You can never reach perfect, but you can get close!

You know what's good? Oreos. Dipped in milk. Preferably double-stuffed Oreos. However, although this may seem like the utmost and perfect combination, nothing can be perfect. The Oreo always drops approximately six and a half crumbs into the milk, depending on if you bit it first or not. Hence,(man, I like that word) nothing can be perfect. Oreos and milk is as close to perfect as you can get.
So what's my point? Well, aside from the fact that I am abnormally pointless,I would like to acknowledge and ponder on the fact previously stated on this post's title. Here are a few statements that prove my point.

- No matter how perfectly you sharpen your pencil, it never fails in the event that your tip will break or wear down, forcing you to re-sharpen it.

- Did I hear someone say "use a pen"?
Nay, nay, my friend, although a pen may seem like the perfect alternative, it is not. It will in time, run out of ink.

- No matter how much makeup she puts on, she will never be able to hide that one obstinate zit under her left eye.

- No matter how organized our mail system is, Canada Post never fails to continuously deliver your house's previous occupants mail to your address, although they moved out three years ago.

- No matter how much athletes practice, they still miss the net at least three times a game.

- Slamming that van door shut used to be the perfect way to reduce stress-then they went and invented the electric doors.

- Coffee at the beginning is the perfect morning beverage. Until you get to the last sip, which has all that scum in the bottom of the cup.

- No matter how delicate and perfect the frosting design on a cake is, it still provokes small children to stick their fingers into it and lick them repetitively.

- No matter how long you spend writing an English essay to the utmost perfection, your teacher will always find the one spelling mistake that cost you a 99%.

These are just some of the many thing that have the potential to be perfect, but are not, due to human incapability.
