lol @ idiot that buys things like this
TOTAL win for the dude who can sell it.
Wanna start a buisness?
Totally agree… the guy who invented this most definitely was capitalizing on the stupid. Bonus Win for him.
Might be a joke gift thing, I’d buy one if they were less than five dollars as a present for someone, just for the laughs.
Dollars are for the weak my friend. Sterlings are where its at.
I prefer Dubloons.
no s**t
Why are you guys so mean? I think it’s a good idea!
I’ll sell you one for 19.95.
Plus Tax, of course. And S&H. But wait, there’s more!
Good idea? For what? YOU CAN’T REWIND DVDS!!!!
You, my friend, are clearly a master of the obvious. …Failure to pick up on sarcasm…
No, I am a master of RANDOM!!! And DESTINY!!! And the ever so wonderful COOKIES!!!!!! XD
Sorry, I just had to do that. I’m a bit hyper.
i can tell……… i luv how u dont rewind DVDs… BUT NOW, U CAN! xDDDD
My name is Cherry Mortimer, I am more of a moron than Some.
And proud of it~
Sarcasm FAIL
we are mean because u are a troll
If only it made cookies too!!
This is a joke product… Fail.
dude, i think i have to get one of those…. for irony purposes only, of course
How can you tell if a blond has just finished watching a movie?
She’s trying to rewind the DVD!
hahahahah
that’s a joyous moment.
Not quite as bad as the flakeout I had on the idiotic blockbuster cashier who insisted we rewind DVDs. It started when I told him about the “Please Rewind” sticker placed on the back of the DVD case. I told him he should probably remove it so stupid people don’t get all confused. He then informed me that DVD rewinding was indeed necessary. “It spools the content back onto the DVD” he exclaimed.
It gets funnier, when I look at the idiot with utter incredulity as he proudly exclaims: “Don’t feel bad about not knowing, I work around this stuff every day.”
After about 15 minutes of me trying every way possible to remedy his stupid, I finally pulled out my portable cd player, skipped to track 5, then pulled it out, put it in his stereo (I could reach it over the counter) and hit play. It started on track 1. He kinda looked at the stereo funny, and then I informed him that DVDs worked on the same technology.
I shit you not, 20 seconds of silence later, he FINALLY got it, and hung his head in utter shame.
love it.
LOL! classic.
i don’t get it.
And teachers want tax payers to pay MORE for education……
obviously something needs an upgrade cuz good god…
Um, yeah? Because this guy was probably never exposed to a DVD or CD in school, because his school couldn’t afford anything beyond a mimeograph machine?
conservative joke fail.
50% of your swamp shack doesn’t buy a lot of books.
Useless units of measurement Fail.
Well done, oneguy.
15 minutes talking to Blockbuster cashier? Time budgeting Fail.
It also smacks of Bullsh*t…
O.O
there’s a point at which one walks away, hoping one’s daughter does not breed with the rabble at blockbuster.
Maybe it’s just me, but there are some forms of stupid that I just _have_ to rectify. Even though most times it’s as productive as tearing down a brick wall with my forehead, at least I have some hilarious stories of failure for it.
Besides, I had nothing better to be doing, why not make some poor blockbuster idiot realize how very stupid he is.
To be honest, I was hoping to make him cry, but eh, I take what I can get.
Well done dude, something needs to be done about morons who need to struggle to remember how doorhandles work.
Schmuckity schmuckity schmuck. Schmuck schmuck schmuck.
Smartest comment ever. You deserve a cookie…
you know, sometimes i think the comment wars on here are funnier than the pics. not to detract from the pics mind you…
Chez – not to get all ‘duh’ on your ass, but why do you think people
read failblog? It is not for the retarded pictures, but for the
comment wars.
So true.
My word it’s getting claustrophobic in here, isn’t it?
Yes, they will.
Compulsive Idiot Smashing Syndrome, I have it too. It’s the need to show someone how stupid they are, even if it takes the rest of your life.
Epic phail for the ages!
HAHAHAHA THIS REMINDS ME OF MY EPIC 33:1 SPREE.
that is the worst name I have ever seen
LOL!!!!
dood nice :] how could people get that dumb?!
OMG…
I truly admire your patience…
heres your sign
“i shit you not”
Love it ;]
Thank you for this hilarious story.
That is sad. He probably had explained his theory for hundreds of customers.
Way to crush his dreams! Go you!
Your knowledge is Epic Win, while his is a hilarious fail.
OMG ROFL!!! That is the funniest story iv heard for agges!!! CLASSIC!!!!!!!
Nice example :p lol he musta felt sooo embarrassed!
Ha ha ha.
Raw FAIL.
lolz
win for you
fail for him
lol for me
Yeah, but the thing is, the BE KIND REWIND sticker was their security sticker to keep you from stealing vids (pre-broadband days). Probably had to order a thousand or something and didn’t throw ‘em away when they changed formats.
true, but at that point, it doesn’t matter anymore. It isn’t about the sticker, it is about the guys ignorantly proud answer.
I agree that things like that happen, I used to work in a grocery store, nothing makes sense, especially not the isle, but when someone starts to talk to you about where something should be, you no longer care about what it is, it is just the argument that matters and proving yourself right…especially when you are ^^
HA! a classic fail story. you get a win for having the remedy.
HAHAHA!!!
Thats gotta be the funniest thing ive heard in a long time.
hahahahahah thats like so funny!
Total WIN!
I would pay to have been there for that!
WIN
(on your part)
That might be my favorite story of all time. ever. anywhere. really!
The “idiot” blockbuster guy was trying to shit you. Only you took the trouble to educate him. He might have a good laugh afterwards.
*facepalm* ugh… humans these days…
That’s just… Sad beyond all comprehension. And HOW did he get a job there?!
YAY!! HAHA. amazing!
He probably had a DVD player with memory so that if you take a DVD out and put the same one back in it goes back to where it was. This leads some people to think that DVDs need to be rewound.
Ahh the joys of in-store training chaosincarnate ,a double fail then !
Lol, brilliant! I wonder what it actually does…
It’s not the base for a Sybian
Bit small for a sybian base dont you think?
it does NOTHINGGGGGGGG, probebly just plays the thing backward… doe…
zomgwin (besides spelling fail, anyway)
it probably just spins the DVD around for a while
until the failure that bought it thinks its rewinded
or however you would say that
:p
rewound
lol i’ve seen it yesterday in a forum a signature and now its here LOL!

Is anyone else’s RSS feed reader getting redirected to pick up ICanHasCheezburger’s too? WTF?
Unsubscribe and then subscribe to Failblog again. Fail was not included when I did that…
Hi Eric, it’s been fixed now, but you may need to resubscribe. FAIL on our part.
Eric: I’ve no idea why, but yes. Weird.
Yah, tis happening to me too.
RSS FAIL?
LOL!
i kinda don’t like this new layout :/
I prefer it, but it’s too much like ICHC.
You prefer taking it up the ass, too, but it’s too much like watching your Mom with her strap-on doing your Dad.
i´m with aku
the layout is an awful design-fail
Yeah, this rewinder works, i have 2 of them in my home.
@MeP
It works? And what does it do?
Its a gag gift. It even makes a rewinding sound. You can open it up and keep change or other junk in it.
LOL!:D
lol
ive seen it before but its still hilarious
One would only need it if it’s playing in the same device again….(but again you can just hit the “menu” button)
Oh, heh, shows how dumb I can be sometimes, I though it was one of those devices that removes scratches from your discs. You know, like it’s ‘rewinding’ back to when the disc was new.
this is from a photoshop contest on somethingawful.com you all fail at not seeing that this is fake.
Oh well excuuuse us, Mr Internet.
Feckingeejit, you are stupid. IT’S OBVIOUS THAT THIS IS FAKE! Hence, the fact that DVDs do not need rewinding!
Duh. Just duh, moron. You get angry at the stupidest stuff. Try meditating, or doing more or less drugs, because the amount you’re doing isn’t right for you. Prick.
speaking of irrational anger…
Great, just great.
I second your comment. Why is almost everything on this site stolen? Almost nothing here is submitted by its ACTUAL author. They just take some original content, MSPaint the word “FAIL” on top of it, and call it awesome.
I know people who would actually buy a DVD rewinder and think they needed to use it.
Georgia Education definitely FAILS!
http://www.momstop.blogspot.com
Be kind, please rewind.
You laugh, but two weeks ago a substitute teacher called my colleague to ask how to rewind the DVD he had set up for her to play for the kids… And no, as a teacher I feel that we have no need of more money for the education system, just smarter spending and SMARTER PEOPLE!
I can actually see that happening…if the person honestly thought you could rewind a dvd, that’s one thing, but if the teacher just couldn’t pull the right words out of her head quick enough, it’s possible she actually wanted to know how to re-queue to a particular spot on the DVD that had already played; not rewind, but back up.
If she was seriously asking how to rewind, though, that’s pretty funny
it is intended to be a gag gift. but it also is a disc cleaner.
This is a DVD scratch remover. I saw one just like it (but different colours) in a Japanese store today with the name “DVD Repairer” (リペーア) instead.
OMG you cant fail any worse than that!!!
Am I the only one that remembers this being on Bash?
http://bash.org/?165759
I just had a genius idea
DVD rewinders
it spins and whirrs and stupid people buy them
And that’s from years ago, folks.
Bash is down…. my world is over
Omg… someone just said; “haha, that’s a fail, because you can’t rewind DVD’s!”
…
¬_¬
Was that a BIGGER Fail?
We used to joke about these when I worked at radioshack… Nice to see someone actually made one.
lol i want one of those, just to have it as a joke
My mum still won’t listen to me when I tell her to stop trying to rewind the DVD’s every time before putting them back in the box.
Unfortunately, this both is and isn’t fake.
It’s a real item, but it’s a joke gift. Like the “T.V. Remote for Men”
The button just spins it. It’s not meant to be taken seriously. This is a new age flower water squirter.
Yup, it decribes it here http://www.amazon.com/DVD-Rewinder/dp/B000NK7E7Y/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=miscellaneous&qid=1214194869&sr=8-1
“Product Description
Never pay another DVD rewind fee again! Compatible with all disc formats: DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW, CDR, CDRW, Audio CD, VCD. Multi-region, code-free rewinder capable of rewinding all 6 region DVD’s including RCE/REA encoded discs. NOTE: this product is intended as a novelty. All disc and MP3 media are direct access and do not truly require “reqinding.” However, it is very fun to hear the sounds, and watch the lights of this product. “
“requinding”? Epic fail
Many plastic electronics are made in China.
If China had the more humane Retard Euthanasia Policy instead of the forced-abortion One-Child policy, we’d not have things like this.
(Disclaimer: Some aborted babies would’ve been smart enough to be a member of MENSA and change the world with their ingenuity. That’s why they need a retard exterminating policy so they test every child in China, and any kid with an IQ of under 100 would get euthanized, and their organs donated and sold. Better for the country, don’t you think?)
But anyway, for the love of God, that had BETTER be a Photoshop or else there was a retard with a whole lot of money! (For development, marketing, etc.)
“A fool and his money are soon parted.” – Thomas Tusser
This was one of the stupidest and most offensive comments ever. And btw, most of the stuff made in China is made for western companies, i.e. us, which would make it a China commercial win, Western World planet resources allocation fail.
want want want
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOOLOLOLOLOLOLOL… lol…
unnecesarry
Scrollbar win. Unnecessary lol fail. But can you accualy say LOLOLOLOLOLOL…? I can
grandmother uses something like that for VCRs to rewind movies while she wants to watch something else
Back in my day, when DVD’s were new, people thought they had to be rewinded like video tapes.
Brilliant.
That’s a classic… what a dumb ass!
It seems that site has a java virus downloader on it. Beware
Um, ok, yah. WHoever invented this isn’t that bright….
the really sad thing is, if you made those, you would sell at least a couple hundred. man kind fail
ouch
Hahahaha, he probably did that when dvds first came out to capitalize on the stupid factor…… i want to work for this guy
Now on sale for only $39.95!
Just an FYI… I am the “inventor” (taken lightly) of this actual product. Love the comments. Yes, there are many people who buy these. Also, we have gotten actual support calls from people who were truly convinced that they need this item – all of them were purchased on their behalf.
To the point of “Please be kind, rewind” stickers. Yes, they are actually used on DVDs. This was the original impetus behind this crazy toy. My brother and I were skiing in Colorado and stopped at a grocery store for a movie, and YES, there was a sticker.
I have been told by Blockbuster and others that the stickers were originally used for inventory purposes. But….
Yes, we have sold lots. No, I have not retired – I live Dilbert every day as do many of you.
BTW, the site http://www.dvdrewinder.com is currently down due to overload on the server. So, keep it tagged for Holiday purchases – and of course, White Elephant gift exchanges.
Bill W.
Woah, you mean it actually “rewinds” DVDs? You SELL these things? Holy crap… I didn’t know the education system was that bad.
you didn’t even read the comment did you?
The sad fact is that these things are ACTUALLY for sale:
http://cgi.ebay.com/DVD-REWINDER_W0QQitemZ110296100091QQcmdZViewItem
is this a gag gift or what? lol
ROFL i couldn’t tell why it was a fail for like 2 min
Alot of failblog fails because alot of the content on this site has been altered.
thats the worst fail i’ve ever seen
i would expect to pay 300 dollars for this product
hg
LMAO its a peice of crap insta FAIL
i’d buy it, if i was 80 years old and lived in the mountains and had no fkin idea where he was
I bet it’s actually a DVD cleaner. Either that, or it’s photoshopped, because I don’t think there’s that many pepole who are that stupid that a company will think it can make a profit making one of these.
Oh sweet god….
That’s amazing. I wonder if I could get one of these and dupe someone with it.
It was probably made when DVDs weren’t popular yet so people would fall for anything.
Lol, have thought about it and than… “Hey! D:”
Hey I bought one of them. Works really good. Only thing is, sometimes we forget to rewind it. Luckily they rewind really fast! =D
+100000 if you can sell it
You all got PWNED!!
