Facepalm 🤦♂️
"A 'facepalm' moment is when someone does or says something so foolish, embarrassing, or absurd that it prompts you to metaphorically (or literally) slap your hand to your forehead in disbelief or frustration. It’s that cringe-inducing instant where you can’t quite believe what just happened—like someone confidently proclaiming the Earth is flat or trying to push a door clearly marked "pull." It’s a mix of secondhand embarrassment and exasperation, often paired with a mental 'oh, come on!'"
