A facepalmist is someone, who by virtue
one's idiocy (unaccountable by a disease or disorder), gives the reader/listener an inevitable, painful collision between
one's palm and the face, one of the reasons being the utter disgust of having to share the identity of "
human" with the facepalmist.
This person is not the regular ignorant person (which is
basically each one of us) who says something stupid once in a while. Both the quantity and quality of stupid matters, he/she has to be very stupid and often stupid. The suffix "ist" is justified by the expert level stupidity in a facepalmist.
Facepalmist: If some stars are 100
light years away, then how do I see them? I am not 10 million years old, stupid cosmologists!
Anyone with basic
common sense: *
Facepalm*
