idiot 

A derogatory term used to describe a person that presumably lacks proper intelligence. This word is more than often used improperly as the term is nearly always based off a laughably tiny sample space. Typically, one will be called an idiot for being responsible for one minor mistake. Being called an idiot often stems from an unintentional mishap within the confines of education.

Teacher: Kid 1, please spell bourgeoise.
Kid 1: B-o-r-r-g-e-o-i-s-e?
Kid 2: Ahah - Kid 1 spelled bourgeoise incorrectly! Wow, Kid 1, you’re such an idiot!

Kid 1 was referred to as ‘idiot’ by Kid 2 for the rest of eternity. No one picked up on Kid 2’s fallacy, much to Kid 1’s dismay.
