane. She really has had enough of airplane food and she’s taking her meals into her own hands.

Is this even allowed?

That’s Not Kurt Cobain

First of all, that is definitely David Spade and not Kurt Cobain. Second of all, I’m not even sure that that’s a Kurt Cobain quote.

So much is wrong with this.

Just Take All The Spots

The driver of this truck thought that it was perfectly fine to take up four different parking spots when it can clearly fit in one spot without a problem.

Why though?

So Just Towels?

This product is being marketed as environmentally friendly paperless towels when, really, those are just towels.

They’ve been around for a long time. Last time we checked, it was paper towels that needed the qualifier.

That’s Going To Take A While

It looks like this girl is trying to fill up a laundry basket with gasoline; however, that is a basket that’s full of holes.

I don’t think it’s going to get full any time soon.

A Sunny Day

This guy is struggling to see clearly on a sunny day when he has his hat on backward and a pair of sunglasses hanging on his shirt.

What a genius.

A Dangerous Bike Lane

How are any bikes supposed to ride safely down this lane when there’s a metal grate right in the middle of it?

This seems like an accident waiting to happen.

Two Handicap Spots

It’s bad enough to park in one handicap spot when you don’t actually have a handicap sticker on your car.

But this guy thought he could take up two of them.

No Diving

Well, these are actually pretty easy rules to follow. We couldn’t fish off of this bridge if we tried.

I wonder if someone left this sign here as a joke.

It’s Plover

The village of Plover was in need of a new water tower, but whoever installed this tower definitely spelled the name of the town wrong.

It’s Plover, not Plvoer. Oops.

Free Mattress

Well, here’s a new way to get rid of a mattress that you don’t want anymore.

It’s a different way of phrasing, “Hi, yes, I have bed bugs in my house.”

No Trespassing

The sign here clearly says that you aren’t allowed to play on the tracks, but what are these people doing? They’re playing on the tracks.

Well, I hope no trains come speeding by.

Noki Parng

I know that this is supposed to say “No Parking,” but the way it was written doesn’t make much sense. It looks like it says “Noki Parng.”

I guess we can park here then.

What Kind Of Chair Is This?

Whoever made this chair clearly doesn’t know how chairs work. How are you supposed to sit on this? It’s unsitable!

It can’t even stand up properly. I don’t like it.

Is That Braille?

If this is a hot surface that you shouldn’t touch, why is there braille on it?

You kind of have to touch braille to read it, which means that you would have to touch the hot surface.

Out Of Order

This person printed out a picture of an out of order sign instead of just typing out the words, “out of order.”

It seems like this used up way more printer ink than it needed to.

A Large Box

Why does Amazon feel the need to ship small items in such big boxes? This just seems like a lot of wasted packaging.

All of this could have fit in a big envelope.

Don’t Use The Kettle

If it’s prohibited to use the kettle, why would this hotel provide a kettle in the room?

It seems like they’re just taunting their guests. it’s like they want them to get fined.

He Doesn’t Eat Biscuits

These people caught a snake and then tried to feed him biscuits. They don’t know that snakes don’t eat biscuits.

This snake would be much happier with a live mouse.

This Is What It’s Like To Date A Musician

A candlelit dinner always seems like the perfect way to ramp up the romance until you realize that you don’t own any candlesticks.

Luckily, your band’s equipment is still in your living room.

This Man Is Unicycling On A Treadmill

This genius is out here working on his fitness, his balance, and his speed in the gym.

If you saw him getting his pump on in the swole-palace you wouldn’t be laughing. But here it’s safe to laugh.

“Can You Save Me A Little Bit Of Everything From Dinner?”

Holidays are a time for us to gather with the ones we love, share a hearty meal, and do everything we can to ruin the happiness of our siblings.

Nothing like family, right?

Why Use A Manual Mower When You Could Put Your Feet To Work?

I’m not going to lie, I think this is pretty brilliant. It’s definitely more efficient than walking with the mower, and it’s 100% environmentally friendly.

The maker of this should patent the design.

This Floor Designer Is Playing Koi

This restaurant designer thought that “sanitary” and “restaurant” just didn’t sit right, so they created this monster.

I have a fear of soggy feet and fish defecating under my toenails so I would never eat here.

…He Doesn’t Live In Cleveland

This Milwaukee resident lives near the airport, so he painted this sign on his roof to confuse and frighten incoming flight passengers.

He alsoo make flight attendants’ lives an absolute hell-scape.

Poor Anger Management, But Make It Art

Art (especially post-modern art) is extremely subjective and is meant to make the viewer think.

For example, the viewer here might ponder what could possibly have made the artist so mad that they punched the wall on Thanksgiving.

Those Cinnamon Bun’s Look Like They’re Doing Just Fine

Apart from the clear mystery of “where are the oven trays and why aren’t they being used”, this is a pretty beautiful example of human innovation for the sake of survival*.

This shows the lengths that we are willing to go to eat delicious snacks.
