We all fail from time to time—it’s inevitable. Sometimes it happens at work, sometimes at home. We fail at making spreadsheets and creating pitches, when trying new recipes or changing up the old ones, we sometimes fail as friends, partners, and parents, too. That is why trying to do something new or especially challenging can be very hard.
But you know what’s the worst failure one can make? One that is captured and put on the internet for everyone to see. Nothing compares to getting your embarrassment immortalized on the web.
So here are a few of those embarrassments that people will never be able to shake off. They might be waking up in cold sweat remembering it right as you’re reading this. Enjoy!

To Insult Women
So, if we all fail all the time, and it is sort of a prerequisite that it will happen sooner or later, why is it so hard to embrace failure? Well, there are few reasons behind it. One can be related to the way we were brough up. A lot of us grew up being praised for our successes only, leading us to believe that if we don’t succeed, there is nothing to be celebrated or appreciated there.
We also tend to identify solely with our successes. We consider our jobs and our achievements the building blocks of who we are. We are doctors, engineers, physicists, librarians, competition winners, bonus collectors, and promotion earners.

To Say Hello To A Ghost
That’s what we ask about when we meet someone for the first time—their most prominent achievements. And we form our opinion about them based on that, often not taking into consideration things they have failed to achieve.
We also tend to compare ourselves to others, which is never a good idea. We see how our former colleagues or classmates are advancing in their careers and are creating families and we start to think we are lagging behind. We see and hear about their healthy or fancy lifestyles and we think we are not doing nearly enough, we’re lazy, and we’re failing at life. This is even further exacerbated by the perfection we see on our social media feeds.

We still use these at work to call between departments. They are pretty indestructible.

To Make This Student Think Before They Ink
Success is all around us. We see athletes winning medals, movie starts attending film premieres, and businessmen succeeding in their ventures. What we don’t see are the grueling training that athletes go through. We don’t see the hundreds of auditions that the actors failed. The multiple times that businessmen had to go back to the drawing board before coming up with something successful is also left behind the curtain.

When you consider all that, it is no surprise that we are so hell-bent on not failing. It’s also understandable why we feel so crushed when things end up not going our way. The good things is, that you can learn to deal with it. And, with some practice, failure won’t feel like such a devastation anymore.

There's a follow-up that got missed. The person who wanted the cat gone got voted out of office while the cat was still "employed" at the library.
Firstly, it’s important to identify that you yourself aren’t a failure. Failure might happen to you, it might be something you experience, but you as a person are not a disappointment. Recognizing that is important. If you think of yourself as someone who has endured failure and still carried on, it might even give you a boost of confidence.

Another good way of dealing with failure is gratitude. Recognizing what you already have can help you gain perspective on things. Sure, you might have not succeeded when delivering a task at work, but it’s also showed you what a supportive team you have and how your boss will always have your back. You might have failed to make a delicious-looking recipe, but it’s nice to know that you have the time and the resources to experiment in the kitchen.

To Meet Your Grandparents
An important part of moving on from failure is looking into it and seeing what you could take away from it. That is really what makes the difference between failure and failure that leads to success. Sure, no one wants to ruminate on a relationship that broke down, but examining it to notice if there were any patterns there that you can work on is really beneficial. It can make your future relationship more fulfilling.

So, all that is to say, that you shouldn’t be afraid to fail. Do it, examine it, and learn from your mistakes. This is what growth is like. Just make sure no one is there to capture your fails and put it on the internet as it might end up a list like this one.

It's been said that "there's no such thing as a stupid question". I'm rethinking that.

CRUSADE! They did many crusades, some of which almost didn’t fail. But at least the Italians got some sweet trade deals
As in crusaders sent by the pope and whose motto was "Deus vult!" ("It's God's will!"). Oh, those Christians!

The Inquisition ? The Crusades? How about Manifest Destiny in the USA?
The Holocaust. Hitler believed that he was doing Christ's work in "opposing the Jews."

I presume that's right off the top of your head. Doesn't take much digging to find a lot more. Or do you mean you can name eight in one particular century?

Is it possible to be able to use modern technology, but be so ignorant that the entire period of the Crusades escapes one? Survey says: YES.
Uhhhhh.,...the crusades.....uhhhh, the Salem witch trials....the KKK,.....uhhhh.....
A mob of Christians in Alexandria in 415 AD attacked a female professor of philosophy named Hypatia when she was on her way home from lectures. They flayed her alive by stripping her skin off, then dismembered her and burned her limbs. Supposedly they also cut out her eyeballs. They did all this because she was pagan and they accused her of Satanism. Look it up. This is true.
Doesn't matter what the answer is, thia person will claim those weren't "real Christians".
Maybe the poster thought "in the contemporary time", and not centuries ago. Christians evolved, Muslims are still living in the Middle ages.
Wow! Someone really asked that question? Really? Can anyone say "Crusades" to the stupid idiot who posted that? Really! Please! Hey stripey! People gave been fighting over religion for centuries!
True, it would be IMPOSSIBLE to name JUST ONE. Impossible. Crusades comes to mind. Spanish Inquisition, Salem Witch Trials, Genocide of indigenous peoples of pretty much ANY nation, especially America, KKK and the Jim Crow South and White "Supremacy", the GOP Republicans... but just one? Nah. Impossible.
Crusades numbers one, two, three, and four (was there another? Can’t remember there are too many). The Spanish and Portuguese in the Americas. The Americans doing manifest destiny. Probably the mob that tried to kill my great-grandma and her community when she was a kid, forcing her to hide in a literal stack of hay before she turned 10. There are many, many more instances.
The Crusades, the Spanish Inquisition and the Salem Witch trials to begin with.
One? why would I bother to pick just one out and name it? It is a major pattern, a huge sticking point, the hypocrisy of Christians as they run off to kill more "heathens". It is known by everyone with even a little education, and it a problem bemoaned everywhere, even by good Christians , for hundreds of years. What sort of a bubble does this idiot live in?
I can pretty easily name at least one instance for each decade going back a couple hundred years then a couple for each century going back to the foundation of Christianity.
If you knew just a tiny bit of History you would have known that there were literally thousands.
The 8 Crusades directed by the Vatican as the "mandate of God" alone are *estimated to have killed between 4 million and 9 million people. Most through the accompanying disease and starvation. *(estimates vary and given the lack of accurate reporting at the time these are little more than guesses)
Comment by a Christian that's never read their book. Also, Slayer and Megadeth have albums full of instances.
Uhmmmmm I'd say a conservative estimate of about 85% of the time a white man has killed anybody it's been done in the name of Christ. Either as an inspiration or as a cover. "oh s**t I killed my wife, Oh wait no she was a witch, christ told me I didn't have to suffer a witch I did the lords work my hands are clean. lets have dinner, oh s**t killed the wife guess I gotta marry my daughter and forcer her to make dinner now, You aint goin to be a witch to will you daughter?" That's just one example I can think of off the top of my head but you know I don't have two thousand years to recount the attrocities of several billion humans.

The hate on the women in the last post is ridiculous. People are mad like they murdered someone just because the mother and grandmother had something done. The comments are just outright vicious. “Accept every body type” unless someone gains confidence by having a minor alteration, then throw every horrible insult at them to make them insecure.
