bunnyrut, did i say bascic is a european word?
No, i said it’s a european language, so what the heck are you looking for a definition for? It’s the language spoken in the basque region, that’s in spain, near the french border.
…and stop googling everything i say, or do you think jesus’ disciples googled up if it was true that he’s god’s son? No, they believed… and look where they are now: they’re saints!
lol. so u speak bascic? cause i really am trying to find it and i still can’t find bascic for anything, not even a language. but you are saying that if i believe you i will become a saint centuries after i die?
I’m still marveling at the beautiful space before the exclamation point – so minimal, yet – so very eloquent. Amazing that a simple space can say so much, is it not?
I do think that the poster misspelled his/her name, however – I believe that the proper spelling is L-O-S-E-R.
man, computers have gotten so smart and complicated these days… They even know what I am thinking.
*begins pondering why they then let him make so many mistakes*

Hey, what did Popeye mean whenever he said that anyway? Did he mean what I think he meant?? Did his speech inflection prevent him from saying the word “there”????
My second guess if there had been no clue was G.K. Chesterton. The interesting thing is, none of them have ever been seen in the same room at the same time. . .
Hey people, I’m looking for a fial pic I once found on FailBlog.org but can’t find it. It’s a screenshot of a forum of some kind where someone has put a comment that says something like ‘the next person to post is gay’ followed by ANOTHER POST by the SAME PERSON that says ‘just thought you should know’.
If anyone reading this knows the name of that particular fail or has the URL for it, please post it, as I would like to share that fail with some people.
That fail never existed, you just made that up!
If you persist on finding it, go check out the vote section, and while you’re at it, message me if you happen to find my OBAMA fail!

If you can find the spelling error on the spine of the book and still think this is a legitimate publication, please report back to the first grade.
Well, my first thought was that of course this is about the Bascic language – i.e., NO FAIL. Then I looked it up and realised that the English word for this language is actually Basque. So, now I don’t quite know what to think!
FIRST !
You obviously only have bascic life skills, how sad.
I don’t think it’s sad, I think it’s funny
And so original and insightful. A true eye-opening thought to ponder all day. Especially the space before the !, too.

You’re welcome! If you ever desire more sarcasm, just let me know. It’s my specialty.

This sounds like it’s going to be a good one!
Watch out for the priest, elephant potato!
If you can’t laugh at yourself, laugh at Winner.
It’s bascic reading skills, not basic writting skills, so it somewhat makes sense.

mad world

mad world is an awesome song!
Holy crap, I just listened to that song on my iPod
I know, because every move you make, every step you take, I’ll be watching you.

Oh stalking, where is thy Sting?
HE’S BEHIND YOU!
Somebody call the Police!!
sorry, the Police!! stalked away, and may not be called to. please insert baby head in wagon to call bus uncle. he may help with hes ‘instant poking stalker discovering rudder… or raddar… or radar.
You’ve obviously fallen off the wagon.
Can we stuff him back onto the wagon and send it far away from here?
I think his name is a lie.
More with your disturbing banter! You came and bother us no should all salute him. Cut up technique and for that we to return whence call! You a crazy person and ask you Burroughs’ famous give. Credit some Soberman, for he is obviously using I.
ummm… not much to say to that except huh?
Are you using a translator? It doesn’t exactly work as proper English.
Or am I missing something here?
Psst… aikiwaza, we’ve got some great examples of snark over on the interview fail.
oooohhhh!!!!! I’m there!
*grabs paper and pen*
@ aikiwaza: it’s a cut-up using Burroughs’ technique.
i’m not a lie! you think of the cake.
salute and credit me!(all ways of crediting acepted, included bukcit and bascic dollars)
da do do do, da da da da…
That’s all I’ve got to say to you.
I blame fluffy, like you Arthur, for being part of the culture that draws smart folks to this blog. Thank you.
Smart folks? Muahahahahaha!
Arthur Eld always wears a tuxedo I’ll have you know. His dress sense is impeccable.
But I don’t have a nice tophat like you’re wearing.
Thank you, AA! It’s an even bigger compliment since one of the smartest guys around voiced it.
Wait a minute. There’s smart peeps in here?!?
There is a dress code dontcha know?
Every time I dress up I start screaming.
Puttin’ on the ritz!
as long as it doesn’t require a tie, I might be able to keep my sanity.
*adjusts slinky little black dress*
oooooooooh, very nice!
*makes further adjustments*
Oooh. Even nicer.
I’ll just keep my arms there all night then.
I support your decision wholeheartedly.
Then it will be a cinch.
*laces fingers through yours*
*gathers you in close*

I thought the dress code was “Clothing Optional”…
I think it’s funny

What, I don’t get any credit? Did a parody of the chorus to that song just the other day.

This is a book written by the late Theodore Bascic, a celebrated professor from the 70’s…it is not a fail. he taught semi-retarded 3rd-world children “BASIC” reading skills for a greater part of his life. look it up
Reading and spelling are different things, ya know.
bascically.
if you want to learn to spell, you should search for “bascic spelling skills”
Bascic is a european language you tarts, there’s no fail here!
european for what? i can’t find a definition for it.
argument fail
Baltic Area Secret Code In Cyrillic
duh
bunnyrut, did i say bascic is a european word?
No, i said it’s a european language, so what the heck are you looking for a definition for? It’s the language spoken in the basque region, that’s in spain, near the french border.
…and stop googling everything i say, or do you think jesus’ disciples googled up if it was true that he’s god’s son? No, they believed… and look where they are now: they’re saints!
Did you just compare yourself to Jesus? Really?
Delusions of grandeur alert!
Shhht… never disagree with the mentally challenged. If he thinks he’s Jesus, let him.
Does that mean we can crucify him later?
(my apologies to those offended on a religious level)
I would do it now, but I’m not looking forward to the resurrection part.
(see above)
We would never hear the end of it would we?
I’m bascicly unoffended religiously and have no problem crucifying him as long as we get to flog him first
I must say as a strict Catholic that I am very un-offended and that those that don’t take it in good humor need to loosen up a little.
Just make sure we know what his “safe” word is –
I hate it when these things get out of control!
lol. so u speak bascic? cause i really am trying to find it and i still can’t find bascic for anything, not even a language. but you are saying that if i believe you i will become a saint centuries after i die?
nope, closest thing is Bizkaian. still a spelling fail.
Well, there is Basque language. Still fail though.
I’ve alway wanted to learn to speak Bascic. Or Icelandic! But I’m digressing…
Or you could try the dicitionary.
In the same way that numbers and math are different things.
But pennies and dollars are the same.
Only to phone companies.
That’s a matter of opinion.
Finally, a statement that makes cents.
I’m putting this on my blog.
I’m putting this on my clogs.
Half on one.
Half on the other.
Have to buy some first, though.
In life, there are many skillz.
Wiener’s “FIRST !” is not one of them.
Hiya velvet!
Hey sweets! ((smooch))
I’m still marveling at the beautiful space before the exclamation point – so minimal, yet – so very eloquent. Amazing that a simple space can say so much, is it not?
I do think that the poster misspelled his/her name, however – I believe that the proper spelling is L-O-S-E-R.
See, that’s why I’m so attracted to you. You have the gift of sarcasm. And you use it so well. ((swoon))
Awwwwwww…
‘Tis nothing, my dear. Well, not much, anyway. On second thought, maybe it IS something. I’ll have to ponder…
True that. But still, I find it difficult to read words that have erroneous letters.
Basic Writing Skillz fail
Bascic editing skills
http://www.lowbrowsophisticate.com
How do we know it’s not a book on how to identify different spelling errors and that was the first test.
How do we know it didn’t come from Alabama?
then it’s not bascic
that’s advavnced
Certainly too difficult for a noviece
Yes, should have started easier. Like “moran” or “your”.
Sounds Czech.
Sounds czuhc.
sounds czeezy
That’s some mad skillz there.
How how a book containing words describing ‘bascic’ reading skills be of any use to you if you can’t read?
How how?

Here’s the bukkit.
Maybe he’s just a native American Indian?
Maybe he’s just another naive American?
Maybe he’s just another knave American?
He would attest he’s just a brave American.
Perhaps he’s a naval American?
That’s a naval idea!
Perhaps he’s a novel American?
He’s an American in a nave?
Could he be a nerval American?
It is a bit like that help line for people with telephobia.
‘How how’ to you too my Native American friend.
If you catch the error then you pass, like a simplified CLEP test.
There are better ways of telling whether or not you’ve got the CLEP…

‘Bascic’ is actually a kind of reading technique adopted in southern Arabia.
I don’t see whtat the big deal is…
There are actually two g’s in “readingg.”
It’s an invisible g, but you have to pronounce it.
so that’s why my spell checker keeps dinging me when I write ‘reading!’
You have to press space, but think ‘invisible g’.
man, computers have gotten so smart and complicated these days… They even know what I am thinking.
*begins pondering why they then let him make so many mistakes*
*finally decides it’s the programmers out to get him*
I blame the word creators. It’d have been easier if they hadn’t made the ‘visible g’ silent.
And there are 7 g’s in g-g-g-g-g-g-goods.

That book’s a bit wimpy.
I’ll gladly pay you Tuesday for a Bascic Reading Skills book today.
Olive for books like that.
Yuk yuk yuk yuk. Well blow me down!

Hey, what did Popeye mean whenever he said that anyway? Did he mean what I think he meant?? Did his speech inflection prevent him from saying the word “there”????
Hiya, Sweatpea!
*SMOOCH!*
…This spelling mistake has been brought to you by the Bascic Reading Skills Book.
What are you talking about, I love sweat peas. They’re like snow peas, only saltier.
Is your avatar Fiddler’s Green?
I’ll give you one hint…”DIABEETUS!”
Ah. Wilford Brimley?
Indeed.
The first time I saw your avatar I thought it was Noble Willingham aka “C.D.” on Walker, Texas Ranger. Close match.
My second guess if there had been no clue was G.K. Chesterton. The interesting thing is, none of them have ever been seen in the same room at the same time. . .
*SMOOCH!*
*whispers something sweet*
*offers a sweat deal*
*innocent look*
Talk about an offer I can’t refuse…!
this is a fail SO HARD, if a rock was made of it, it could pierce titanium.
This is a FAIL so hard that even if it were nitrogen gas it could pierce your head.
Thats corny.
Why not just say that if it were a rock, it’s be a diamond? You failed.
Because titanium is more awesome than a diamond. You of all people should know that!

I think this answers the question, “Why are there school?”
Does it teach me the way past all the GOTOs?
This isn’t a reading fail, it is a writing fail.
Try reading the page title. It isn’t a reading fail, it is a ‘Basic Fail’.
Unless your post was supposed to be ironic. In which case, bravo.
thats what happens when you spend all your time on reading and none on spelling.
Well, they have basic reading skills, nobody said anything about writing skills! Which are obviously bascic.
Why is it that the people selecting which photos go on the site don’t screen them for obvious photoshops?
Because they’re out to get you. You and your little dog.
My brain hurts…
i would like to just slap that bitch one good time!
Reakky this is a completely FAIL
basic writing fail

Well, my first thought was that of course this is about the Bascic language – i.e., NO FAIL. Then I looked it up and realised that the English word for this language is actually Basque. So, now I don’t quite know what to think!

Basic Grammar Fail.

Could it possibly be the surname listed first and then the title as is usual on books. ie “Bascic – Reading Skills”
You’ll never find me!
I see you! *tick* Cuddles is it!

We have to stop meeting like this!
We’ll be the talk of the failblog :awe:
I have no idea what I was doing, but it didn’t work.
Ok, everyone go hide. I’ll start counting.
*finds a hiding place in Mookie’s pants*
Mr. Cuddles will never look here!
I’m pretty sure that Lou will, though.
am I the only one who is questioning why there is a BOOK on how to read?
To be fair, it’s not Basic Spelling Skills.
too basic if you ask me
what those words say?
NIPPLE CLAMPS!
i think it’s ‘baskic reading skills’
