Stupid means that something or someone lacks intelligence. Foolish kind of means the same thing, but stupid is more commonly used. And goofy means that something or someone is silly/funny. They are all synonyms of each other.

Stupid is more like insult. While you can take goofy as compliment.
Stupid = lack of intelligence.
Goofly = easygoing and act like a stupid person or doing stupid things in order to be funny. While themselves isnt stupid at all.

Goofy is like funny, or silly. You can use it when someone does something that makes you laugh. Stupid is like dumb (바보) and is usually used in a negative way.
