LATheatresports every Friday night!

Failings
One of my favorite things in this cruel world is fail videos. Something about watching unsuspecting souls try to do something amazing and wonderful knowing they will fail with great pain and suffering fills my schadenfreude needs and wants. This compilation is quite dandy. Enjoy! Read more »
