    Professionalism fail, too.

    • LibrarianJessica says:

      I was thinking the exact same thing.

    • kmd says:

      I’d delete the “, too.”

      No need to be macho manly man to be the freaking weather guy, but definitely a need to be able to stay on camera through a bug’s arrival.

      • Dragonfail says:

        If a freaking cockroach was on my leg, I would be more than squealing OH MY GAWD!! I would probably be doing a full throated 12 year old girl scream, ftw.

  7. 216 says:

    old but fail nonetheless

  8. BuZZer says:

    Episode VI: The Coackroach Strikes Back

    Pussy.

  9. Jakoby says:

    When black dudes are gay they really don’t hold back on how gay they are, do they

  10. TheFirst says:

    Almost first…., but wtf? …. Did he keep his job?

  11. BuZZer says:

    It should be Episode V, I just noticed that. FAIL!

    • BuZZer says:

      And I should have replied to my first comment instead of posting another useless comment. Sorry guys, double-fail this time!

      • velvet says:

        You’ve completely lost me on this one. What first comment? Episode V?

        • BuZZer says:

          My first comment was:

          “Episode VI: The Coackroach Strikes Back

          Pussy.”

          But good to know that I at least confused some people with my nonsense ;) .

          • velvet says:

            And now that all of the original posts have been put in their respective places, this makes sense.
            .
            Failblog posting filter fail.

    I think he is straight.

    • BuzzKill says:

      gaydar fail

      • TMI Service says:

        Appropriately enough for a meteorologist, they appear to be using the cognitive-behavioral technique known as “flooding”:

        The final and central component of phobia treatment involves actual exposure to fear cues. The therapist works with the client to identify a hierarchy of fear-evoking situations. The client is then asked to enter situations, beginning at the low end of the hierarchy, on a regular basis until the fear has attenuated. The situation that arouses the next level of anxiety is then targeted. Employing more intense initial exposures and NOT proceeding in a graduated manner is referred to as “flooding”.

    • fuzz on the concept says:

      yeah, that’s why he freaked out so much when the male cockroach started coming on to him

      • raelalt says:

        … A man was sitting at home one evening, when the doorbell rang.
        When he answered the door, a 6 foot tall cockroach was standing there.
        The cockroach immediately punched him between the eyes and scampered off.
        .
        The next evening, the man was sitting at home when the doorbell rang again.
        When he answered the door, the cockroach was there again. This time, it punched him, kicked him and karate chopped him before running away.
        .
        The third evening, the man was sitting at home when the doorbell rang. When he answered the door, the cockroach was there yet again.
        It leapt at him and stabbed him several times before running off. The gravely injured man managed to crawl to the telephone and summoned an ambulance.
        He was rushed to intensive care, where they saved his life.
        .
        The next morning, the doctor was doing his rounds. He asked the man what happened, so the man explained about the 6 foot cockroach’s attacks, culminating in the near fatal stabbing.
        The doctor thought for a moment and said,
        “Yes, there’s a nasty bug going around.”

    Seen it yesterday.

    That’s pretty funny. I bet that would actually boost their ratings. I’d watch him after just to see what he does next!

    Another 5 year old video.

    This blog is fail!!!!

  20. J says:

    GRRR, by the time I read all the comments I wasn’t first any more.

  21. CM says:

    OH MY GAWDDD

    I hate cockroaches, but I’ve every right to spazz because I’m a girl. But even I wouldn’t freak out as terribly as that guy.

    • dilettante says:

      You are not the kind of girl I’d have a beer with. Good day.

    • Avis says:

      To paraphrase a friend of mine, when you live alone you have to be your own spider slayer. One would assume this is also true of roaches. If ones had roaches. And if ones home has roaches one might want to consider an exterminator.

      • Dragonwriter says:

        *proudly displays ‘SPIDER SLAYER!’ badge*

        :grin:

      • Avis says:

        *removes extraneous “s” from previous post*
        *hangs head in shame*

      • utterly unoriented says:

        Just take them outside – random jar + paper.
        Unless you’re going to eat it.

        • Avis says:

          I live on the 21 floor!! I am not spending that much time close to a spider willingly. And no, I’m not gonna eat the creepy crawly.

          • medica says:

            No windows? Spiders like those.

            • Avis says:

              Screens that are not removable. They have a few tiny tears (which is how I figure they get in in the first place) but nothing big enough to force a spider through.

              • medica says:

                *super wishes could suggest practical gesture*

                • Avis says:

                  *had a run in with a brown recluse*
                  *is not terribly inclined to be kind to eight legged creatures*

                  • medica says:

                    Have escorted all creatures carefully to the outdoors forever. Have encountered a brown recluse in the home (once). Before I had any idea wtf was even occuring or what I was looking at I had instinctively smashed the body with my palm, realizing only after the fact what/why/wtf had happened.
                    Brown recluse, different story altogether.
                    A human has a body and has therefore earthbound instincts.
                    .
                    Lots of eight-legged ones, on the other hand …
                    but I sympathize with generalization (how could one not, each of us having something that could?).

                    • Dragonwriter says:

                      I was bitten by a brown recluse once.

                      Really…not fun. But the scar is really impressive!

                      • Avis says:

                        I caught the bite early, I was at the doctors with in two hours. I was lucky.

                        • The brain is funny in that aspect… I am not scared by 1000-degree flames, hazardous materials, blood, guts or gore, yet put a spider in front of me and I have two choices- kill it or vacate the premises. Immediately. I simply cannot coexist in the same space as a spider. No other bug affects me like that, not even a little.

                        • Dragonwriter says:

                          *drops a rubber spider on Lunchbox’s neck*

                        • See, that’s not funny. I’ve got the creepy-crawlies now, just at your mentioning it. I absolutely hate this damned phobia, because the rational part of my brain understands that it is baseless fear. The deeper crap, however, doesn’t really give a damn what I think.

                        • Dragonwriter says:

                          Ooh…sowwy, sweets.

                          *removes rubber thingy and gives Lunchbox a cookie*

                        • Mookie says:

                          I agree, LB, phobias are no fun, and you cannot rationalize them away.

                        • TMI Service says:

                          It’s come up a couple times in recent threads, but I’ll mention it again. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (”CBT”) is the gold standard for eliminating phobias.They don’t have to know all about your childhood, aren’t particularly interested in your dreams, and it take only weeks, rather than months or years, to work. It’s very practical and very effective for a majority of people.
                          .
                          Phobias have the funny distinction of being one of the more intensely unpleasant of psychological conditions and yet one of the easiest to cure — it just doesn’t seem “funny” when you’re experiencing the effects. :)

                    • dilettante says:

                      I do not kill anything. Ever. If I do accidentally, crying ensues. For days.

                      • dilettante says:

                        Oh man, forgot about shrimp, I’ve been vegan for 15 years. Otherwise it’s all true.

                        • Culinary vs. Moral says:

                          Maybe anchovies too (French, Thai).
                          But I’m sure you’ve heard the arguments regarding lives in terms of a bowl of rice.
                          Seems to be the cycle we’re born & die in, or?

                        • dilettante says:

                          Or. I am a spectacularly unhealthy person. But I love many a fish I’ve enjoyed unwittingly, been horrified that I liked, and then sought out. I stopped drinking my favorite bar’s bloody maryses when I found out they were lying about the clam juice, but now I crave it. I am a Caesar salad purist. What to do? Decide fish can’t feel pain because I wish they wouldn’t? We shall see.

                        • medica says:

                          Recommend raw dosages.
                          Evaluate wellbeing thereafter.

  24. Geek says:

    Aren’t all weathermen gay?

  25. Blue2thFairy says:

    Why does everyone think he is gay?

  26. Ashley says:

    Old but still hilarious…

  27. DP says:

    Can someone please transscript what he “said” (or shrieked, that is)? Something appears to be wrong with his leg but I just couldn’t understand it. Gotta be something he freaked out about.

  28. Nik says:

    He’s just channeling Chris Tucker from The Fifth Element:

  29. Sithinious says:

    I think that’s the funniest “Fail” video I’ve seen yet…

  30. Maskdt says:

    I’m now tempted to buy a breeding colony of discoid cockroaches and release them on the nearest unsuspecting weatherman…um…for science!

  31. devilwoman says:

    one of my favorites!

  32. Lumie says:

    It’s Ru – B – Rod!!!

  33. Danny says:

    the appropriate black response is to hold your fist up to your mouth and yell AW FUCK IT S A COCK-A-ROACH

  34. kyuukichan says:

    he only sounds about half as girly as the guy I sat next to in AP Bio class did when he realized that the bug he was holding was a hissing cockroach. man, hearing him scream like a girl in front of the whole class was WONDERFUL (since he was a total jerk).

  35. aaron says:

    THEY PUT THE SECOND ONE THERE ON PURPOSE

  36. ProudMary says:

    Could somebody please explain to me why being gay is fail?

    I mean, the clip is funny. But if this is fail, it’s also fail if, say, Chuck Norris goes apesh!7 over a cockroach on the floor and starts stomping on the ground like he needs to poo or something.

    Actually there’s a lot of homophobic fails here. And that’s the biggest fail of all.

  37. ydobon says:

    *Captain! No sign on the testical radar!

  38. medicat says:

    I’m starting to notice a very distinct pattern; that when a fail is remotely tangible to something subject to discrimination, it’s as if the cockroaches spill out from shadows preferably never known (or illuminated/eliminated, if possible). At this moment, I miss the trucks that did not fit under their respective bridges.

  39. helen says:

    Just step on it. Gee whiz.
