Some of your guesses were good and some were incredibly stupid, but I’ve actually heard the saying “Safety 3rd” – here’s the rest of it:
God 1st
Ladies 2nd
Safety 3rd
You made a comment on Crazy Cock thread about having your drink come out your nose and I made what I think is quite the witty retort…actually I think it is the funniest thing I have ever remarked in my entire life. Just sayin’.
I got caught out by that too. I was only half paying attention to the S&M lecture while fantasizing, and just caught the end ‘remember the safety word’. *sigh*
I once removed my pants and went to feed the mushrooms. Actually, they weren’t mushrooms but giant Drosera’s and I forgot to bring the dog for safety. Next thing I know the plants are all over me and I’m masturbating like crazy. That seriously reduced my profits that day. So remember: safety third!
I’m pretty certain that the ???-step has some anti-safety qualities since it leads to hospital attendance.. btw, forgot the step 6: one of the FAILiest FAILs ever
Remember: First, retrieve the pistol from the toilet tank. Second, unwrap the gun. Third, take the safety off – Remember: Safety third. Fourth, go back to the table and shoot that mook between his beady little eyes, capice?
I noticed that you left a safety turd on the table next to the cookies to prevent someone stealing them. Never guessed that someone would ignore the cookies and steal the turd. Tsk tsk.
Must be part of the planning process for Top Gear.
1. Get flashy fast cars.
2. Can we incorporate destroying caravans in flashy fast car segment?
3. Safety.
4. Mock each other.
very nice!
particularly as it could well explain the near death (Hamster) and the repeated (temporarily?) crippling back injuries (Jezzer). wonder what’s in store for Captain Slow?
It was originally a Burning Man thing. Lots of crews doing dangerous things while in a messed up state of mind swear by Safety Third. Very few people can remember (or ever knew) what came first, so for the record:
1. Water
2. Finding someone to sleep with
3. Safety third.
But that’s only part of the recipie to make a fail! to make a fail, you need a midset which puts:
Stupidity first
Douchebaggery second
Safety third
Add items that are put in wrong places (and i’m not talking about those religious potatoes folks), maybe some things that went the wrong way, and a few things that break, record with a video camera, or camera, and you have a fail!
*ping!*
What are you talking about? This is totally a WIN. Obviously you have never caught your kitchen on fire doing awesome science experiments, tried to tight rope walk while drunk, or been to Burning Man.
Yep, it’s not a fail, it’s a real sticker – one of the unofficial mottos of Burning Man. Safety First would be a slightly hypocritical principle in the city that brought you:
Yea I got nothing.
FIRST
tsuitachi
Party First! =D
Hmm nesting fail, I did NOT intend to feed that troll? You believe me right? Huh? Huh!? *Mad eyes*
*Quietly removes the ‘?’ after troll and inserting ‘!’ *
i spy with my eye… jerky edges on the sign.. a PHOTOSHOPPED PICTURE!
Bless you!
Eyy *pokes* don’t feed them! *Points at sign*
Wait did I just….. anti….win?
Well, you only said that to be first huh? so I guess so.
THIRD!
First reply to the third
Some of your guesses were good and some were incredibly stupid, but I’ve actually heard the saying “Safety 3rd” – here’s the rest of it:
God 1st
Ladies 2nd
Safety 3rd
That sign was probably at a church or something.
Sounds about right.
this is one of my favourite fails of all time.
simple.
stupid.
spectacular.
well, safety second would be too catchy, so I guess they just stuck with safety 3rd.
Third
Is that you Mr. Safety?
Safety
so what’s 1st & 2nd?
Ha almost got me to own it!
1) A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2) A robot must obey orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3) Safety ?
WIN
…and the Third to round this off nicely…
Profit is always #1
sex, drugs.
1- Pants removal
2- Mushroom feeding
3- Safety
4- Profit
Mmmmm profit *drool’s*
nice apostrophe you’ve got there, professor!
Don’t look at me, it was a troll who did it! I swear on my mothers eyes.
You forgot the ??? step?
You dirty mumintroll, what are you thinking lou meant?
Where did your comments come from? They were not there earlier?
I’m going mad.
I’m moominpappa, moomintroll is my son.
Yes, how can we learn from you if you forget the mystery step?
Do not worry, you will have the ??? just after the mushrooms feeding.
I’m just waiting for the day that I will accidenty patient information on FB and funny stuff in the medical charts. That wil be quite a ??? .
Doc, come on now, we know you want to do it! tell us at least one!
Yeah, that’s the traditional time to have ???
Someday I hope to learn to dance the mystery step – then all will adore me! Or at least stop pelting me with feces…
Hm, I was a lot happier when everybody kept his own private ??? to himself.
Yes, I think a little ??? is important in a relationship.
I’m in a relationship? These aren’t my meds!
Guess what I’m ??? right now…
A blingy pinapple!
Is that why you’re wearing nothing but socks?
Hang on, hang…on… Just let me try something…?…?…?…oh, nice.
I hope you’re not doing your Red Hot Chilli Pepper impression.
I thought I remember theirs pointing down though?
You made a comment on Crazy Cock thread about having your drink come out your nose and I made what I think is quite the witty retort…actually I think it is the funniest thing I have ever remarked in my entire life. Just sayin’.
And not sideways?
It says ’safety third’ not ’safety word’, there’s no need to get THAT excited.
*embarrassed* I thought ‘remember’ sounded like a silly safety word.
I got caught out by that too. I was only half paying attention to the S&M lecture while fantasizing, and just caught the end ‘remember the safety word’. *sigh*
Towards the end I was hollaring REMEMBER!! …she thought I was talking about squash match this arvo…
our ^
When the hell did the CWR comment arrive on this thread because it’s only just been made visible to me?
I like it CWR.
Thankee.
That’s the thing, safety IS the ???? step! The mystery has been solved!
I once removed my pants and went to feed the mushrooms. Actually, they weren’t mushrooms but giant Drosera’s and I forgot to bring the dog for safety. Next thing I know the plants are all over me and I’m masturbating like crazy. That seriously reduced my profits that day. So remember: safety third!
I learnt more about you than I wanted to from this. I wish you’d kept it a mystery
I thought it important to clarify the ???s for once and for all, especially for the youngsters.
Is the ??? always this? That shows all the other posts in a new light! :O
I am not dancing to that. I don’t care if my own little feces raincloud follows me around for the rest of my life.
It’s the hail storm you should be worried about…urrgh, more fibre.
Moral fiber? Self righteous pinapple…
Pineapple! That doesn’t look right either…mebbe if I removed the exclamation point?
More mirth required…definAtely. Though, careful…I still remember when you first met the pineapple.
Is that like when one first ’sees the elephant’?
1- Potato peeling
2- Naked curtain hanging
3- Safety
4- ???
5- Hospital attendance
I’m pretty certain that the ???-step has some anti-safety qualities since it leads to hospital attendance.. btw, forgot the step 6: one of the FAILiest FAILs ever
4 – Prepare Potato
4 – Try desperately to think of plausible excuse and get your story straight before phoning for ambulance?
5 – Prepare curtains and table to fit explanations in the hospital
6 – Feel you’ve got away with it until you see the headlines?
7 – Make up stupid statements as “I wasn’t playing any erotic game”
1- Breathe some laughing gas
2- Put a condom over your head
3- Safety
4- ???
5- Misadventure
1- Close lid
2- Open lid
3- Safety
4- ???
5- Paradox!
1- Buy an sprinkler
2- Follow rainbow
3- Safety (do not drink the water)
3- ???
4- Profit!
Step 5 sounds familiar.
1st comment
2th AVE
3rd Safety
4th FAIL
Rule #1 is always ‘don’t get caught’.
Awareness First
Prevention Second?
Obama wanted to put America first. So there you go.
To me that looks fake…
Again, I hate to be that guy, but yes, this is completely fake.
Natural selection fourth.
Natural erection fifth.
Unnatural predilection sixth.
Immaculate conception seventh.
WIN!
Multilateral trajection (eighth!).
Remember: First, retrieve the pistol from the toilet tank. Second, unwrap the gun. Third, take the safety off – Remember: Safety third. Fourth, go back to the table and shoot that mook between his beady little eyes, capice?
Godfather win?
bingbingbing!
Anpu is displeased. Everyone knows safety comes ssecond, after Zeppelin.
REAL FAKE.
LOL. OK?
Fake, and also recycled.
FAIL Blog FAIL!
Safety Turd
Yes, who’s stolen the safety turd? I left it right here an hour ago!
I noticed that you left a safety turd on the table next to the cookies to prevent someone stealing them. Never guessed that someone would ignore the cookies and steal the turd. Tsk tsk.
Hot mama for Obama First
Giant Gummy Bear Second
Security Third
damn… was Safety Third ( copy fail )
That’s Giant Gummy Bear – on a stick!

3. Safety.
4. Mock each other.
very nice!
particularly as it could well explain the near death (Hamster) and the repeated (temporarily?) crippling back injuries (Jezzer). wonder what’s in store for Captain Slow?
come on it’s a fake
A fake what, though? It’s the only sign of it’s kind, I’m willing to bet.
a self-made sticker
Still original then, innit?
yes it is
Fail first
Win second
Saftey Third
I disagree. Safety fifth.
1. Ladies first (I’m a southerner)
2. Sex
3. Drugs
4. Rock and Roll
5. Safety
It’s the first place it fits.
Some people mistakenly put Sex, Drugs, and Rock and Roll together as one item, but one can easily see the fallacy in that.
In my opinion even putting the Rock and the Roll together is a fallacy.
1. load
2. cock
3. safety
4. fire
5. repeat
Drinking First
Running Second
Safety Third
on-on
And we have a winner!
ALWAYS drinking first, running/walking second, safety third… got to be safety third for the extra beer when youre a hare lol
on-on
ROTFL, so what comes first and second I wonder?
RT

Adbot fail.
It was originally a Burning Man thing. Lots of crews doing dangerous things while in a messed up state of mind swear by Safety Third. Very few people can remember (or ever knew) what came first, so for the record:
1. Water
2. Finding someone to sleep with
3. Safety third.
My nuts are itchy.
Aaaaw. I wasn’t gonna tell.
Further for the record, that is definitely a real sticker and there are more than a few of them in circulation.
The only fake thing is the fail :-p
Somebody had to tell, too many ppl crying fake…
the answer we always give to the question “What are numbers 1 and 2?” is “Whatever you want, just safety 3rd”
Finally, somebody gets the Burning Man reference!
I thought it was
1. Fire
2. Fun
3. Safety
at burning man.
Thank you for mentioning Burning Man! I was waiting for someone to get it!
I live by safety third and I think this is a total win
URL fail… missing an L. I find that annoying. http://failblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/fail-owned-safety-third-fai.jpg

*ping!*
Exactly. Except that the first two things are variable. They really could be anything, just as long as safety is always third.
Photoshopped
photoshop is 12th. so no.
1. Collect underpants!
2. …
3. Safety!
It’s from Ford, where quality is one job…
Good one.
Is second “attempt to profit” ?
actually, epic win.
1. no fucking clowns
2. changes daily
3. safety
What are you talking about? This is totally a WIN. Obviously you have never caught your kitchen on fire doing awesome science experiments, tried to tight rope walk while drunk, or been to Burning Man.
1. Shelter
2. Buzz
3. Safety.
Duh!
1st and 2nd would be…?
There are DOZENS of suggestions (one of them actually correct) above as to what first and second are.
YOU FAIL.
Hunter S Thompson
Burning Man Win!
Yep, it’s not a fail, it’s a real sticker – one of the unofficial mottos of Burning Man. Safety First would be a slightly hypocritical principle in the city that brought you:
Dance Dance Immolation:

The Hydrogen Economy:
http://labs.false-profit.com/hydrogeneconomy/
and the Teeter-Totter of Death:
http://www.loupiote.com/burningman/photos/2829361593.shtml
That’s not a fail. They are merely being honest about their priorities.
That’s right!
1. speed
2. accuracy
3. safety
Damn, somebody has already beaten me to the punch with the inevitable Underpants Gnome reference, but what the hell, I’m going to make it anyway…
1. Affix sign to wall(?)
2. ???
3. Safety!
Yay, Rob’s pic from work made it!
lol, funny
So a sign written in an attempt at humor qualifies as a fail?
Maybe it’s the concept that fails since we’ve been taught “safety first”.
But it’s not always first. The phrase should read “acceptable risk first.”
Safety 1nd!
That’s a burning man saying if i’m not mistaken…
I miss you Black Rock City!!
Yep. Gigsville Village in particular is known for it, though it’s spread to all of Black Rock.
Actually, this is my parenting motto. My son has it on a patch on his book bag. His science projects often catch fire or explode.
That’s the motto at my peanut packing plant.
1. There’s always time for Pi
2.F*ck Yer Day!
3. Safety 3rd!
So it’s says “Safety always last” than pirst
Yay Pystek, glad to see another BRC resident here. Glad someone gets the joke.
Oh, and big dusty hugs to Cabana Boy and Sam too.
As I continue to scroll the comments I see more BRC peeps here. Dusty hugs to all.
One of my favorite BRC slogans.
Get her drunk first.
Strip her second.
Safety third.
lol
THIS IS NOT A FAIL!
think about it. For me it’s
1)loud music
2)lots of people
3)safety
THAT’S MY MOTTO!
after what?
The motto of Burners everywhere…BURNING MAN!!!
Food first
Sex second
Safety when you can be bothered
motto of fire spinners everywhere!
“Yeah, that sounds like a good idea, just remember…safety third!”
1.Fun
2.Cookies
3.Safety
wasn’t funny >_>
It says 3rd when it should be 1st.
