Well great job, you got it right?
Also, I think Germany is not located in Cambodia, but as for the others…
Cambodia is a country, all of the answers are countries, Countries aren’t in other countries (except Vatican City).
A most concise, accurate, and thoroughly irony-free analysis of this fail. Thank you.
Not always true. UK is one big country made up of 4 smaller countries. Can’t think of any other examples, though. UAE maybe?
Well, England is not a country. Doesn’t have a seat of government and no constitution. Both are vital for a country (apart from land, of course
).
England is not a country? Are you sure you aren’t confusing it with Wales which is of course a Principality…
England is not a country, UK is. People say England when they mean the UK
um… england is a country, so is wales. the UK is a KINGDOM of UNITED countries. thats y it stand for the United Kingdom
England is a province of the UK, just as California, Texas, New York, et al. are provinces within the USA. Why do I call them provinces and not states? Because, technically, a state is a country. So there.
Damn. That means my entire country doesnt exist!
Oh, wait, England has both a seat of government and a series of documents about rights and responsibilities, and even some stuff about that ‘law’ stuff. Ah well. Still isnt a constitution.
/sarcasm
England’s just a broad term for the entire island there in the Atlantic. Great Britain would be what we Americans commonly think of as the “English”, then there’s Wales, Scotland and Ireland.
Backwards. Great Britain is the island (Lesser Britain would be Ireland, except calling it that will cost you your kneecaps. England is the southeast and central part of Great Britain. Ireland is not part of Great Britain (which is why the full name of the UK is “The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland”. The state known asIreland (as opposed to the island known as Ireland) is most definitely not part of Great Britain (hence the formerly-frequent kneecappings).
Are they still squabbling over that? I mean, I noticed that attacks are happening again in NI, so I guess it’s not over yet.
You all fail for not knowing basic geography knowledge.
Shame on all of you for commenting in a fail.blog when
you are all not much better than the entries.
UK is not a country and contains the countries: Northern Ireland,
England, Wales and Scotland.
Great Britain is not a country and also is not the same as the UK.
It covers England, Wales and Scotland.
No, Lesser Britain is Brittany.
Ireland is a Republic and NOT part of the UK in any way
dude, what about the magna carta?
new zealand doesnt have a constituion, does that make it not a country?
Since concise, accurate facts seems to lead the way rather than BS, irony and fun;
England is a country. So is Scotland. Oh, and by the way, Wales to. And Northern Ireland. The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland hower, is not a country. The UK is a sovereign state.
But your point is still valid, in regards of enclaves:
-The Kingdom of Lesotho, completely surrounded by South Africa
-The Republic of San Marino, completely surrounded by Italy
-Vatican City, also completely surrounded by Italy
End of todays geography lesson
*suddenly wakes up* Huh? Is class finally over?
Forget it. This will go on for …well, ever, I guess.
Alright, wake me when class is over then. *nods back off*
Sleeping in class, are we? >:(
You just bought yourself detention!
(And a hard spanking<3)
Don’t make promises you have no intention keeping!
^of
And what time should I be at your office sir?
Come see me after class! Or whenever you get here…
Kind of a long way I guess… =/
Can I watch?
That depends on the definition of Country. In America, Country is synonymous with Sovereign state, so England wouldn’t be considered a country, but rather a Constituent Unit. This of course, is the right way to think of it, because it is the American way, and if anyone disagrees we’ll invade them SO THERE!
Sadly, that’s pretty true. That’s the thing I dislike about my country as a whole.
*coughmycountryisAmericacough*
where do you live?
In fact America is a continent, not a country… Maybe you refer to the United States of America
Actually there isn’t a continent of America. There’s a continent of North America. There’s also a continent of South America. Then there’s the country of the United States of America. Any of those can properly be referred to as America. So quit you pointless whining.
Of course there is a continent of America. The fact that it is divided in North America and South America is merely for geographic reasons. Those two are not continents, they are sections of America, called sub-continents.
By the way, when you consider the division North America and South America, Mexico is in North America, but when you change South America for Latin America, then Mexico is in Latin America; this last one is a division of language, having nothing to do with Geography.
Umm… they are two completely different continents. There are seven continents. North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia and Antarctica. They are each on a different continental plate. That’s geography. Mexico is in North America, as is most of central America. Latin America is the countries in North and South America together that speak languages from the latin family of languages, such as Spanish or Portuguese. It is not a continent, but Mexico is part of it. Technically Canada should be since French is a Latin language, but nobody counts them.
Who is your sovereign? The president?
http://www.dictionary.com is American and it doesn’t mention that nonsense.
A country has to be recognised by the UN, which England is.
By definition the individual states in the United States are Soverign States under the Federal Government. Using this definition England is more than a state because the monarch is the King of England AND the King of Scotland.
dude you forgot Swaziland.. completely surrounded by South Africa
woo…. 6th grade geography finally paying off…
But is not “in” S. Africa.
Don’t forget “Lovely”, the country created by author Danny Wallace in his flat in London. It is accepted as an official country and has all the major requirements including passports and more citizens than Vatican City.
Swaziland and Lesetho are countries that are in (surrounded by) south Africa…
I totally read that as Switzerland the first time, and was throughly confused until I read it again hehehe.
ugh…. THOROUGHLY.
I think I need sleep.
Swaziland is actually bordered by South Africa and Mosambique, so…. Fail…
UK is not a country, it’s a kingdom of countries, hence the “United Kingdom”…
Geography FAIL!
History Fail!
The UK became a unified state in 1707. Authority rested with a central government, although the unified state was comprised of several nations.
Properly speaking, each of it’s constituent entities has a great deal of authority over local matters.
If it were not a Limited Monarchy with a Parliamentary System, the UK would be just like any other Federal system of government.
Fail because you just explained why it’s a “kingdom of countries.”
How about European Union, United States, Scandinavia? they are countries inside a unified country. Well, not sure if you can call it a country tbh, but in a way, they are(open borders and all..)
You’re an idiot.
EU = continent.
US = Country.
Scandinavia = Group of countries with similar people and culture.
*Shakes her head in despair of the ignorance of the people here.”
EU is _not_ a continent! Europe is a continent. EU
(European Union) is a union of independent countries.
Not as united as US. (Yet?)
“Shakes his head in despair of the ignorance of the people here.”
Nope, sorry, but as the name implies, UAE is made of EMIRITES.
Luv ya! xxx
Thank you, captain Obvious!
you called?
hahaha he DOES EXIST… can you come when I call next time…
Noice. You really know your geography, Geography.
Geography 101, we start easy.
Is that an ANGRY BEAVER ??!! Norbiiiiieeeee
And if you count Lesotho being inside South Africa, then that could be another example.
And San Marino.
Oh yes, how could I forget good ol’ San Marino.
That’s what I came to say. That and Petoria.
and Swaziland…
Swaziland is actually bordered by South Africa and Mosambique, so…. Fail…
didn’t you mean Lesotho?
no shit???
No, I’m sorry… We’re all out…
Better call in the party pooper, then
Lesotho is in another country… kinda — South Africa….
What about micronations? Such as the country created by Danny Wallace, clicky for details.
If you’re referring to countries completely surrounded by another country, you forgot San Marino and Lesotho.
Maybe Cambodia has no Russsian embassy… did you think of that? No, you didn’t.
Nor did you then.
I did. But that was too boring, so I stopped.
No, Vatican city is surrounded by Italy, it’s not in Italy.
Same as Lesotho and Southafrica.
Ok, ignore my answer since it’s been said like a thousand times.
Or Swaziland
There are countries inside countries other than Vatican City. Take Swaziland for instance
and Lesotho…
also fail. go look at a map of South Africa.
Vatican City is actually a sovereign city- state not a country. similar but different.
It’s clearly PURPLE!
Germany, Cambodia, or the others?
That tells you it’s working!
Or that you’re pregnant. Better read the box again.
If this is Germany I must be pregnant?
No, I think Germany means you’re not pregnant. These tests are always so confusing. You should probably pee on another one to be safe.
I peed on Thailand and it said I was having Siamese twins.
Is Lou the father of both twins, or just one of them?
You’ve seen Lou’s avatar – we’re having a litter.
You better be careful. Isn’t it a $500 fine for littering?
Probably set by the same tester as the one who dreamed up the Object Group Fail.
Ya, but this one is a bit harder.
Sarah Palin probably thinks they’re all in Cambodia. Actually, now I think of it, she told us she can see Russia from her window, and has almost certainly never heard of the other places. I know! It was SHE who answered the question here!
I’ll wager that she is the one who also made the question.
Sarah Palin does not think they’re in Cambodia.
Sarah Palin thinks Cambodia is one of those states down near Mexico where all the evil furriners come from.

Your thumb doesn’t look too good. See a doctor (at least if it stays like that for over four hours).
Is Sarah Palin about to become the Chuck Norris of stupidity?
Oops.
Hello hello hello. What’s going on ‘ere then?
Good morning! I think I just messed up a funny comment with my name fails. Why are you at 2%? Did you have 60 Birthdays in the last days?
I’ve caught stupidity from somewhere I guess. Apparently Lou’s been slipping pills in my coffee. Why were you a Dragon?
I answered a question yesterday which wasn’t directed at me. And forgot about the name change, as usual. I would make the dumbest lab rat in the history of lab rats. Red button – bzzzzt – ouch!, Red button – bzzzzt – ouch!, Red button – bzzzzt – ouch!, Red button – bzzzzt – ouch!…
Apparently yesterday was ‘Ask Avis’ day. Emoom had a question to ask but I don’t think they ever did ask it. Who do we ask things today?
I think you’ve just destroyed Russia by pressing that red button.
Ask NO_BAMA down there. He has answers. Not wisedom, but answers.
And sorry about that, Russia.
Could have been worse, blown up anywhere else and you could have taken Cambodia out too!
And taking Cambodia out means taking out Germany, Japan and China…
…and everybody they’ve ever dated…
Maybe he’s been skimmed.
Someone skimmed 98% of the Moomin? People normally take the icing and leave the cake…
They left only the tophat.
They took the bottom hat? Hope they’re gentle!
Is that an asshat implication?
*tastes*
Nup.
That’s more than half!
Nothing says moron FAIL like a typical internet “genius” who, to prove how stupid someone/something is, shows that they get their vast knowledge from SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE. Facts don’t really matter to mindless liberals so it’s ok.
PS, when she said you can see Russia from Alaska, she was J O K I N G,
you know, like when the retard “President” compared himself….to retards.
Does that mean she actually CAN’T see Russia from Alaska? Liar!
.
Oh, and you suck.
Why have you told me to come down here to talk to someone you reckon sucks. Do you not like me anymore?
I do! I thought you might have fun with this humor-free radical. At least he HAS answers…
You’re just trying to get rid of me now you’re ankle is on the mend and you’re free to frolic as you please!
I’m onto you Arthur.
NOOOOO!
*grabs Moomins ankle*
See?
*falls over*
Why I oughta!
*grabs Arthur’s ankles*
Maybe that’ll learn ya!
*tries to keep his eyes open for the inevitable photo*
*makes rabbit ears behind his head*
I think we get to be foolish all by ourselves today. Everyone’s left us dangling as it were.
How foolish do I feel by DrB’s timing?
As ffolish as I look?
Oops. -f, +o
I was poised like a hunting dog…until just before I sensed you going for the ‘Add comment’ button…
.
I nearly had a misfire when you fiddled with your belly button though.
*adds picture of this ridiculous scene to her collection* Not the funniest moment I’ve captured but it’ll do for today.
Hey McFail! *SQUEEZE*
Erm… failblog is eating my comments again. Hi mr. cuddles!! *SQUEEZES*
Almost… it’s only 10:30 here, I like to wait until noon at least (except on Friday’s of course)
It’s only 9:30 here. It’s never too early for a drink. That’s what mimosas are for
Sarah Palin never said she could see Alaska from her house. Tina Fay did. Palin did claim that Alaska being NEIGHBORS to Russia geographically gave her some sort of experience in international diplomacy, which was far more stupid and NOT a joke, she was attempting a serious answer to an interview question that she was not qualified to answer, as it seems.
Tina merely took the idiocy and made it funny.
So you think Germany is in cambodia?
You go, gal. I’ll just say I think Fey made it funn[i]ier[/i] and not just “funny.”
What the-?
*shakes fist at HTML fail-demons!*
You have to use the greater than / less than signs. If these show up, they’re > and <, respectively.
At least he didn’t get it wrong.
I’m not super country smart, but my guess is none of them are wrong… maybe
You indeed are not super country smart.
sarcasm fail
reality fail
Your on some prime reality estate there.
It’s “You’re.” Not “Your.”
Thank you!
It’s “Thankee kindly young sirrah.” not “Thank you!”.
It’s “Do you have anything funny to say?” not “Thank you”.
It’s “Hanko Sheddyfoo” Elvis style not “Thank you”.
Do you have anything funny to say? :p
Me? No.
Hee!
*squeeze*
Remember: When you make a trip to the super country mart, shop smart. Shop S-Mart!
I am smart, I am smart, S-M-R-T smart!
In Soviet Russia It got YOU right
….in Cambodia
Japan was in Cambodia? O_O
*FUSIOOOON*
isnt cambodja a place on saturn?
Holst it right there…my favourite is Jupiter.
Pluto is no longer a planet. Poor Pluto.
WTF? A planet? Pluto has always been a dog! :S
Is it not so that I’m am not mistaken or not?
I don’t think not.
You is not make nothing sense fur me…
Yew do bring lots of jollity.
I looked it up. Russia IS NOT located in Cambodia. So I don’t see a problem here.
you had to look that up? where did you study, the Sarah Palin Insitute for the frozen Alaskan brain?
Wow, and you just told Portal “sarcasm fail?”
Heeey! What do you have against Sarah Palin? I bet you can’t even see Russia from YOUR house!
In Russia, Cambodia located in you?
Wow, czuhc is only at 55% capacity and you are obviously at 2%. I wonder what happened last night.
Caffeine overload (probably).
Uh oh, did Lou give them some little pills? I told him that was a bad idea.
*cries and runs away*
*pops “SQUEEZE ME!” sign on his back as he runs*
*SQUEEZES the Moomin*
*snickers*
*pops*
When Siberia will be conquered by China, Russians will move to Cambodia.
Cambodia? this is something to eat right?
Your getting it mixed up with Cam’s bodia.
It’s “You’re.” Not “Your.”
You used it twice. You force me to say it. GRAMMAR FAIL!
Yaw very kind to point that out, and yore spot-on, again!
Yew shouldn’t have oughta done that. Ewe are provoking them now.
And I thought fuzz had gone.
Is this somehow the pendant for the object group fail? As if I know, I’m only at 55% capacity.
I bet your patients are glad to know that.
The could tell…he was barely past horizontal.
Hmmm. ‘They’
*kersplortch*
That’s more than half!
Silly Aja, you knew he wouldn’t stop at half!
…way Inn?
…way way Inn?
And do it hard.
Originally they were all located in Cambodia but then there was that nasty business with Mr. Pot.
…Yep, still at 55%.
And Mr. Kettle? They were terrible namecallers.
You can’t call people names anymore. It’s politically incorrect. It’s better to just start shooting. Then you aren’t a bigot.
Does that mean you can’t use their actual names either? What happens if I want to get Steve’s attention?

The postman hasn’t been yet, that’s a non-starter.
(Mycroft would be your croft?)
Thats “you’re” not…oh wait…nevermind
*That’s…DOH
At least it was multiple choice. Imagine how hard it would be to reach the answer without some suggestions.
If start at some point in Cambodia, walk/swim to any of these countries in a straight line, and then go on in that direction, you will be back in Cambodia eventually. This means that all of these countries are enclaves within Cambodia.
0.0
Cambodia has us surrounded?
*surrenders*
Are those tighty whities you’re waving there?
*twangs pants at DrB*
Wedgie want to do that for?
When you search for “Cambodja, Russia”, “Cambodja, Japan” etc. Germany is actually the only place not found in Cambodja…
Is this a non-competitive scholastic test – to go along with the non-competitive sports events in US schools in which ‘everybody wins’?
If this is supposed to be the Fail of Day, I fear for what’s coming next.
If we’re lucky, the title is the fail. Then the next post will be amazingly amazing.

My degree is in proper English, not countries, so I really wouldn’t know.
Is that answer E?
what about the embassies,
when russia don’t have a embassy in cambodia.
the area of a embassy is an exklave of the belonging country. so when u are in the usa and got to the embassy of mexico and ur in the building ur not onn the ground of the usa
thinkg about that

Question of the day.
Which of these items is not on the Vicar bedside table?:
A- Holy Soap.
B- The Pimp of the Vatican p0rn DVD.
C- A potato.
D- ET’s finger toy.
I see you’ve received my package, honey.
I’m going to go with answers A, C, & D. They all seem to be missing and the Vicar is squirming a bit.
The fail here is that Cambodia is a country, and all the answers are countries
Funnyboi! You’re back!
I know! It’s weird…
Which of these countries was not eaten by Cambodia, after it discovered Russia to have been declared independent thereof?
a. Lichtenstein
b. San Marino
c. Vatican City
d. Monaco
This one is a lot easier today! They are all countries!
Guys, I’m afraid it’s true. Cambodia is rapidly taking over the world without us realizing it.
I think the question should’ve been “Which of the following countries’ embassies is not located in Cambodia?”
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_embassy#Embassies
http://www.embrusscambodia.mid.ru/
Russia most definitely has an embassy in Cambodia.
I am going to put this page on the failblog.com front page for Comment Fail.
Bah. This questionmakerupperperson obviously has never been to the Russian Market in Phnom Penh. Also, it is said that the Russian Mafia is the true owner of Kaoh Pos (Snake Island) in the Sihanoukville area. Former resident declares epic failitude. Russia is so totally in Cambodia. Russians kh’nong p’deah, homiez!

WOW… I’m so totally notcoming back to earth for another 2,000 years. When you guys start thinking then the stories of the bible will come true!!!! BTW- Satan u owe me 115bucks cause we bet on the ncaa tournament.
This was a question from one of those No Child Left Behind tests right?
Could it be that all these countries have colonized cambodia except for Russia?
DUHHH!
Japan controlled Cambodia for a short period during WWII; China has periodically conquered Cambodia throughout history; idk about Germany though. They could have helped with the Japanese occupation maybe?
Useful post… I just got many idea. I am looking for SAP Job and hope got one soon. I just came across your site and wanted to say that I’ve really enjoyed reading your posts. In any case I’ll be subscribing to your feed.Regards
wow…okay americans
england is a country
so is scotland

so is ireland and north of ireland
uk is what you call a Kingdom, since the old mother here rules over all but republic of ireland
how do i know this? i’m ENGLISH and is taught about ENGLAND
and england does have laws, have you not heard of english courts with the grandmom wig thingy? or constitution? magna carter? gorden brown? tony blair? parliament? ring a bell now?
for fail blog lookers, you guys sure are dumb
and great Britain is basically the big bit, eng+scot+wales, where lesser britain is…well, there is no such thing
and the UK is United, like usa, but just smaller
british isles are just islands grouped together, like some islands like to be called the same thing
Oh yeah, I forgot. New York is also a country.
