You can google for images of Manjushri. He typically represents “wisdom” and Avalokitesvara represents “compassion” — the twin paramount virtues in Mahayana Buddhism. Manjushri carries a sword to assist us in cutting through delusion and removing distractions.

Manjushri is “Monju” in Japanese (文殊 ).
Avalokitesvara is “Kannon” (觀音 — he got a “sex change” in China on her way to Japan.)
…And now, the news.
Two girls were arrested after defecating and urinating with a cup in public. The cup was manufactured by ACME, a company intenent on global domination, and the quickly recalled all cups.
We go back to Chuck Storm, who is live. Chuck, what do you have for us?
I knew that was going to come back and bite me but I could not think of any other description for the image I was trying to purvey .
.
I see that what kind of image YOU interpreted it as. Glad I
could be of assistance.
Don’t think he had time to look, he was probably looking through the viewfinder and couldn’t see the pole out of the corner of his eye. Camera guy win for not failing as hard as Chuck.
And is that his real name? Chuck Storm sounds like it was made up to sound like a hard-hitting reporters name. That and his demeanor go together, but when the two of those get together with that pole…
…well all of that intentional image cultivation just went down the drain. Maybe he can get back his weather-guy with the pointy stick job.
Here in SoCal we have Dallas Rains as the weatherman. Not sure if that’s how you spell it, but that’s how it’s pronounced. Oh, and also Johnny Mountain.
As funny as it is, I was having a hard time believing that it was real. I guess that confirms it isn’t. It’s still funny, but it’s not a fail since it was acted.
On a related note, I have not been able to find anything that shows that “dboots,” the rainbow conspiracy lady, is a fraud. Everything I find just confirms she’s being serious.
and the reporter says: just the drink please, can’t handle any beatches today. I have a lump on my head instead of my pants (wait, is that a lump in my pants?) On no.
It’s a FAKE fail. Ryan Northcott si the name of the actor, and this is one of many sketches found on FuddyTV (look it up). Yes it’s funny…but it’s not an actual fail.
Kind of surprised I had to scroll this far down to see this. It thought it was pretty obviously faked, due to the fact that his face disappears behind the pole and there doesn’t appear to be anything there to realistically make the BWOONNGGGG noise.
I got sympathy for him. I was in Greektown in Detroit long while back and I walked into an uncapped parking meter. A parking meter. Uncapped. So the top of the pole was like foot and a half lower than most parking meters. Yeah. It was painful.
Faker names have been real. For example, weatherman/anchorman Storm Fields, whose father is also a famous weatherman, and yeah, that’s the name he gave him.
And isn’t there an Action News in every middling-sized market?
Man, and here I was thinking Failblog finally came up with a good funny fail after a long hiatus of funny fails. And it turns out to be staged!!! I want my LOL’s back!!!
And what is it with the recent rash of non-fail fail submissions? Go look at the voting page today. At least half of them are not even real fails. The new Rite-Aid, the “A” school, the switched lettuce. None of those are even fails. What is this world coming to?
My ex has a Toyota Highlander for which she got a license plate holder: “there can be only one”.

BotW Nomination.
.
(whatever happened to the Burn of the Week fail anyway? It had some of the best comment threads.)
Awwww, thank you!!
BotW has been absent for two weeks now!! It’s sad really. I enjoyed it. We had a nice slow roast going yesterday at some point, though.

Why not just put up some 3 Stooges clips for “classic fail”? Because its lame to use fake ass shit. Otherwise, Failblog could just run AIRPLANE for free and that shit’s funnier than most fake crap.
dude, look out for that POLE!
Where’s my hat?
Someone stole it last night. That’s what the reporter’s talking about!
Must be a slooooow news day.
“Pole on cranium violence: The Full Story.” They were trying to stay “a head” of the game.
Is being punny your only skill, talonsofpeace?
He’s taken annoying to an artform, that’s for sure.
I must hurt you…badly!!!
Please don’t hurt talons badly. If you are going to hurt him, do it well.
Careful now, he might enjoy it.
Like, to the effect of the handcuffs thing on graphjam?
Lack of wit win.
So yes.
Wit fail
Warrior needs food…badly!!!
Don’t lose your “head!”
…
hahahaha. very cute, but im not much for puns.
Badum-fail.
Did he die?
How’d you know his hat was stolen?\:|
all i can see is an asshat
I bet he’s got all sorts of submarines with screen doors.
In Soviet Poland, Poles look out for YOU!!
Best reversal joke I’ve heard in a while!
lol clever.
Full of WIN.
Epic!
Past time, dude, but win as hell anyway :>
Poland was never in the Soviet Union, therefore historical knowledge fail.
oh God! “Bongggggggggg”
God?
*masturbates*
You might want to consider a different username, bodhisattva of infinite compassionate wisdom –
because you’re definitely doing it wrong.
Jesus watches you masturbate. Remember that.
Be that as it may, He does kill a kitteh every time someone jacks off, thereby improving the average grammatical aptitude of the world.
Amen to that.
Oh, sorry lolcattus, that was insensitive. Here, have a cheezburger.
KITTEH?!?
*masturbates*
Sounds kind of perverted to watch people masturbate. Is Jesus perverted?
No, just that he watches over all good christians.
And what is that avatar?
So… Masturbating doesn’t mean you’re not a good christian, then. Masturbate away, people! Jesus is watching, but he doesn’t really mind!
Jesus is masturbating while you’re masturbating.
You’re unfunny while you’re chuckles.
A clever ploy to confuse you.
Lol, it is kind of funny. Since its different between Mac and PC I’m assuming that the error is actually his avatar.
Because usually the error loading for me is a question mark/puzzle piece thing. :]
Niiiice.
Not perverted, just Irish. He had 12 drinking buddies; lived at home ’til he was 30 and His mother thought He was God.
Yeah, you’ve got a point there. O_o
I didn’t know Jesus was into that…Maybe I should give Christianity another shot
So does Ceiling Kitty
Yes, and I know that infinite compassionate wisdom is all about feeling good about yourself.
super drôle ! je suis chié dessus ! Et là, merde, ça pue !
Pourquoi êtes-vous parler en français?
Perhaps you’re onto something there, Avalo’.
Just keep a wisdom eye open for Manjushri’s sword.
Sword? Is that some innuendo or am I thinking too much (or too little)?

CAUSE EVERYONE KNOWS ABOUT THAT HUUUURRR
Well, now you do.
Absolutely!
..don’t make me take my wakizashi to you.
Don’t make me get my Katanas!
Just an aside here, I keep a smal statue of Genesha (sp?) in my bathroom. Only a very few people get the joke.
Small even.
The part about chakra representation, or the obstacle-removing thing? *giggles*
Obstacle-removing. One person walked in and promptly cracked up laughing.
Watch out for ceiling cat. -_-
Druggie.
Yeah.
Classic. Beautiful. Cinematic magic! I had to watch it 3 times. I laughed, I cried… This is the first fail to make me LOL in a week.
That fail is the stuff of win. Indeed, I had a good LOL.
me too.
Chuck, Chuck, Chuck-Chuck
The FAILHole…
Watch out for that POLE… (bah-dum-dum)
Watch out for that….
….POLE!!!
(with apologies to ‘George of The Jungle’)
Oh, and BTW….
“First!!”
–Flutter
That must mean I’m second. Yippee!
Third? :]
:[[
We’re VERY serious.
*poke*
Aha!
:[
I was wondering how long it would be until George of the Jungle was brought into this.
I’m glad to see I don’t have to do it.
You sure his name wasn’t George?
/Watch out for that tree!
thats why its called a “stop sign”
this is from a commercial. its not a real news broadcast. can’t remember what its for
too late…
Second!
first!
wait…
Zeroth!
I’m below “Zeroth!”

Yes?
meep meep!
*Lays bird seed*
I hope you remembered that Acme is having a sale on bird seed.
Really?
*Dashes off to Acmemart*
Ooh! Buy one get one free for dynamite!
I want one of those strap-on rocket backpacks. Half-Off!
How ’bout a commemorative ACME cup?
Yeah two girls just got one this morn.
…And now, the news.
Two girls were arrested after defecating and urinating with a cup in public. The cup was manufactured by ACME, a company intenent on global domination, and the quickly recalled all cups.
We go back to Chuck Storm, who is live. Chuck, what do you have for us?
::Drops portable black hole (purchased from an Acme store in Geneva) on top of BFF::
Aaaaaaaaaaah…….
*Disappears*
I dropped some spot remover on my dog.
Now he’s gone.
Can we go back to the part where raelalt buys a strap-on…? ‘Cuz I’m STILL laughing at that one.
I knew that was going to come back and bite me but I could not think of any other description for the image I was trying to purvey .
.
I see that what kind of image YOU interpreted it as. Glad I
could be of assistance.
Uh-no.
Pllbbbt. Spoilsport. :p
Why don’t you just say you want to be packing a jet.
well guys i have a lamp-post shaped hole in my face,
back to you in the studio.
I seem to have fallen into an endless void, so that’s the end of the news. Have a good evening (in my timezone anyway)
*Shuffles papers business-like*
Strap-on rocket?! *masturbates*
So.. pretty sure the camera operator and boom man saw the pole coming and decided the reporter fucker deserved to get his face smashed?
Camera guy win!
Don’t think he had time to look, he was probably looking through the viewfinder and couldn’t see the pole out of the corner of his eye. Camera guy win for not failing as hard as Chuck.
hilarious
That was the funniest thing I’ve seen all day.
That’s what she said.
Excellent use of a classic, bravo.
*Golf Clap*
you’ve not looked in the mirror yet then?
booo…
…bies.
Oh god….
…why are we getting the news from knuckleheads like these? I mean, look at FOX! Jeez, even Goebbels wouldn’t be so propagandistic.
Shut up, you little insect.
it’s good to know chuck storm is on the beat, learning difficult lessons so i don’t have to.
His whole program makes for some hard-hitting news.
He definitely sets the bar…
That’s what ‘polls’ indicate
As long as he doesn’t crash and burn
I’ve heard he has leveled off.
After hitting bottom.
Ran into some trouble for a while
And had to stop short.
I hear he’s on the straight and narrow now.
I dunno. Some of his stories are hit-and-miss.
He’s a little arrogant. . possibly too head strong?
He should lay low for a while. Not walk against the crowd.
Better than pissing up a rope.
That…was the most…beautiful string of comments I have ever read.
Cooperation in puns WIN
Now he’s a man of great mettle.
He doing much better for himself now that he got a new job hosting Wipeout.
But no longer considered upstanding.
His stories make a real impact, though.
*whacks off*
Some of his stories make you want to bang your head, tho.
Yet appears even he doesn’t know where his career will take him.
I’ll say it right here and now: He’s going DOWN!
Well…geez. I’m pretty sure they won’t be allowed to show THAT on youtube.
Cameraman Fail. He should have kept filming, and point and laugh.
No, it’s a Cameraman Win. He kept right on walking sideways after Chuck failed. It’s painful, human fails like that that make me smile.
So that’s what happened to George after getting out of the tree-swinging business.
lol … watch out for that referennnnnnnnncccce…!
Watch out for that… lol
Nice.
Classic.
What kind of douchebag has a name like “Chuck Storm” anyway?
Hi, this is Chuck Storm, I’m really cool and *!BLAM!!!* lol
why did that make me lol?
dammit david, it didn’t make me lol till you did
And is that his real name? Chuck Storm sounds like it was made up to sound like a hard-hitting reporters name. That and his demeanor go together, but when the two of those get together with that pole…
…well all of that intentional image cultivation just went down the drain. Maybe he can get back his weather-guy with the pointy stick job.
chuck storm sounds like a hard-hitting reporter in a comic book. no way is that his real name, which makes the fail amazing.
like Stone Phillips… another goofball with a misleading moniker
That’s exactly who I thought of. Get Out of My Head!!!!!
No. It’s very comfy in here.
*nestles*
Prolly cuz of all the room.
I bet it’s the deep thoughts.
i’m sorry!!! *commits seppuku*
Wears a trenchcoat, carries a .38 Special, runs into poles…
Here in SoCal we have Dallas Rains as the weatherman. Not sure if that’s how you spell it, but that’s how it’s pronounced. Oh, and also Johnny Mountain.
We (SF Bay Area) have a Dusti Rhodes and a Lisa Carr that do radio traffic reporting.
The Story Behind Chuck Storm:
http://fuddytv.com/video/blog/2007/07/16/the-story-behind-chuck-storm
As funny as it is, I was having a hard time believing that it was real. I guess that confirms it isn’t. It’s still funny, but it’s not a fail since it was acted.
On a related note, I have not been able to find anything that shows that “dboots,” the rainbow conspiracy lady, is a fraud. Everything I find just confirms she’s being serious.
Anyone care to join me in a communal “weep for humanity” moment?
Yes, someone else said “SoCal”. *cries*
*cries*
… sorry, not really, i was just faking
You were faking it? *cries*
Oh don’t cry — I always find a way to make it up.
*grooooooooooooooooaan*
…sorry, not really. I was just faking it.
:p
*cries*
Chuck Storm! The name is hot. The dude is hot. And he knows how to work a hard pole.
OMG*masturbates*WOOF!
Pole-dancing–ur doing it wrong.
I don’t think there is a wrong way to do a… umm…
On second thought, pole dancing is not that interesting.
Pole V Chuck Storm
Pole FTW!
Pole Free the Whales?
pole f*ck them wabbits
No thank you. The pole’s all yours.
So a reporter walks in to a bar…
and says to the bartender: I want to ask you about a drink! And can I have one?
I want to order a Harvey Wallbanger
the bartender replies…
Im fresh out of HW mix, but how about Sex on the Beach
And the reporter replies: Can you give me a Screaming Orgasm to go with that?
And the bartender says “Do you want Tequila Rose or Bloody Mary?”
and the reporter says: just the drink please, can’t handle any beatches today. I have a lump on my head instead of my pants (wait, is that a lump in my pants?) On no.
A grasshopper walks into a bar and orders a beer. Looking at him, the bartender says “You know, we have a drink named after you.”
The grasshopper asks:
“Chuck?”
If that’s not the right response it should be.
The grasshopper asks “You have a drink named Steve?”
Close though. Consolation prizes are in order.
Oooooo!!! A prize!!! What do I get???
*gives fluffy a noogie*
In Soviet Russia, white russian orders YOU!
No, white russian orders Georgians.
And also try their hardest to be complete assholes
…No, but if you hum a few bars….
… a vertical bar …
…space bar…
My god — Chuck saw stars.
I hit a pole…I can feel it. I can feel it. My mind is going…
LOL …
+2001
That had to Hurt… Bar None
look out for that…nevermind…
I love this video… his exclamation is funny.
Owned.
Pwned
The fact that his on-air name is “Chuck Storm” is laughable. All kinds of images there.
“Look up, Chuck Storm!” “Look! Upchuck Storm!”
A woodchuck storm would chuck Chuck Storm on his ass.
Not to mention the anchors accidentally calling him Stork Chum.
It’s a FAKE fail. Ryan Northcott si the name of the actor, and this is one of many sketches found on FuddyTV (look it up). Yes it’s funny…but it’s not an actual fail.
way to rain on everyone’s lolparty.
Say it ain’t so ! ! ! I actually thought Failblog had come up with a funny.
Now I feel like I’ve been the victim of a robbery …. um … ::facepole::
I feel so…, so used.
Now you know how an HIV-covered needle feels.
And you were doing so well.
I’m sorry. That was my “Dumb Comment of the Week” entry.
’s ok. Everyone is allowed at least one.
But do remember…we’re keeping score.
So the one with the dumbest comments wins?
Damn, I’ll never catch up to Mister Sausage…
We are? Oh shit!
Kind of surprised I had to scroll this far down to see this. It thought it was pretty obviously faked, due to the fact that his face disappears behind the pole and there doesn’t appear to be anything there to realistically make the BWOONNGGGG noise.
But it did make me smile =D
well, i’m wasting my life at work, so i couldn’t watch it with sound.
NO!!
This is why I hate the truth…
Lies are better
tell me lies. tell me, tell me lies.
lol
No innuendo intended I suppose??
OMFG That was AWESOME. Best Fail I’ve seen in a long time.
If that was Chuck Norris, insteas of Chuck Storm, the pole would have moved out of the way…
This is the Channel 5 news… With..
The Channel 5 News team:
Anchorwoman, Deanna Danger…
Commentary by Larry Livacious…
Sports with Jack Jockey…
And weather with Chuck Storm…!
…”Ohh, God”…
He does the religious news.
haha! *gives raelalt the clap*
*the golf clap, that is
*note to self — use the golf gloves with fluffy*
If that was Chuck Norris, the pole would move out of his way…
If you were Chuck Norris, your second post would’ve deleted itself.
Fake, but still funny.
(psst, BondFan — what do you make of this commenter’s username? there’s something sushi about it)
(There is, fuzz. You think he’s really a prawn who learned to type?)
Silly rabbit, the Internet is for prawn!
You trixy user!
win
I got sympathy for him. I was in Greektown in Detroit long while back and I walked into an uncapped parking meter. A parking meter. Uncapped. So the top of the pole was like foot and a half lower than most parking meters. Yeah. It was painful.
Doing the vertical bop — DO NOT WANT.
f-f-f-f-f-FAKE GHOST!
t-t-t-t-t-t-TOTALLY UNRELATED!
Uhm ofcourse, I also always walk against poles, why not?

Oh fuk that was hilarious
It’s a FuddyTV bit.

I like when Canadians say “Aboat”
Sounds tinny.
What an uncanny statement.
Way to string that together.
Put a lid on it already.
Now that’s a stretch, so can it.
I like the way it sounds when you make a pretend phone with two Canadians strung together.
Eh?
Ek?
hello world
This is me
Life should be
Mm mm yeah
Fun for everyone
unexpected….nice fail
how could you not notice it’s fake? for god’s sake, his name is chuck storm and it’s “Action News 5″…
How could you not noticed that this has already been noticed and commented?
Faker names have been real. For example, weatherman/anchorman Storm Fields, whose father is also a famous weatherman, and yeah, that’s the name he gave him.
And isn’t there an Action News in every middling-sized market?
Have you heard of the kid named Batman? That was just cruel.
First!
…I need a sound file of his “Ooooh God!” from the end so I can make it my error noise. I can’t help but giggle every time I hear it.
Man, and here I was thinking Failblog finally came up with a good funny fail after a long hiatus of funny fails. And it turns out to be staged!!! I want my LOL’s back!!!
And what is it with the recent rash of non-fail fail submissions? Go look at the voting page today. At least half of them are not even real fails. The new Rite-Aid, the “A” school, the switched lettuce. None of those are even fails. What is this world coming to?
/rant
Then we must request that you send us some fails. Might I suggest your family portrait?
That, old chap, is a subtle win.
*Golf clap and shakes hands*
Nice meeting you.
*shakes Bondfans hand*
I just couldn’t let it pass.
And not a chap.
You’re very welcome. People with your wit are in dire need.
If that’s the case, things must be dire indeed.
They really are. Fuzz, Dragonwriter and Loz are not satisfied with my humour, so you must be the one.
Surely there can be more than one?
There could, but that person has not shown his hidden talent yet.
What about Abstract? I thought that was going nicely.
Abstract is a rising star. He is a possible contender for this position.
*sigh*
C’mere, you.
*gives Bondfan a noogie*
Feel better?
No. Didn’t you watch Highlander?
My ex has a Toyota Highlander for which she got a license plate holder: “there can be only one”.
.
Depression on how many did not get the joke and gave her grief because they thought it was some christian fundie statement
Tell the people who were nice but didn’t understand to watch the original.
Tell those who were mean to watch the sequel.
Yeah, even when they re-edited the first sequel, it still didn’t make much sense.
.
Though my ex was more enamored with the Adrian Paul highlander.
I don’t even remember much about the second Highlander. I only watched it once, after all.
I actually have made a submission, but failblog has so far failed to put it up for a vote (submitted over 2 weeks ago).
So, did Failblog fail? Or did you fail to deliver?
Avs:”Might I suggest your family portrait?”

BotW Nomination.
.
(whatever happened to the Burn of the Week fail anyway? It had some of the best comment threads.)
Awwww, thank you!!
BotW has been absent for two weeks now!! It’s sad really. I enjoyed it. We had a nice slow roast going yesterday at some point, though.
People need to actually nominate BsOTW through the email address provided. I guess not many folks have been actually doing that.
I thought that, in the absence of nominations, the mod just picked what they liked.
Apparently not.
*runs to nominate Avis*
Why thank you! But really, if I hadn’t taken the shot, I would’ve been remiss.
“People need to actually nominate BsOTW through the email address provided”
.
I have been doing that for the past 3 or 4 weeks.
Huh. Well, then I have no idea why we’ve been BOTW-less.
*whimper* Bleeds out of stomach
poor guy!
it;s fake. i paused the vid and the dude closed his eye on purpose before hitting the pole, funny though.
You’re right. This guy is in several similar blooper videos on Youtube.
FAILBLOG FAIL!
FuddyTV.
I did NOT see that coming… and apparently neither did her.
IT IZ P H O T O S H O P E D !!
S T F U !!
Been there, done that.
It hurts
….All my thoughts are in Dutch….
.
*sees fuzzy little windmills*
I would advise you not to get sucked in by the Dutch fuzzies…
Must be the Grolsch.
Or the Oranjeboom.
Yeah, oranjeboom is pretty disgusting
I don’t know, I kind of like it. I’m drinking one now.
George of the Jungle. Now a TV reporter.
His face is full of fail
haha…i’ve seen this vid so many times, but it never gets old!

FAKE!

Oh, that’s going to leave a mark.
Failblog fail to notice fake fail.
Why not just put up some 3 Stooges clips for “classic fail”? Because its lame to use fake ass shit. Otherwise, Failblog could just run AIRPLANE for free and that shit’s funnier than most fake crap.
POLE WINS……FATALITY!!!
Chuck Storm reporting from CERN on the LHC told us today that negative polarity affects everyone…
Hahahahaahahahahahahaha
“Oh.. Gawwwwd”
Funniest thing i’ve seen in a while.
This guy should’ve stuck to Meteorology.
…”last night where there was a robbery at about 3:30 in the morning now police are looking for…” POLE “Oh God”
Chuck Storm is my new fake name. I’m totally going to use that tonight to pick up the babes.
I’m going with Big McLargeHuge…
or maybe Bob Johnson.
oh gawd!
What an idiot
xDDDDDDDD ahahahahahahah! epic fail xDDD
It’s a commercial for insurance, I’ve seen it on TV. They cropped the bottom of the screen where it says ‘dramatization’.
Fake. It’s a commercial.
Here is the Canadian version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7gWpNMfCyg
FAKE…it’s part of a commerical.
I saw that coming in a lot of news reports.
This is from a insurance commercial!!! It’s slogan was “Life comes at you fast. Are you prepared?
Damn Chuck Lmao i had to come back and see this again…
That clip is actually from a commercial. It is not real.
fail at uploader, its an ad for somthing i seen it like 5 mins ago
