38 Reddit Facepalm Stories That Will Make You Question Reality

Ever met someone who thought potatoes came from cows? Reddit users are sharing their most jaw-dropping encounters with people who seem to have misplaced their common sense. Whether it's a deliberate act of ignorance or an accidental lapse in logic, these stories serve as a stark reminder that reality is often weirder than fiction.

Reddit Facepalm Stories: From Education to Customer Service

One of the most baffling accounts involves a high school student in the UK who believed both Britain and France were located inside America. When asked about the USA, he simply didn't believe it was a real place. This wasn't a young child, but a Year 9 student (around 13-14 years old). Similarly, a woman surrendered an 8-week-oldRottweiler puppy because she 'didn't realize it would get that big.'

Customer service isn't immune to these 'Are you kidding me?' moments. A G2A representative refused a refund because the customer 'looked at the key' they purchased. In another instance, a hotel manager insisted a guest couldn't spell their own last name and forcibly changed it in the system to what he believed was the 'correct' version.
