Succeeding at Failing

I find it strange that in this day and age, we expect everything to come very natural to us and to be very easy.  I could go on about the advances of technology and how it progressively makes people lazy, but that would take forever.  Anyway, back to my thought; in school if you have a test on something, most people would study at least a little right?  Apparently that's unheard of for some people.  Which I find strange...  They'll just take the test without knowing ANY of the material!  Then they proceed to complain about not passing!  Seriously?  That's like walking through a maze in the complete dark and wondering why you keep running into walls and why you can't get out.  It's common sense people.  So if you're wondering if I have any sympathy to those that expect to succeed and end of failing from lack of applying themselves at ALL... yeeaahh... no [:  I really don't [:
