  1. carper says:

    i’d listen to Shit FM… my taste in music :)

  2. Mr. J says:

    A fitting commentary on the quality of popular music today.

  3. jluve82 says:

    third! (Just had to do it once. Kinda anti climactic.)

  4. S.U. says:

    Canadian Fail. :o )

  5. jluve82 says:

    It’s that every local radio station, ever?

  6. MrDobilina says:

    heh could see that one coming

  7. Ellindil says:

    They probably play (C)rap music.

  8. Avis says:

    Finally! Truth in advertizing!

  9. carper says:

    even with the door shut the slogan says “Newfoundland’ sHit Music Station”… kerning fail?

    • fuzz on the concept says:

      carper, what are you doing here talking about text code?
      your first statement claimed end-of-line

  10. cabbage says:

    As Nelly Furtado said, there’s shit on the radio.

  11. Animolly says:

    wow i cant believe they didnt notice that

  12. Killerwit says:

    It happens.

  13. Ross says:

    I’m from Newfoundland, and know this station.

    Very Shit

  14. natster says:

    clearly photoshopped. Even Newfies aren’t THAT daft! Why is the S ‘higher’ than the other letters…. Photoshop FAIL. Nelly Furtado = shit too!

    • Ross says:

      The S is on the side door, and when opened, closer to the observer, thus looking a little higher due to perception. Therefore

      PERCEPTION FAIL

    • anony-mouse says:

      Dumbass. The S is on the door. The door is open. When the door is closed the S moves to its correct place at the end of HIT, thereby spelling HITS. The funny bit is that when the door is open, the word SHIT is spelled, correctly describing the music played on this and virtually every other FM radio station on this continent.
      Intelligent being fail.

    • Bwahahaha says:

      You’re still a moron… you FAIL

    • Newfoundlander says:

      It’s very real. I actually managed to get to see the van myself, before they had work done on it so this wouldn’t happen.

      Furthermore, I find it very offensive that you stereotype Newfoundlanders in such a way. I am a Newfoundlander myself, a university student, a musician, a chess player and many other things. One thing I am not, however is stupid. I therefore request that you retract your hasty, politically incorrect and falsified remarks regarding “newfies”.

      Also, for the record, while some Newfoundlanders are okay with the term “Newfie”, there are also many who are deeply offended by this term. If you are going to make comments about someone, use decent terms.

      In other words, FAIL!

  15. unklegwar says:

    “All Miley Cyrus…All The Time”

  16. mojojo says:

    my feelings about radio anyways…

  17. Bob Sacamano says:

    One look at their main website (listed on the van) (http://www.991hitsfm.com/) yields a whole plethora of pictures of the artists whose ( )hit( ) they play. Insert ’s’ as needed in ( ).

  18. Didn’t “Rage against the machine” have a song about a “Gorilla radio” and how one should “Turn that shit off”. Man, these guys were prophetic! And pathetic. But their drummer ruled so whatever.

  19. Chase says:

    First!

  20. Maj says:

    HITS…Slinding door, and it magically becomes…SHIT

    Pure genius!

  21. Dapper Swindler says:

    FINALLY!!!

    An corporate radio station that is honest and self-actualized.

  22. mecagoenvuestraputamadre says:

    me parto y me mondo

  23. Lolcattus says:

    Video killed the radio star, and now I’m kinda glad.

    • fuzz on the concept says:

      In my mind and in their car, they can’t rewind the door’s too far.

      • Malfeasant says:

        and now we meet in a vacant success center….

      • MyMalady says:

        get outta my dreams.. da dada dada da da da… and in to my car.. dadada da da da.. get outta my, get outta my..
        wait all of a sudden i feel that i need to be wearing flourescent coloured spandex.. be right back..

  24. MyMalady says:

    this is one of my favorite fails in a while!! this effing rocks! or doesn’t rock.. but that’s okay because they are warning you with the name.. hahaha

  25. djspazy says:

    Ok if you look at the sign behind the car, it says HitS FM
    On the car the S somehow made it infront of the Hit to make SHit FM
    Wtf?? Sign making fail?

  26. shoobeydoobey says:

    haha…. love this fail. :P

  27. MattB says:

    That’s a WIN on free advertising. I admit it… I went to the website.

  28. eddiepscetti says:

    What’s with all the crap in the van? The fail is obvious, but I’m wondering if there isn’t a secondary fail here that is going unnoticed?

  29. Emankcin says:

    Radio fail, or radio win? By the looks of things, when that door is closed, it says “HITS”. Once you slide that door open, the ‘S’ at the end goes to the beginning, and the ‘HIT’ at the end shows through the window. So, if you ask me, I’d say it was genius design! I say win!

    • K says:

      Well I bet you were valedictorian of your class, weren’tcha little fella?

      • Emankcin says:

        Was that supposed to be a burn? Oh! Sarcasm… Ah! In other words, you wanted to say: “Way to point out the painfully obvious!” Yeah, I picked up on that too. I was just saying that I didn’t think this was a fail, but a win. I think the placement of the letters was intentional. But, good try, nonetheless.

  30. K says:

    So, tell me five things about yourself.

    • fuzz on the concept says:

      I have five things to say,
      five fingers to give
      into your grace.

      First, when I was apart from you,

      * this world did not exist,

      * nor any other.

      Second, whatever I was looking for

      * was always you.

      Third, why did I ever learn to count to three?

      Fourth, my cornfield is burning!

      Fifth, this finger stands for Rabia,

      * and this is for someone else.

      * Is there a difference?

      Are these words or tears?
      Is weeping speech?
      What shall I do, my love?”

      ~ Rumi

  31. chez says:

    wow. i’m not sure if i come to this blog for the fails or the flame wars anymore.

    • Avis says:

      The flame wars. The fails are nowhere near as much fun as the wars.

      • Killerwit says:

        Truth WIN

        • fuzz on the concept says:

          Even though large tracts of Europe and many old and famous States have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Gestapo and all the odious apparatus of Nazi rule, we shall not flag or fail.

          We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France,
          we shall fight on the seas and oceans,
          we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be,
          we shall fight on the beaches,
          we shall fight on the landing grounds,
          we shall fight in the fields and in the streets,
          we shall fight in the hills;
          we shall never surrender.

          • Nonymous says:

            There goes the siren that warns of the air raid
            There comes the sound of the guns sending flack!
            Out of the scramble we’ve got to get airborne
            Got to get up for the coming attack!

            ……

            Few people will get this…

  32. TheMisanthrope says:

    I also like the minor but separated secondary sHits made from the ’s’ in ‘Newfoundland’s” and the Hits.

    Its so true they had to write it twice.

  33. C CC says:

    true o so true

  34. Adoni says:

    When that radio station sees this the hits gonna shit the fan!

  35. Animolly says:

    my banana wont open

  36. FusedFudge says:

    Woah. I’ve seen that van IRL. This pic was taken at Centennial Field at the Grand Falls Salmon festival 2008. Same place I live.

    • Rob In Fort McMurray says:

      Actually is was taken at the Shaggy concert in Paradise. I know because 2 friends of mine were th e concert presenters and I volunteered there. The truck camper you see behind the van is my buddy’s. Sorry for you being wrong.

  37. Tarivus says:

    FIRST!

  38. shynes says:

    This is a pretty sweet on. Keep it up NewFoundland

  39. AKP says:

    Must be the new independent local radio station from Pratts Bottom (a real place in the UK!)

  40. Styx River says:

    At least they acknowledge it…

  41. j says:

    That station is broadcasted about an hour from my house.

  42. kramerr says:

    Those newfys can’t stop being funny.

  43. David says:

    That is a cool van

  44. Robbie says:

    Hits FM is from Newfoundland, I live there! :)
