It all really depends whether or not you really wanted to succeed or not. If you did, then you did something good. If you really wanted to fail, and you actually succeeded for the better, than that's good too. If you wanted to fail, and you made the situation worse by succeeding, then that sucks, doesen't it?

You've failed. And Thor was right, you wasted time. "succeeding" at failing is an invalid definition of success.

And technically, you've succeeded. But you, in fact, failed, because you didn't get what you wanted in the end.

And I love coffee.

i don't know, man...if you succeed to fail you've also failed to succeed. So, in itself, it's really just a balance of opposite forces, like yin and yang.

...and yes, a waste of time.


...ick, coffee

so in this line of thinking if you try to fail, and fail, does this mean youve succeeded? and if youve succeeded then you didnt fail so its a paradox, and will tear the universe apart (bttf reference) but if a physical paradox existed what would happen?
