mistake

Misfortune follows us throughout our lives. Sometimes you're trying to insult a celebrity. Sometimes you're trying to skip in front of traffic like a douche. Sometimes you're trying to give a person a compliment, create a work of art or fix something to the best of your ability. On all sides of the spectrum, there is failure.

Whether or not you like the show, the hashtag is VERY obviously a deliberate joke. It's a small, simple joke.

These people woke up thinking their day was gonna be totally fine, but sadly they were wrong. Life can strike at any moment.

Some days are worse than others. Most likely, your day was good enough that you can find some comfort in seeing how comically worse it was for someone else.

You'd be amazed at the amount of dumb you can fit into this one small space.

"You only had one job!" If you want things done right, don't keep your hopes up. 

Life has its devastatingly embarrassing moments. One minute you're minding your own business and the next you're in front of the whole student body with your pants in a tree.

So I guess our lesson today is don't drink too much at work, steal too much from work, or try sell the secret recipe to Coca-Cola to your enemies.

Life is full of attempts. Sometimes you're trying to make a good point. Sometimes you're just trying to make a good shirt. For one reason or another, not all of these will succeed.
