We're not always going to succeed at everything we do in life, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try. There is a certain purpose and dignity in the attempt itself that is meaningful in and of itself. At least, that's how it might have been before the internet. Now, every mistake you make is immortalized for eternity somewhere online. Every video of that stupid thing you did, every hot-take that you Tweeted out in 2012, it's all up there in the cloud somewhere (aka sitting on a server in a room…

This one is for people with poor gift-wrapping skills!

What are the things we all do that no one talks about?

In a hilariously embarrassing mistake, that they're going to be thinking about for the rest of their lives as they lie in bed trying to sleep, this worker accidentally made the brutal error of calling their boss “mom.” I think it's pretty safe to assume we've all been in a situation like this at some point in our lives; who hasn't called a teacher “mom” or “dad” in grade school? But the situation plays out a little bit differently when you're an adult working in an adult workplace, the adult co…

Don't worry, everyone. No pineapples were harmed for this post!

Everybody makes mistakes - and sometimes those mistakes turn into pretty big flaws . Check out some design choices that range from bizarre bathrooms to a set of less-than-functioning stairs. How in the world anyone could sign off on these oddball designs ? Regardless, their wacky mistakes are out in the world for everyone to see. To keep reading some more interesting memes, click here .

We always point to the invention of the lightbulb as the penultimate moment of creation, greater maybe than the creation of man itself; but instead of a bearded dude elegantly touching fingertips with a ripped naked bloke, this creation involved another (less bearded) dude sitting in his basement, touching himself, and smashing wires together. By all accounts, Thomas Edison was a total a-hole (AITA for screwing over my rival Nikola Tesla?) —but despite the misbehavior of its inventor, nothing h…

When facing an irrational opponent, it's impossible to beat them with rational thought —You need to meet them on the groundless battlefields of baseless reasoning. Anyone who has met an obstinately incorrect opponent has probably learned this lesson — there is no winning, so you must lose together. That's exactly what this Reddit user, u/pappagall0, faced when they became lodged in debate with a storage company over the existence of a mysterious eighth box that the storage company insisted on c…

We've all been there—looking around the room, watching everyone else laugh, wondering what on earth we just missed. Even though we've all experienced this, how we deal with this situation differentiates us. Some might choose to laugh with the rest of the crowd to fit in, others might instead maintain their confused silence, and others still will belligerently verbally accost the speaker in order to protect their stupid ego from the idea that they just don't understand something. This list is br…

What a horrible day to have eyes. It's no secret that we, as human beings, are all very different from one another and that individuality and identity defines the true beauty of mankind. Our ability to innovate and try new things makes us unique in this world and has ensured our success as a species, but it has also put us squarely on a path toward our own destruction. For every brilliant idea the human race puts forth, dozens should have never existed. For every amazing place we have ventured…

Why is it so easy to relate

Yes, I know I know, I can already see the comments. “What is this? Actual Fails on Fail Blog?”

The straw that broke the camel's back...

This is definitely not a collection of the best ideas of all time.

Never take what you see at face value.

Looks, uh, done.
