hierarchy of fail

The fail rating system; All fails are bad but some require their own particular term. The heirarchy is as follows:
1. Fail - bad but survivable
2. Epic Fail - Worst fail most people acheive, should make you at least consider suicide and/or mass killings to hide your shame.
3. Jail Fail - Name says it all
4. Death Fail - only useable for darwin award nominees
Only dumb MFs don't properly apply the hierarchy of fail.

License Fail

A license fail occurs when someone taking what should be their first driving practical test prepares thoroughly with expensive lessons, has been waiting for months, is supremely confident of their ability to pass, and has even discussed getting insured for their parent's car upon passing...

...Only to discover that, in the test center waiting room, they have the wrong side of their paper provisional license, meaning they cannot be tested, waste the money spent on taking the test, disappoint family and friends and have to wait 3 months for the next available test.

Also known as "pulling a Charlie".
Guy 1- Holy fuck, you know what's worse than failing your driving test?

Guy 2- Nah, what...?

Guy 1- committing epic license fail, that's what *shudders*
