No socks for you.
All your socks are belong to us.
you cannot survive make your footwear.
Move ‘SOCK’ for great justice.
socks or GTFO
Good, the fly’s out?
Grab The Fourth Officer?
Great, The Fitting Opera?
Gnaw The Fleeing Oreo?
Got to find Oprah?
Get the f.uck out.
(Sorry, I had to).
Tourettes?
Advanced pedantry. Unfortunately, there is no cure.
*winks at Loz*
Thanks Loz!
I wasn’t being a pedant, I was just telling the person who referred to Oprah to get the f.uck out. Heehee
I am replying here to see what happens
I accidentally all the socks.
Did you mean: the Chordettes?
GTFO NAO
Give me socks or give me… Nothing?
Go sock or go home!
Somebody set up us the socks.
Somebody set us up the sock!!!
i accidentally the sign for socks. what should i do?
The whole thing?
I’m about to give you all my money
and all I’m asking in return honey
is to give me my sockits when you get home
sock it to me sock it to me sock it to me sock it to me; a little respect!
I wonder if they sell Paul socks.
These are in the women section, the picture is all about men’s socks (not on sale)
Oh, my mistake. Pauline, perhaps?
Too late.
Sorry about your socks.
You can pay 14.99 for 2 Pauline socks and 4 Charlene Socks, but the socks are not included in the price. You can keep the label in case you need a refunding.
Another great deal on Charlene socks: 0 for $1.49
Buy one, pay double and get the second one free!
Is that more than half?
It is a 0% discount! (less than half)
lol. If they’re not in the promo, then they’re not really selling them are they? I guess you have to be a Sister and then make a special request.
A Sister? Like Sister Paul?
She made a habit of wearing socks with her name on them.
But at least she had a cute little wimple in her cheek when she smiled.
good job. Yes. ‘Twas the joke.
Loz, do you wear metric socks?
Yes, why?
Do they fit on your feet?
Nah, yards too big.
My socks are 2.45 fortnights per furlong, and they fit just fine, theng-kew.
*head explodes* measurement of time per length ….
What’s wrong with that? If we can have miles per hour (sorry Loz), then why not hours per mile?
Yes, but do socks grow over time?
Yes, if some dipsh*t’s gone and broken the space-time continuum again.
*guilty look*
Politely does not admonish a certain dragon for utilizing archaic measureents in unorthodox ways, resulting in yet another break down.
Don’t be sorry Shadow, we use mph here too! We can’t seem to make our minds up.
I don’t see why you don’t use km/h if you’re already using the metric system. Plus it makes it sound like you’re going faster. Come to think of it, that’s a good reason we should use the metric system in the US. Doing 80 sounds a lot cooler than doing 55.
I guess it’s just too big a thing to change. When the metric system came into use we changed most other things but kept mph. I’m sure we’ll get around to it some day.
The strange thing here in Northern Ireland is that we use mph like the rest of the UK, but when you drive south of the border into the Republic of Ireland they use km/h.
It is more fun, I love driving on the autoroutes in France and doing 120kph!
according to http://stuffididlastnight.com
they do
This promo sOcks
They need to go on the Socks Offenders Register…
…together with the scary monkey sock puppets.
Regardless of the price you’ll pay, if you buy your socks there you’ll be hosed.
Yes your wallet will take quite a hit.
Hosed if you get them, hosed if you don’t, eh?
Blame it on the high cost of stocking.
They had a run on nylons.
It drove the price thigh high.
We’ll have to tighten our garters.
Fortunately, I was able to snag the last pair.
Leaving the rest of us hung out to dry.
Darn! Now what will we do?
Wait for a stocking stuffer?
I am sew not touching that.
All these puns! I’m in stitches!
We all have crewel senses of humor.
Seams weave come to the end.
Bobby, socks are not on sale!
Oh no! What will I wear to the hop?
I think you’re on your last leg.
C’mon! Just a few more feet left!
Hands down, that’s the winner.
She was well armed.
It gave her a leg up.
So she was given a hand!
She was knuckle deep in it.
You just want her digits.
She is the bee’s knees afterall.
She’s a hip chick, too.
elbowed her way ahead.
She keeps her chin up.
She keeps her chin up
She’s a head up on the competition.
Keeps her chin up.
Stupid IE.
That’s gonna cost you and arm and a leg.
I’ll just have to keep a stiff upper lip.
Right on the nose!
Don’t worry, pixie, you’ll finger it out eventually.
Just keep your head in the game and you’ll be fine.
I’ve got my eye on the ball.
You need to keep abreast of the situation.
Or I’ll be up to my neck in trouble.
You need to get to the nuts and bolts of it.
He kneeds to do SOMETHING, that’s for sure.
Except that he’s a she.
Nice to meet you, darling pixie. Would you like sex?
Wow! Quite a welcome!
Sorry, was that too forward?
The failblog atmosphere today is full of sexual tension, it’s got me all excited…
That’s our Loz!
*hugs Loz*
A hug might not be the best idea… I’m as randy as a 15 year old boy!
sowwy…
Ah, how bad can it be…
*hugs*
*pinches dragon’s bum*
Not too forward. Just forward enough.
YEEP!!
*gives Loz a stern look*
Dammit…now I’m wishing the Admiral were here…
Wha… How did I get here??
Holy cats, it WORKED!!!
*cowers*
That’s one hell of a stern look you’ve got!
I’m sure the admiral will be along shortly, now that you’ve mentioned his name.
I guess I’ll just retreat to my corner and *mastu…
What’d I tell ya!
Hee…he just can’t resist my magnetism!
*hugs my most admirable Admiral*
*hugs*
That was some teleportation!
*looks down*
It seems my socks were left behind.
Well, it’s not every woman who can say she literally knocks your socks off!
Stupid cold a few weeks back threw off my sleep patterns.
*imagines all the sexy fun he could have had this morning if he’d been awake*
You snooze, you lose.
I’ll bet the salesperson was puttee in your hands.
Dang refresh button

Chocolate button?

Unfortunately, he had feet of clay.
And Terra cotta him.
But they are a perfect fit for his earth shoes.
Oh, for peat’s sake…
We’ve ground out many a pun and I had some fun, but now I must earn my salt. TTFN
Someone loam him a slip.
You are quite the sod pixie.
Thank you. I do like to muddy the water.
Don’t be silty.
I’ll give it a wacke.
You moss be very popular around here.
This is sphagnum-ingly boring.
Actually, I’m a bit of a shrinking violet.

There’s an echo in here.
There’s an echo in here.
Narcissus is looking for you.
He’s in the woods, taking a pe(ony).
Shhh… Mums the word.
Don’t worry he’s vine and won’t be long.
But daisy him getting into trouble all the time…of course they’d be worried.
There’s an echo in here I think…
There’s an echo in here.
2rd!
so close to first!!
2rd? good stuff. let’s go back to 1st grade shall we?
yes, shame on you! It should be “2th”!
(pfft… some people…)
(responding prematurely for the reply He knows is coming)
Yes? Did you call me?
-2th
So close, yet so far…
Far from fail? that’s a good thing. Firsts are pretty much pure fail.
On what criteria are you basing this presumption?
the fact that everyone on this blog seems to dislike firsts, and insults them with increasing regularity
Good enough. The motion has been passed that saying just ‘FIRST’ is a failure. Saying the word with a witty comment/another language/in a different way is acceptable.
Prime idea!
Saying what word is a fail? Can you tell me again the fail word?
Saying the word that means to be number one is a fail, ie the word with the letters f, i, r, s and t in that order.
It would have to humorously (x=0, y=0, z=0)al for it not to be fail.
Of course, this (8×3/y = 9-7.425) also.
0100011001101001011100100111001101110100
Now THIS is what I want to see instead of the dreaded word signifying being number one. Well done Ryannon!
*claps and cheers*
*blushes* Aww shucks, ’twas 01101110011011110111010001101000011010010110111001100111 really.
Still, to talk in binary is quite something!
Would you prefer I put a hex on you?
…What kind of a hex?
*he said curiously*
I give it a C++
Don’t SAS me!
Sorry. Haven’t had my morning JAVA.
Some real PERLs of wisdom in here.
They are totally scripted. Look for the sql coming soon to a theater near you.
*throws a SNOBOL at Ryannon*
Oh this is AWKward.
Oh, let’s make up and go ride the CAML at the zoo!
I gnu you would try to FOIL my plans.
Liar. You didn’t have a CLU.
Just keep your FOCUS and you’ll be fine.
I C it will be hard to get a PYTHON reference in here.
Oh hell…EIFFEL, and now I can’t get up.
I’ll have to pas, Cal needs some help.
You people are nucking futs!

*masturbates into sock*
I gues that makes me fetish fodder. The things you learn on failblog
*guess
Somebody keeps stealing my esses.
Someone playing grab-ess with you?
Is that harr-ess-ment?
An esspecially hineyous person, it seems.
Overload!! Overload!!!
Danger Will Robinson!!!
Butt maybe he or she has Essberger’s syndrome.
That could be a valid essessment.
There was an essessination attempt butt it was nipped in the bud.
I wonder if they sell insulated socks?
For foot fetishes!
No, for well-grounded people.
And for those shoeless drunken nights peeing at the high voltage outdoor urinal.
And those shoeless drunks who forget their shoes on the couch.
And those Catholic nuns named Paul who like to keep up on current events.
Attention
Customers
Secks are not included
in this promo
Sects not included? The Shaivists will be so disappointed.
Sex is included in my promo. At weekly rapes.
BYOC?
Bring Your Own Chloroform?
Complimentary duct tape provide to weekly rapers.
The lunch menu includes doucheburgers. Buy one at double price and get the next one free!
And the 60 year old Whoppers are -20% off. The viagra Ice cream has a 0 for 1.49 deal.
Is it held at the hotel?
Make sure you have a reservation. Wouldn’t want to be prostituted. Or would you?
Don’t fall of the balcony while taking advantage of the great rapes- It’s not on ground level.
I brought my reliable sewing kit, just in case.
Darn, I brought mine too.
Could you darn this sock for me then?
first
Not only is that promo fail, thats price fail as well! I sure wouldnt spend 15$ on 3 pairs of socks!
I’m inclined to agree with Ashley here. Let’s sue the shop!
Seek redress for apparel related grievances?
You are just skirting the issue.
The issue of the suit against the shop?
Just be brief about it.
Lets not hem and haw.
*pants*
Let’s not be hasty things aren’t what they seam.
You are tailor made for this thread.
Don’t needle him! Oh…you’re being serious. Okay!
You are sew going to regret that.
You are sew going to regret that.
I think the tension is a little high, let me mend things.
I hope somebody read the textile of the suit to make sure those tricky lawyers aren’t trying to pull the wool over our eyes.
But these aren’t just any socks. These are invisible socks!

Why
am I saying
this
out loud?
Shall I compare thee to a sock today?
Thou art more fuzzy and more warming;
Rough hands do shake the hanging sock display
And the promo’s lease is all too short performing.
O promo, promo! wherefore art thou promo?
Deny thy sock and refuse thy sale
It probably doesn’t meter to you, I envy you with your even numbered feet. You don’t have much trouble buying socks!
You’re prosody right, dearest Admiral, but if you are footless and fancy-free, you could always wear both socks on one foot!
Admiral.. I’m going to guess you never actually owned a pair of socks.. did you? If you did, you’d know those sneaky bastards tend to disappear one at a time. There is no person in the world who actually owns an EVEN number of socks.
A hall, a hall, give room! And foot it, girls!
More fail, you knaves, and turn the comments up.
Thou with license of free foot hast caught me!
(And, as to your previous comment, I’d be happy to quench your fire, if the room is grown too hot.)
LOLspeak to me
3 pairs of sockless men for $14.99 is still a pretty good bargain.

why didn’t they just take off the promo sign?
This is a bigger problem than the sensor fail. The problem is definitely harder, but I’m certain that the answer has got to be two foxes and Achilles Last Stand with the possibility of Kashmir and/or Since I’ve Been Loving You playing in the backround afterwords. These failblog puzzles are challenging. Nice try, failblog, but your puzzles aren’t challenging enough.
Darn. i gotta pay full price.
I accidentally the marketing campaign, is this bad?
i really hate ones like this, someone has printed that off there computer and stuck it next to the offer, its a fail fail.
im more interested in your conversation than the pic
MEGALOLLZZZZZZZ
The socks are just the beginning. Next the Obama administration will be taking away our shoelaces.
Its these kinds of promotions that make my
day when shopping. Who is the retailer,
so I can bring business?
thanks from tony
