ROFL!
It was discovered on a space mission that a frog can throw up. The frog throws up it’s stomach first, so the stomach is dangling out of it’s mouth. Then the frog uses it’s forearms to dig out all of the stomach’s contents and then swallows the stomach back down again.
Don’t get it.
Even don’t get the fail o.o
hint: there are 2 billboards.
*heads for the coffee bean & tea leaf*
I’ll get something to wake up Christin. Strong and black you reckon?
BMW WIN!!??
+1 ^ more of a win than a fail.
I hate to say it, but this is a bloody win.
I agree, definitely a win. Best.Billboard.Placement.Ever!
hear hear!
is this a coincidence or were the billboards intentionally placed there
I’m just guessing, but i think they were both planted at the same time, just that the larger billboard was watered and fertilized better.
just a guess, but i’d say both billboards were planted at the same time, but the larger one was better watered and fertilized.
I’m just guessing, but I bet you forgot to hit “show all.” ^
I’m just guessing, but I think you’re probably right.
Although I do agree with Spooky about the water and fertilizer.
I agree with you and Spooky about the water and fertilizer, or perhaps my wife planted the Audi sign. She can kill a cactus.
I can kill a tumbleweed.
This is why all the plants in my house are plastic.
Fertilizer?
What kind?
audi did it first
and then bmw saw audis and so the got mad
This is more of a WIN than anything really.
The title of the fail works.
It’s Audi Billboard Fail.
Alternately, and perhaps more appropriately, though no less accurately, this could have been titled BMW Billboard Win.
Hope that clears up any confusion that may remain.
Have a great weekend, and drink more beer.
Now just wait a minute.
I need to see that flowcharted, if you’d be so kind. There’s just too much cornfusion remaining at this point.
I need a powerpoint presentation.
I want to see pie charts! Nothing is official without pie charts.
And statistics!
I really think it’s a bit hasty to call this issue resolved though. I believe we need to convene a focus group to study the fail/win question more carefully.
No one will really get it without at least three venn diagrams, and a full psychological profile of the average Fail Blog user.
Forget the piecharts. I just need pie.
Audi plants billboard to showcase the Audi A4, but BMW responds with the BMW 3-Series Coupe.
http://jalopnik.com/5212994/whats-audis-billboard-response
Later, Audi releases a new billboard showing a darkened image of the Audi R8.
http://jalopnik.com/5216535/bmw-vs-audi-audi-responds-with-another-billboard-salvo
What do you think?
Neither- Its an obvious ‘shop.
How do you place a billboard accidentally? Oops, there goes another billboard
Obviously the Audi one was there first, and a quick thinking advertising guru can up with the “opposite” board (the white “piece” and black background).
BMW have a history of pwning other car makers over the years:

http://ettf.net/wp-content/uploads/2006/12/bmw-jaguar.jpg (subtle, look what the cat is doing on the hood)
*cue facepalm*
I wouldn’t put it past a bored billboard-placement official to have intentionally put it there
doesn’t look like a coincidence to me
BMW intentionally used the billboard, as a reply to Audi :3
Well a billboard simply saying Checkmate. wouldn’t have made much sense on it’s own…
well it sort of would, because checkmate is a common term, and car companies are always competing , so its like saying “haha, i just owned all of you guys cause this car is awesome,” except eloquently.
lol
it was a contest/challenge from audi.
The Audi billboard was up first – my hubby drives by this on his way to work. BMW put theirs up second.
Audi was placed at this location about 6 months ago. BMW Santa Monica placed theirs around 2 or 3 months ago. Audi was pretty cool when it came out. but BMW totally owned them in response.
I hope that’s sarcasm..
intentions are detected.
Love your picture!!!
It is ultimately a win though, isn’t it
ha! ha! ha!
is that really a necessary question?
guess what raptorJesus, you are just fail in general
yea bmw placed the billboard there like 2 months later in response
Probably placed there by BMW after the audi.This is win on BMW’s part.
Looks like Audi was trying a campaign that normall would work (comparable vehicles) and then someone at BMW (who should be getting a big bonus) trumped it.
Intentionally.
Audi and BMW have been having a feud-type thing going on for a while, including billboards, tv ads, magazine ads, and others.
It’s quite amusing
think about it…just think
Coincidence. Definitely.
Gosh, do you think the advertising industry might actually analyze and plan? Nah, people pay them millions of dollars to stick any old billboard any old place. Surely.
Intentionally.
the billboard for bmw was purposely placed there
I’m thinking Audi went first…
1 move checkmate…………………………nice
no wait a second I got this:
BMW made both
they did legallly say BMW on the first billboard didn’t they…
…[awkward silence]…
…or maybe not…i think…
Umm.. yes.
i think if it was intentional audi would sue, BMW WIN
What happened is that audi posted their (smaller) billboard first, and then BMW put theirs up so they could one-up audi.
oh, I forgot… FIRST!!!
absolutely agree!
Epic Billboard Riposte
You’re all wrong, the ‘FAIL’ is clearly placed next to the failing billboard, not the winning billboard. Use your eyes folks.
Well the title is AUDI billboard fail. Not BMW billboard win.
I agree this is a win not a fail
The BMW billboard is the work of my coworker’s girlfriend. Well played indeed.
so your coworker’s girlfriend is the fail…i get it now
haha, yes, yes she is
Notice it’s an Audi fail…
That is a fail.
Now THIS is a win:
http://www.scoobyblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/12/bentley.jpg
I think the “fail” was referring to the smaller audi billboard,
was a BMW win!
Its both a Win and a Fail, an ultimate fail on audis part, but teh best win ive ever seen on BMWs part (no matter how much that hurt to say!)
It’s a BMW Win, but a failure for Audi for not seeing that coming.
It’s still a FAIL for Audi.
it’s a fail and a win
BMW wins and audi fails
yea bro
Yep, Yep. Needs to point out both. BMW Win, Audi Fail.
I think this is more of a pwn.
More of a pwn because the M3 is not in the same class as the advertised audi. Clever ad though.
i agree. definate win.
I agree… does any1 no wat street this is on??? I think I might live by there
BMW WIN should be the title methinks.
Eic Win
looks like a photoshop will to me (–> oversized billboard)
looks like a photoshop win to me (–> oversized 2nd billboard)
agreed
thank you. I agree thats a major win!
Without a doubt a win!
Agreed. BMW WIN.
well since bmw and audi is practically the same, since it’s part of the same stock market thingy..
i think ” both” won XD
this is a juxtaposition win!
Nope.
BMW and Audi are mortal enemies, in a business sense, as well as an owner sense. Not at all the same thing.
But what about the fact that they are both part of the same stock market thingy?
They aren’t.
Audi is part of VW which is largely owned by Porsche.
BMW has nothing to do with it.
Thanks for clearing that up. I was mocking me, me, me with my comment, and to some extent shiatis who wasted their time responding to me, me, me’s comment.
Lol – you have really put the cat out there Starfish
.
Looks like pigeons can’t read past the previous level of nesting.
what about Porsche is largely (if not totally) owned by VW?
well, they aren’t!
Audi is part of the Volkswagen Group, BMW is a completely differnet corporation
no they’re traded on the same market….. theres a BIG difference
Starfish WTF?
Starfish gets it on with the Wookie a lot. I hope Mrs. Starfish is ok with this.
The only ‘stock market thingy’ BMW (ticker symbol BMW.DE) and AUDI (ticker symbol VOW.DE) are part of is an EXCHANGE.
BMW billboard: Epic win.
Audi billboard: Fail.
Starfish subject-matter knowledge: Fail.
Dude, you mean the stock market? Then Alcoa and Coca Cola are the same as BMW and Audi.
That’s just you not having the slightest clue about that thingy.
Starfish, I find it absolutely HIGH-larious that all these people think that you are the dumbass here.
Don’t worry. We get it.
*squeeze*
Yep, nothing trips up the lurkers more than sarcasm detection.
If you’re trying to say they’re owned by the same parent company, I’m pretty sure they aren’t. Audi is owned by Volkswagon, while BMW is the parent company for Rolls-Royce, among others. They’re both German companies, but that’s the same thing as claiming that Ford and GM are the same because they’re both American, or Honda and Toyota because they’re both Japanese.
They are not!
Audi belongs to Volkswagen AG while BMW stands for itsels ( BMW AG)
So.. They are Enemies and yes this ad is awesome..
Although I like Audi better
I just want to point out that BMW=Audi. It’s the exact same thingy.
Audi = Volkswagen (or Porsche actually)
BMW = BMW
So yes, they are the biggest enemies there are
MOre info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_industry#Top_vehicle_manufacturing_groups_.28by_volume.29
where exactly do you get your facts from? Your heiney?
thats not true.
Audi belongs to the Volkswagen company and Porsche holds
more than 50 % of VW stocks.
But BMW is a company for its own – not owned by any other firm .
in particual.
You should check your facts again, they are not made from the same parts. Maybe your thinking about Audi, Volkswagen and Skoda, they are all the same more or less.
they are not.
they simply arent.
both companies have their origins in bavaria, germany. but while audi belongs to VW (audi owns lamborghini btw), bmw is an independent company.
and they really are mortal enemies, because audi is digging off bmws clients massively in the last years.
Yeah.. that vague, unreferenced statement is all the proof I need.
If you mean that they are both german companies, yes they are, the same as McDonald’s and Burguer King are both US companies.
These are automobile manufacturers groups. German origins involved in the groups are with three stars after the name:
-Volkswagen***, Audi***, SEAT, Škoda, Lamborghini, Porsche***, MAN***, Scania, Bentley, and Bugatti on one side.
-BMW*** and Rolls Royce on another side… (interesting taking into consideration that both companies literally fought against each other for better airplane motors in WWII)
-Mercedes-Benz***, Maybach, Smart* and Freightliner on another side… (Smart only one star because the original idea was from Swatch)
-Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, GMC, GM Daewoo, Holden, Hummer, Opel***, Pontiac, Saab, Saturn, Vauxhall and Wuling on another side…
And can’t think of any other “group” that has german manufacturers in it, but as you see: Audi and BMW are NOT in the same stock market “thingy”.
They aren’t. Audi is a subsidiary of Volkwagen Group, BMW is independent.
stock market thingy? starfish intelligence FAIL
God above. She was being humorous. Try reading a bit more.
the fact that you’re calling it a thingy makes you immediately an unreliable source of nonsense. BMW is in no way part of Audi. Audi is part of the Volkswagen group….and BMW is it’s own company.
Audi is owned by VW…and BMW is independent. They’re not related
at all. The only things they have in common is they’re both German, and
they both sell luxury cars. Which makes them competitors.
GEEZUS they are both in the same stock market, you find Audi firmly wtih VW Skoda Bently ect, BMW are there own company who own names such and mini cooper and land rover (which they used to develop there 4×4 such as the X5)
Fail
FAIL
They’re not part of the same listed company, so I can only assume you mean they’re both on the same stock market. If every company on the stock market was thus considered part of the same company then pretty much the whole world would be controlled by one big monopoly and we’d all be f*cked.
LOL awesome comment.
their not at all part of “the same stock market thingy” dumbass. their seüerate entities and just because they both trade on the stock market doesn’t mean theri “the same”, try telling that to a Audi or BMW dealer, they kick your ass right out the front door
Financial knowledge FAIL!! In Xetra, BMW’s symbol is BMW and Audi’s symbol is NSU.
They are not. Audi belongs to VW (Volkswagen) and BMW is on its own. Where Do you take this information from?
The hell you talking about “stock market thingy”. They are two separate companies. They are both German companies, but that’s like saying GM is the exact same as Ford just because they are American companies.
They’re not, Audi is owned by VW
What fact?

http://www.finanzen.net/nachricht/UPDATE_Audi_rueckt_naeher_an_Rivalen_BMW_und_Mercedes_heran_885747
idiot
audi is vw
bmw is on its own
They’re not. Audi belongs to the Volkswagen group, BMW is its own company…
understanding of life FAIL
Audi and BMW are most likely placed in the same “stock market thingy” as you put it because these are supposed to be measures of the economy. So if some business from Audi goes to BMW, the “stock market thingy” will be the same, indicating that there’s been no gross change in high end car value. Neither company is particularily invested in the entire “stock market thingy” going up; they are more interested, in, you know, the ACTUAL MONEY they get from making more sales.
You, sir, are an idiot.
Audi and VW are the same company but are not in any way affiliated with BMW
and to say so would tarnish the name of Audi,
cause Audi’s are way better than BMW’s
sorrey to correct u but they’re not part of the same ‘market thingy’, AUDI is part of Volkswagen and BMW still is owned privately, but its still a definate double win
great minds working there 
wtf are you talking about?? “BMW and Audi is practicall the same”..
Are apples and bananas the same?
Is meat and fruits the same?
Is milk and beer the same?
Is your mum and your daddy the same person?
do you pull your facts straight out of your keister?
not the same. bmw and audi are not the same. audi is “volkswagen” and bmw is bmw. !!!
BMW and Audi are not part of the same “stock market thingy” Audi is part of the Volkswagen group, along with Skoda and Seat (and bugatti – but that’s more of just another name for VW cause it’s cooler), BMW merely comes from the same country as audi (and also VW and Merc).
BOTH won?! Ummm, did u notice a difference in size? I doubt Audi would agree to that XD
both billboards were set on porpuse, thats clever advertising, epic win for the advertising agency because now a lot of more people see that shit, epic fail for failblog
You’re thinking of Audi and VW.
FAILED
BMW and Audi are rivals.
Audi belong to teh same group as Bently, VW, and erm COUGHskodaCOUGH BMW is definetly not part of the same group, bentley factory near me got a load of friends in there they get company cars and that cant get a BMW as its a completely different company!
They most definitely are NOT part of the same “thingy,” which I assume you mean parent company. Audi is a division of Volkswagen Group, while BMW IS a parent company (they own Rolls-Royce and MINI).
Sorry, I really needed to correct your misinformation, don’t hate me.
What does this even mean? They are 2 different companies.
NEVER
This is across the street from my job. I’m glad someone put this up here.
definitely BMW win.
I agree, this isn’t an Audi Fail, It’s a BMW WIN. Baller…
For every fail there is a win.
Nah… So you mean Audi WINS? because you said it’s not FAIL.
this aint a winblog. this is a failblog.
as the caption says… “Audi” Billboard Fail.
This is a definitely a win
total bmw win
BMWin?
my thoughts exactly!
dis is one hellish win! freakin awesome!!!! wins hands down, mate!
AUDI – fail , BMW – win
fail 4 audi tho, but the m3 is MUCH betr
I think my mom used to work there.
One is a audi billboard saying your move and the other is a bmw billboard saying checkmate
i think its nice marketing and i dont get why its a fail
its okay i didnt get it at first either look at the left one then the right one
QFT “hint: there are 2 billboards” <– WIN
… Of different companies. You, my sir, just had a fail.
Pretty big BMW win, if you ask me.
The car in the further one is an audi.
No no…it’s an inny.
*golf clap*
Nice one, Malicite.
That was hilarious….Thank you! I haven’t wet my pants in a long time!!
*tosses Muse a ShamWow™*
*scootches away from Muse*
You’re a little too happy about that…
that was to much info
I haven’t either.
Funniest thing I heard all day.
Almost made me squirt yogurt out my nose
Hell Malicite…I did squirt yogurt
Also laughed at your joke a fair bit.
Well done for recycling 10 year old Family Guy jokes. Bravo. Whats your next trick?
That would be hilarious if it was pronounced as ou-di but it audi;
as in au-dio, au-thentic, au-tistic….
FAIL!!!
Wow, you are an idiot.
The Audi billboard went up first, saying “Your move, BMW,” and showing their new car.
BMW replied with a picture of their new car and the word “Checkmate.”
Audi fail, BMW Epic win.
how do you not get the fail. the Audi ad says, “Your move, BMW.” and the BMW ad says, “Checkmate”. meaning if they were to be playing a game of chess the BMW ad would have won. so in other words, BMW thinks they would beat an Audi in low coasts, horsepower and looks. which is completely false when it comes to the Audi S4 and BMW M3. when the Audi S4 can BEAT and M3 in looks, performance and speed… never mind. you probably don’t even know what I’m talking about.
its very simple….on the audi commercial ( the first one ) they ask for BWM to make its move.. and bmw replies as their move is ”checkmate” which stands as the end of the game, right?:) ..no more game:) bmw wins big time
Seems that Audi probably put their billboard up first, challenging BMW to top their fancy little car. Then I can see Santa Monica BMW rising to the challenge and adding their ‘checkmate’ billboard. Fail on Audi, Win on BMW. Understand?
How can you not get this fail???
its right in front of you
look at the other billboard. It’s an audi and it says “your move, bmw. Bmw put up a bigger one and said “checkmate” (it’s like a chess game, you know? remember when audi said “your move”?)
the big billboard is really big & the other 1 is like five times smaller!!! DUH!
there are two bilboards, two different car companies
the little one was first and says “your move bmw”
so bmw sets up their bilboard bigger than the other and says “checkmate”
..its a play on chess terms.
it’s so clever! i love it
here it is in English:
Audi shows off the A4 and says BMW, “it is your move” (in other words saying man BMW you can’t do anything)
BMW puts forward the 3series and says “checkmate”
whoever came up with this tooootally made baaank with the idea
uhhhhh…..
think about chess
The small Audi billboard was first, saying “your move” to BMW. So BMW got a bigger billboard to say “checkmate”; ie, we won the game.
Seen in conjunction, it’s a FAIL for Audi. If they are clever, they’ll continue the campaign with a clever rebuttal.
the audi billboard was challenging bmw by advertising their A4, so BMW made a billboard that is about 3 times bigger than audi’s with a picture of BMW’s car and said “checkmate” as a way of saying, “hey, you told us to make a move, and we did. and we did it well.” LOL. and it’s audi’s fail. the “fail” caption is right above the audi billboard. you really gotta be an idiot not to get this. you fail
this isnt a fail at all the audi billboard says your move bmw as in refering to chess then bmw replys with checkmate this isnt a fail but i believe the people who thought this was a fail are failures themselves
More like a WIN.
The Advert on the left is for an ADUI, the one on the right is a BMW. If you can’t work the rest out then… welll.. tough!
lol loser… the smaller audi sign says “your move, BMW”
and the HUGE BMW sign says “checkmate” as in they’ve won koz its bigger n shit
you are dumb then it is an obvious one there are two billboards and audi is telling bmw that they should try yo top the car that audi just made. in return bmw put out a billboard saying checkmate as in a game of chess when you win
The Audi is fail, the pic as a whole is not a fail.
Audi’s billboard says Your move BMW. BMW’s billboard says Checkmate. Like chess.
it should be called BMW Win
Audi has “Your move, bmw!” written on his poster…
and BMW has replyed: “Checkmate!” Checkmate is the finall move in the game called chess.. You understand now? xD
Small sign: BMW’s move.
Big sign: Checkmate.
BMW made it’s move and won.
the small billboard to the left is from the audi dealership, it says “your move BMW.”
the much larger billboard to the right says “checkmate.” witch is a term in chess witch means the king (witch is the most important piece in the game, if it dies you lose) can not move without dying so it is basically BMW telling audi that they just lost.
Fail? That was a WIN !
for one, the BMW M3 destroys the audi A4, plus audi called out bmw and bmw made a way bigger billboard.
welll then ur stupid
thats because you are stupid
WTF!
Owned.
actually, it’s probably just a lease.
you made me lol…
That’s….uh….interesting, Joe. Why don’t you go tell all the good folks over at ICHC? kthxbai
Typical troll, copy and paste some boring useless information, while adding a retarded word covering his “first’ line, just to get a first place.
Now I am veeeeeeery amused.
Jealous?
:lol!
No, not jealous, has common sense.
You do whine a lot…
I laughed at this. Sorry, Jason.Ninjas are now sorry too?
Why is everyone so pissy about people trying to get first? Even if they don’t actually say “first” you guys STILL complain. Why not just ignore the post? It’s not detrimental to your health or anything, really.
What the hell does frogs puking have to do with the billboard? Idiot.
You don’t see the relevance???
C’mon, really?
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Yeah, me neither…
okay, first of all you read too many books involving cats. and second of all… what in the hell are you babbling your bigmouth about?! what you are talking about has NOTHING to do with the ad.
They found that out in space???? I saw that in my backyard years ago!
What a waste of money…..
Check out this link. Its a reply to BMW’s billboard. Firstly, Audi didn’t fail, BMW is using their top of range 3 series against a regular A4. This already shows that BMW is bringing the wrong car to the wrong match. And since BMW started, Audi brings the R8 along (link http://www.autoblog.com/2009/04/17/billboard-war-redux-audi-shoots-back-bmw-turns-away/) and there are no car BMW currently making that can match the R8. So… BMW is failing in this one.
lloooool
i really think it shouldn’t have been a fail. I think its pretty cool to have two signs like that across from one another saying that
As a person who just bought a BMW last week this makes me smile.
This is a WIN. Nick C, you should just put a picture of yourself next time instead of showing off your stupidity.
win!
Sucks to be a sick frog
you guys and your fail stuff is really lame.
Killed a king with a “pwn”!!
ROTGLOL
More like a double win!!!

Formula One is more fun anyways. At least you can do more than make left hand turns.
(new clicky, btw)
I clicked. I watched. I howled.
BTW – what’s with those guys and the pudding fetish?
Aand at the risk of sounding old and out of touch, what show is that from?
Judy and Kannadzuki, the $240 worth of pudding is their most famous sketch. It even made it on the top 100 greatest comedy sketches list. The show is The State. MTV owns it, and they put all of the episodes on DVD to sell, and then shelved it. It’s my favorite show.
I remember the $240 sketch – you had a clicky to that, I think? I’ll have to watch YouTube this weekend to check out others. Those Guys Are Funny.
You should! It was a fantastic sketch comedy. Search for The State MTV, Barry and Levon, and Michael Showalter. Those shoulg give you the most links. There are hundreds of the short clips online. The official website is the-state.com (I won’t link it so that FB won’t eat it).
Nice new clickie, velvet! Are these guys from SNL or something? And did anyone catch references other than Mork and Mindy and My Mother the Car? (btw I used to love Mork and Mindy when I was a kid!)
If you loved Mork and Mindy when you were a kid, how the heck do you know about My Mother the Car??? I didn’t think that ever got syndicated.
I never got to watch MMtC. I just heard about it from someone. I did get to trailer of odd TV shows that never made it past the pilot in a film class once. I found the part of it that had my class in stitches on Youtube:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opFJbB1IU58

And while I’m at it, what the heck is going on? Somehow my link got turned into a video. Never saw that happen before. Since it doesn’t fit on the screen, try clicking here instead.

That’s some serious blog mojo you have going on there!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!

Yup. Look for that to be corrected real soon.
How did she do that?!? Amazing!
I love that billboard!!!
I just like it as a friend. :/
Make sure you keep it that way, missy.
Gotta have standards, ya know?

You know it!
Wait, I don’t think that reflected on me very well…..
Don’t worry – snorks bounce more than reflect.

Where are my 72 virgins?!?
According to Boris, the bomb didn’t go off so you can’t have them.
And if you want the mom to go off, it’s best to go with some experience.
Are you my virgins?
I hope not- there’s an awful lot of dudes here
hey there
*sigh-dles over with ZombieApocalypse and DrB*
*arrives fashionably late*
Too soon.
Is the party over here now?
PWND
That was pretty good for a rookie… Nice!
*bows to the king*
No, not king…I just like to horse around.
*looks around*
*pouts*
*offers Admiral a temporary crown*
Nah…that would look silly on him.
He looks much better wearing dragon-hide instead.
*wraps limbs around the Admiral*
*sees to your kneads*
Ay…there’s the rub…
*purrrs*
BMWD?
lol
You dragons are multiplying.
And this little one is cute
Speaking of which, is Dragonwriter here? Or too sick?
Much too sick. But still here.
Thanks for asking, though!
*squeeze!*
Sick? Didn’t know. I hope it’s nothing serious. Get well soon!
*squeeze*
Thanks, Arthur. I’ll be right as rain in no time.
*SQUEEEZE*
get well soon!
Me, too, sweetie!
*squeeze!*
*squeeze!*
If you say that like its supposed to be pronounced. You get BONED!
Roffle! BMW WIN!
Great avatar!
Thanks. I really did look like that as a kid!
Good! Kids should be happy!
An EPIC win actually.
Well I guess the BMW would beat the Audi considering it’s about 4 times as big.
“BMW: We crush the competition!”
It’s a BMW win instead!
i second that!
I second that!
I second THAT!
I square that, put strawberry jam on it, and eat it
*backs away*
Hey, this is like the time I freaked out because there was this guy whose name was Dragonslayer. I recommend hiding in a tree. He’ll never look there!!!
Don’t go in the damp, smelly tree, Jam. It was…uh…used in the last fail.
My bad.
Jam’s on the brakes, and throws it into reverse.
*appears to be in a jam*
*picks up a guitar and starts jamming*
peanut butter’s on the gas pedal. but it’s a yugo, you can eat in those.
Comment win!
ROFL! BMW WIN! Audi Fail.
*stares at board*
*throws table over*
*decks the BMW*
*hands Aja a lemonade*

It’s ok. Just relax.
Hhhnnnnnnnnggg..
Ah… thanks.
You’re smelcome. (or was it swelcome? Now I can’t remember…)
Doesn’t matter. You’re swell anyway.
Well, thanks! I do try! *squeeze*
Better to be swell than smell.
Unless you smell rillyrilly good!
AVIS!!!! Hey, didn’t think you would make it today. Welcome. Hope your guests and you are having fun.
Just here and there for me blogging today. My guests are napping. I made them walk about 5 miles today.
I take it they aren’t used to/prepared for a long walk?
Not by a long shot. To be fair, I’m a bit sore too, but not fast asleep.
what’s with the squeezing?
BMW Billboard WIN. Advertising doesn’t get much more effective than this.
So is this really is a win also for BMW. Isn’t it?
Most definitely!
*borrows the extra “is” for later use*
Doh! *facepalm*
Well thank you. Cookie?
*offers plate of cookies that has a label “All may have two, and any infraction will be followed by excruciating torture. This includes dragons too.“
Why, yes, cookies would be delightful! Thanks, I’ll have two.
*writes reminder to self to keep an eye on the cookie plate in case dragon comes by – could be entertaining*
*snork!* Oh, I think aki’s label is accurate…excruciating torture will follow.
Well I do have a plan. My only hope is that it works on dragons as well. If not… I’d you guys to have my life savings. There is a whole $5.12 (US) in there. You guys figure out the distribution.
*throws ‘like’ ^ into the sentence.*
Well like I do have like a plan. My only like hope is that it like works on like dragons as well. If not…like I’d like you guys to like have my life savings. There is like a whole $5.12 (US) in there. You guys like figure out the distribution.

I saved you some… I wouldn’t forget the Dragon, just couldn’t let you gobble them all up until the rest had their chance.

Tanks, hun. I think only one today, though. I’m still feeling pretty miserable.
*munch*
*snuggles*
Aaaaaaaaahhh. I needed that.
*cuddles*
It’s a win for anyone that understands how to play chess. Everyone else is going, ‘Huh?”

*smooch* again
*SQUEEZE and a SMOOCH*
Hello there. How is your Friday?
Well, we’ve had all the doors locked today because an irate former employee was coming up here to pick up their last check and ‘finish some business’ here.

How’s your Friday coming along?

*snuggles with aikiwaza under my desk*
*Being fuzzy and cuddly helps the snuggles…

My Friday is great. No work to do really, put a sign at my desk saying that I am out to lunch and have referred those with problems to that sign (even though I am sitting right here), it’s sunny out, and a moderate temperature. Only thing that would make it better is if you were here…. buddy
Awwww, thanks. :blush:
VERY NICE!!!

Not to worry; it will all become perfectly clear.
Unless of course it’s gray and NOT clear.
Wait, but it’s my car, I can call it what I want, no?

As long as you steer clear of the Naming Nazis, then yes.

Sorry I left you hanging, Judy. *hug*

*walks by thread inconspicuously*
HI ALL!!!!
*continues walking towards the restaurant for lunch*
*POUNCE* Well hello there!!!
Doh!
Hi there…sorry bout the salad all over you.
I love when advertising works!
Just like BMW does everything, they overdid this advertisement. The audi pictured is a standard a4 which would never compete with the performance oriented BMW m3. The next billboard in the series would be Audi’s rocketship of an RS4 cutting quattro doughnuts around the m3′s vanquished king. More car, less inherent douchebaggery.
Yes, how dare that company cleverly advertise its product after being specifically called out? What a bunch of douchebags!
The nerve!It’s just like you living to act this way. Dead people don’t act like that (even when we’re undead!)
If they wanted to cleverly advertise their product, they would use a car in the same class as the one in the audi ad. it’s like supersoaker saying they have the best watergun in the world and then smith & wesson saying their .357 has more stopping power.
This is all well and good, but I still want Nellie’s candy-apple red Tesla. That car rocks.
Douchebaggery is a fun word!
I think I have a new favorite Fail! THAT'S F*RSTING AWESOME!!!!1!!one!Ditto!
This isn’t Audi fail, its advertising win.
This is a WIN imo LOL
it looks more like a win.
Depends on how you look at it. Half full or half empty?It would be a Audi Fail if the ad had gone up AFTER the BMW ad
WIN actually!
I agree… not an Audi fail, but rather a BMW win!
It can be both. You shouldn’t see things black and white.
graymatterz
But really, gray does matter! if we didn’t have gray then our brains would be clear!
see ^
i’m pretty sure that’s called a win
(i.e. I agree w/ iGore and mike)
haha Audi got total raped there
I excoriate you for your exiguous vocabulary.
Don’t worry about him, he is exogenous.

*sniff sniff*
What are you smoking over there, graymatterz?
Smells like extraneous exhaust.
He farted?
I know it’s been said, but that’s a Win for sure!
BMW WIN!
How on earth can that be a fail!?!? That is an incredibly epic Win!
What if it was backwards day?
It’s a NIW then.
A man, a plan, a canal, Panama
Sit on a potato pan, Otis
Otis the vicar?
First funny thing I’ve read on this whole thread. Thanks Arthur.
My First comment in failblog!
this is not fail, but BMW WIN !
*takes photo*
Please pick up your souvenir at the and of the fail. Good luck picking it out from all the others.
*files photo*
*puts another souvenir up for the next guy*
If I see one more “win” post, I’m going to cry.
Don’t scroll down, though you probably did already.
Congrats on comment #400000 AA!
Oooh, thanks! I better go change the timing belt.
Wheeee!!!
And don’t you dare! You’re timing is perfect, as always.
Thanks, dance partner.
*smoooch!*
*facepalm*
*bukkits*
I can’t believe I did that. I must be in worse shape than I thought!
That’s not as bad as the do/due error I made last week. You were kind enough to overlook that one.
I’m guilty of a here/hear. And I truly know better!
It did make me giggle, though!
*smooch*
*writes a ticket for “end” fail*
BMW Billboard WIN!!!
Holy crabcakes! Really?
Mmm… crabcakes are delicious.
As are elk burger burritos!
Mmmmm. I have venison at home in the slowcooker with black beans and rice.
*drools on keyboard*
Epic Win for BMW! Nice!
*cries*
*pat, pat, smooch*
For those who keep yelling “BMW win”:
YES WE HAVE HEARD YOU! BUT IT’S ALSO AN AUDI FAIL! GOD DAMNIT! Now keep your opinions to yourselves.
Banal Multiple WIN references?
no…Billboards at Multiple Waypoints
BMW win!
Please don’t hurt him, JasonK! He posted at the same time you did – he didn’t have a chance to read your comment. Let this one go. Thanks.
*distracts JasonK momentarily*
*starts chanting “FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT!*
*sets up “Michel Vs JasonK” betting stall*
What’re the odds???
Cut it out, you guys! You’re going to scare Michel away.
Shame on you!
*hangs head in shame*
I’m going to go to the corner now to have a time out and think about what I’ve done.
*slinks off to corner*
Blogmonster, graymatterz, you boys, too. In the corner. Shoo!
Ah damn. I was looking forward to another match with BondFan. Maybe even tea and sandwiches.
Sorry, this one’s been cancelled for a different reason. Rain.
*joins GBF in the corner*
*Pulls out Laptop…*
Look, I already got the website up and running…
SHHHH…don’t tell Judy, but we could make a killing on this. You think JasonK would take a dive?
Nah, I think Michel would be…
*looks up to see Judy’s eyes glaring like a tigress*
Er, never mind.
*shoves laptop into GBF’s backpack before Judy notices*
*crosses arms, taps foot*
Anything going on here, boys?
Didn’t think so.
Hrmph!
*is still trying to picture why we are all scared of a mad minnie mouse…*
Steps OVER Judy and goes back to play with the rest of the gang.
*whispers*
PSST! Graymatterz!
Take this $20 and put it on JasonK for the knockout.
Thanks! Don’t tell bff!
Ahem.
*taps feet and raises eyebrow*
*scratches head, wondering why Judy wants to bet on JasonK AFTER I already paid him to take a dive*
O…..
K…..
You’re name is getting longer than your comments.
*Slips a C-note to Graymatterz*
Michel… gotta support the noob.
OMG…Judy must’ve paid Michel to take a dive also.
*Watches and sees both fighters fall to the floor seconds after the bell rings, and no one has thrown a single punch.*

Now what do we do??
Thanks folks, I secretly bet both of them were losers.

*calls police to let them know that Judy currently has counterfeit money.*
*wonders if Judy knows that you can NOT buy “fake” Gucci bags with “fake” money, and the bags end up being real*
No Judy, two fakes do not make a right.
HAH! Little did you know that Judy made a switch and took the REAL money instead.
Never had real money. That’s why it was being gambled.
Hmmmph...Got my money.First Chrysler, now Audi?
^I thought this guy was banned?
*whispers*
Shhhh! There’s no one there. No one there.
Nothing’s better then a warm welcoming.
closet has been behaving admirably. I see no problem
Ey thank you, takes a great person to give anyone a second chance.
Takes a better one to not muddle it up. Best of luck to you Closet…
OK, WN, if you say so. But it’s on your head if anything goes wrong.
closet, welcome back.
What could possibly go wrong?
Thanks, I presume.
Hey, you guys – look – he winked when he said that. Probably had his fingers crossed behind his back, too!
*sqeeeeeze*
Does this mean that Closet is now out of the closet?
Well… Welcome back Closet.
I believe that it does, so to speak.
And I agree re: the welcome
As long as he isn’t on my head, like Judy said…
Well, we will show him our hospitality on your word, but his actions from here on are his own.
*looks up past comments from Closet*
I agree with WN though.
I know I sound like an ignorant fool, but might I inquire when closet redeemed himself?
No redemption was necessary; we, in our abundant magnanimousness, are just giving him a new chance. That’s because we’re a heck of a fine buncha FAILbloggers, and we hope he will be too.
I see. This is a very rare occurance. I shall watch with interest how this “second chance” turns out. If closet really does clean up his act, it would be a historical moment for Faiblog.
But not a premiere. Don’t forget JasonK.
FAILBlog- Changing trolls one at a time.
*disclaimer: In case studies side effects did occur in trolls who changed. These side effects may include: making friends, being popular, increased intelligence, laughing more, less sarcastic comments made about them, or curing ED.

Good! Now I don’t need to hide in the dresser if I need to! Small spaces are bad enough, but i will not share one with another person(yes, I am claustrophobic).
So, you are saying seven minutes in heaven is out of the question?
I asked Avis that the other day!!!
She said not as long as she was familiar with it. Or maybe I am misrepresenting what she said… I don’t know.
It would also make it difficult to gain membership in the “mile high club”.
This is most certainly true.
I need to be familiar with the closet, that is what I meant. And it can’t be too tiny.
Ah. Sorry for this misquote.
Hey…what are we all looking at?
*looks up too*
*shrugs*
Failblog fails for not showing Audi’s comeback.
http://www.autoblog.com/2009/04/17/billboard-war-redux-audi-shoots-back-bmw-turns-away/
That would have been funny if … well, if it was funny.
Meh.
Still, looks like Audi has the better car
it’s a bad angle, search the web and you`ll see the audi ad is also big
With the right angle you can make anything look big.
*tilts the screen*
By joves, you’re right!!!
After a careful consideration of all known facts on this matter I come to the conclusion that this is a BMW win.
I’m…shocked that you’ve come to this conclusion, Arthur. Would you care to elaborate on this?
(Guten Abend, Arthur)
I’m working on a dissertation on this. It’ll take some time.
(N’Abend! Geht’s gut?)
Is it a matter of national security? If so, you better not say anything.
Oh, and in my time zone, it’s Guten tag!
( Hmmm. No response. Wrong phrase? )
Nope… Correct phrase.
Er kann zu bett gegangen.
Guten morgen woulda been better though…
Thanks. And I have no idea what you responded. I’ve used up what little German I knew. Besides “zwei bier, bitte”
You’ll pass as a German with “guten Tag, zwei Bier bitte” for a long time. If you add “Scheiße” to your vocabulary no one will ever notice that you’re not German.
(Sorry, had to leave. Will have to go again in a couple of minutes.)
What’s “Scheiße” mean?
I’ve always been meaning to ask, which part of Germany do you come from, Arthur? Just curious.
The north. The best city on this planet, to be precise.
Hamburg?
Yep.
Ah, the cultural capital of Germany. How are things in Hamburg? Has the recession struck hard?
To be fair: one of the cultural capitals. Things are pretty good here, nice weather and all that, but the recession indeed strikes us hard. Having the largest port in Germany has its downside when global trade collapses…
Ah, but Hamburg Cathedral is one of the most beautiful buildings in the North. Magnificient piece of architecture.
You should see London in the recession. “Hang the bankers” is the phrase on everybody’s lips, and our prime minister is on his last leg. If he wins the 2010 election I will eat my shoes.
*secretly hopes Gordon Brown wins the 2010 election so he can see BFF eat his shoes*
I’m not sure which sathedral you’re refering to BFF, but we have several beautiful buildings. Plus a great night life (come to Hamburg when you’re 18! You’ll love the Reeperbahn!), high culture, lots of water, beaches, parks… I could go on for hours.
*openly hopes Gordon Brown wins the 2010 election so he can see BFF eat his shoes*
*erases ‘s’, replaces it with ‘c’
I’ll be sure to visit Hamburg when I reach that age.
Oh great. Now I have two people who want me to eat my shoes. Strange request, but it’s a democracy.
*Wants to see BFF eat his shoes but doesn’t care what triggers it*
Oooh, I would love to visit Germany. I was there when I was a baby, but that hardly counts.
Tell me when you’re here. I’ll give you a sightseeing tour and you’ll wonder why anyone wants to live elsewhere.
)
(Yes, we are VERY proud of our city!
Woo! That would be awesome!!
It was.
Lived there from 75-78. Army wife. Oldest two children born there. Very ashamed that I was so young and stupid that I cared more about being homesick than enjoying the marvelous opportunity {that I wasted.}
Frankfurt a.M. 1 year
Steinbach, a.M., Neiderhochstrasser Str., 2 years.
Ah, the memories.
Arthur, you do indeed have a beautiful country.
I would love to go back, now that I have the wisdom to appreciate it.
Ah yes, fond memories of my limited time in southern Germany. Hope to get up north one of these days. Spectacular scenery, history, culture, and most of all, great people.
I see no conclusive evidence that supports this. It’s all circumstantial.
Everybody knows, that Audi is building the best cars in germany no metter what stupid Bilboards BMW uses… Guys! they do rear-drive -.-
They drive what in whos rear
…BMW does rear-wheel drive, too -_-
HELLO audi R8?!?!, that is not a BMW Win, its going to be a fail
I think dylan does have a point.
FAILBLOG SUCKS…one bill board is 100 yards closer to the picture taker. FAILBLOG SUCKS
I do believe you missed the point here….
It’s referring to the…nevermind.
Not NEARLY as much as chris does, though.
Your ridiculous little opinion has been noted – stop by any time
Why is it written “BMW” on the Audi ad ??
seriously…??
*double facepalm*
My thoughts exactly….
Yes seriously! Here I don’t use to see the name of a brand on another brand ad,
(and excuse me for my bad understanding level in english…)
If you are serious do to not understanding, maybe I can help. The Audi ad is trying to directly compare themselves to BMW, saying they are better and challenging BMW. It would be similar to a McDonald ad saying “Our food is better. Take that Burger King.”
*makes his favorite point*
There are no stupid people on the internet; just really good trolls.
All people on the internet aren’t just american. I didn’t understand “Your move BMW” though i understand the words.
And thanks aki. And now I let you between sarcastic english-speaking people! ^^
Try googling “chess” to get an idea.
And I didn’t notice your comment about English. Sorry Vincent.
Don’t worry, most Americans can’t speak English either.
*hugs Vincent*
*hugs Zombie*
Woops, missed. Oh, gross!
I believe that there was a communication barrier there. The grammar was just incorrect enough in the right ways to make me think English wasn’t a common language. Either that or he is a good enough troll to deserve a response. Either way…
I think I get their point though. Until I read the comments here, I seriously thought the, “your move, BMW” was Photoshopped. That’s not really accetable advertising in Finland, and I reckon at least the rest of Northern Europe frowns upon it, too. It’s not about not getting what Audi meant, it’s about not understanding how they’d even be allowed to do that.
Apologies if you literally did not understand due to a language barrier.
Just used to questions from people being a “smartass”.
(for future reference, you may want to let us know that you don’t understand it, or why you’re asking)
Audi’s using reversed psychology in their ads.
Nothing to see here, move along move along.
Vincent must be an advertiser or a student of advertising, as he has a good point. One school of advertising thought (one I happen to agree with), is to never mention your competition by name. It’s free advertising for them, and will inspire people to make a thorough comparison. Audi absolutely opened the door for BMW in the example above, and BMW walked right in. That was an easy, easy kill.
One client of mine (ages ago, when I still did that junk) wanted to go on the warpath because a competitor ran an ad showing my client’s box being crushed by the competitors. My guy wanted to hire lawyers! Sue! Cease and desist orders! I talked him instead into sending the competitor a thank you note for the free advertising.
The ad also inspired (invited, even) critics to write comparisons into their product reviews, and the competitor lost badly.
Anyway, just sayin. I think Vincent’s English made him pose that question in a funny way. Kudos for him, though. I wouldn’t even attempt that observation in a language other than my own.
That’s more like a win. x3
*Uses telekinesis to implode Kitty’s head*
Can you open my can of soda please?
*pop*
There ya go.
Thank you, suh!
So that explains the soda can from a few years ago that was opened from the inside!
I wonder what the Mercedes billboard would say. “Chess is for nerds,” maybe?
Yea!!!!
So happy I didn’t have to hear “BMW Win” again… wait…
Damnit.
*Makes own head implode*
But seriously man…
Total BMW win.
No, really – WIN for BMW!!
Not a FAIL.
Really.
WIN.
BMW.
Yeah.
*Eyes Malicite and WN…*
*thinks seriously about transposing their heads onto each other*
*staring at all the vowels in wonder*
We sure could have used THOSE in an earlier fail.
*in awed voice*
Can you do that?
That’d be cool!
Well now, I’ve not got a nickname like graymatterz for no reason.
The mind is a powerful thing.
Watch…
*bends spoon with mind power*
Oh wait…wrong trick.
*transposes WN and Malicite’s heads*
Pretty funny huh?
Ohh!
*giggles and claps hands together*
Now, make them dance like puppets!
Do you prefer them to be like “peanut” or “jose jalapeno on a stick”?
Oh, peanut, please!
OK…but only for a few minutes.
*causes WN and Malicite to dance around the room and recite expression like “Whattha HEEEeeeeeeeellllllllllllllll?” *
OK…
*returns WN and Malicite’s heads to their rightful owners and walks away whistling*
There is no spoon.
or so I made you believe.
And the cake is no lie. It’s all a conspiracy set up by Interpol, the CIA and the FBI, with EPA.
Just as I told them to.
MuaHAHAHA!!
♪ and then I saw her face… oooo, I’m a believer ♫
With the Audi R8, this will not be a BMW win.
Not now, not in a million years.
Haha yeah lol
or ‘take your toys out of my yard, kids’
Sheer brilliance for the BMW design team!
Well, for their marketing team anyway. As far as design goes, I think the Audi R8 cleans the Bim’s clock
But I’m still trying to figure out if this is a BMW win, or a BMW fail? Can somebody please explain this?
Audi has some great designs. License plate seen on an Audi: “AUDIOS”.
Best EPIC WIN of failblog!
Really?
Yeah really!
Quit hogging the conversation! Sheesh! Can’t nobody get a word in edgewise around here!
Replying to self = talking to self = loneliness = no friends = fail.
Looks more like a WIN, if you ask me.
Imagine making a car in which instead of using a steering wheel, you drive it by playing chess….it’s a chance between 1 and 0, but a guy can dream, can’t he?
Or maybe you could drive it with the wheel from a ship?
Audi Billboard fail? More like BMW billboard win!
more like both
fail vs. win
OOOOOOOOOOO….
AAAAAAAAAAAAH…..
Look at the pretty mushroom clouds all over the room.
Advertising FTW
This is both a fail and a win. An epic win, at that.
umm pretty sure thats a bmw win
Not only are BMW drivers A-holes, but evidently the company itself…
…as opposed to Audi who went, “BMW, make your move”? That’s not douchy *at all*, right?
Hey guys…in case you missed it…..
THIS IS DEFINITELY A WIN!
maybe,
unless you like AUDI, then it’s a fail…
or if you like Mercedes, then it’s a “who cares”?
So then, Possibly this is a definite (maybe) Win (or fail, depending on your outlook).
There. Covered. Done. Back to imploding Trolls’ heads.
Dude, BMW has nothing on Audi R8.
Only the presence of the Audi R8 in this billboard automatically makes it an Audi win.
*Pokes Closet with a stick*
Sorry Closet, forgot my tag above.
^sarcasm tag^
It ATE the word sarcasm out of my post….WTF?
What if you like Volkswagen?
*Judy’s head starts to glow eerily.*
Are you sure you want to ask that?
Uh, what? I didn’t say anything!
*runs away quickly*
The guy who designed the audi ad must live on the failboat. Totally left himself open to the beamer win
Stop having a boring tuna
Stop having a boring life
I thought I took care of this already?

Just put the cheetah in the Slap Chop
Add your cilantro, your hot peppers
And hit it like this.
You don’t have time to make breakfast?
Breakfast to go.
they’re both german, so they are both one of the best cars, far above all american cars
And with a name like Cortez….I expect you are the expert on German vs. American huh?
However, I do agree with you and I AM American.
^^^^Above question did not come out to sound quite like it should have…
*thinks maybe a little proofreading first would be in order from now on*
Nah. I doubt even proof reading could clean up your racism, redneck.
wow, you nailed it dude.
that being said, I realized the way it looked after re-reading it, and apologized. Would have deleted it or at least edited it if those were available options.
Now of course, your statement is by NO MEANS racist at all either, cause we all know those that make a slip of the tongue must obviously automatically be a backwoods redneck.
Idiot.
This should be a WIN
BOOOOM!
Sorry for the splatter everyone.
*wipes face with handkerchief*
Might I suggest you do that in an area where there are no people around? Please, you just ruined my best shirt!
don’t worry next time I’ll form a bubble around their head to keep everything contained.
Make sure to dispose of them properly.

That’s only theory though. It still has to be proven that there is such a thing as troll brains.
epic billboard placement maneuver!
Wow. I do believe that’s a fail and a win in one picture. How often does that happen?
It happened everytime we had a movie clip for a while there.
It is omnipresent and infinite.
For every fail there is an equal and opposite win.
There are infinitely many primes.
But how do you prove that there are infinitely many fails?
*thinks about logic*
*gives up*
*points at the internet*
Funny ad placement but Audi is still a much cooler car. BMW’s are for unoriginal preppies.
FAKE
none big company would mention its rival
I’m not entirely sure but I think this is the first FAKE, isn’t it? What took them so long?
Oops. I thought I replied…
And now I did. Thanks for making me look stupid, FB.
As if I needed help with that! Just look at that – four irrelevant comments in a row!
Going for a fifth?
A fifth of Skye™ would be lovely … but only if Arthur is actually going (out) for it.
Wow, you’re on a roll Arthur. But the real question here is…
the PIXELS and SHADOWS!!!1!!
Omg…this thread gave me a much-needed *roffle!*
This is most definitely a BMW win. Audi got its ass BURNED.
Dragon, look away now.
Stupidity =/= trolling.
*shields skull with tinfoil helmet*
Too late!
*sobs*
Sorry. *offers cookie*
This has got to be the greatest win/fail situation I have ever seen.
*offers tinfoil helmet*
Helping the trolls is not a good way to start here, fella.
Aren’t trolls people who purposely try to colonize a forum? So people who just don’t have anything interesting to say but feel like talking anyway aren’t trolls, just annoying.
Besides, the tinfoil hats are for keeping the government from reading your mind. Otherwise they will pump propaganda in there using microwaves until you become a zombie sailor. I don’t know if I want troll zombies in the Navy. *offers one*
Trolls are annoying, obnoxious and ignorant, all at the same time. They can be vicious and pitifully stupid as well. The ones who repeat the same thing over and over, even though they know it is annoying, are also trolls.
And after reading your second paragraph, I have chanced upon the conclusion that a mental asylum somewhere is missing an inmate.
Crap!!! How did you find out about me. I thought I made a clean get away!
*offers Aiki a clean shamwow*
Better luck next time.
Why on earth would you think I was an asylum escapee?
We get internet here, too, silly. =D
It’s not as much of a fail as it is a win on the part of BMW
What’s the name of this blog?
Er…Nope, it’s gone. It’s on the tip of my tongue. Is it TrailPlog?
StaleLog… or maybe RailPog?
Hot Diggity Dog?
MailFrog?
FlailHog
Great picture !
We Germans build the best cars !
Audi, BMW, Mercedes, Porsche, Volks Wagen (VW) ! All German !
You misspelled Volkswagen…
Lol. Funnah
Timmah!
Boo. I submitted this a week ago with fail AND win attached respectively

See y’all Sunday! Be safe, all.
Have fun, Judy! It was nice having you around all day.
It wins more than it fails x3
What the hell is wrong with you people? Do you want to give Dragon a nervous breakdown, for Chrissake?
you annoy me.
Its a WIN not a fail.
Someone should put a cover over one of these ads.
Which one? The one that fai-
*doesn’t say it*
Doesn’t matter. As long as there is an undercover car.
BMW EPIC WINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and i’m an Audi fan, gotta bow and take my hat off.
For what it’s worth, I’m a BMW fan, and I really liked this Audi commercial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=350tD8E7htM
HAHAHAH
I think this is one of my favourites yet XD
I’d say this was more of a BMW WIN than an Audi FAIL.
FURKIN HILARIOUS!
Honestly, like wow. Best fail in a really long time in my opinion
Drive safe, everybody.
THIS SHOULD BE A BMW WIN!!!!!!
*gives up and goes to burrow under the covers*
Come and get me when it’s over.
*goes spelunking*
*SQUEAL!!!*
Oooh, your feet are cold.
But if you ask me to warm them up, I’ll totally cave.
What have I grotto lose? I can’t decline that offer.
*lights candles*
Oooh…let’s have a scavernger hunt!
*hides goodies*
Okay, tell me when I’m getting warmer…

*slides fingers down through the ringlets*
Well, I dunno about YOU, but I’M getting warmer…
Let’s go for total cave darkness.
*places blindfolds*
*leans in close…sniff-sniff*
Something smells delicious in this area…
*nuzzles neckline, roots a little lower*
Mmmm. You always do like the hollow at my throat.
And…ooo! Rock formations!
*hands glide over smooth, pillowy surfaces*
*caresses sides, groping for firm purchase while sliding down the hips*
*senses the humidity rise and hang like a dewy fog around the face*
I…think they meant for it to be that way. together theyre a better ad than they are apart, I call no Fail
Funny ad but Audi rocks. BMW owners are unoriginal.
This is mislabeled, it should be BMW WIN!!
I don’t get it
I’ll explain: It’s a BMW WIN.
I still drive an AMC gremlin. Shoot.
*pulls trigger*
*body falls*
My first sexual experience was in the back seat of an audi, actually. It was with MaryAnn Kleiber of Hosstown PA…she and I clambered into the backseat, took off all our clothes and this is a story all about how My life got flipped turned upside down And I’d like to take a minute just sit right there
I’ll tell you how I become the prince of a town called Bel-Air
In West Philadelphia born and raised
On the playground is where I spent most of my days
Chillin’ out maxin’ relaxin’ all cool
And all shootin’ some b-ball outside of the school
When a couple of guys who were up to no good
Started makin’ trouble in my neighborhood
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
And said you’re movin’ with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air
I whistled for a cab and when it came near
The license plate said “Fresh”, and it had dice in the mirror
If anything I could say that this cab was rare
But I thought man forget it yo homes to Bel-Air
I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8
And I yelled to the cabbie ‘yo homes smell ya later’
Looked at my kingdom I was finally there
To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel-Air
but on the first three episodes they used these lyrics:
In West Philadelphia born and raised
On the playground is where I spent most of my days
Chillin’ out maxin’ relaxin’ all cool
And all shootin’ some b-ball outside of the school
When a couple of guys who were up to no good
Started makin’ trouble in my neighborhood
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
And said you’re movin’ with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air
I begged and pleaded with her day after day
But she packed my suitcase and sent me on my way
She give me a kiss and then she gave me my ticket
Put my walkman on and said I might as well kick it
First class yo this is bad
Drinkin’ orange juice out of a champagne glass
Is this what the people of Bel-Air live like
Hmmm this might be all right
I whistled for a cab and when it came near
The license plate said “Fresh”, and it had dice in the mirror
If anything I could say that this cab was rare

I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8
And I yelled to the cabbie ‘yo homes smell ya later’
Looked at my kingdom I was finally there
To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel-Air
Other lyrics were never used for the show but did show up later on an album version they were:
Now this is a story all about how
My life got flipped turned upside down
And I’d like to take a minute just sit right there
I’ll tell you how I become the prince of a town called Bel-Air
In West Philadelphia born and raised

First class yo this is bad
Drinkin’ orange juice out of a champagne glass
Is this what the people of Bel-Air live like
Hmmm this might be all right
But wait I hear they’re prissy and all that
Is this the type of place that they should send this cool cat
I don’t think so I’ll see when I get there
I hope they’re prepared for the prince of Bel-Air
Well uh the plane landed and when I came out
There was a dude looked like a cop standin’ there with my name out
I ain’t tryin’ to get arrested yet I just got here
I sprang with the quickness like lightening disappeared
I whistled for a cab and when it came near
The license plate said “Fresh”, and it had dice in the mirror
If anything I could say that this cab was rare
But I thought man forget it yo homes to Bel-Air
I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8

*roffle*
*high-fives*
Damnit….
I wanted to implode his head.
Should be a win.
Complete WIN for BMW
I personally think that this is a win.
Audi fail, but BMW win!!
WOO HOO YEAH WOO!!!!!!!
How the heck is this a fail? This is BMW win!
GOD THAT’S F*CKING AWESOME! Pwned X 1900000000000000000
this is a total WIN
Last?
def more of a win
Thats awesome.
I’ve seen this a million times before it posted here. Boring
That should be WIN, not a FAIL.
this isn’t a fail, it’s an EPIC WIN!
sigh… it’s Audi that FAILed. BMW win. Can’t people read the damn title?
Epic. Win.
Oh wow. Well. Played.
They both fail for continuing to sell cars that are powered by an engine that was invented in the 19th century.
I think this is exactly what Audi wants. Turning it into a two manufacturer race where the leader seems to acknowledge it is a marketing win. Now it looks like the options are audi and bmw. Exactly what they want.
LOL thats extermely clever
Backstory behind these billboards:
The Audi one went up first and was paid for by Audi of America. The BMW billboard was thought up after the Audi “challenge” was in place. It was paid for by Santa Monica BMW. It amounted to a brilliant concept and media buy by the dealership, taking down part of a (likely) overfunded national Audi campaign. End result:
BMWin
No kidding? For real?
isnt that a win?
BMW billboard wins
Blaupunkt, after considering the circumstances and based on
Newton’s third law, you might just be right..
First it was the chicago homicide department mug, now this, how many times can the people of the earth mistake something as a fail when its a win.
The bigger fail there is the title. XD
I think this is the most repetitive comment section ever. And I expect that to continue. Anyone else thinks this is a win? Please ignore the other 300 comments stating the exact same thing and post your opinion below. Thank you (not really).
you know… thats more of a win.
BMW ftw
fake;-) huhu nice, but fake look at audi
later look at “your move. BMW” difrent shadows on billboard
Not fake. http://www.autoblog.com/2009/04/17/billboard-war-redux-audi-shoots-back-bmw-turns-away/
It’s not so much audi fail as BMW win.
Definite BMW win =)
ROFL, obviously a comeback to the Audi billboard, and it was probably put there to rub Audi’s face in it.
looks like a bmw win
Probably not fake:
http://www.vimeo.com/4082525
Looks pretty real here:
http://www.vimeo.com/4082525
Not actually a fail. This one was done completely on purpose. In fact, the BWM dealer had to approach BMW corporate to put of the ad.
Great inter-brand banter leads to great brand-building opportunities.
More like Epic Win. Not on Audi’s part though. If BMW had intentionally placed the sign there after the Audi, which I think they did, it would be an Epic Win.
pwned
this seems more like a win to me
But in chess, everyone knows you cant win with one piece! O.o
Audi Fail. BMW Win.
EPIC WIN!
it should say WIN by the BMW billboard too
Best advertising win ever.
how is this a fail? this is an EPIC WIN for bmw!
WIN!
More like “Win” than fail.
Audi’s waaay better than BMW.
definetly a win not a fail, a fail for audi and a Win for Bmw
666th
Is that there on purpose? Thats awesome!
WIN. Not fail, win.
On the contrary. I do believe that that billboard is very much a BMW win. not a fail. Very clever BMW. props to you for being smart. also TEAM CULLEN BLACK RULES!!!!!!
absolutely brilliant!!!
They’re light and dark, too, like chess pieces. This is definitely a WIN, not a FAIL. Fail identification FAIL.
wow, marketing win.
Marketing placement win. Failblog fail.
haha and you know audi paid a pretty penny for that ad. paid to be pwned.
More like BMW win
isnt this a WIN??
why the hell is this a fail?!
bmw win!!!!!
It should be, Audi Billboard Fail / BMW Billboard Win
This is not a fail at all. Defiantly a win!!
Bahahhaahaha… BMoWned.
haha AUDI WIN^^
wow that is amazing. Epic Win fo shor
the smaller (audio) billboard says your move BMW, the the big billboard (BMW) says checkmate as if they were playing checkers. really are you that dumb too not notice that.
Hey thelordjake…it’s CHESS not checkers, or are you that dumb to not know the difference?
haha
why is this a fail?
this should be a bad ass win for BMW.
seriously…
OH! I GET IT! BMW WIN!
That’s no fail. That’s BMW win
LOL
Billboard one: You Move BMW
Billboad two: Checkmate
Total WIN…you fail Nick C.
This should be classified as an owned pic instead
Oh my stars. This is wonderful.
WIN
Actually, I’d call this a BMW Billboard Win!
Reminds me of one we had a while back. This was when the “Where’s the beef?” ads first came out. Our local Wendy’s put “WHERES THE BEEF” on its marquee. Next door was another burger joint, whose sine read “HERE IT IS”…
I think that you are going off on a tangent.
Bwahaha I live right down the street from this. Seems the BMW dealers did notice Audi’s billboard.
This is a BMW Win not fail! haha the guys stupid.
this is a win! haha
Actually it’s a Win. For BMW.
bbbbbbbbbbeammmmmmerrr!!!! OWNEs!!!! muhahaaha
It’s a Win for BMW a fail for Audi!!! I bet the Audi marketing rep that had that billboard put up is pissed too…
HOLY FUK, this are epic wins!!!
I used to work in an office next to that coffee bean
That AUDI be illegal.
/Zing!
i live next to that
YOU SAW THEM,TOO!!! I KNEW SHE WAS A WHORE!!!!!!!!
can anyone make out the location? street sign in the left hand bottom corner?
Yeah, google indicated the intersection of Beverly Glen Boulevard and Santa Monica Boulevard. The street view shows what is the BWM billboard with a different ad on it (but past the corner, the ad is different – the street view was taken at a different time – so the ad changes frequently). There is a distant billboard with a car (not the same one) on it that could be the Audi billboard. So it’s plausible, but not proven.
Street View:

comment box fail
BMW Schizophrenia FAIL.
It’s fighting itself.
this is a win, not a fail
DEFINATELY BMW WIN.
Im sorry, but that is a Win! there is no fail here
-M
YOUR SUCH A DUMB ASS THEY ARE TALKING, RETARD. NOT A FAIL BUT A WIN
OMG Santa Monica BMW! I LIVE IN SANTA MONICA! Imagine fail right here in my own town.
WIN!!!!!!!
That should be a WIN!
WIN!!!!!!!!
what an epic juxtaposing win is glorified within this picture!
that’s my neighborhood.
GO BMW
It is an Audi billboard fail but more of a BMW win
Wow
Hint: Its not AUDI, its BMW
win for the ad,
fail for reality
The Audi Billboard shows the Audi A4, the BMW shows the M3. They’re not really comparable.
The A4 is a $30-40,000 car, AWD with around 211HP
The M3 is a $55-65,000 car, RWD with around 414HP
Audi does make a S4, which is much more comparable, and BMW does have the lower (but still nice) 3 series which would also be much more comparable in both price and performance.
STFU its a win >.>
This isn’t fail, it’s win
Dude you FAILED those are BMWs not Audis. It’s still a FAIL though. Take this as a tip: examine the FAIL pic before you post. You know, the old saying “Look before yeh leap.”
That’s not a fail! That’s a win! Go BMW!!
Lol Audi FAIL BMW WIN!!!!!! If you cant see that then youe a FAIL
I think it’s a win.
Best BMW Billboard ever!!
Audi: your move BMW
BMW: CHECKMATE!!!
sickkk…ROFLMFAO
this is more a BMW win than an Audi Fail IMO
We didn’t start the flame war !
peeps were hating on it before i left my comment
thats not a fail thats a win!
Agreed
Theres 2 Signs.
R-O-F-L.
THE BEST FAIL I EVER SAW.
Lol+5.
That is WIN! Not FAIL
That’s a win.
THAT IS A WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNN i dont care wat any one says its a win
Winning idea, failed execution. Legibility of both boards is brutal in the real world.
actually that’s a win
This is more like WIN.
This is fraking brilliant!
Best. Ad placement. Ever.
Win clearly
Audi fail…. bmw win
I think this is WIN.
ROFLMAO!!! Audi just got owned by BMW…how do you like them now Audi??
BMW-1
Audi-0
WIN c the audi say ur move bmw…then bmw say checkmate=WIN
thats where I LIVE!
Audi fail, BMW win. So does this one cancel itself out?
First, Cristin you’re a moron. Second, it is sad that a great many individuals don’t play chess anymore therefore letting this classic joke fly over their head! Third, this is an epic WIN in the fact that BMW a major corporation has the foresight and sense of humor to make such a joke!
WIN!
THIS IS A WIN NOT A FAIL
hahaha funniest thing ive ever seen!!
Thanks
this billboard is at the corner of santa monica blvd. and beverly glen in l.a. near century city… totally rules
Hahaha so many kids on failblog.
Anyways that’s an EPIC win right there.
It is an Audi fail but BMW Win so depends on how u look at it
Both sides personified through unrelated entities, it might be understood better with this:
http://photos-p.friendster.com/photos/03/22/45742230/1_109290420l.jpg
THIS IS EPIC. It’s not win, it’s not fail, it’s pure epic.
THAT IS A WIN! lol
BMW win!
it should say WIN
Audi Fail…. BMW WIN!!!!
This is why you never enter into attack advertising peeps, the other will just attack back.
WIN
No one in this thread agrees with you.
Not for the opponent!
But, but, but… that would make it an Audi fail!
this is such a win!!
Well, I guess you must be right, because you’ve had a lot of time to think about it.
Comparing apples to oranges…. A4 vs M3? come one S4 vs M3 is more like it.
I would say this is closer to ‘BMW Win’ than ‘FAIL’
Well, that’s just the camera angle. From the west, the Audi fail is closer.
I say win, personally.
Goodness,
I do believe this is a win if there ever was one.
Exactly! This is about as winny as a win ever gets! =3
I’m curious what made you agree to this particular declaration of WIN and not one of the other 1.000?
I believe BMW made the audi sign and paid for it to be there. otherwise it so happens that the bmw is replying to the audi and is bigger and more dominant just so people laugh at audi. if audi poster was there anyway and this was created by bmw as a reply, audi should have bought the bigger billboard instead of the small one. also, why would an audi poster specifically target bmw in the first place?
because BMW is the shiznat
Obviously BMW made both signs.
Great placement… even if they paid for both.
it could be seen as a win, but they purposely put the fail over the smaller one, saying that one failed.
ohh i get it, it’s a fail cus the far billboard says ‘your turn BMW’ , however, the rest if the billboard is advertising for the Audi A4
It’s a fail because of Audi billbord says “Your turn BMW” and the BMW billbord says “Checkmate”. It’s either a Audi billboard fail or a BMW billboard WIN. OK?
Audi Fail.
BMW Win.
Uh, actually that would be a “Fail Owned”
noo bmw placed it first then audi is like whatever and placed a smaller sign reading your move bmw so like u made it that big and spent so much money, we dont need that we put a small sign and still sell more cars…
Fail? That’s a total WIN.
HUGE BMW win owning audi in 2 ways: size and the other obvious
That was more of an epic win that a fail. Bravo BMW! German cars FTW
I saw this IRL before on the site
more of a BMW Win if you ask me
It’s a fail. Audi failed in their challenge to BMW (the billboard on the left)
thats not a fail. the audi is better than the bmw so how could bmw win? bwms are car fails and audis are wins, so there.
omg I saw those billboards and thought they were so funny!!! I think it’s a win cause it’s just good advertising.
Hahaha i saw this actually, its in portland OR.
german auto win
The fail here is that BMW thought they could refute Audi’s billboard with their own billboard of an INFERIOR car.
win!!!
Poor Arthur.
lol that is hilarious
Best billboard placement ever.
I bet BMW payed for both billboards! LOL This is great!
Don’t really know which, but this is either the worst fail or the best win of all time. That’s official, no piecharts required!
Well, if you scroll up you’ll find the answer: BMW WIN!!!!!11!!!1!
the real fail was that its a bmw advert and you put audi billboard fail.
The real fail was that you totally missed the entire point of this fail. Epic fail.
Oh man, that was very nicely played by BMW! ROFL I almost didn’t’ see it their billboard is so big.
Check. And. Mate.
Yeah, and BTW, I play chess…Call me a geeek if you want… *Hangs head in sorrow*
–
Artemis: “TOday, I thought we could discuss some restaurant terms.”
Beckett: “Sneezes look like worms.”
Artemis: “What? No, forget worms!”
Beckett: “FORGET WORMS!?!?”
Artemis: “*sigh* for now.”
It’s nice to see a company directly reply to it’s competitors and with grit too! I mean when was the last time you saw a company like BMW be this small in public. Loved it!
well done, bmw!
More like a Win.
WIN, not FAIL. Best billboard placement ever.
Oh, Oh ,Oh, i get the fail/win The bill boards are playing checkers
It’s kinda funny because BMW and Audi are owned by the same “mother company.”
how is that a fail?
win!
I really like your blog design.
Definitely a BMW win!
OMG! Chess with cars!
Im sorry but thats a win on BMW, as much as i hate those things, GOOD JOB!
Thats more of a WIN
Two things.
EPIC AUDI TAUNT FAIL!
and…
VERY EPIC BMW COMEBACK WIN!!!
))
Maybe every win must have an equal and opposite fail?
definitely bmw win!
Audi fail, BMW epic win!
Scania Drivers are best by far
well planned billboard.
That should be called: BMW Billboard WIN
It should be Win xD
Hey Arthur! Here’s another for ya!
I just can’t get enough
I just can’t get enough
Thank you sir may I have another!
Thank you sir may I have another!
Thank you ma’am may I have another!
Thank you ma’am may I have another!
Is it WIN, or something bigger?
Actually, Audi ended up winning the billboard war in LA:http://www.autointhenews.com/bmw-vs-audi-billboard-wars-a-battle-of-ad-budgets/
Oh yeah 1000th comment
It is definitely a win! Anyway Audi sucks on track!
