I actually know about the fire pictured there, I am a firefighter from the same county as that. Kinda strange to see that posted on here after being there.
I used to live in this building and was lucky enough to move out a few months after it burned down…though I have no idea how the fire started. It’s nuts to find it on the fail blog!
Even weirder… I took that picture! Someone grabbed it from my Flickr photostream for this dubious purpose. This happened right outside my building across the aforementioned brook.
They are mostly done restoring that building now. I wonder how many future tenants will stumble across this.
Everyone talking how stupid Bush is- he sure outfoxed those moron Democrats in the majority if you listen to freak-face Pelosi for half a second-I’d say those Democrats are way too stupid to keep their jobs if BUSH OUT WITTED THEM
yes, write a sad poem about how they failed at the lightbulb-changing and burnt the whole place down. On a happier note, maybe they died happiest ever??? in excruciating, unbearable (yet satisfying) pain???? maybe?
Hey, I lived in a Failapartment once… not so great, actually. My neighbors were drug addicted nineteen year olds who had a two year old and were constantly having parties with their underage friends where they got completely wasted and blazed right in front of the kid. Classy folks. Plus, I had to call 911 twice when they were beating each other up, also in front of the baby. Good times!
All the innocent comments on the site take on a new meaning:
“We haven’t come across a better-ventilated apartment in this area. The windows are huge, the patio pretty and almost every room is flooded with light.”
“I’ve been living here for over a year now and I’m definitely going to stay.”
And the message from the new landlord:
“buy fire insurance”
“Amenities: very low heating bills…”
Finally a comment where its not a bunch of clammering idiots trying to shout first, Comment win sir….comment win
FIRST!
I wonder why they renamed it Ashbrook. Oh, yeah, they whole “being on fire” thing.

That would be funny, but no, they changed the name because the property was bought by a new management company, I’d say about a year before the fire.
again, just as annoying to comment on the no first. it’s not an amazing worldly feat to not care if you are first. plus sir is a her.
We prize her for her fur.
*purrr…*
(thanks, Durr!)
from the lure of her fur there is no sure cure
but a burr in her fur can be murder on a sir
*is demure*
and pure
BWUAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!
…Sorry. I couldn’t read that with a straight face, let alone rhyme with it.
‘pears that some things sure can sweep you off your feet,
Burnin’ down the house.
(~ David “Burnin’”)
Your allure is secure!
Fer Sure
Are you sure?
You do realize that by bringing up the illusive ‘first!’ you are only adding to the problem.
Elusive fail.
. . .central heating?
I think “central heating” is an understatement…
Second, actually.
Are/Our fail
ha ha sexist win…or fail….
actually it should have been aww. weird.
me fail english, that’s unpossible!
thankfully i really don’t care about my spelling fails so you do not get any cool-on-the-internet-points
It’s a “motivated seller”
The real estate market is on FIRE!!!! Now is the time to buy!!!!!
Now with gradually expanding bay windows! Units are going fast!
What the hell is that a picture of?
Yes my eyesight may be a fail but I’m sure I’m not the only one.
’tis the apartment – but it is ON FIRE!
(well, something on fire at any rate)
We didn’t start the fire.
…it was always failburning…
A burn fail… is it when you end up all wet ?
Actually, I think this is funny.
since the world was…. tu….burning
It was always burning since the world’s been turning,
We didn’t start the fire,
No we didn’t light it but we tried to fight it!
ah yes, i see it now!
My eyesight is just as bad, at 1st it looked like some glowing ghost baby hovering outside the window with the drapes closed.
LOL!!!! AWESOME! GHOST BABIES!!
I believe that is called a fire. Created by God and given to man, it destroys shit that stands in its way.
Just like the Bush administration, except without so much fail.
Everyone talking how stupid Bush is- he sure outfoxed those moron Democrats in the majority if you listen to freak-face Pelosi for half a second-I’d say those Democrats are way too stupid to keep their jobs if BUSH OUT WITTED THEM
Actually, my apartment caught on fire too once, and I snapped a pic of it. I’m going to go upload it to this site too!
way to be original
maybe her grandma was trapped inside waving
and it can be family picture fail
It failed on safety and maintenance as fell for getting halfway decient scores. Bwahaha!
It’s not a fail. It’s a burn.
Funny that, it’s in Ash(e?)brook.
Burn indeed, lol.
But will it be “Burn of the Week”?
I’d say it loses some points on the safety and construction ratings.
In Soviet Russia, YOU lose points on safety and construction ratings!
Godf*ckingKillMeIMadeAnInSovietRussiaJoke*Zap*/*Dies*

Soviet Russiahere we’d all like to initiate a kill on people who post Soviet Russia comment.You live in Soviet Russia?!

Traci W uses Skype!
Privacy fail, the number is quite easily guessable.
Who’s calling first ?
I nominate myself.
919-900-1232. I think. Tried it. It’s legit NC number. hehe.
Pros: Good construction, nice neighbors, near the mall, highly affordable price.
Con: May spontaneously combust.
Lol’d !
I don’t see the fail here. It looks like a nice little place to me.
“Yes, I agree, we love it here”, says the girl dating the human torch.
Any emo kids inside the burning apartment?
Why, do you want to write a poem about the loss of your friends? :’(
yes, write a sad poem about how they failed at the lightbulb-changing and burnt the whole place down. On a happier note, maybe they died happiest ever??? in excruciating, unbearable (yet satisfying) pain???? maybe?
They’re too busy cutting themselves to care.
I wanna buy it.. I’ve always wanted to life in the Arparment of Fail

ah, the good old days in Camden, NJ.
Maybe they are trying to appeal to the Pyro’s of the area by showing how high the flames can go…..
A Room With a View…of Hell.
That’s where we dine tonight.
Tonight we dine in heck!
Tonight you dine alone.
Lol’d.
Tonight I wanna rock you tonight.

Hi, I’m new here.
Tonight I’m Gonna Rock You is a Spinal Tap song. Eddie Izzard is the “room with a view…of Hell”.
New here, but not new to the world. Thanks for playing.

Cute Fluffy Bunnies… FROM HELL!!!111oneoneone

Yes, given the nature of the apartment, the bunnies will be barbecued.
Run, buns! Gary Glitter is coming!
In Soviet maternity ward, bun in the oven tells you when to run.
How about picture enlargement fail? That “bigger” version isn’t any better than the original.

Ebay doesn’t allow the sale of body parts. You’d have to offer it free with purchase of a ball-point pen. So to speak.
Lol I saw something like that on Ebay once. It was called the “two-piece homosexual masturbation kit”, or something like that…
Was that taking it too far?
has anyone said anything about the roof yet. specifically, it’s being on fire?
Well that’s the problem with all those “constantly updated” home search websites… it can flare up on you.
Why, did you want water?
Dude, I totally live in that complex, watched the fire burn last fall…
Better hurry…with a wood-burnig fireplace in every one, units are going fast!
Now we know why it got renamed ASHbrook.
I remember when that apt. complex burned. The news reported that it had been blazing for 20 minutes before anyone called 911. Seriously?
The person who called 911 wears a late crown!
Does it come with Airconditioner?
I live there. Awesome!
Pahster is my son. Not cool! Momster worries about Pahster getting baked!
(Not an intentional fire reference).
(Not an intentional pot reference).
yeah right no one would buy a pic of a toothpick!
fail to enlarge picture

^ dipshit
Is that a fire?
