179 Failures in Communication »

Me

Oh, hope you didn’t actually want to USE the garage.

tycobb9999

I think it’s actually a crucifix. They just wanted to make it much bigger than the cross in the neighbors yard to the right. I always hate it when neighbors try to outdo each other.

 
omg

i think what happened was korn

 
mike wratch

its two ‘lanes’ look at the car on the right for size

 
 
flutterdoc

Waiter…..there’s a POLE in my soup….

Guy

Bad Joke made worse FAIL

 
 
Ben Dova

OOOh, that is a big stick!!!

Pescador_Gama

sir… you asking for a bend over comment?

Dom

Bend over and Ill show you a bend over comment

 
 
 
a person

That’s photoshopped
no city would be that stupid

First!

The fact that “cities” are this stupid is what makes this so funny and believable.

asdf

It’s a flag pole, you can see the rope going down the side of the pole. and there is plenty room on either side of the driveway to drive a car. unobservant FAIL.

Joe Schmoe

Flagpole is thinner.

Size fail, just like the rest of you.

 
 
your mom

haha actually the home owners were pwned. she complained that she didn’t want the pole in front of her picture window and made such an annoyance of herself that they put it there.

 
 
slaps

It’s not fake. I live in that city, Rockhampton, QLD, Australia. It’s on Farm St.

jinx

wait, it’s STILL there? more than 24 hours after it was put there? hm… maybe one of the benefits of living in a litigious society? (i.e., i don’t see anyone in the u.s. putting up with that for very long)O

AA

Well, it’s been there for over a year now - although in the last couple of days the electricity company has been seen hanging around it, so there’s a chance they’re actually thinking of attempting to move the pole. Oh, I hope not :D

Hello all fellow Rockhampton people! Screw the cows, we have a famous pole!

 
 
 
Saul

My parent’s home town in Puerto rico had a telephone pole in the middle of the street. They just removed it this year. (3 years after a plaza was designed near it)

Yes, cities can be stupid. (Should have gotten a picture. Damn)

 
 
farrex

maybe they drive a motorcycle…

 
 
 
elblogchapin

lol! super FAIL

 
Lemakn

Maybe they drive mini coopers.

 
 
ff rick

Gee Ocifer, Yes Drinking I have and that pole…………………….

 
lurrrrrker

“Fine! Fine you little brat! You want a basketball hoop in the driveway?! How about one 100 feet tall? Let’s see you win at horse now!”

 
Kit

“Daaaad, I need the new Nikes! Everyone has them! How else am I going to dunk at 100 feet in the new basketball court when I suck this badly? COME ON! Do you want me to fail at life?!?”

First!

This comment fails at life.

Fail win?

 
 
 
PongGod

LOL! That’s awesome!

 
Anomnomnomymous

Scan is finished! No driveways were founded!

anon

Comment win.

I think the real fail is that hideous blue house next door, actually.

ReTARDIS

I think that is actually called “Robin’s Egg”. :)

ButhedaBunzai

Robin’s egg? As in the color? YES but don’t teach people new colors.

A once great comedian said that if a male knows more than 8 colors he is gay.

BEWARE OF WHAT YOU TELL THEM

SUOMYNONA

How can you be sure that the commentor ISN’T gay or a woman?

 
aaaaanon

red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet
!
if you know one more color than the rainbow, you’re gay! : P

 
Apache

#FFFFFF

That’s a coloUr.

Definitely not gay though!

 
Apache

I could acttually name you 16777215 more colours :D

Still not gay though.

patches11

Wanna know how you know you need help? When you say something like that. Even moreso when you say something like that and expect it to come across as amusing or cool.

Or is it really only when you know more powers of 2 than you have fingers and toes?

Is #FFFFFF a presence of all light, or a reflection of all light? Or perhaps it is the absence of no light? Don’t ask GLaDOS. (cake fail?)

 
 
RETfiRD

Brown

oh shi..

actually saying indigo and violet instead of purple seems a little gay to me

 
 
 
 
Timm

ITS THE BLUE SCREEN TO YOUR SPY WARE
LIKE THE DRIVEWARE TO YOUR BLUE HOUSE NEIGHBOUR
XP i dunno anymore….

blo

This comment is so fail I don’t know where to begin.

 
 
Grimbling

Is it *painted* that colour? I thought it was just those blue tarpaulins they sometimes put around buildings while they’re still under construction.

 
 
 
Karen

If that happened to me, someone’s @$$ would be in a sling, and it wouldn’t be mine!

munch

AND, said hanging @$$ would be suspended from the utility pole they themselves placed.

Karen

But of course. That neighborhood looks like it needs some major decorations. :-D

 
 
 
joe random

Is it a utility fail or a driveway fail? Or perhaps they were just getting back at the owners of the house for not paying the bill?

Mudd

Sad to say this happens a lot. Especially in trendy areas. They build a house, garage, whatever & then demand the utilities to move their pre-existing equipment gratis. Too egotistical to just look at the space before designing the pile o’trash.

coyote

This is a trendy area? You have got to be kidding me.

Malfeasant

he said especially in trendy areas, not exclusively in trendy areas

 
 
jonny

It does happen a lot, but not just trendy areas with new houses. I’ve lived in communities where they’ve had to upgrade the grid, move poles, etc. The houses are there already and be damned if you happen to have a driveway that falls within the spacing of the poles.

 
 
 
Hello

does anyone know where this is?

Bob Dole

It’s at the corner of Adobe and Photoshop.

Captain Obvious

I mean, for fuck’s sake, this isn’t even remotely believable. I give them credit for getting the shadows correct, but this is just nonsense. But go ahead, call it a fail if you want.

Searley

Google Maps street view was launched in Australia in the last week and you can see on here that it is clearly an electricity pole in the middle of the driveway. The address is 413 Farm St, Rockhampton, Queensland Australia.

 
 
 
Danometer

… and it’s an OLD Photochop, like 2.x or 3.x

 
 
fara

I remember seeing this in our local newspaper at least a few years ago. I’m pretty sure it’s in Australia here, and there was some wankery going on between the builder, and the owners, as the builder (obviously) failed at reading the plans, and this was the result.

Definitely not a photoshoppy, coz, dude, it was in the newspaper - in print. It must be trufax.

Malfeasant

because, of course, everything that appears in print HAS to be true

 
 
Matt

Actually yes i know where it is. Its in a city called rockhampton in queensland australia. I saw it about 10 years ago now lol i was puzzled when i saw it as well fucken wankers
