YES !
And now let’s see what the fail is about.
All together now…DUNK!
…IN’ DONUTS!
… in hot coffee!
…in two soggy holes!
Homecoming queen with two drowned, soggy holes…sounds about right!!
Indeed. One down south and one where her soul should have been.
ooo… dark soggy comment!
OOOooooo dark soggy chocolate cake
THE CAKE IS A LIE
no the cake is a truth
FALSE.
The cake is a question! 8D
maybe the homecoming queen was a witch?
liquefied velociraptor?
Who cares about the queen? all i want is cake *sob*
This is so much win it hurts.
Drowning them now…stupid kids, way too much beer.
The missing Location field should read “Bikini Bottom”.
Sure you don’t want to hold it at “R’lyeh, Atlantic Ocean” instead?
Hilarious, but what is this? George Orwell’s blog?
No, his Big Brother wrote it in 1984. He was living on an Animal Farm.
I’m for it!
I just accidentally the homecoming queen, what should I do?
Missing word: “broke” ?
Use an action verb
Grilled?
Nah, it’s highschool. “Banged.”
Farted on.
FUBAR?
SNAFU.
FUBAB!
TARFU
Tofu?
Soybean
as opposed to an inaction verb?
Nope. All the inaction verbs are missing in action.
Ignored?
No, a linking verb.
Humping?
a humping verb?
Sorry I used the wrong conjugation. Should have been humped.
the WHOLE queen???
That’s more than half!
More than 0%?!
That’s less than half.
…Is the concept of ‘humour’ known to you, Mookie?
No, he’s called Mookie.
phewww… so glad no one said “the WHORE queen?”
Ooops!
No no…the whore queen’s children!
Found in dumpster on prom night.
Dude, I’m right there with you. I got the reference.
Technically, no.
All-day affair? Must be a tough cookie to take that long to drown…
It usually isn’t, but Aquaman keeps getting in the way.
Aquaman’s pretty much useless.
Aquaman for President!
For longer life queens should not go home.
Look out, I hear she’s got a gun.
and is running for governor of Alaska
IS governor of Alaska…
… for now.
Nah, she takes down caribou with her bare hands, I’m sure.
Bear hands?
No she bites the heads off bears.
Moose-flavoured gummy bears?
A moose bit her sister once.
Only once? Didn’t like the taste I suppose.
She fired that moose!
She tried to force the head of the parks department to fire the moose.
… gave up and fired the head of parks into the moose.
Two birds, one rock, job done. Smug look.
And a wink.
Wink! Wink! Goodness I misread that first time.
Well I’m sure Ms Palin loves a wank as much as the rest of us!
… and when better than just after firing the park ranger into a moose that bit her sister!
FOR THE LAST TIME.. IT WAS SELF-DEFENSE!!
A likely story. You are obviously a Communist moose.
… with a pair of legs sticking out of your bum.
I think Dr. Hugh has a fetish.
My secret is out. I often dream of shoving officious tin gods up the rear end of ungulates as far as I can, and you say this is not normal? *books councelling session*
I am really disturbed by the “officious tin Gods” part.
English colloquialism. A person with a tiny amount of responsibility who thinks he runs the corporation. i.e. The car park attendant at a village fair models his behaviour on Pol Pot.
Then she put on her American flag bikini, grabbed a .20 caliber, and shot it.
Before letting her lipstick pitbulls maim it.
And all this after McCain told her not to. Yeah, she’s goin’ rogue.
(Palin wont make sense below this level)
Palin has never made sense.
By gum, you’re right!
(Obama won’t make sense below this level…or above it, for that matter. Or on it.)
Isn’t it funny how jokes about Republicans are actually funny whereas jokes about Democrats… aren’t?
I’m just bringing in equal time. Whether I’m funny or not, I don’t care. I don’te care, I tell you! Aah!
* whips out sword, cuts down effigy of Palin in some guy’s front yard *
^– don’t…spelling FAIL.
Damn commie socialist liberals, always ruining our jokes and spreading our wealth…
gladiator is a fascist, conservative pig
^– Says the stock market.
I thought she only put lipstick on the pigs.
Or was it vice versa?
I bit some moose jerky once.
You bit Moose’s jerky, no wonder he broke up.
“I did it for Johnny”
Can someone explain what a homecoming queen actually is? I’ve often wondered.
It’s when your son comes home from college for the summer and tells you he’s gay.
*ROFLsnort*
OK MOOKIE!
See y’all he does has a since of humor?
Nice one.
Oooh! Same question in two places, and a homophone.
But surely not a homophobe. That wouldn’t be P.C.
I don’t know, you may not have this in Britain. Homecoming is basically a popularity contest. Every year, all the most self-centered, egotistical jerk-offs and divas sign themselves up to be nominated for the homecoming court. All of their minions then vote for their master. The two people from each of the four grades who got the most votes, one boy and one girl (seniors got six people actually) get voted into homecoming court. Then, out of those people, the boy and girl with the most votes becomes homecoming king and queen, respectively. Their egotistic, b*tchy nature is then officially vindicated by the school staff. A cheap plastic crown is placed on the king’s head, and the queen gets a boquet of cheap plastic roses. A football is then heald in their honor, solidifying their position as the most narcissistic jag-offs on the planet.
… I hope this has helped.
A football game, rather. They may or may not get a football as well, but I don’t care.
So… is it the same thing as a prom queen (which we sort of have here), only it’s somehow related to football?
I guess. You may not have noticed. I’m kind of not real friendly towards the queen and king at my highschool.
We should have deduced that with a name like ‘Shadow’ and the ability to construct a sentence rules out ‘narcissistic airhead’. Thanks for the explanation BTW. the only thing you didn’t explain is if there is a point.
You can’t explain what isn’t there.
ROFL
Has anyone from the jerking authority been here? There’s been way too much unauthorized jerking going on.
They’re too busy jerking.
They can’t shut the door on the van.
Down with the monarchy!
…up with anarchy?
…sideways with the hierarchy?
Diagonally with the oligarchy?
Divergently with the patriarchy!
… round and round the hegemony?
zig-zagging with the polyarchy?
….Cheyenne chased congress.
Anarchy in the Cellophane!
Not necessarily, Loz and Shadow. My high school didn’t have football, but we did have Homecoming.
… but did you drown the bugger afterwards?
No. The Homecoming Queen and her friends just sang karaoke…and the DJs loaded the wrong vocal track.
No. The Homecoming Queen and her friends just sang karaoke…and the DJs loaded the wrong vocal track.
Sweet. Public humiliation for the precocious. That is almost as much fun as drowning one.
What was better was the bunch of boys who not only couldn’t sing, but started to breakdance during the chorus…and the disco lights.
Brilliant, that must have made going into school worthwhile. Do you have the video? Would seem to be idea material for failblog.
Sadly, no. While I did have my camera, I sadly lacked the forethought to either a) fully charge the battery or b) use what battery I had to capture it. In retrospect, I FAIL.
I thought that was only in the movies.
It looks like a failure in the time-space continuum, judging by those times.
12 AM to 11:59 PM? Arbitrary, maybe, but a space-time fail it is not.
Erm…12:00am is the first minute of the day, and 11:59pm is the last minute. Time-space continuum intact.
OK I failed to read it properly again. *hangs head*
I am intrigued by the ‘Senior’. Did he go to the picnic on his own?
yes, which is why he was dismissed
Frowning ?
Reply failing?
Fail to reply?
Reply to fail?
To reply, fail.
To fail, reply.
What?…… crap!
Um… I think you failed.
In what sense?
“To fail, reply.”
Then B2F replied. I believe that constitutes a fail.
thus the “crap!” at the end of my post.
*wanders through thread and walks through Blue2th’s post*
…EWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!
Dammit, B2th! Now I have to change my shoes.
Respondere, aegrota; aegrotare, responde.
^– Latin FAIL. I used the wrong verb.
Respondere, defice; deficere, responde.
Are you serious?
in case you are serious (or not an American)… “crowning”.
Is anyone else starting to hear Denny Green echo in their heads?
“If you wanna crown ‘em, then crown their ass! They are who we thought they were!”
You, sir, and also your unlucky predecessor Shadow fail at recognizing humor. I just PLAYED dumb in order to obtain some sort of comical effect. It is a known technique.
a truly canonical comical effect
If, by canonical, you mean we should fire czuhc out of a canon, then yes, by all means!!!
Long live Max Wall
Long live Joshua Tree
It is also a known FAIL when done poorly.
That will be timing. Difficult to execute whilst typing.
Why so serious?
Ah, execution always draw a crowd.
I would have attended our Homecoming Queen’s drowning…
Do you know if this sort of institutional drowning happens often? Are tickets available? Can you nominate Queens?
Oh, amen to that. The only homecoming queen I remember (without looking at my yearbook that is) is the queen from my freshmen year. You have to wonder why it’s always the b*tchy divas who are the most popular.
*polite cough*
*thinks Dragon was once a homecoming queen*
*waits eagerly for the ensuing PHOOOOOM*
I say that in the nicest possible way, m’dear
Can you enlighten an Australian on what exactly a home coming queen is?
It could be an old bloke in a large felt hat, velvet smoking jacket and cravat who has just returned from the Jazz Club. Slight tendency to mince and smoke joints.
She’s a girl in high school nominated by her peers to run for homecoming queen, it’s a football game comine home after playing away games. Som there’s a court, a homecoming court, with underclassmen as well as the seniors, only the seniors can win, 4 couples from each grade are chosen.
comine=coming
I really need to proof before I post,.. silly fingers.
Maybe if you ask Santa really nice he’ll bring you some new fingers for Hallowe’en
LOL
possibly the most confusing explanation on failblog ever. thanks… I guess.
They then reign over the Homecoming Dance, which of course is the most important thing.
To make sure everyone is dancing correctly? Can they have the double left-footers beheaded? What kind of power do they wield?
The power to have peaked in thier late teens, and to spend the rest of the lives looking back at those glory days?
So your explanation is that a homecoming queen is someone who runs for homecoming queen? Thanks for clearing that up.
Proper explanation: The winner of a high school popularity contest.
Oh yes, I just asked the same question up there somewhere ^
I dare not say, as it might activate the Innuendo Machine.
Typically, the meanest girl in the class.
That’s cool!
All power to big girls with balls!
Have the Olympics started again?
ROFL
Wait, your female friend had male genitalias?
Were these male genitalia inside her or accessories?
I hope it’s in Pig’s Blood… it’s so much more ‘cinematic’ that way….
How about the lonely senior … not going to be a fun picnic with just one.
I would have to see a pic to judge if it’s a fail.
Maybe a vote fail that gets corrected
Click “You voted for ugly queen”
“No i want to vote for the hot chick”
Click “Two vote for ugly” …..
Hmmm s FAIL
You don’t have football in Ireland, do you Loz?
The Irish play real football! (Also claimed by the Aussies I believe)
The difference is?
I don’t know much about either though, normal football is more popular.
I’ve never seen Gaelic Football. I’ve only seen a little bit of Aussie Rules, and it looked a lot like Rugby to me. I’ve see quite a bit of football (aka soccer) though.
Yeah, they’re similar to rugby in that you can hold the ball.
The Aussies found ordinary Rugby Football lacked violence… One game I heard of had to be abandoned because after the pre-match fight the officials could not find enough players who could stand up!
Like I said, I’ve only seen a little of it. Like a few minutes of highlights while changing channels. So I’m going by an impression I got of the sport a few years ago. I freely admit my ignorance on the subject.
I have never seen anything on UK TV. I was interested after listening to an Aussie decription.
Fox Soccer Channel in the US started out as Fox Sports World, and originally had coverage of rugby, Aussie Rules, and F1 racing in addition to football/soccer coverage.
Do you not have F1 racing in the US?
I think there’s an F1 grand prix that’s run in Detroit. But no, there isn’t much coverage of F1 racing over here. Other than a little Indy Car coverage (usually the Indianapolis 500), NASCAR is pretty much the only auto racing that our media covers.
The Speed Channel carries nearly all of the F1 races.
Forgot about the Speed Channel.
Speed Channel = Corporate drug dealer?
I think the BBC sometimes broadcast the Aussie-Gaelic friendly matches.
Thanks I’ll keep a look out.
You’d better go and camp before the tele.
Camp! Camp! Who are you calling camp! *hand on hip, limp wrist, flicking dust off the soft furnishings*
Before the tele what? Use an action verb!
He accidenty an action verb!
Accidenty? Is that when dentists pull out the wrong tooth?
Beats my joke!
“You’d better go and camp before the telecoms.”
Better, Loz ?
Ooh, yes, I like that punuendo!
I’ll punt your “endo” in a minute!
Punt? But we’re nowhere near Cambridge!
Phhhh…. Cambridge, try Brighton!
I’d love to visit Brighton actually. The gay capital of the UK!
I didn’t know Brighton was full of silly punts.
Aussie Rules is a cross between both Gaelic Football and AFL. Looks a bit like rugby but more like a 36 man brawl.
Best described as UFC with a ball and 36 players
Is that a joke? Football is the universal sport.
Unless you’re referring to American Football, in which case, no.
Well, yeah, American Football is all I know.
Well… why on earth would we have American Football when we aren’t American?
Do you call yours football? What’s rugby?
Rugby is war with referees.
Nah, more like a riot with referees. Wars are generally organized.
2 r’s, 4 e’s, one f’n referee!
Rugby is terrifying, my older brother plays and has had his ear torn and his jaw broken while playing. They’re just too manly/foolish to wear all that protective gear that the American Footballers do!
Ever wonder why American Football is called football even though the foot is hardly used to play the ball? It’s because the sport is an offshoot of rugby, which itself an offshoot of football/soccer.
We mainly play soccer, which we call football. Because you use your feet.
Rugby is a different sport entirely. Go read a book or something.
Because of course we Americans are genetically stupid, and are totally unaware that the world and it’s many varied cultures stretch beyond the land contained between sea and shining sea.
American Football: A sport in which feet rarely make contact with the ball, the players wear armour so as not to make direct contact with each other (which might result in a lawsuit).
(or a broken nail)
LOL !
(btw, go and read my apologies at the Beer Night post)
American Football? I’m guessing not so much.
Indeed.
Non-negative event duration FAIL!
Who knew the Spanish Inquisition was still holding witch trials…
Nobody expects it
That’s a SharePoint form.
I thought the use of Sharepoint was the fail when I first saw this
Following the drowning of the homecoming queen, we’ll be cutting the throat of the homecoming king and then stuffing the entire football team into a giant, anthropomorphic wicker sculpture and setting it on fire…. aaahhhhh, good times at Druid High.
You say fail.
I say epic win.
I think I need Dragonwriter to explain that this is funny.
I guess to me it just seems like a stupid typo that should never have made it to failblog.
Oh well.
*puts on professor hat*
Humo(u)r 101 is now in session!
This is funny not just because it is a typo, but because the visual image it creates in our brains is funny. It wouldn’t be nearly as funny, for example, if the type said, “Srowning of the homecoming queen” or “krowning of the homecoming queen”. (Though “Browning of the homecoming queen” gave me a giggle.)
The image of an ostensibly beautiful girl, all dressed up in her most beautiful outfit with a tiara and roses and comfortable in the knowledge that she is popular and loved and admired, being DROWNED is HIGH-larious! Especially since it is universally acknowledged (sorry…been reading Jane Austen) that Homecoming Queens are fairly well despised by all marginalized groups and non-jock-and-cheerleader-related demographics in high school.
There will be a quiz next week.
“Got it bad,
Got it bad,
got it bad, I’m hot for teacher…”
*snork*
I saw him in concert once…a looooooong time ago, now.
Are you prejudiced against reading your namesake’s title by the same author?
Jane Austin wrote about Dragons? Wow you learn something new each day.
Not at all! It’s an absolutely lovely book. Though, since you are a man of sense, I’m sure you are sensible of that already.
If my homecoming had been like that, I would have gone.
That would be more interesting, but not any more positive than the football games at my high school.
FIRST
Wow, you certainly live up to your moniker.
What are you talking about fail? I call that a f*cking win!
In the UK, Homecoming Queens dial 999. Also, if she floats, she’s made of wood.
Looks like they forgot to invite Carrie again….
The act of drowning the homecoming queen was self-defense: she had a gun.
This has so much win, that it alone warrants the creation of a Win Blog
There’s been many times when I’ve wanted to drown the Homecoming Queen.
anyone realize that it ends two minutes before it even starts?
She is a witch!!!
Nice to see high schools embracing the good old fashioned values of human sacrifice again! Another win for the moral majority!
Freudian Slip win!

第二百六十五！
You just made my day. Drown the homecoming queen. Pah ha ha!
lol total carrie moment.
only with water.
Epic
Maybe that’s not wrong. Maybe they sacrifice the homecoming queen to appease the football gods, ever think of that?
yes.
First this is my school, dead serious, my URL is the website for it. The Lenzner field thing and the colors of the site will prove it!
Second, the opposing team is spelt wrong, should be Leechburg,
double FAIL!
That’s a win because THAT is a tradition that myself and about a thousand others at my school could get into. If we had done that, maybe I would have gone to the crowning during half time of the game instead of going to get pizza while the line was at it’s shortest.
What’s a homecoming queen?
Sorry, but i’m from Beetlejuice 6 and I am trying to learn about earth for the Guide.
Oh, yeah, and Pan Galactic Gargle Blasters are much more fun than drowning.
Or is that…Beatle Juice?
I go to this high school oh it was so fun to be there for the “Drowning”
i go to this high school i was there for the “drowning”
This is no fail – THIS IS A WIN!
And on my BIRTHDAY…
don’t know if i’m the only one but does this fail also have that it starts on the same day at 12:00 am and ends ad 11:59 pm so is is a 24 hour homecomming? seems like anothe fail in there to me
Haha crack up with this stuff
