15 Embarrassing Social Media Posts Captured By Reddit’s ‘Facepalm’

It’s been years since most of us thought about the term facepalm. In 2023, it doesn’t feel as relevant as it did a decade ago. But the things that are worthy of facepalming over have never disappeared. In fact, people seem to have gotten significantly dumber over the years, especially in the wake of the pandemic, which seems to have left many of us giving up on logic entirely in favor of posting some nonsense for the sake of social media likes.

Fortunately, while we’ve been unaware of the facepalm-worthy tweets, pictures, comments and more that are constantly circulating online, Reddit has been meticulously cataloging them for the rest of us to enjoy. On the subreddit /r/facepalm, people continue to be as delusional and embarrassing as ever, and all of them in very unique ways. Here are some of the best new images to remind you that facepalming is still relevant as long as these people are still around.
