There is the old saying, “If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again!” And, while that is great, I much prefer saying, “If at first you don’t succeed, then give it another go or pay someone to do it for you.”
However, the people on this list don’t give up so easily! Please enjoy these 40 people who are doing their best!
These Smiley Buns Didn’t Turn Out How They Expected…

The one with liquid melting out of just its eyes is particularly harrowing and I don’t know why. Oh, wait, no I do: It’s because it looks like its eyeballs are melting out of its head!
“She’s trying her absolute best to eat that mozzarella stick!”

The struggle is real here! Legend has it that she is still stretching that one mozzarella stick to this day!
They Tried Their Best To Put Up This Poster…

I think that we could ask the very same thing of the person who put up this damn display! Because I don’t think that when display up putting brain they used their!
“It’s harder than you think to stop your kid from driving nowadays!”

Modern problems require modern solutions! This is actually quite a good way to stop your keys from being stolen on nights out! Just lug them around in a safe all night!
It Must Have Been A Little Too Cold For Him To Go Outside!

That is one of the most perfect pawprints in snow that I have ever seen! That’s a proper, “Oooh, on second thought I think I’ll head back to bed” vibe.
“Oh dear, dad tried to print a video…”

What a shame he didn’t even manage to PrintScreen it when it had the tab for the song’s opening up. I mean, you only really need four notes for people to know what you’re playing.
Dear Lord! What Have They Created?

This takes the idea of “Got your nose!” to a whole new level! She hasn’t just got your nose… she is your nose!
Their Intentions Were Good!

Changing one word in a sentence can really make all the difference to the overall meaning! Better keep that hood up!
“My white cat attempting to hide so I can’t clip his nails.”

I don’t see anything suspicious here except some furry blinds! I bet that it’s sitting on the other side thinking, “Ha! I am invisible…”
“There was an attempt to spread suicide awareness.”

I wonder how many people decided to show up? If I had to put money on it, I’d say not a lot!
“I appreciate the attempt UPS, but I don’t think that’s going to work…”

The damn mat even has holes in it! Maybe if they had a mat that wasn’t transparent this might have worked…well, maybe?

In fairness, this guy is lucky that it didn’t work. I mean, can you imagine Batman turning up for no reason? He’d be furious!
“They tried their best to build a safe and cosy nest!”

Look, minimalism is very in when it comes to modern decorating! This pigeon is clearly just more “with it” than any of the other pigeons around!
“You sure you’ve seen a horse before?”

I really pity the horses that this artist had met if they looked like this! That horse has seen some stuff, some truly terrible stuff!
“I’m trying to figure out what kind of disability is this?”

All that I can hear when I look at this poor cartoon man is hideous screaming and wailing!
This Source Is Highly Secretive…

Pfft, you can ask all you like, Tom McEldroon, but you sure as hell won’t get what you want! Life isn’t fair. Get used to it, Tom!
The Best Black Friday Sale Around… Sort Of!

I just don’t think that I could ever bring myself to pay anywhere near that much for a pair of trainers!
But…It Doesn’t Work?

This is actually quite an inadvertently good way of looking at the education system. Which one is getting in the way, do you think?
“Come and see our new highway, you’ll go nuts!”

One insider added to this: “I’m a civil engineer, we make this stuff all the time. Don’t think we are not aware, we are very aware.”
“Attempted to take a cute picture of me and my dog. This was the result.”

A few people pointed out that this one is kind of like a real-life Snapchat filter. However, it is so much better than that!
“So my girlfriend attempted to sew me a monkey…”

I don’t know why, but I can’t help but find this thing to be one of the most strangely adorable things I’ve seen in a long time! You couldn’t give it to a kid though, it’d give them terrible nightmares!
“Woman buys an ‘ugly lamb’ cake and manages to make it even uglier.”

“Okay kids, here is your Easter treat! Say hello to the lamb of forgotten souls!”
“Hooray! Praise be unto him and his furious anger!”
“My 5 year old’s attempt to forge my signature. Nailed it.”

People were always asking me to sign and write their fake notes when I was in high school as my handwriting was the neatest. I never did it, of course!
“When your catch, catches what you were trying to catch, while being caught.”

All I can hear when I look at this is the voice of one of the crabs saying, “If I’m going down, I’m taking all of you people with me!”
“I’ve waited my entire life to see someone actually try this.”

I particularly like how the girl working there just looks like she is thinking, “I’m not getting paid anywhere near enough to deal with this stuff”
“This is still one of my favorite things I’ve witnessed on the highway.”

I am still waiting for the day when I look at a Smart Car and don’t feel bad feelings.
“Tried to take a selfie at JFK. Caught this gem before I could figure out how to reverse the cam.”

You know what? She’s owning that pose though! I love her energy. I wish that I had this much confidence in myself!
“It’ll Go!”

“Dave, it’s not going to fit in. I’m telling you!”
“Look, you’ve got no faith, Anne. That’s why it won’t fit!”
“No, it won’t fit because of physics!”
“My 39-week pregnant wife went to the store to ‘get stuff for dinner’. This is what she came home with.”

I’m struggling to identify the problem here. Is this not what dinner looks like?
“I tried to grow potatoes, 10 weeks after I get this.”

This is what all those dietitians mean when they say stuff like, “You can lose weight and still eat what you want! It’s all about portion control!”
“My bearded dragon trying to get on his hammock.”

I get it, man. I was going to say something like “this is me trying to get out of bed in the morning,” but, really, this is me at all times.
“Caught this little guy trying to evolve. Threw him right back in the water.”

You had your chance already! Some of y’all made it out of the water and some didn’t. You made your choice.
“Local dentist is passing off the turd emoji as toothpaste.”

She’s actually doing so pretty well. Though, if you use that much toothpaste, I’m very scared of you.
“T’was a bit hot today out today.”

Aww, don’t give up little buddy. I know you’ve been in that holder for a long time, but I promise, they’ll burn you soon!
“Went hiking for the first time in a while. My hiking boots are just as out of shape as I am.”

Hey, good on you for trying to get out there again. I think your boots still need a little more motivation though.
Not-So-Good Morning.

This pancake looks like it went through a horrific accident. Well, I guess being cooked on a pan would actually be that horrific accident.
“My wife left me instructions for dinner. She thinks she married a moron.”

Well, surely she’s known you long enough to have a reason for these instructions. Do you have any microwave-related incidents in your past?
“Carnivorous…what?”

Oh, you know, just the carnivorous. Lots of carnivorous things out there — could be multiple, didn’t have the time to specify.
Always Remember To Check Every Reflection!

It is particularly excellent how the smudge on the mirror also makes it look like she has snotted everywhere! Wonderful.
