    They don't think before they speak.

    Because they aren't obvious to them.

    I want to tell them; "don't ever say that again, that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard you say." But of course I can't, people don't care for blunt honesty.

    Because too many people are snowflakes.

    Perhaps it's an emotional response, trying to send a message without really saying what is wrong.  Not a good way to communicate, I don't respond to that kind of thing. Let's find another way to communicate is what I would say. He is the most intelligent person I have ever met.  I've been known to say stupid things from time to time so I get it.

    I found out how to message people by going to their home page, however the "message" icon does not show on the website page, so you don't know when you receive one, nor do "friend requests" appear. Can someone fix that?

    The icons are missing but if a message, friend request or notification comes in you will see a number where the icon used to be.

    Your friend Trump does that a lot, and he’s not a stupid guy.

    These people you speak of want attention. In their eyes, saying stupid things gets them that attention.

    Some people just speak whatever pops in their head.

    Obviously we have the stupids among us so that is part of the answer.  All of us have made stupid comments before.  Hopefully we realize it and make a correction.............or just accept our humanness and acknowledge the mistake.
