20+ People Who Faced Failure, but Did Not Become Discouraged. They Saw it as a Reason for Laughter

We all have better and worse days, times when everything goes just as we wanted or had planned, and other days when we would have preferred to stay in bed and sleep under a pile of blankets. These are days that you just wish would end, but after a while, you tell stories about them as an anecdote to make you laugh.

Several people have posted images that illustrate these “memorable” days, and CHEERY wants to share some of them with you so that your day can be better than the folks on our list.
