Which is it? Learning more about the 24-Hour Telephone Fear Program, or a discussion about your phobia?
Fail!?
Yes, or else it wouldn’t be on this site. You don’t have to point out the painfully obvious as a replacement for “First!”
Do you realize that as long as there are people who get offended and/or whine and/or get pissed and/or patronize and/or insult every time when a dumbX posts “FAIL” or “First”, there will be people to do it, and the more you reply, the more motivated they will be to do it.
Hell, it even made ME want to do it once just to piss them Xholes.
Master of the obvious WON !
And you would be the master of GAY!
and you would know
BECAUSE OF ALL THE BUTTSECKS
Clarification win!
Digg it!
in soviet russia, master gays you
it’s not funny unless it makes sense. for those who can’t seem to figure out why this doesn’t make sense, “gay” is not, has never, and will never be a verb.
You want to make it a verb, big man?
Watch yer butt!
cant… its behind me…
You poor, deprived person. =[
thx 4 careing
Sorry I’m too busy watching other people’s butts. If you know what I mean mean

There. GAY MEANS HAPPY YOU NINNY!
I don’t care that people usurped it to describe homosexual men. They need to make up their OWN name the same was Lesbians did. (Taken from the Isle Of Lesbos where the female Greek poet Sapho lived.) And leave gay as HAPPY!
Fine, we’ll call gay men Fire Islanders.
OH NOOOOZ!! we can’t ruin “gay” because “happy” might get offended!!! but we can ruin lesbians (people from the island lesbos) to describe homosexual women? Double Standards in the face.
If you rearrange the letters in his name, it would be Kolan….
Tink abowt it kthxbi? Itz fud 4 thawt.

How it probably works is the person rings up, and they say “Congratulations, you’ve overcome your fear!” Then go and post some statistics on their website.
WIN!
That’s not cost effective though…
LOL!!
I think the best thing to do would be to send round a dwarf to pick up the phone, throw the fearful person to the ground, and then proceed to beat said muppet over the head with the phone screaming “IT’S A FUCKING PHONE! GET OVER IT!”
Thank you.
You’re so insensitive.
I can relate to these people. I had this office phone once that kept electrocuting my lips at random times. I’d be in the middle of a conversation and “ZAP!” I got to where I was literally afraid to use that phone.
One time on a lunch break, I was on one of those 1-900-talk-dirty to me lines, and the girl was talking dirty to me, and out of nowhere I go “AHHHHH!!!!”
She was like “you’re done already?” “That’s a record!”
Actually dialing one of those numbers FAIL.
you stand on the left side of the escalator don’t you?
No. He stands UNDER the escalator
you doin da derty foneseks wrong.
or were you duin da dirty telegraffseks? dat mite shocks youz!!!
Wait… You work as mall security, going by the name. You actually called one of those numbers instead of doing your job? That scares me. I’m never going to a mall again.
Haha, as a person with phone phobia, I can assure you that *can’t* be working for *anyone*!
As a person who taunts people with phone phobia, I think that *you* suck *hard*.
Phonephobiatitis hater?
Ha hah – phonaphobia is a serious problem for many people! Ha ha ha hah – that’s funny!
Another telephonophobic here. No kidding! You can tell they put a whole lot of thought into that program, lol.
To the morons saying “just get over it”. *EYE ROLL* Gee, why didn’t I think of that?
LMAO..
Ring, ring, ring, ring… THE TERRORPHONE!
“A frush? What the fuck is a frush?”
It’s cellular, modular, It’s a gonna torture ya

Dancing badgers, anyone?
“Click here to discover our most successful program for Telephone Fear”
how many times have they tried… and failed?
I became to realize that people with thelephone fear are verry close to the fact that i have internet fear and im typing this right now… with lots of fear… and loathing…. in las vegas.
spelling FAIL. WTF is verry?!
You’re in Vegas and online at the Fail Blog…
I suddenly feel better about myself.
I’m hoping your name is a misspelling of “Naples.”
Movie reference Fail
To overcome your fear of commenting, please reply to this message with some words of your own.
hmmm, and how should that help?……oh wait I did it. I’ve overcame my commenting fear!!! How much do I owe you?
I’m teh king of pr0n !
he said “reply” not “lie”
Hm….can’t reply without the lie.
yes you can, that’s why lie is spelled with an ie instead of a y
Maybe he does it standing up.
that would be “lay”
omgwtfbbg!!!1!
zomg?

Billy Bob guy
BILLY BOB GORDON?
i know of a chronic fatigue syndrome clinic that was run at 7 in the morning
CFS often comes with insomnia, so that’s not quite as crazy as it sounds.
fair call.
just found it a odd/funny
In the town where I grew up, there was a depression clinic on Downer Avenue.
Oh…and the ob/gyn in my women’s health group is named Dr. Clapp.
Ok, ok, so these aren’t fails…but I think they are HIGH-lariously funny!
My dentist’s name was Dr Beaver. Sounds more like an ob/gyn.
My attorney’s name is Sue More, does that count?
Not really a fail. If you have 24 hour phone fear you use the webform.
If you only have 23.5 hour phone fear you can call them (before you go 24 hour fear)
But i do wonder is this regular phone fear or the 24/7 phone fear variant
I don’t think you understand it. It’s not like “I’m scared of the phone!!!…. unless it’s 8:30 to 9:00.”
I had a mild form of phone fear. I never wanted to call anyone and I hated answering the phone. Sometimes I pretended I was in the bathroom so that my brother would get it.
I have a fear of answering the phone while I’m watching internet porn. It would be so embarrassing if I forgot to mute it.
What positions does the internet like?
I totally phone phobia. It’s really the only time I have anxiety is dealing with the phones. I haven’t figured out why. Answering the phones at work sucks!
I get phone fear too when I’m late on my bills.
Lol!
I hope I dont get late on my bills when im older…. that would SUCK.
damn, company can’t even set up a hotmail account to handle these freaks?
Who uses hotmail these days?
Hotmail == MSN;
MSN == GAY;
would you rather go with pedophile yahoo?
Prior post reference WIN
comment win!!
It’s not like gmail is any better. No folders? C’mon.
however, there are better ways to have e-mail, i.e. Microsoft Outlook
*cringes in anticipation of the many Gates Haters*
No folders? I’m pretty sure you’re doing it wrong. Gmail is the best web email out there.
Gmail is ok.
The chat is laggy as HELL though… It sucks when im chatting with my Girlfriend and it disconnects….
u pour pour thing
Do people really have a fear of telephones?
That Direct Line advert must have people bricking it.
Anybody outside of the UK, it’s a magic red phone on wheels.
AAARGH
we have that ad in germany too…very scary
You know the receptionist at THAT hotline has the easiest damn job in the world. Just sitting there, reading a TV Guide, occasionally looking at a telephone that will never ring, then going back to their TV Guide, maybe do a crossword puzzle, read their horoscope, look back at the telephone, etc.
boredom can be vary stressful.
I have a fear of boredom and stress that varies.
“If that phone don’t ring one more time,
I think I’ll lose what’s left of my mind.”
Or you could loose your mind, though “loosing is not a option”.
Referencing prior post win! He’s on a roll!
i dont get this one?
how could i know?
just call the number. You’ll get it then, I promise
really, why is that a question.
Why is that not?
I don’t know, you tell me.
Ho.
Did you mean “Ho, Ho, Ho” Klaus?
I mean you can’t turn a ho into a housewife. Hoes don’t act right.
XD WIN
ring ring…ring ring
guy: ‘hello?’
other end: CONGRATS! Youve overcome your fear of phones. bye.
beeeeeeeeeeep.
That was my first thought. With a program that perfect, how can the success rate be “close to 100%?”
Ring ring…
Other end: “CONGRATS! You’ve….”
Guy: “OMFG, I can’t handle this shit!” *CLICK*
Other end: “Well, back to 99.9% again.”
…
Timing FAIL…
It’s a fail for Sprint on the advertising at top right.
This is probably refering to people with social anxeity. It’s diffult for many of them to converse with people over the phone, but not imppossible, and like it says there’s also an online form… This is not fail worthy!
Most people with social anxiety are ugly as hell anyway. I’d have social anxiety too if I looked like Lou Holtz following a three day coke bender.
You know what’s impossible? Spelling “impossible” correctly.
My biggest fear is to post a comment on this site.
then try to post a comment in soviet russia
in soviet russia comments post YOU!
inevitable, saddening. several adjectives flood my head at the moment, but if I comment further, I know the next user will “in soviet russia comments reply to you” me. these are indeed dark times we live in.
In Soviet Russia, dark times live in you!
You’re welcome.
You’re late.
(Note the 7:41 am comment below.)
Alack, in a certain former Asian republic, dark times live in you.
So uh… Anybody gonna call it?
Uh… first?
No, the phone number.
I’m too scared.
I bet it’s “Sara J’s” number. She’s posted it in the picture to try to get guys to call her.
Unprovoked attack of the day WIN for me!!!
No one ever sees it coming…
I don’t think so; the country code for Thailand is “66-”.
Oh Snap, MSG! you got me there. I’m reeling.
Calm down honey. I’ll log off and call you right now.
Oh, wait a minute. Family Guy is on.
O.K., right after Family Guy, I swear.
And for Internet fear counseling, visit our website at http://www.FAIL.org!
Accidental hyperlink fail.
i guess i’m gonna give it a shot XD
Never heard of phone phobia. Huh.
I would call, but I’m too afraid….
I have orgasmphobia.
Phone Phobia generally stems back to a bad experiance with phone sex.

…you know, in case anyone thinks it was photoshopped.
That link was photoshopped.
Photoshopping a text-only document fail
I’d feel really weird calling. “Well, uh, I have this fear of phones, you see….” “Well, you managed to call, didn’t you? YOU’RE FAKING IT, AREN’T YOU?!!”
I do kinda have a fear of phones, but I have social phobia so I think its kind of a part of that, I just think its someone calling about a late bill or maybe my mom calling to judge me ^_^. I won’t pick up the phone if its a blocked ID, usually.
i have a bit of phone phobia, oddly enough i work in a callcenter…
funny, I work in a call center too ^_^ Must be that frightening DING! in your ear and then a guy screaming at you because his internet don’t work.
Sir, is the modem turned on?
……….No.
heh more or less… I did dsl support for a while. now i support a credit card processing network, so the clientele is a little smarter, in most cases, they have to be capable of running a business in order to get a chance to talk to us- unless of course it’s an employee calling, but even so, they at least are capable of holding a job…
you’d think they could soften that ding a little… it’s almost military- ten HUT!
i just prank called them by screaming n to the mic
Win..
lol reverse phycology they must never get called
:O
