» 135 Failures in Communication

  1. Fat Zero says:

    looks like my 5th birthday

  2. QuintusGrobler says:

    *bates*

  3. grthink says:

    Is it wrong that this really makes me want to start smoking again?

  4. Insanus says:

    lol btw it’s impossible to grab them right?

  5. Baca says:

    if it has one of those big hook things that comes down these shiny little packages are going to be a bitch to pick up….hey maybe that’s the point!

  6. Mr. Dino says:

    modern baby ROCKS!!

  7. Slim Shammy says:

    Smokemon FTW

  8. Khaaaaaaan says:

    *masturbates with first hand*

    *loses minutes off life with second hand*

  9. Nelso says:

    HEY i know where that is.

    • MerDub says:

      I know, that machine has like, 100 shekels that belong to me, as soon as i saw the picture i was like, thats the stupid machine in tel aviv on allenby that i spent all my money on, then couldnt afford to cab and had to walk, without any smokes!

  10. trevermore says:

    This is a win for sure

  11. jluve82 says:

    I know the smoking industry wants to start them young, but damn…

  12. adamthegreat says:

    Dude that is such a dumb development. From candy and plush dolls to ciggarettes. Wonder who funded that…

  13. TehShay says:

    hook em when they’re young, like the catholic church!

    “jesus, if only we had their numbers…”

  14. momo says:

    that anti-smoking group should use this pic…

  15. nytshad says:

    my failblog is looking at me funny. is it mad a me?

  16. Porka says:

    Cancer FTW!

  17. Pretentious White Girl says:

    Wow. That’s wrong in like 8 different ways.

  18. iHigh says:

    i’ve seen those all over israel, pretty clever when you thing about that.

  19. ripple says:

    Nest goddamn you! NEEESSSSTTTT, AAARGGGHHHHHH!!!

  20. jluve82 says:

    The only advantage to no nesting is that it is now easier to see where the comments left off…not enough of an upside in my opinion to warrant not bringing them back. Nests please??

  21. Killerwit says:

    FailBlog trying to truly alienate skads of regular posters by changing thread composition WIN

  22. thepowerofblue says:

    (Failblog won’t be fun anymore below this level)

  23. Killerwit says:

    Seriously, look at the exponential decrease in comments. Tragic. Isn’t someone on her tech0savvy enough to create their own blog with nesting where people can go and burn each other without the slightest modicum of oversight/censorship. Please!! ANYBODY!!! FAILBLOG GREEN IS MADE OF LETDOWN!

  24. Slim Shammy says:

    I’m no fun? Oh, I’ll leave so….

    Bye….

    *sad walking away music plays*

  25. Suellen says:

    Gotta catch ‘em all!
    I knew they were putting nicotine into those damn pokeballs..

  26. Mateo says:

    Burn of the week !

  27. NestingFail says:

    It turns out getting rid of the nesting was all that was needed to get rid of the 2000+ *first* and *masturbates* wankers. Flat comments FTW!

  28. abstract says:

    wow, i hate this new layout. I cant reply to a particular comment, just at the bottom

  29. abstract says:

    this sucks. let’s riot…..rather, let us petition. we want the old format back

  30. Пендосы сакс! says:

    someone’s elbow at left side of pic – win!!!

  31. jenbrooke says:

    That’s so excellent!

    Also, I love that there are no more nested comments. People would nest just to get to the top of the list, even when it had nothing to do with what they were replying to. Keeps out the turds a bit, eh?

  32. abstract says:

    why? you have an elbow fettish?

  33. abstract says:

    jenbrooke, what do you mean we would nest to get to the top of a list? we just would reply to other’s comments. not really a competition to see who can get to the top of whatever list you refer to.

  34. State Your Name says:

    Well, might as well make the most of it. While I wait for the Fail Folk to rectify this self-Fail of theirs, I shall do something constructive.

  35. Heather says:

    I totally agree about no nesting. Makes things SO much easier to read.

  36. State Your Name says:

    LAST!!1!!11!! lololololol

  37. abstract says:

    yeah, for .25 Sec.

  38. abstract says:

    ok, 6 min

  39. Slim Shammy says:

    I need a LIGHT

  40. Пендосы сакс! says:

    *lights*

  41. Пендосы сакс! says:

    10 min later *masturbates*

  42. Jlcb says:

    Nesting is sooooo much better!! failblog bring back nesting plz

  43. modpodopdom says:

    There is no structure or context to this form of layout, it is a cacophony of comments, a shotgun approach making any meaningful exchange impossible.

    And despite the fail bravado of fail blog, there are some interesting crits on society and the internet. I would also add that the semantic sparing between members of this community is one of the more intelligent features of this blog. This layout is not conducive to allowing this form of discourse and that sux.

    expediency == mediocrity

    expediency win … fail blog f-ail

  44. State Your Name says:

    And never was there a more glorious six minutes in the reckoning of the universe!

    As for this nesting problem of ours… what would Gandhi do? :|

  45. Пендосы сакс! says:

    what would Gandhi do? *masturbating*

  46. Avis says:

    Jenbrooke, how do you figure nesting comments brings one to the top of the list? It automatically puts you at the bottom. And the fact that I could not tag this comment directly to yours is exactly why we want the nests back. As a side note, Burn of the Week will become a thing of the past without the nests, too.

  47. Seems like fixing what ain’t broken is the thing to do lately. DEAR INTARWEBS, PLEASE STOP SCREWING WITH LAYOUTS THAT GET THE JOB DONE.

  48. State Your Name says:

    Well, BotW kinda is a thing of the past right now. Even with the nesting on, at that.

  49. State Your Name says:

    Dammit. Closing tag fail.

  50. Пендосы сакс! says:

    ffs won’t u stop crying about bullshit nesting thingy?

  51. Avis says:

    @ State Your Name, Maybe they phased it out so when they did this we wouldn’t notice.

  52. Slim Shammy says:

    I stand under you with that

  53. State Your Name says:

    And all this time we thought the conspiracy was about the rainbows in our water… :(

  54. Avis says:

    I would like to point out that GraphJam still has nesting comments. I’m betting Engrish and Pundit Kitchen do too. Maybe……

  55. State Your Name says:

    Everyone but FAIL Blog, in fact.

  56. “Anomnomnomymous on Sep. 12, 2008 at 8:53 am says: Your comment is awaiting moderation. ”

    The hell is this shit? Give me a call when this site goes back to displaying failure and stops partaking in it.

  57. sam says:

    gotta smoke ‘em all

  58. raelalt says:

    (comments won’t nest below, or above, or even in the @#$%in’ middle.)

  59. Dragonwriter says:

    GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!

    *twitch*

  60. Beren says:

    (Comments won’t Nest)
    (But Comments Must Nest)
    (Comments need Juicy worms to feed on)
    (I was just starting to like it here and my nest Has gone)
    Give us nests back Failblog! WHY THE F*U*C*K DID YOU TAKE THEM AWAY IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!!

  61. dummy says:

    Please failblog, bring back the old format. I believe the nesting of comments was the most entertaining part of the blog.

  62. Beren says:

    *twitch*

    *twitch*

    Mmmmmm

    Ahhhh

    Oooohhhhhh

    No I can’t keep it up – masturbating is no fun without nesting.

    *Sniffs*

  63. Masturbation is fun when evvveryone can see you doing it. *masturbates*

  64. raelalt says:

    What a cruel thing to do, especially on a Friday. Guess I’ll move over to Pundits Kitchen for a while.

  65. fluffy says:

    How about we move to someplace like graphjam, until failblog fixes itself or graphjam loses it’s nesting?

  66. Beren says:

    See you there when I get back from Holidays – Searching for Fail in the south of France…

  67. Пендосы сакс! says:

    masturbation is only with dead man’s hand fun!

  68. Mikha'el says:

    Saw the same thing, but in Jerusalem.

  69. abstract says:

    ok, if we are abandoning the fail boat we all have to do it together. we have to organize

  70. Пендосы сакс! says:

    via webcam?

  71. Loz says:

    I love how all these random people who I’ve never seen on failblog before are all of a sudden commenting and demanding the nesting back lol. Our woodwork is leaking.
    And Beren, there isn’t much fail to be found in the south of France I’m afraid. It’s pretty much a fantastic place.

  72. Rae says:

    OMG, I know where this is! This is in Israel, I have a dozen pictures of this. One of the guys in our group actually tried to get some cigarettes out of the machine.

  73. anonyhippotamous says:

    You saw masturbation with a dead man’s hand in Jerusalem? O_o
    Oh and back to the picture, they targeted their demographic correctly, entice them with what they -really- want ;)

  74. Shannon says:

    Fck, I really wanna know who’s replying to who…

  75. Jami says:

    I wish they’d bring back the nesting so I could say “Love the Dogma quote. Kevin Smith FTW!”

  76. Пендосы сакс! says:

    duh.. but u just said it even without nesting shit!

  77. Killerwit says:

    CATS AND DOGS LIVING TOGETHER!! TOTAL ANARCHY!!!

  78. Sara J says:

    Who’s replying to WHOM! See, you can’t even correct anyone’s grammar anymore!

    *cries*

  79. david says:

    the comments won’t nest below any level! sad face.

  80. raelalt says:

    Sara J on Sep. 12, 2008 at 11:19 am says:

    Who’s replying to WHOM! See, you can’t even correct anyone’s grammar anymore!
    ======================
    Well at least that’s a WIN.

  81. abstract says:

    Shannon on Sep. 12, 2008 at 10:21 am says:

    Fck, I really wanna know who’s replying to who…

    —————————————————————–
    here, try this, just copy/paste

    —————————————————————–
    oui, I can’t wait to have enough money to come visit. I housed an exchange student from aix en provence (not sure if i spelled that correctly) beautiful indeed

    • Loz says:

      Spelt correctly :) Although it’s hyphenated. I’ve visited France more than ten times, it’s my favourite country. Hope to live there one day, you can come stay with me!

      • the pun-isher says:

        Interested in a valley in the corbieres, complete with restored late roman (foundation about 400 AD) villa? It’s in the triangle, Lezignan, Narbonne, Perpignan. Going cheap at the moment due to the well running dry.

  84. zombiecrashtest says:

    this is much better than a dumpster. at least the babies can party in there.

  85. Sara J says:

    My baby is kicking out his displeasure in Morse code.

  86. K2am says:

    Phillip Morris WIN!

  87. Outback Jon says:

    “Burn of the week !”

    ——————–

    What was?

  88. daweefolkxXx says:

    dammit failblog, if you’re gonna take away nesting, at least give us the ability to comment below someone we WANT to, so we can keep conversations understandable.

  89. Mikha'el says:

    It was in Jerusalem not Tel Aviv!

  90. RogueThree says:

    I think Nintendo’s gonna sue somebody.

  91. Alex J. says:

    Looks like Winston-Salem!

  92. will says:

    I saw one of these in eilat. it also had wrapped up bundles of cash.

  93. Lauren says:

    lmao. that’s hilarious.

  94. Ginger'Snap says:

    i actually saw this when i went to Tel Aviv…and for some odd reason i think this picture was from that same exact trip

  95. Liza says:

    OMW, I wonder what Marlboro would say about this! Whahahaha

  96. Dan says:

    Political correctness FAIL

    Marlboro WIN

    LOL!

  97. Fail says:

    of course its from israel ~_~
    fits so much..

  98. julie says:

    that’s so funny! I knew that was in tel aviv..those things are EVERYWHERE!

  99. julie says:

    i’ve actually never seen one in yaffo…. theyre all over TA though.. some of the packs are wrapped in money too lol like 20 or 50 shekel bills

  100. grafixx says:

    dude! that shit is real! i saw it. i tried to grab a pack of smokes, but…. FAIL.

  101. hotfuzz459 says:

    this is in Aus. i see Marlboro, Winfield, lol.

  102. Joey Vincent says:

    I’ve been there!

  103. Noah Senzel says:

    I went there summer ‘08. Never thought to submit the photo though. If I recall correctly, there were also a deck of cards wrapped in a 50 scheckel bill and a deck of cards wrapped in a 100 scheckel bill.

  104. Ben says:

    Holy shit! I saw that picture and wondered if that is the one in Yaffo. I saw the caption and can’t believe I’ve been there. My Facebook profile pic was taken there. It’s outside of a bakery in the old-Yaffo section of Tel Aviv.

  105. Sticky Note says:

    “Sentret! How many times have I told you to go to rehab!?”
    “…tret?”
    “…Jigglypuff? you’re here too!? And squirtle? If you keep doing stardust, you’ll wind up like Amy Winehouse’s Caterpie!”

  106. Subrhyme says:

    Too bad…you can’t see the sea horse carousel right next to it with the hyperdermic needles for handlebars :-(

  107. Sam Margoles says:

    is this Jonathan Messing?

  108. The Failer says:

    Do YOU WANT TO BE A SMOKING MASTER? SMOKIMON! DO YOU HAVE THE SKILLS TO BE#1!
