'If there are adult diapers, why aren't there adult strollers?': 25+ unintelligent thoughts people actually said out loud

Has anyone had one of those horrendous "did I just say that out loud" realizations? If you haven't, you must be some sort of genius because the rest of us common folk have likely felt foolish and unintelligent in public settings countless times.

Personally speaking, I have vivid memories of being in sixth grade and being called on to answer a question when I was on the verge of falling asleep and saying something barely intelligible that resulted in uproarious laughter from my classmates. I guess I kept them entertained…

Flash forward at least ten years later and running into a friend whose parents recently got divorced. All I remember telling myself was "Don't bring up the divorce" on a loop until we were actually conversing and I impulsively asked how their parents were doing like a complete fool.

Having gone through these situations more times than I'd like to admit, I will always try to retain some semblance of compassion for other folks when they slip up and say something completely off in public. These folks revealed their worst slip-ups via this thread on r/AskReddit. Keep scrolling below for their anecdotes to feel better about yourself.
