FailedOn my third driving test, I turned right out of the test centre, reached a pedestrian crossing, attempted to run over a little old lady, was prevented from doing so by the examiner grabbing the wheel, then proceeded straight back to the test centre.
The drive home was very, very quiet. I've never felt such a complete failure.
What have you failed at?

Success + excess = failure?I have failed at two things:
1) I was fired as a waitress at the Dog 'N' Suds at age 16 for "not having the right attitude." So that counts as a success, really.
2) I got 38% in Statistics for Psychology. It was due to my dyscalculia. (You see what a cracking psychologist was lost to the world?)
At love, however, I have succeeded. Perhaps too well. So I have also failed to avoid being called a "slut" according to a fence, but again, whether that's a success or a failure depends on your point of view. No such thing as bad publicity, right?
