17 People I Wanted To Give A "YOU TRIED" Sticker To
I have been failing so hard lately, I really needed a reminder that I'm not alone. Luckily, the internet is filled with content for any need, including people who tried and failed so spectacularly that their efforts are forever immortalized online. Like this person who attempted to draw Ms. Sabrina Carpenter for their art class:
A+ for effort – I don't knock anyone who's trying!!! But I do love to laugh about it, so here are 16 other people who made me feel a bit better in all my recent failed attempts:
1.This person who tried to fix their heater themselves because they had COVID and were quarantining, only to trip over a pipe and fall through the ceiling:
2.This person who thought dyeing the white couch would be a good way to cover up the stains:
Don't show this to J.D. Vance.
3.This person who tried to hide their Tesla Cybertruck with a Ford decal:
That's one way to do it.
4.This poor soul who tried to hang a curtain rod on their door, only to realize their issue when they took a step back:
5.This person's fiancé who was being thoughtful by carrying the paint down to the basement in the new house, only to realize he was carrying waaay too much:

Pilot and 2 Passengers Survive After Crashing into the Atlantic Ocean at Night. Inside 'Heroic' Rescue
A single-engine plane crashed into the ocean off the coast of Vero Beach in Florida on Sunday, June 1 Multiple agencies responded to the mayday call, and a helicopter was able to spot the three passengers in the water Sheriff Eric Flowers said the survivors "would probably be dead out there today if it weren't for our efforts"Three people were saved in a 'heroic' nighttime rescue after a small plane crashed off the coast of Florida. On Sunday, June 1, at approximately 8:30 p.m. local time, a mayday call came in from the pilot, Sheriff Eric Flowers of the Indian River County Sheriff's Office said at a press conference shared by ABC affiliate WPBF. The pilot was headed to Vero Beach Airport, but crashed into the Atlantic Ocean just a few miles offshore. Fortunately, a helicopter was able to locate three heat signatures in the water and the pilot and both passengers were pulled to safety, Air and Marine Operations, a component of U.S. Customs and Border Protection, confirmed in a statement. Flowers estimated that the three people were treading water for about 45 minutes before they were recovered. The pilot was the most severely injured, reporting pain in his ribs, however, all three were transported to Coast Guard Station Fort Pierce for further medical examination. The crash is now being investigated by the NTSB and FAA. 'This is just an incredibly heroic event,' Flowers said of the joint agency rescue, noting that the passengers 'would probably be dead out there today if it weren't for our efforts.' Flowers said that the mayday call, which provided officials with coordinates, and a witness sighting were crucial in the rescue. A helicopter 'spotted the persons in the water and directed rescue boats to their location,' the sheriff's office said in a statement shared on Facebook. When rescue teams got to the scene, the two passengers 'were pointing' to the pilot. Deputy Pilot Jonathan Lozada noted that the dark surroundings added to the danger of the rescue. Another was the distance from land. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. 'That's a challenge for us. We don't normally fly out, three miles out in the ocean,' said Flowers. 'So, they definitely put their own lives at risk.' Despite the risk, everyone involved in the rescue is grateful they were able to save all of the survivors. 'It's just an incredible story. I can't wait for you guys to hopefully get to a day to talk to the people who were actually in the plane,' Flowers said, addressing the group of reporters. 'Because, on our side, it's phenomenal.'

New Self-Help Book SILHOUETTE Encourages Conversation on Death and Loss
Registered nurse offers comfort and creative perspective in new book from Palmetto Publishing Silhouette Charleston, SC, June 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Registered nurse C. M. Meyers has published a new book on the topic of death and loss to encourage others to contemplate mortality from an art and science perspective. Having witnessed the intricacies of death, both professionally and personally, over the course of her decades-long life and career, Meyers came to view death as something akin to a silhouette. This creative perspective would ultimately lead her to take a deep dive into the topic in an online community on her Facebook page, Collette's Colloquy, and now, in her book debut, 'Silhouette.' Drawing from her knowledge of physiology, psychology, and sociology as well as through interviews and experiences, Collette discusses death and dying in a way that illuminates the shadows while posing thought-provoking questions. 'Death both haunts and intrigues us,' Meyers stated. 'It's final yet enduring, congruently singular while multifaceted.' Addressing the physical, cultural, psychological and spiritual aspects of death, from the vantage point of both the dying and the bereaved, 'Silhouette' demystifies death and grief, urging readers to look beyond absolutes. Whether experiencing loss or facing death, readers are invited to reconsider the perceived finality of death and reframe their outlook on dying and loss. 'We need to have these hard conversations in our culture to allow for greater consideration and even acceptance on the subject of death,' Meyers stated. 'Silhouette' is available for purchase on and About the Author: C. M. Meyers, BSN, RN, PHN is a registered nurse with over 30 years of experience. Through her work and personal life, Meyers has faced death in many forms, losing family, friends and pets. She uses these experiences as a springboard to address the topic of death, aiming to provide comfort and insight and encourage open conversation. Meyers's ultimate hope is that her words will resonate with all readers, whether they are grappling with loss or contemplating their own mortality. Media Contact: C. M.
