When a person thinks he said or did something smart that in fact was unbelieveably stupid, and you know you cannot make him understand this or convince him otherwise, you do a facepalm in self-agony, that means you lower your head in your palm and feel bad.
Person 1: - Everybody else says it this way, so it must be true!

Person 1: - But I am right! Ask anybody!
Person 2 does a facepalm.

Person #1: I can see now that you're a total douche. Bye.
Person #2: *facepalm*
