50 People Who Made Fools Out Of Themselves And Let The World Judge Them For Missing The Joke
When you miss a joke, the best thing to do is chuckle nervously, not go all in and embarrass yourself.
There are different kinds of jokes: the obvious, the subtle, and the hidden ones. Depending on how close you are to the person joking, you might fully understand, partially understand, or not understand at all.
When you fully understand, you have the right to respond however you see fit. When you partially understand, it's best to chuckle nervously and let it be.
But when you don't understand at all, it's best to remain silent instead of going all in and embarrassing yourself. It's very important to respond accordingly, but some people missed the memo.
It's okay not to understand all jokes; our brains can't possibly filter all of them, anyway.
The best course of action, especially when you're unsure, is to remain silent. But that's not what people do.
Even if they don't understand the joke, they jump the gun and start talking in an attempt to "school" the other person. What they don't understand is the joke itself.
They go about rambling and making complete fools of themselves, allowing the world to judge them as silently as possible. These people then end up on Reddit as humans who can't catch a break.
Here are some people who missed the joke and ended up embarrassing themselves.

It's important to remember that you are awesome just the way you are and that there's no need to make people think otherwise.
I struggle with subtle jokes, but did you see those? People are always ready to judge, comment, and yell when all they need to do is understand the joke.
Oh well. See you in the next article.
