She’s not a prostitute, but HERE’S HER ADDRESS just in case. The correction is definitely a fail. May as well put a sign in her front yard: “Just so you know, a prostitute does NOT live here.”
After the prior allegations in the previous article, I’m sure she was practically demanding a sign in her yard stating that she’s not a prostitute. After all, it could dampen things at the PTA.
True story.
.
One day a while back Fuzz was visiting some used bookstores in San Francisco. They were good stores, but located in a somewhat rough neighborhood. It was a Saturday morning and one of the stores hadn’t opened yet, so Fuzz leaned against a lamppost on the sidewalk outside and waited for it to open. Eventually it did, and he went in, got some books, and went home.
.
That evening, during dinner, he was watching the local TV news. He noticed they were showing a picture of the very same neighborhood he’d been in just that morning … in fact, it was the very same street corner … and the very same lamppost … and he then realized … THAT WAS HIM.
.
There was Fuzz on TV, leaning against a lamppost.
.
It was a story on male prostitution in downtown San Francisco.
Only friends really familiar with my backside might have recognized me — because they shot the picture from behind (the camera must have been in the store). So, I’ve not had anyone tell me they remember when they saw my butt on TV.
Notice in next day’s paper:
“The person is yesterday’s correction complained quite strongly ‘Your paper never gets anything correct. It’s Diana, with an A!”
They say a thousand monkies on a thousand typewriters could eventually recreate the works of Shakespeare. Their failures are published as Danielle Steel novels.
And how is this a “correction fail”? It looks like the fail was with the original news story not the correction. On another note, I’d say this lady has a good law suit potential. She can simply claim emotional and reputation damage do to this “misprint”.
Honestly guys, where is your taste? Ever heard of “Categorical imperative”?! Probably not. Probably you never had an embarassing moment you don’t want to share with anybody else…
Otherwise you wouldn’t find this funny but would start campaigning against the police department and the news paper that published that shit (and against the laws that don’t prohibit or even require publishing such personal information of average people).
Yea who needs privacy? Only those criminal people that have to hide something…
Hasn’t anyone ever seen Headlines on the Tonight Show? (I only watch when Letterman is a rerun, honest…) This was on about 2 years ago. It’s in one of the ‘Headlines – Greatest Hits’ episodes on iTunes. You want lots of fail, check that out, there’s a good 20 minutes of nonstop fail for like $1.99.
Prostitution?
*no need to masturbate*
lack of prostitution, you mean. Need to masturbate.
Prostitution at a train crossing? Kinky!
maybe she did ride the S.L.U.T.
n1
No, see, in that case, she *was* the S.L.U.T.
No, prostitutes do it for the money. Sluts do it for the love of the game.
or for the beauty of the train
or for the comfort of the rain
Blame it on the rain, yeah, yeah.
Blame it on Rio, Rio Grande RR that is.
Her street name is Rio, and she really shows you all she can.
She’s a bird of paradise.
She’s as cold as ice
there’s a lady i know
if i didn’t know her
she’d be the lady
i didn’t know
Rhymes won’t nest below this level
What about senator McCain?
Good lord this is lame -_-
What a shame!
How mundane…
*tch* Don’t complain!
I’ve lost, damnit!
Shame, Shame (if it’s the same Dame)
So how many people rode the S.L.U.T.?
YOU should know that.
i rode the S.L.U.T. Its awfully bumpy.
South Lake FTW.
what does ftw stand for
YOU FAIL
The South Lake Union Trolley System passes through train tracks!?!?
So much for this being a “G” rated site.
Ever heard of t3h G-spot?
Nice one. I would have loved to see her face.
Maybe turn the lights on next time?
but that spoils the mood
She was a two-bagger. You put one on your head in case hers falls off.
railroad crossing?
*prostitutes*
Prostitutes?
*crosses*
In soviet Russia, crosses prostitutes you!
Maybe she rode the train…really hard….and really fast.
You bet. All night long baby.
I bet she was a truck driver…
Delivering fresh ho-made sauce, no doubt.
I’d say she got railed…
Looks like she RODE the rails…
Ummmm… isn’t that exactly the point of this thread??
maybe shes just a whore
like your mom… sorry, couldn’t resist
neight could your mom and sister. love being balls deep in both of them…
“No results found for neight: Did you mean night (in dictionary) or Night (in reference)?”
I think he ment neither..
What did you think he ment?
KEYBOARD/OPERATOR FAIL
Didn’t failure to stop what – maybe solicitations. Apparently they have some thing where prostitution is legal every except at a railroad crossing.
woah, dude, get a new translation program
Not original stolen-from-Jay-Leno fail?
Maybe she pulled a train
Hm, what was the origin news?
Puplished the newspaper the full name with the mark “fined for prostitution” ?
… if it was so, it would be hardely hard…
doodely doo
Ok…what?
NO idea. I’m snickering at the word “puplished” though.
I heard the Muppets run their own pupplication now.
Pupl Fiction.
Maybe he would be clearer if he acted out what he wanted to say with sock puplets?
It’s short for ‘those puppies were delicious’.
She was written up for prostitution, then again for failing to not prostitute by the railroad. Isn’t it obvious?
Maybe you’re just a whore!
ok, then where’s my money you owe me from last night?
Woah, woah, woah…backup there just a second, ho! I thought last night was a freebie, a sampler, a taster (even though you did all the tasting)?
Look buddy, you poke you pay.
:[ We’re serious.
yeah, BondFand and McFail are my pimps, they’ll beat the living sh** out of you……you poke, you pay..lol
can I at least have my underwear back first?
Nope
I better pay then
Damn straight
*slaps Goon around a few times anyway just to teach him a lesson*
how can you have 2 pimps? O.o
It’s not the correction that fails, it’s the original reporting.
How the hell do you confuse the two?
Her pimp told her not to stop at that railroad crossing, what could she do?
Prostotution fail.
Not first.
She’s not a prostitute, but HERE’S HER ADDRESS just in case. The correction is definitely a fail. May as well put a sign in her front yard: “Just so you know, a prostitute does NOT live here.”
After the prior allegations in the previous article, I’m sure she was practically demanding a sign in her yard stating that she’s not a prostitute. After all, it could dampen things at the PTA.
So do her children come first at Park Elementary?
pob!
write 100 lines on rudeness!
lmfao, that was funny as hell!
No, her children only came first until the correction came out.
I’m sure their dove don’t fly…
Is this a “correction fail” or a “correction WIN”? Cuz…they didn’t fail to correct it.
Prosecution = prostitution ?
In reality, it’s the other way round. If you get caught.
I don’t know. Prosecutors are severely under-paid. He just may be right!
Prosecutors are likelier to be the johns …
I hate when that happens!
That is one hell of a typo. What was the reporter thinking of at the time, I wonder?
Not a typo or a reporting fail, the Clerk of Courts Office is responsible. Unless she really is a prostitute and paid them all off.
I’ve never heard of a pro /parting/ with money …
(doesn’t need to be in money)

Were you wearing leather hot-pants to this bookstore?
Getting the hot pants again, are you, dilly?
And … a hem … how is it you’re so familiar with the operations of the Clerk of Courts Office?
Crap…ok, meet me behind the office and I’ll pay you off.
Burned! That makes the Squishables ad on the right side even more amusing.
“Giant squishy spheres of Fuzzy love! They’re big! Hug them! Hug them now!”
Did you see the part where it says 15″ of fuzzy??
I didn’t see it and I’m really not inclined to do so. Feel free to examine it some more, though.
Oh, I’m gonna.
By “books” you mean elbow length rubber gloves and a can of crisco, right?
By elbow length, etc., you’re requesting the San Can of Crisco treat, right?
For you, izzyboy — *elbows and winks*
People are quick to call you a prostitute, it’s obnoxious. I don’t think you were there selling your arse, if that’s any consolation.
sue for slander
That’s your solution to everything.
She’s American, we’ll sue over whether our toilet paper has less than a thousand sheets on the roll.
Or if she spills coffee on herself and there was no written warning that it was hot.
Or if she ate nothing but “food” from McDonalds and got fat because no told her it was bad for her.
Or if McDonalds made her fat.
Damn, Dragon! You’re fast.
Hah. Pllbbt. :p
No, I mean, you’re FAST, young lady.
And still I stand by my “Pllbbt.” In fact, I’ll even add a “NEENER!”
:p
I sue you, you sue me, she sues them, and they sue me . . . they ought to rewrite the Bible at this point to say “SUE THY NEIGHBOR!”
I can’t until next Tuesday. My neighbor is 12th on my list. Right below: “Sue zoo for having monkeys live in house habitat.”
I know what they’re REALLY trying to say!
She’s libel to.
So, Fuzz will be next to the human robot guy again, right?
Oh, tell him to bring change this time; he totally ripped me out of a “tip”.
OMG Fuzz, that’s horrible! Did your friends recognize you?
How do you think they became his friends in the first place?
Only friends really familiar with my backside might have recognized me — because they shot the picture from behind (the camera must have been in the store). So, I’ve not had anyone tell me they remember when they saw my butt on TV.
Hmmm…I’ve actually seen fuzz’s butt.* I think I would have recognized him.
*He must not have been flying that day, because he was, in fact, wearing pants. Dangit.
Remember that time you saw your own butt on TV.
Did Fuzz claim an appearance fee from the station?
So the whore can’t drive?
22 lol, now she can sue for slander
So does she have to return the money, or not?
Notice in next day’s paper:
“The person is yesterday’s correction complained quite strongly ‘Your paper never gets anything correct. It’s Diana, with an A!”
They should borrow the scarlet colored one in FAIL.
Obscure literary reference win.
What?? Hawthorne is obscure?
To the general American public, it is >.>
Then again, I’m not part of the general American public – I’m Ye Olde Uber-Nerde.
Yeah, I do expect kids are probably reading nothing but manga and Danielle Steel in high school English these days.
Danielle Steele writes?! I thought that was just vomit on the page. Silly me.
If Danielle Steele writes, then i have a lot of perfume in my septic tank
They say a thousand monkies on a thousand typewriters could eventually recreate the works of Shakespeare. Their failures are published as Danielle Steel novels.
“Novels” is an awfully strong word for Danielle Steel puplications.
HEE! WIN!!
And I actually feel that way about most of the American writers. Pleh!
I bet J. K. Rowling rocks your dragon-socks!
She does indeed!
And dragon-socks are hard to knock off, yanno.
Are those like tiny monks?
Of the simian order.
How is this a fail?
Isn’t it well corrected so you can’t read it…
Yes, how did we all miss that????
*facepalm*
You know, if you use Napalm instead, you’ll never have to read their stupid comments again…
Correct me if I’m wrong…but isn’t DC the only city in the US divided into quadrants like NW and SW? If so, redacting fail!
You’re wrong.
lol, too stupid…..
Trust the Chambersburg paper to end up on here.
And how is this a “correction fail”? It looks like the fail was with the original news story not the correction. On another note, I’d say this lady has a good law suit potential. She can simply claim emotional and reputation damage do to this “misprint”.
Honestly guys, where is your taste? Ever heard of “Categorical imperative”?! Probably not. Probably you never had an embarassing moment you don’t want to share with anybody else…

Yea who needs privacy? Only those criminal people that have to hide something…
Doublethink. 1984.
Oh please. I’ve had so many embarrassing moments published right here on Failblog that I could write a book.
Actually, that could be an interesting idea. If nothing else, you could use some of the comment threads for dialog between characters.
Don’t think I haven’t been tempted!
I think there needs to be a “Little Bird” and a “Loz” in my next book, for sure!
You are more than welcome to use anything I say here! Not that I ever have anything of substance to say….
Don’t make me thwack you with this halibut…!
Ha-HA! But I’m the one with all the halibuts!!
Hee…remember when Hali fell on her butt?
Oh my goodness that is the nicest thought.
Alright so you want equal injustice for everyone?
Come on I *can* laugh about mishaps. But certainly not about destroying somebody else’s dignity and harming his/her privacy.
Hasn’t anyone ever seen Headlines on the Tonight Show? (I only watch when Letterman is a rerun, honest…) This was on about 2 years ago. It’s in one of the ‘Headlines – Greatest Hits’ episodes on iTunes. You want lots of fail, check that out, there’s a good 20 minutes of nonstop fail for like $1.99.
“…the narrative was right, but the facts were wrong….”
So…instead of pulling a train she was merely racing one. B-)=
Prostitution? Failure to stop at railroad crossing? How close!
How do you confuse not stopping at a railroad crossing with prostitution?
Haha I remember this well. This happened in the town of Watertown, SD. My mother worked with this lady.
priceless
lalalalalalalalala……rawr……figaro…..figaro…..figaro….de…me za de me za de me za de oh
hmm, sexism, you think?
Great points altogether, you just received a emblem new reader. What may you recommend about your submit that you made a few days ago? Any certain?
