Have you ever said something that you've regretted and just thought "Why did I just say that?"

Or even worse, something you've said that's landed you in trouble?

Well, you're not the only one, as one person online forum site Reddit has shared their faux pas.

In a thread titled: 'What’s the stupidest thing you ever said that genuinely made you question your intelligence?'

People rushed to the comment section of the post, with one person replying: "I don’t know if this counts because praise the Lord I did not say it aloud.

"The scene: Me, a college senior still living in a dorm doing my weekly snacks and root beer run at the local Wal-Mart

"The thought: “Man, how do people with a whole family grocery shop? Like what do you do if you buy more than you can fit in your arms?”

"Carts. That’s what carts are for."

Another commented: "I said it would be nice if we had a 'mirror app!'"

A third added: "I was on a long train trip, gazing out the window, when I said to my friend: 'I feel like every railroad crossing gate we’ve passed since I’ve been looking has been down… what are the odds...'"

Another shared: "Not too much ice please, don't wanna water it down. (It was literally just a cup of ice water)"

A user said: "My manager's manager asked me to ballpark the percentage of time I was spending on each of my three projects. I confidently told him: 75% on project A, 25% on project B, and 25% on project C. I heard my cubicle neighbor laughing (didn't immediately click that she was laughing at me).

"Manager's manager paused a moment, then in a very kind and patient voice (like he was speaking to a Labrador with a learning disability) "So, I'd like those numbers to add up to 100%. Can you try again?" Then it dawned on me."

Another shared: "Got introduced to identical twins. First thing I said was 'wow, how can you guys tell each other apart?'"

And finally someone said: "A stranger asked my wife, 'what time is it?' and she said 'right now?'"
