failure

Life is full of earnest attempts. Sometimes you're trying to have a good time. Sometimes you're trying to tie down a four-wheeler to a truck bed.

These people all tried their best. However, life has a way of reminding us that sometimes our best is still not good.

Some things just weren't mean to be...

These parenting failures probably shouldn't have been allowed to have children.
