» 43 Failures in Communication

  1. scooter says:

    Doesn’t seem like the end of the world to me. Probably should have it on a surge-protector anyways.

    Or is it ‘fail’ as in ‘this picture is on a humor site but has no comedic value?’

  2. Will says:

    if you pay close attention, the wire has not been uncoiled yet, and if the guy just did that, the wire would be a hell lot longer.

  3. Simon says:

    The wire that has not been uncoiled doesn’t look like it will uncoil into a mains lead.

    Mind you, the photo that I’m looking at looks more contrived than popular music.

  4. Hunter says:

    The coiled wire is the video wire. :P

  5. huskerdont says:

    Posed = fail

  6. Chinski says:

    Haha its not about specifically whats happening in the photo, its about whats happening in the photo represents. That sh*t is hillarious, if you people dont think its funny you yourselfs, fail.

  7. briandevine says:

    First of all the power line is at full extension. The coiled cord is for the “video in” feed.

    Secondly Chinski is correct, it’s not a failure of the person pictured, but the person who installed a TV that cannot be plugged in.

    • Alltat says:

      Two words: extension cord.

      Also, even if the cable was a decimeter or two longer, it would still be useless. It’s not as if you would actually have a power cable going across the room like that…

  8. tracer says:

    I guess they haven’t invented extension cords yet in that country….

  9. [...] escrevem um FAIL garrafal, e publicam. Pode parecer besta, mas dá uma olhada nisso, ou nisso, e me diga se não é o [...]

  10. stmichaelsspark says:

    so i have to comment , i’m the related post 3-16-08 thank you so much for putting into visual what i could only describe ha ha ha i love the pic and for those who don’t think it’s funny…………well i don’t know-time to lighten up

  11. Bleeah says:

    For those of you who think that this is so funny, well great, but I’m sorry, this just isn’t up to the standard of FAIL. It’s like a Marmaduke comic in the middle of a Calvin and Hobbes book. It should be somewhere else.

  12. DrumRobC says:

    this fail is a fail. uncoil the cord and/or use a surge protector and/or extension cord.

  13. FAIL Geeks! says:

    [...] Hahahahaa! ¡A mi me pasó! [...]

  14. Kerrisan says:

    Extension cord WIN!

  15. Max says:

    ever heard of extension cables? They were specificly invented to make this picture NOT A FAIL!

  16. Carly says:

    The only thing about this picture is that bloke looks like someone I work with, otherwise it’s uninteresting.

  17. Hauntzor says:

    that guy’s stupid’ the wire’s still coiled XD

  18. FRILA says:

    OMG THIS GUY LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE MY OLD SCIENCE TEACHER MR JONATHON T NOLDE!!!!!!!! IF THIS IS HIM I WOULDN’T BE SURPRISED!!! OMFG!!! THIS IS WEIRD!!!

  19. tuba says:

    I think fail is here that guy spent all his money to 17″ lcd tv and some moron thinks its funny that there is not 50 kilometer cords :P

  20. Pit says:

    the fail in the pic is that HE probably installed the tv without testing if the cable is long enough

  21. cole-da-mole says:

    more like extension cord fail.

  22. Gaggly says:

    Penis

  23. LD0ne says:

    oh boy… i’d be so pissed… thank god for extensions…

  24. crazy 88 says:

    Chuck Norris would just put one finger in the socket and touch the end of the cord and watch the tv

    • Scott says:

      You think he could do it with one finger?!?! Man that’s impressive, I thought it would take at least two.

  25. Cubs Fan says:

    oh no he has to walk to the garage and get an extension cord!!!

  26. Brian says:

    Fair enough, without context this not as funny as a drunk co-ed lighting a cigarette form the wrong end.

    This is a picture from my office building where the people who installed new monitors didn’t bother to think about the constraints of the install. As a designer I thought it was hilarious that a Fortune 500 company invests in new technology only to fuck up the most basic component.

    We do have extension cords in my country, and apparently there are a lot of people out there who want to insure the extension cord producers have steady profits. I mean why do something right the first time when you can pay more money to fix it.

  27. Woo Woo says:

    It’s called an extension cord. Problem solved!!!
