Stupid is a lack of intelligence or common sense.
Dillhole is slang for jerk or asshole though I personally haven’t heard it used in day to day conversations.
Goof when talking about a person is someone who makes mistakes unintentionally(usually in a funny way)
Dumb is usually interchangeable with stupid but the dictionary definition is when someone is speechless or mute though that usage is seen as more offensive and isn’t typically used that way in most situations, instead you will more likely hear people say that someone is “speechless”.
He was stupid/dumb to think that putting metal in a microwave was a good idea.
That dillhole won’t stop harassing those kids.
That goof put his shirt on backwards.
He has gone dumb from shock.
