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?

Welsh farmer shenanigansI case of urban legend perhaps, I saw this tale printed in the press a while back.
A Welsh farmer, sick of the low flying jets which buzzed his farm at all hours had enough and climbed onto the roof of his barn and painted "PISS OFF BIGGLES!" in twenty foot high letters.
His satisfaction was short lived however as word quickly got around:
"I say Ginger old chap, have a look at this"
Soon enough, more and more jets were taking a detour to buzz the barn and read the message.
The farmer's will was finally broken when a detachment of USAF F15's peeled off and flew by one by one to check out the message.
Utterly vexed and short of sleep, our hero grabs a can of black paint and climbs the barn once again to paint over the legend...
However, at dawn and dusk "PISS OFF BIGGLES" is still clearly visible for low flying RAF showoffs to read.
