Facepalm

Facepalm. I never knew there was a term for that action until I went to Unbeknownst's blog and read the "Troy in Fifteen Minutes" entry. I've been using the -facepalm- a lot recently. Both in the net and in the real world. Especially now while sifting through my email and the blogs of my friends. I want to read them. But it takes so much time...

Anyway, here's a narrative of a few stupid Bruce -facepalm- moments.

...

Lycos Inbox: "You have reached 98% of your mail capacity. You have 128 unread messages. 90% of them are spam."
Bruce: -facepalm-

...

Tabulas Friends: "Recent entries since last viewing span across fourteen pages."
Bruce: "Entries per page?"
Tabulas Friends: "Three."
Bruce: "Average entry length?"
Tabulas Friends: "Two hundred and fifty words."
Bruce: -facepalm-

Bruce: -Takes back the bill, goes home, gets the money and returns to bank-
Teller: "Welcome back."

Teller: "I receive one thousand four hundred ninety six pesos... Ummm... sir?"
Bruce: "Yes?"
Teller: "Could I have the billing statement again?"
Bruce: -checks pockets-
Bill: "I'm at home! You dropped me when you took the money!"
Bruce: -facepalm-

Okay that should be enough stupidity for today.
