facepalm

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 2: - But what is the logical connection between truth and everybody saying it that way, in this last statement of yours?
Person 1: - But I am right! Ask anybody!
Person 2 does a facepalm.
