Today was such a horrible day. My favorite arcade closed down as well as my favorite place to buy games. [...] I've got nothing to live for.

So you previously lived for going to the arcade and/or video game store? We should all have such high aspirations.
 
HOLY SH!T! You mean PA actually FAILS people on the drivers' test?! 😱
I always kinda assumed they handed them out to anyone who had a thumb and wasn't profoundly retarded....
wow....
Do you have thumbs???
 
You'll get it next time. Don't worry about it... just look on the bright side. Hope you're alright... just hang in there.
 
Because I'm a piece of fvckin' sh!t who can't do a goddamned thing right.

Yeah, pretty much. There's not much left for you to do anymore - you might as well end it all now.
 
Chalk it up to experience. Failing... succeeding... everything is simply an experience. And experience is a great thing. You won't learn anything from death.
 
What part of the test are you having problems with? Generally, they will tell you why you failed. Did you have problems with the same part twice or with a different part this time?

Dave

What part did you fail???
 
Relax, we all mess up. It's part of life, and a big part of how we learn. Practice, study, and don't get too nervous the next time.
 
Even if he might be looking for attention... why post the replies you guys have been? I mean honestly... come on... there is no reason for it. If your just going to be a dick and taunt him then just say nothing at all. I'm not saying he seriously might harm himself... but wouldn't you feel pretty bad if one of your comments pushed it over the line? Not saying it's gonna happen... but come on why push it in the first place? Some of you are real dicks.
 
I wish my problems were as simple as yours. I could write a 5 page essay on why my lfe sucks beyond belief. Move on and take an optomistic view of things. If I didn't have an optomistic view on my life, I would have put the bullet in my head years ago.
 
wtf
its a frickin license


ne way u get the license and then u have to deal with the headache of traffic


chill out, take it again, no biggy

Man, your favorite arcade closed down AND you got a cold? And you haven't offed yourself yet?

lol
I can't believe how dramatic he's makikng this thing out to be.

Jeez you failed the test so what ? take it again. Contemplating suicide because you got a cold, failed a test, and your favorite arcade closed down? Dude please off yourself now and keep it to yourself.

What the hell is up with these type of posts, ones like "I can't get a gf" to even this one.

Maybe you weren't meant to drive ? Have you considered that public transportation might be a better option for you ?
Have you practiced your parking and such ?

You have other issues if you're contemplating suicide on such small things whether you're serious or not.

I totally agree with this one.
 
i failed the first two times because the examiners were dumbfocks. the third time i passed w/ flying colours--in the middle of a huge snowstorm--go figure. i'm an excellent driver. moral of the story, 3rd time's the charm.
 
I wouldn't feel bad if one of my comments caused him to off himself. Most people who commit suicide are truely pathetic in my opinion. They can't handle their own problems, and in many cases push it onto other people after they're dead. On top of it you have this guy who hasn't even mentioned a serious issue he is dealing with, only small things he will not even remember in 10 years.
 
umm... just pratice then take it over again until you pass.
and if you keep failing then get some lessons to see what your doing wrong.

*edit* read your update

there are far crappier stuff that happens in life then something like getting your drivers license.. you can always just take the road test again. hell take it 100x if you keep failing.

There arent alot of 2nd chances in life :-(
