FAIL. 360 degrees is a complete circle, so regardless of which direction the rotation was made, the object would still return to its original position.
They do, but they don’t want to be ridiculed in class for asking such a stupid question. Better to be ridiculed by the entirety of the Internet instead where they may in fact draw more kindred spirits and form an entire virtual community of intellectual idiots.
Well, it’s absolutely true. I NEVER asked questions in school because I knew everyone would make fun of me. Our whole society seems to be taught to attack anyone who doesn’t know what YOU know, as if we are all supposed to be born with all knowledge.
Of course, a donut (torus) IS 360deg (it can actually be created by rotating a circle through 360deg), it just has a hole in the middle which doesn’t affect it’s angle measure. Basic geometry fail.
I actually thought of the fact that a donut is 360 degrees, but still went ahead and posted that comment because the idea of a donut chart cracked me up. I’m easily amused.
Ok, I feel I need to tell you about this, because it has helped me in a HUGE way.
Most computers have this thing called spell checker. It can even be set so that it can let you know if you are in error AS YOU GO. It shows up as a wavy red line under the word that is misspelled. I too, am a terrible speller. This option has been a great boon.
True, but when you say something stupid IRL, it isn’t permanently publicly available. Stupid Internet comments can haunt you for the rest of your life.
And something tells me “Ryan” has his last name as part of his email address (which is hidden on Y!A). So in 20 years when he’s trying to get a professional career, this comment could very well resurface to bite him in the ass.
Kids, use an alias of some kind when you go on the Internet! Your future job security could depend on it!
Aaaahhh… And the answer is so simple… You just need need to draw a bigger graph, for example one with 720 degrees.. Or if you dont want to redraw it, simply put this 360 degree-graph into a microwave, it will heat it up to a bigger graph.
I’m honestly surprised this idiot didn’t try making a pie chart in Word or Excel, which automatically make all the “slices” at the correct angle based on the data. Then again, that would have required the capacity for thought, which he appears to be lacking.
Clearly, fewl, making the chart in Excel would have tainted it with the evil of Microsoft Corporation, who would steal his pie for their own use. Then it would fit in a circle, but no longer be nearly as tasty. Tsk, tsk. Someone’s lacking capacity for thought.
i just noticed: it was posted “2 minutes ago”, he has to hand it in “tomorrow” but there are “three days” left to answer his question. is that him making another stupid choice (regarding time frame this time), or does the website do that automatically??
my bets on him being stoopid
Really? This is obviously just someone trying to get on Failblog or trying to get people worked up. If I were a betting man, I’d bet the person that the person that wrote this Yahoo! Answers entry also submitted it to Failblog. I’ve seen entries like this before, and it doesn’t carry the same effect when the fail is intentional. Please stop.
Do you think he means he’s trying to represent a result that was more than %100? You can still do that with the pie chart, but if he was only told how to figure out the degrees from a percentage you can see how a simple person vould get confused.
It makes me sad to find that not a single person gave him an answer like we came up with here on the comments. Every single person that answered this guy on Y! Answers gave him a serious answer. *cries*
Even more sad, not a single person told him what a moron he was (or does yahoo filter those responses so nobody gets their feelings hurt?)
this has GOT to be a failblog member’s post on yahoo answers. no way with our addiction to THIS site, does anyone have the time to catch a question two minutes after it was posted.
Well, some of us have a life outside this site, I mean like in other sites of course, maybe the guy who found it was just lucky enough to find it on recently posted quiestions. I feel kinda bad for Ryan anyway, I wish he finds a way to fit all his info on the pie graph.
I didn’t go to say something… not initially anyway. I just wanted to see if it was really that new (within the last few days… since original clip says 2 minutes). When I saw that all that were on there were serious, helpful type answers… I really wished I could post something nice, one of you guys’ (and gals) wonderful “helpful” suggestions.

If you can mk a quantum circle can you make an “Avatar” Quiltpatternsquare chart? Too complex? Changes everytime you go on a comment thread? Like that problem where if you’re
observing molecules you have to freeze them or the mere act of observing them bounces them around into new configurations? Its all part of some irreducible
complexitude.
it took me like 20 minutes to read this and i think it’s so funny that it is more than a year later and it still says that it was posted 2 minutes ago.

“bo”? is that all, not even a “FIRST” or something intelligible, just “bo”?
oh and BOO if ur not scared of my blazing wit and all powerful intelligence already
ehhh I think it’s supposed to be a facial expression like :O or XD
Wow, you ppl ruin failblog with you FIRST!
Your gaay
My gay what?
its simple, just use a bigger circle
Nah, that’ll never work. He needs to extend pi by atleast 10.
Spiral pie chart? That’ll work.
Uhh, All circles lead up to 360 degrees, idiot. Have you taken Geometry?
obviously you failed sarcasm 101
and maybe uhh… what’s it called when you understand a joke… Ah yes. maybe you failed “getting it” 101.
thats actually a very stupid thing to say. no matter how big the circle is, it adds up to 360 degrees. And he could always use a bar chart.
Selecta!
Please help me. I’m a tad retarded and no one can treat the terrible desease
Please help me. I need to type a backwards b and hand it in by tomorrow.
Just type a regular p and put your name upside down on the bottom of the paper.
no, type backwards q and turn upside down.
You just need to type d and turn it 360 degrees!
Also, you can type q and turn it 540 degrees.
I always type a d and turn it 360 degrees in the other direction
Anyone notce theres 3 days left to answer?
JUST noticed that! Man, I feel sorry for this guy XD
HAHAHA! Exactly. Multiple Fails! “Due by tomorrow FAIL!”

FAIL. 360 degrees is a complete circle, so regardless of which direction the rotation was made, the object would still return to its original position.
But that would burn it!
FAIL. A 360 degree turn would make a complete circle, thus returning it to its original position.
you idiot. thats the point. a backwards b is a d in case you hadnt noticed
Is “a tad” more than a smidge?
yes
But less than a bit?
yes. by 40 degrees.
What does that make the 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon?
We have to fit that into the chart too?
No. Kevin Bacon IS the chart.
no. you’re forgetting, kevin bacon is clearly Hollow Man…he doesn’t show up on anything

I guess you could make a helical graph.
No, they’re 300 degrees on account of comming from that altered dimension.
WTF don’t some people go to school?
They do, but they don’t want to be ridiculed in class for asking such a stupid question. Better to be ridiculed by the entirety of the Internet instead where they may in fact draw more kindred spirits and form an entire virtual community of intellectual idiots.
Like MySpace.
thank you for sharing that
Well, it’s absolutely true. I NEVER asked questions in school because I knew everyone would make fun of me. Our whole society seems to be taught to attack anyone who doesn’t know what YOU know, as if we are all supposed to be born with all knowledge.
You mean you weren’t???? Now I’m worried about you…
I knew everything when I was born. Unfortunately I forgot most of it by the time I started school.

I’d say this is more of a primary school fail…oh and FIRST!
I’d say this is more of a stupidity FAIL… oh and NOT FIRST!!
Obviously he needs a cake graph.
Easy. Make a layer cake. This is like two pies on top of each other, thus giving you 720 degrees (or more if you use more layers).
Cream filling is optional
Orgy cream
Brilliant! lol
And if you need less that 360 degrees, make a donut chart with a hole in the middle.
or just eat some of the pie
Just, please, whatever you do, don’t poke it.
Of course, a donut (torus) IS 360deg (it can actually be created by rotating a circle through 360deg), it just has a hole in the middle which doesn’t affect it’s angle measure. Basic geometry fail.
Gee Mr. Wizard, thanks for enlightening us!
Ha! I loved that show.
It’s not Fluffy’s fault she can’t do geometry – her eyes are on either side of her head, making it difficult for her to see in 3 dimensions.
She sees in 2D? Wow!
It’s the unfortunate side effect of monocular vision, I’m afraid. But she’s so brave, she never complains…
I actually thought of the fact that a donut is 360 degrees, but still went ahead and posted that comment because the idea of a donut chart cracked me up. I’m easily amused.
I hate when people kill a good joke by being literal. Fluffy joke win, Beer comment fail. Sigh.
OK, right, just like how you can’t really stack a pie chart double hight to make a 720 degree chart………I thought the donut idea was brilliant
how about you make it spiral
like a cinnaman roll
Ok, I feel I need to tell you about this, because it has helped me in a HUGE way.
Most computers have this thing called spell checker. It can even be set so that it can let you know if you are in error AS YOU GO. It shows up as a wavy red line under the word that is misspelled. I too, am a terrible speller. This option has been a great boon.
Sarcasm fail.
Bah.
Make More Pie.
There’s always room for more pie.
Especially cherry pie … *drool*
I guess I’ll wait for Ryannon to make the inevitable hair pie comment. Oops, I guess I just made it.
You two never disappoint.
Easy. Make a layer cake. This is like two pies on top of each other, thus giving you 720 degrees (or more if you use more layers).

anyone still have that taser?

Nope, try again.
you weren’t even second, mate. cos i was. muhahahahaha *cough* ha

at least when you make an ass of yourself on the internet, people don’t know your name
or do they… bob?
Sorry, I’ve been eating some pie….
True, but when you say something stupid IRL, it isn’t permanently publicly available. Stupid Internet comments can haunt you for the rest of your life.
And something tells me “Ryan” has his last name as part of his email address (which is hidden on Y!A). So in 20 years when he’s trying to get a professional career, this comment could very well resurface to bite him in the ass.
Kids, use an alias of some kind when you go on the Internet! Your future job security could depend on it!
omg, I have some of my last name in my email adress, also in my nickname ^^^^ could I be at risk too??
I would like to think that Huggymcbear was your entire surname.
Frankly, I have a hard time taking seriously anyone who hasn’t mastered the art of appropriate capitalization.
I’m still thinking about using an alias or not being a total idiot…
*ponders*
Your warning ought to be
Kids, don’t be stupid morons when you go on the internet! Your future job security probably doesn’t depend on it!
Unless Cheers.com is the site you went to. Then everybody would know your name.
actually last!
maybe ryan is just 5……..lol but i have a feeling he’s a teen
College student…..definitely a college student…
And he needs an answer fast cause he has parties to go to!!!
“What do you do if your data goes beyond 360 degrees but you need to add more data?”
FOR STARTERS, YOU COULD MAKE A BIGGER PIE.
uhhh… what???
Well, that’s easy my fellow, just do a 3D pie graph, which would be a sphere, and then you have 360 degrees squared! that’s like lotsa degrees!
PS: Or maybe by “tommorow” he meant “to moron” ?
yeah, anyone who needs more than 360 degrees on their pie chart should be able to make a SQUARE sphere!!!
Dude I have the same problem! WHAT’S THE ANSWER???
Oh it’s peach pie.
He needs to make one of those profiterole towers.

Is he hard yet?
What did I miss?
Aaaahhh… And the answer is so simple… You just need need to draw a bigger graph, for example one with 720 degrees.. Or if you dont want to redraw it, simply put this 360 degree-graph into a microwave, it will heat it up to a bigger graph.
Only if your microwave can handle 720 degrees without melting down. I suggest furnace.
It’s actually possible to have more than 360 degrees, just use hyperbolic space.
Use grads and get 400 in a circle.
I’m honestly surprised this idiot didn’t try making a pie chart in Word or Excel, which automatically make all the “slices” at the correct angle based on the data. Then again, that would have required the capacity for thought, which he appears to be lacking.
Clearly, fewl, making the chart in Excel would have tainted it with the evil of Microsoft Corporation, who would steal his pie for their own use. Then it would fit in a circle, but no longer be nearly as tasty. Tsk, tsk. Someone’s lacking capacity for thought.
I think he is too damn lazy to use a computer to do it
Or that, or that.
i just noticed: it was posted “2 minutes ago”, he has to hand it in “tomorrow” but there are “three days” left to answer his question. is that him making another stupid choice (regarding time frame this time), or does the website do that automatically??
my bets on him being stoopid
it is the site
*sigh* can’t believe this hasn’t been done yet…

Don’t you hate it when Failblog doesn’t post your comments?
Try it with a helix.
Or a brain implantant.
Or some mushrooms. But feed them to your dog first to make sure they’re safe.
proud to say i got that one
Really? This is obviously just someone trying to get on Failblog or trying to get people worked up. If I were a betting man, I’d bet the person that the person that wrote this Yahoo! Answers entry also submitted it to Failblog. I’ve seen entries like this before, and it doesn’t carry the same effect when the fail is intentional. Please stop.
Huh. I just posted a comment saying the same thing. And did you see the “posted 2 minutes ago” thing?
The continuing failure of government education, as evidenced by this unknown Ryan fellow. Film at 11!
…or 8 CST
2 PDT here… Why would they have it at three different times?
So you can go to the fridge for a beer and still catch the whole film.
I’m confused… what time to the serbvers go up??
Ryan needs to create a wormhole where he can go to an Alternate Reality and access the Stoopid Hooman Continuum…GPA’s optional.
No, no, no, no, no… NO. I still remember what happened the last time we messed with any sort of continuum… nuh-uh, not happening again.
Wait… 360 degrees… is that more than half?
Ryan needs to shut his pie hole.
Come on Mookie, stop being so crusty.
She’s just filling in.
She sounds like she’s going to make mincemeat out of this Ryan kid.
It’s just the (a la) mode she’s in.
That Ryan really has egg custard on his face now.
O_O I didn’t know EGG had such varied taste(e-freeze)…
When trying to pour a gallon of water into a 3-quart saucpan, I’m assuming Ryan looks for a hole in the pan, too.
Just redefine PI = 4. Or 2.
even more unusual how the post was made only 2 minutes ago. Perhaps the fail was rigged…
LOL Shadow! And ROFLMAO on everyone’s comments! This has been the best laugh in ages! Poor Ryan…
I agree. I often have a good laugh here, untill I scroll down and am once again confronted with the Gay Chubby Dating.
At least you don’t get “Is your man gay?” ads. Just because Egg dresses in pink tutu’s does NOT make him gay.
Now I am concerned with your surfing habits if you are getting chubby dating ads. I just power point ads.
Yeah, where are these ads everyone is referencing? My ads are so mainstream.
Do you think he means he’s trying to represent a result that was more than %100? You can still do that with the pie chart, but if he was only told how to figure out the degrees from a percentage you can see how a simple person vould get confused.
Percentage sign goes AFTER the number.
Ask at graphjam. They should be able to help you.
I’m surprised there wasn’t a link to GraphJam posted after the fail. Cross-promotion FAIL!
If your pie go over 360 degrees then you should leave it in the freezer!
Notice how they have the “Report Abuse” button, but no “Report Stupidity” button.
I hear that they are working on one though…
It makes me sad to find that not a single person gave him an answer like we came up with here on the comments. Every single person that answered this guy on Y! Answers gave him a serious answer. *cries*
Even more sad, not a single person told him what a moron he was (or does yahoo filter those responses so nobody gets their feelings hurt?)
You should cut and paste the link to this page for him so he can be enlightened.
I would, but it’s listed under resolved questions
Even though the pic above says it was posted 2 minutes ago, it really was posted like 3 weeks ago.
Does this deserve a double fail? The question isn’t even a question.
I think it may be fake because otherwise the guy found it 2 minutes after it was uploaded.
How is Babby formed?
The answer is simple, use radians instead of degrees!
this has GOT to be a failblog member’s post on yahoo answers. no way with our addiction to THIS site, does anyone have the time to catch a question two minutes after it was posted.
Well, some of us have a life outside this site, I mean like in other sites of course, maybe the guy who found it was just lucky enough to find it on recently posted quiestions. I feel kinda bad for Ryan anyway, I wish he finds a way to fit all his info on the pie graph.
I dunno if this be real fail
Considering it was submitted 2 minutes ago, it says. Who ever probably made it themselves.
Now thats fail.
hahahaha…now THATS funny. what a crazy fail!
…can’t believe some of you actually went to the question on Yahoo just to say something <_<
I didn’t go to say something… not initially anyway. I just wanted to see if it was really that new (within the last few days… since original clip says 2 minutes). When I saw that all that were on there were serious, helpful type answers… I really wished I could post something nice, one of you guys’ (and gals) wonderful “helpful” suggestions.
Use a quantum circle or a 4-dimensional circle, if its not enough use a 5-dimensional one.

If you can mk a quantum circle can you make an “Avatar” Quiltpatternsquare chart? Too complex? Changes everytime you go on a comment thread? Like that problem where if you’re

I won’t reply to this comment. Too irrestisiducibly complex 4 this time of nite.
Oh, that wuz me? *Never mind…..*
Have you tried the hypercube? It’d be like a neverending pie. Om nom.
i don’t get it
isnt part of the fail that he says its due tomorrow and then right under that it says “3 days left to answer”
oohhhhhhh i see now. thx!
Ryan is another way of saying FAIL!!!! As you can see its just a difference in spelling.
MMMMM PIE.
now srsly, what can i do if all data is in and i still have 40 degrees left? should i share them with ryan?
it took me like 20 minutes to read this and i think it’s so funny that it is more than a year later and it still says that it was posted 2 minutes ago.
this dudes an idiot, I’m freakin 10 and I know that this guy has like mental defects or something.
I hope this was to get on fail blog or this guy has some issues
meh
