dumb 

NOT the same as stupid.

Dumb is ignorant. Someone who is stupid cannot help it and is therefore worthy of a minimal amount of pity, but someone who is dumb is simply ignorant, knowing fully well the consequences for their actions and yet still taking them, usually as a means to be "cool" or "hip."

I don't know what makes you so dumb but it really works.
