How do you deal with failure?

I just do something fun and move on. I really am a pragmatist and accept that I have no control over things like a test I have already taken-- The time to worry about that was before hand and harness that worry into work to avoid the failure I fear.
When I have failed at something, I usually just try it again until I succeed . . . ie strike out with one hottie . . . go date another hottie . . fail a test . . . go date a hottie . .. lose that important job . . . go out with a hottie
Hmm I see a pattern here. But seriously , there are very few problems that don't look better with a hottie on your arm.
If your failure is that you can NEVER get the hottie, try beer.You don't get to 300 losses without being a pretty exceptional goaltender.-- Ben Kenobi speaking of Roberto Luongo

Chemical Ollie, what a great idea Nah.. I think I'll get it on the second one.. But this thread is more than this, it's about failing in general and dealign with it.
Personally I don't want to get used to it anyway. But I think there are more constructive ways of dealing it.In da butt.

I deal with stress by trying to kill myself. It's a good thing I'm such a failure at it.
