That is fascinating, and your demonstration of it. There must be some limitation in regards to polysyllabic words though. I would surmise that perception must break down in proportion to the number of syllables and the length of the word.
What McPeepants posted has been circling on the internet since 2003. I’ve seen it many many times, and it’s always the same text. I was very intrigued the first time I saw this and tried reading up more on this study, but apparently it didn’t really take place. Very fascinating that we’re all able to read that text, tho.

I accidentally a nerd.
If I were in a district in which my kid were to attend a school for which the mascot was the “dawgs”, s/he would be transferred immediately. Is this a ghetto school? This is appalling. “No dogs” sign aside, this is not funny.
wtf are you talking about? Dawgs is a common way in which many “dog” mascot schools say/write “dogs”. And how exactly does that make this a ghetto school?
At least you saw the “no dogs” sign, so you’re not a complete idiot.
While his delivery style needs work, I do agree with yousuck (name needs work too). The University of Washington Huskies are often referred to as the Dawgs.
That’s the U.W. cheer as well. A game between them would be interesting. No one could tell whom was rooting for whom. Without looking for the weird costumes of course.
I am your devoted servant, but starting with “Damn, coyote…” is an argument in my favor. Rest your weary head and let soft breezes sing you to sleep. It’s 2:30 AM here in Washington and I am about to snooze myself.
Oui! Exactly that No daylight savings time. I guess they figured they had enough and didn’t need to save any more. GMT 11:17 now – my time 14:17 now. Personally I wish they would split the difference and call it good and get rid of it all together.
No, I’ll leave the being a complete idiot to you since you seem to have the corner on that market.
So it’s acceptable to spell dog some other way than how it’s supposed to be spelled and it’s acceptable that the school embraces this? I understand how it’s pronounced. That doesn’t give an educational facility artistic license over a word that has been spelled one way for centuries, only to replace it with a spelling based in hip-hop culture. Northern Illinois University’s mascot is The Huskies and guess what? They’re not dawgz or dawgs or wtf-ever you want to call them. They’re The Huskies.
And Mel, wtf are you babbling about? How is The Spirits appalling? Did I say I don’t believe in dogs? Or that one or the other is not politically correct? Dude, clean your lenses and attempt to comprehend what you’re reading before you start spewing sh*t that has nothing to do with the matter-at-hand.
WOW… uhm… wow. Nothing appalling about this. Since when are mascots required to be politically correct? Our school’s mascot is the Spirits. Maybe that’s offensive towards people who don’t believe in spirits.
i must sadly tell you this is not a ghetto school, but the university of georgia. they take their mascots seriously and the town is plastered with “dawg” paraphernalia.
You would hate Marin county then, cuz the school your kid would transfer to would be filled with white rich kids trying too hard to act ghetto, but is one of the most academically rigorous schools around.

According the Wikipedia page for the band, quite a bit of their stuff makes it into the show.
“Some of M83’s tracks were featured in several Top Gear episodes, including “Unrecorded” (series 3, episode 2; and series 4, episode 5), “Cyborg” (series 3, episode 5) and most notably, “Moonchild” (series 6, episode 6; series 7, episode 3; and series 7, episode 7).
M83’s “Don’t Save us From the Flames”, which, ironically, is about a car crash, was also featured in a Pontiac commercial.
I’ve been to their brewery, they are legit. Tasty if you like hops. I’m more into unibroue Maudite and La Fin du Monde, but they’re hard to find for cheap here in Philly. Where do you live? I’ve been to every brewery in every state I’ve been to
Georgia is where I am from and still live when I’m stateside and During the late 90’s and early 00’s we had a plethora of microbrews around the Atlanta area. Still some good ones. The largest is Sweetwater. They do several year round flavors and a few seasonal and its a great place to visit on the weekend when you do the tour then party with food and beer.
As for Wa, thats where I lived a couple years and got my start in homebrewing
Look, I don’t know where you got the idea that I am homosexual, but please stop it. It’s just really irritating, and is an overused insult. Oh, and try going on Failblog WITHOUT wanking.
With them applebottom jeans, boots with the furrrr. The whole club was lookin’ at hurrr. She hit the flo’, next thang you kno’, shorty got low, low, low.
In the manner he uses the word, yes.
Although, should I be MISTAKENLY called one, not on purpose, not by assumption, then I would be a tad annoyed, but no.
You are surely retarded or seeking recognition – insult about my masturbation is more overused, and stating that it is all I say is so very lame… and if you look back to some of your statements you’ll know why I presume you are gay.
You presume I am gay because you have a sick mind. Why? Look at my past statements closely. They have no implications whatsoever I am attracted to the same sex. YOU just interpret them as having a sexual meaning. Thus, you can only perceive my comments in a sexual way. Not logically, not metaphorically, but pornographically. I refuse to back down.
Don’t back down. But neither should you bother to give him any thought. Rather ignore him. Let him prattle on until he gets bored or his mom tells him that it is his bedtime. That way, his ignorance is easily seen by all, and you don’t even have to lift a finger.

It just takes a little patience… The trolls will get distracted by something shiny, they always do… loves!
This makes no sense at all. I looked up DAWG on the internet and came up with the Dog Adoption & Welfare Group. Maybe they are only accepting dogs in the rear. (Eagerly awaits the double-entendre jokes to ensure)
It stands for San Rafael, because this school is called San Rafael High School…located in San Rafael, California…it is also the school where in the early 1970s the term 420 was created and that is the only claim to fame the school has…until NOW!
The SR is for San Rafael High School. When I first saw this, I had a little high school rivalry flashback, because I went to cross-town rival Terra Linda High School…whose mascot is the Trojan…which i’ve come to realize is an auto-fail in itself because the Trojans LOST the Trojan War. It’s literally a loser mascot. If you’re still into stuff like that, anyway.
reminds me of when african-americans weren’t allowed on the premiere’s of their own movies :’( if it says home of the dogs, surely they should be welcome? but then on the other hand… if it was the sharks or tigers or cougars or whatever it might be a little difficult, so maybe it does make sense after all -_-’
OH I mean the no dogs allowed makes sense… Not the African-Americans not allowed to their own movies… That’s still shit (of course luckily things have changed)
Heh. I don’t know if anyone still checks this, but I go to a school near this one. This is San Rafael High in Marin. Its an interesting school. That’s the soccer field where we regularly beat them down. And we refer to them as the puppies, not the dawgs.
Good for cats
Maybe they’re dyslexic, and really meant no gods.
But if they are dyslexic surely they love Juses
Shirley?
I fail understanding that reference (and too many meanings for shirley in urbandictionary)
But if they are dyslexic, Shirley, they love Juses.
that help?
Oh. I always miss these jokes related to English pronunciation. In the same way that I always miss English pronunciation in general

and its develop…just like waxx said…
ur right someone didn’t go to Sweet Cheeks DayCare…
ur not a pro-
ur a n00b

If their dyslexic they would mean their mascot is the sgwad..?

At least you saw the “no dogs” sign, so you’re not a complete idiot.
As much as I hate to agree with someone called “yousuck”, she’s actually right. “Dawg” is becoming more and more common, and in all kinds of schools.
While his delivery style needs work, I do agree with yousuck (name needs work too). The University of Washington Huskies are often referred to as the Dawgs.
And the world famous Georgia Bulldogs (University Of Georgia), their cheer is “Go Dawgs!”
That’s the U.W. cheer as well. A game between them would be interesting. No one could tell whom was rooting for whom. Without looking for the weird costumes of course.
Oh America, you’re so cute
Ugh. Not so much.
You are up too late and getting cranky.
Damn, coyote, I thought you liked me.
I am your devoted servant, but starting with “Damn, coyote…” is an argument in my favor. Rest your weary head and let soft breezes sing you to sleep. It’s 2:30 AM here in Washington and I am about to snooze myself.
Say hi to pob for me
He’s in Washington so of course you must know him.
*lol*
And you west coasters are up late! oh its Friday. No school night

No I win its 13:33 here!

+3 GMT zone.
You can’t be +3 because I’m in GMT and you’re only 2
ahead of me! Unless you’re not in daylight savings.
Oui! Exactly that
No daylight savings time. I guess they figured they had enough and didn’t need to save any more. GMT 11:17 now – my time 14:17 now. Personally I wish they would split the difference and call it good and get rid of it all together.
No, I’ll leave the being a complete idiot to you since you seem to have the corner on that market.
So it’s acceptable to spell dog some other way than how it’s supposed to be spelled and it’s acceptable that the school embraces this? I understand how it’s pronounced.

WOW… uhm… wow. Nothing appalling about this. Since when are mascots required to be politically correct? Our school’s mascot is the Spirits. Maybe that’s offensive towards people who don’t believe in spirits.
HOW DARE MY SCHOOL.
i must sadly tell you this is not a ghetto school, but the university of georgia. they take their mascots seriously and the town is plastered with “dawg” paraphernalia.
I must sadly tell you this is not the University of Georgia, they do not have a dog/dawg wearing a hat with the letters SR.
they are the Bulldogs. nickname Dawgs.
You would hate Marin county then, cuz the school your kid would transfer to would be filled with white rich kids trying too hard to act ghetto, but is one of the most academically rigorous schools around.
It’s San Rafael High School in California. It’s so ghetto that they even offer sailing as a P.E. option.
LOL notice the NO DOGS sign behind it. XD
First doggzstlyle
‘Welcome home of the dawgs’, what an odd sentence.
I just accidentally all of the dawgs. What should I do?
Flee the country. Now.
Why would you tell him that? Now he’ll move from my country to yours. Thanks and all, but…..
Actually, just to be safe, he should probably flee the planet.
He should also flee the galaxy. I’ve heard Alpha Centauri is nice in July.
Hint: Alpha Centauri is within this galaxy. In fact, its one of our closest neighbors within it and hence about as far apart from the condition you describe as an extrasolar body can possibly be.
It is our closest neighbor.
Keep away from Sirius. It’s the dog star.
Not the dawg star? Because there are no dogs allowed, you know!
Siriusly?
Why Shirley, she must be Sirius!
(Sorry, I couldn’t help tying the threads.)
100 points to you, sir!
Who, me? *curtsies*
Joe Schmoe (re Alpha Centauri) “It is our closest neighbor.”
It’s close but it gets no cigar. Proxima Centauri is the closest star to us
I’m afraid that would be the sun
What are you afraid of? Accidentally killing yourself?
Oops, I accidenty the whole sun…
Congratulations. You just accomplished what a meteor tried to and eliminated life on Earth.
Wow, I wuz just out-pedanted.
You wuz!

I can see it from my back porch. That makes me an astronaut.
Oh, and Interstellar geography FAIL.
Isn’t Alpha Centauri in our Galaxy?
To be fair, it does sound better than M33 in August.

Yeah. Sid Meier lives there.
I think he’s next door in M31…
I’m going to see M83 in concert next week.
I have heard some of their work without knowing it since I watch Top Gear.
I don’t think I’ve heard them on Top Gear?
According the Wikipedia page for the band, quite a bit of their stuff makes it into the show.
“Some of M83’s tracks were featured in several Top Gear episodes, including “Unrecorded” (series 3, episode 2; and series 4, episode 5), “Cyborg” (series 3, episode 5) and most notably, “Moonchild” (series 6, episode 6; series 7, episode 3; and series 7, episode 7).

Haha! I’ll have to listen more carefully in future.
I’m excited to hear them live.
Enjoy! If I heard them play in concert, I’d probably just want hop in my car and drive away.
*snork*
LOL GUYS IM FROM AFRIKA WHADDAP YALL
Hey thats my high school! Hahaha!
ALL of the Dawgs? The whole team? You should probably get a rabies vaccination, first!
It would have been very punny if m’lady had said “flea the country”…
*sigh*, I’m loosing my wit but I thought that wasn’t an option!
Find homes for all of your puppies.
I just accidentally all of the puppies. What should I do?
HIDE in Lol Celebs, no one will ever think of looking there!
Did you let the dawgs out?
Wholetthedogsout?woofwoof!!

In Soviet Russia, action verb uses you.
I’m sure your little adverbs will be darling.

Can’t wait til I get back home to hit the local Taco Mac for some micorbrews.

Oh, here: they brewed this from the oldest recipe ever found for beer:

Yes, but this isn’t a proofread fail. This is completely intentional.
och first time im first:D
eeer maybe not xD
Don’t worry, you were only 5 out.
Do you mean tooth, mr?
Ignore him. He’s an annoying troll with masturbation on the brain.
and you are an annoying gay troll. Say something funny once:P
Look, I don’t know where you got the idea that I am homosexual, but please stop it. It’s just really irritating, and is an overused insult. Oh, and try going on Failblog WITHOUT wanking.
Vienna obviously does not know what a troll is. It’s sad really, he is so sadly lacking in self-awareness.
He also lacks in self-restraint.
But excels at self-abuse.
… in his parent’s basement. It’s some kind of self-abasement.
It’s sub-par, at any rate.
Below the salt.
Puts me under the weather.
If I could think of one to add to this thread I’d have a cellarbratory wank.
That’s hitting (yourself) below the belt.
I bet his favorite song is “Get Low”.
With them applebottom jeans, boots with the furrrr. The whole club was lookin’ at hurrr. She hit the flo’, next thang you kno’, shorty got low, low, low.
That’s a low blow.
I love you guys.
Being called a homosexual is insulting?
In the manner he uses the word, yes.
Although, should I be MISTAKENLY called one, not on purpose, not by assumption, then I would be a tad annoyed, but no.
Just say Loz’s magic words and it will no longer be an issue:
Au-dessous de moi.
‘Below me’? What does that even mean?
Yeah what was that? I remember saying it but I forget the context.
Time blows by so fast.
From the Dingle Berry name fail. Someone said anyone who comments below me is gay and the rest was history…
failblog.org/2008/10/06/name-fail/#comment-124893
Ahhh yes! A fine thread it was, too.
Yes; languages, sexuality, confusion and a Monty Python quote – all the hallmarks of a great thread.
Maybe something along the lines of “don’t stoop to their level”.
I’m only guessing here. I don’t know much french (kissing and fries is about it).
Seriously…what else do you need to know??
Toast, don’t forget the toast! Other then that I’m with you.
Oh, you guys forgot bread, vanilla, maids, silk (pie), maids, and maids. Did I mention maids? You can never forget the french maids!
Oui! Oui!
Said she.
My lovely little maid.
You are surely retarded or seeking recognition – insult about my masturbation is more overused, and stating that it is all I say is so very lame… and if you look back to some of your statements you’ll know why I presume you are gay.

Not drying up, just held back on the flames a little whilst…
What…you’ve never heard of a smoldering glance before? I don’t need friction to get the heat going.
There’s a joke about dipsticks and oil gauges to be made here, I think…

It’s ‘honourable’ usually. I think.
That’s strange, I thought Peter ‘Dracula’ Mandelson was honourary. Oh, he’s a Lord. Sorry, bit of UK politics confusion. All cleared up though.

Good job, darling… You get a congratulatory pat wherever you want it…
Good job, darling! You get a congratulatory pat wherever you want it…
Hee…seems he’ll get it twice, too!
I like this ‘oblivion’ person. So mysterious. Stay and comment some more!
Indeed.
Here, this is more appropriate.
Woof woof woof…. meow
you seem confused…like bondfan.
This makes no sense at all. I looked up DAWG on the internet and came up with the Dog Adoption & Welfare Group. Maybe they are only accepting dogs in the rear. (Eagerly awaits the double-entendre jokes to ensure)
Crap, first typo…how about ensue?
What about ensue?
I’m sure Sue will ensue you never make a typo again!
Hah! Saw the mistake before you, behold Bob in all his Glory.
Oh God. MY EYES! MY EYES!
Bob Dole can only be seen when you wear sunglasses! Otherwise his omnipotent eyes will burn you!
You mean impotent eye… hence all of the Viagra ads…
He’d be even scarier if his eye was NOT impotent.
Proof twice, post once.
I cut it twice and it’s still too short…
Sillyl! You just need an IT stretcher.
You can get IT on E-Bay.
Can I get a round TUIT there too?!?!?!
Get used to the idea that as far as you’re concerned, it’ll never be long enough.
Once proofed, post twice.
What’s the ‘SR’ stan for on the dogs hat in the pic on the flag ?
Stand lol
Proof twice, post once.
Thanks, Captain Obvious!
lmao
80 proof, post drunk.
“That isn’t proof, it’s circumstantial evidence!”
It WAS evidence…now it’s gone!
*hic!*
Shouldn’t you be refueling with a higher octane? 80 proof is so…. weak!
Now you’re getting into the spirit.
And into the spirits!
Can I still wine about it?
If you must.
I think it stands for San Rafael, which is in Marin County, CA.
San Rafael High School, if you really want to know.
It stands for San Rafael, because this school is called San Rafael High School…located in San Rafael, California…it is also the school where in the early 1970s the term 420 was created and that is the only claim to fame the school has…until NOW!
Just a little behind schedule… Cicili, the answer to your question is in my name. Just click, and you will be rewarded!
Alas, failure to read further before posting… yes, the very same San Rafael CA. So very near my former home of Novato, CA.
*pines for Marin County*
San Rafael. its a sign at San Rafael high school in california
So Dawgs are allowed but dogs are not
Correct..and no dawgs go to heaven. Which seems to imply that, for whatever reason, this field and the aforementioned heaven are mutually exclusive.
Michael Vicks House?
Finally, a topical joke.
*golf clap*
My dawg doesn’t want to associate with your dog anyway…
My dog is a cat. And he doesn’t associate with any other animals other then humans. No accounting for taste.
Ok… or its 1337 or Gangsta.
holy crap thats my old school!!
~There’s fear and darkness all around you…
quoth the emo, ‘Nevermore!’
Blue sign says “No Dogs.” Doesn’t say “No Dawgs”! ;-D
They should’ve proofed twice…then posted.
I think that it is cool
I better go pick up my paycheck. So if I’m MIA for a while it’s because all I wanna do is *three loud footsteps* and a *kaching* get my money.
Sorry, I couldn’t hear you over the sound effects.
LOL.
Well, the mascot is a Dawg and not a dog… Fail on the fail
Reply FAIL?
That’s my high school!!!!
No “Dogs” allowed, however it says
nothing about “Dawgs”.
NO DOGS ALOWWWEEDDD…
The SR is for San Rafael High School. When I first saw this, I had a little high school rivalry flashback, because I went to cross-town rival Terra Linda High School…whose mascot is the Trojan…which i’ve come to realize is an auto-fail in itself because the Trojans LOST the Trojan War. It’s literally a loser mascot. If you’re still into stuff like that, anyway.
I’m new here. What is the thing with the “Soviet Russia” comments?
OK, since no one wants to answere just f*ck your Soviet Russia! So there!
reminds me of when african-americans weren’t allowed on the premiere’s of their own movies
:’( if it says home of the dogs, surely they should be welcome? but then on the other hand… if it was the sharks or tigers or cougars or whatever it might be a little difficult, so maybe it does make sense after all -_-’
OH I mean the no dogs allowed makes sense… Not the African-Americans not allowed to their own movies… That’s still shit (of course luckily things have changed)
-_-’
damn comment split my textmoticon in two
At my school, the mascot is welcome as is required by law. Damn eagles and their protected status and nesting rights.
Origin of “420.” Also, location of Night Ranger’s “Sister Christian” video. And Mr. Tovani.
The chained-up gate doesn’t exactly seem very welcoming…
two FAIL in one? look at the sign at the bottom.
that’s not a fail, it a play on words.
UW has the mascot of Husky and they say “Go Dawgs” because there is a certain pronunciation required.
Dawg is not the same pronunciation as Dog.
this is near my house…i drive by it a lot and never noticed that sign
epic fail
HOLY SHIT, THIS SCHOOL IS RIGHT NEXT TO MY HOUSE! THEY ARE IN MY SCHOOL DISTRICT
I actually went to this high school and the spelling is intentional. Home of the JYD – Junk Yard Dawgs.
THATS MY HIGH SCHOOL!
this is san rafael hs, in san rafael, ca
Heh. I don’t know if anyone still checks this, but I go to a school near this one. This is San Rafael High in Marin. Its an interesting school. That’s the soccer field where we regularly beat them down. And we refer to them as the puppies, not the dawgs.
And yes, they are that dumb.
That would be a high school in nothern california, i saw that sign and i was like well thats intresting haha
San Rafel Hisghschool, not the brightest haha
Oh dear god. That was my high school. I always hated how they spelled that; I’m glad to be out of there.
OMFG TRIFORCE?
YES! this one is a legitimate fail. lol
