  1. Simmo33 says:

    FIRST!

  2. wack says:

    SECOND!!!
    IM SO HAPPY

  3. ireentje-muse says:

    Wow… That is one extreme sale!

    • fuzz on the concept says:

      Yeah … and if you divide the % OFF by itself, you get extreme INFINITY!
      ( … or extreme “undefined” … or, like you said, extreme “one” )

      • danielle says:

        I get the “undefined” (anything divided by zero is undefined).

        Even though it doesn’t actually work with zero, I get the “one” (something divided by itself is one).

        But I DON’T get the infinity because zero divided by anything (other than zero) is zero, not infinity.

        • danielle says:

          I mean, I DON’T get the “INFINITY” because zero divided by anything (other than zero) is ZERO, not infinity.

        • TMI Service says:

          The smaller the denominator, or divisor, the greater the quotient, or result. As the denominator approaches zero, the resulting number approaches infinity. So, yes, dividing by zero “isn’t allowed,” i.e, it’s undefined. But if you snuck off and did it anyway, you’d get an infinity.

  4. Pooky says:

    Hmmm.. That doesn’t look shopped at all…

  5. MD43 says:

    THIRD > second > first

  6. WilliamCA says:

    THIRD!!! I’ll take what i can get!

    WilliamCA

  7. Bo says:

    so…..

    I don’t think it’s a fail. It appears the guy on top of the wall hasn’t finished yet. Or perhaps the first number fell down, it’s lying there, you know.

    It would have been funny if there was nobody around.

  8. Psychopoak says:

    photoshop can help you to make this become a real fail…
    I agree with Bo, it’s not a fail.

  9. Joshy says:

    The Fail-shop sets sale again.

  10. BondFan4518 says:

    10th! Woohoo! I got 10th place! Hurray! Hurr-waitaminute…

  11. Thrawn says:

    Is this where they have that sweet deal on the guitar?

  12. sifRAWR says:

    Thats a crowd puller that one.

  13. SeenIt says:

    15th!!!

  14. Ineverfial says:

    I don’t think this is
    1. a FAIL
    2. a WIN
    3. funny

  15. Skip says:

    Not a sale fail, but definitely a fail at the moment the picture was taken. I’m assuming the point for the one sign was to adjust the percentage as needed – 30%, 40%, 100%…

  16. Oruga says:

    I´m not first, but my avatar is cooler than yours.

  17. shoobeydoobey says:

    It’s a banner fail. I think that the bundle of white and red synthetic material on the pavement in front of the sign is actually the first digit of the number, which fell in the process of being posted/glued/whatever. Who’s with me?

  18. phil says:

    I think it’s a sign guy fail because you can tell he’s disappointed in himself and the number. It has to make him feel worse that people are taking pictures of him.

    • Kaalaamaazoo says:

      Yeah he is like hanging over the edge ready to jump over.

    • Loz says:

      I agree. You can tell he’s thinking “why do I even bother, I should’ve stuck with plumbing. I may as well end it all now.”

      • Avis says:

        In wich case he is perfectly positioned to do so. All he needs to do is do a swan dive. Of course, the roof isn’t THAT far up, so there’s no garauntee that it’ll work.

        • Loz says:

          Yeah, let’s face it, there’s nothing worse than a failed suicide attempt.

          • TMI Service says:

            Suicide is against the law in a number of U.S. states.
            .
            (I know a physician who once told a failed suicide patient he was treating in the emergency room, “You know, suicide is illegal in this state.” It was in fact the truth, but the doctor was saying it to try to make a joke.
            The patient, though, replied earnestly, “I wouldn’t've done it if I’d known that.” )
            :[

            • Loz says:

              Lol! That is hilarious. I find it amusing, too, that some countries (or states) make it illegal. As if that’s going to be any sort of deterrant.
              After-life possibilities: heaven, hell or prison.

      • fuzz on the concept says:

        or maybe he’s trying to be a hero, in forming another “O” to go with the one on the sign — a zero hero
        ____

        Dear K obviously,
        Fuzz just made a reference to fuzz making a reference.
        Your pal,
        TMI

  19. John Jude Farragut says:

    What would be even funnier about the sign is if it actually boosted sales for that store!

  20. someone says:

    In Soviet Russia, 0% IS a discount!

  21. Hail says:

    Well, obviously it was just installed when that photo was taken. The other number lies on the ground and the first digit can be changed to whatever the shop wants it to be.
    Thats as dumb as if you photograph a half built building and call it “building fail”.

    Failblog fail, once again.

  22. Seward says:

    “Boss, you know what you told me about falling prices? Well, y’know that modular banner you got? Seems our discounts want to join the prices. Yes, I know. Butterfingers is fired.”

  23. fuzz on the concept says:

    “What’s in a name? That which we call a Lolz
    By any other name would smell the same as a Hugustus ass.”

  24. Ahrnold says:

    eat cake

  25. newphase says:

    B0ll0cks. That is a photoshop job. I see no point in posting *fails* that are photosopped… I could PS anything to make it amusing.

    This picture IN ITSELF is an EPIC FAIL!

  26. The Pirate King says:

    Funny, but i’m sure i’ve seen this somewhere before..

  27. wii says:

    EPIC photoshop fail. If your monitor is properly calibrated you can clearly see whoever did this used the clone tool to hide the first number, possibly a 5. The creases on the lower part of the fabric don’t look natural at all.
    This one could go to Photoshop Disasters.

  28. coyote says:

    They went to all of the trouble to print up the main part of the banner and had not decided yet how much they were going to take off, other than some unit of ten? That’s business fail.

    • mci says:

      *** They went to all of the trouble to print up the main part of the banner and had not decided yet how much they were going to take off, other than some unit of ten? That’s business fail. ***

      Uh, no they printed up a REUSABLE banner that they’ll use for multiple sales with multiple discount percentages.

      You’re a real business genius, you are.

  29. NO WAI says:

    Sign hanging Fail

  30. BondFan4518 says:

    To be sure, to be sure. Irish swearing is top o’ the mornin’!

  31. mek says:

    You idiots look at the rest of the banner on the ground. It’s not a photoshop, just unfinished!

  32. smegmuncher says:

    photoshop fail…

  33. blah says:

    all of you are dumb cause someone obviously photoshoped it

  34. Dan says:

    oh this is so shopped that its not even funny

  35. Juniper says:

    it is weird how these comments are never about the picture

    • no u says:

      it is weird how u posted a comment about the comments
      without bothering to read the comments about the picture

  36. Tamar says:

    What is this?! You can’t go on to the next page, there is just an seemingly endless line of mindless babble…..

  37. Nick-I-Think says:

    It cost $18,500, but with this discount, your new total is… $18,500.

  38. Valdis says:

    At least its not getting more expensive!
