  2. Malicite, Bored Paralegal and Supporter of the Anti-Troll Initiative says:

    That sign lied to me :(

  3. FruitcakeSolvesAll♂ says:

    …….So…. they drew it on?

  4. Jules ♂ ♪ says:

    Green light.

  5. MRN says:

    What’s it made out of, a a cracker?

  6. sweethooligan says:

    you say stop but i say go go go

  7. Kulabá az ünnepi kaki says:

    This is rather a win?

  8. Samay says:

    Win.

  9. FruitcakeSolvesAll♂ says:

    I’m not sure I’m liking this new design. It makes posting comments really slow. :(
    It’s lagging me, too. :cry:
    And…. Hey! Leila gender-tagged me! o.O

  10. JasonK says:

    It’s a prank. Love it. :D

  13. ♀ LEILA© - contrite and for the eradication of product testing on animals ♫ says:

    This is a schizophrenic’s with multiple personalities worst nightmare.

  14. JUUUUF JUUUUF 38 minutes before take-off!

  15. FruitcakeSolvesAll♂ says:

    I’ll just make you all happy and take my leave.
    *goes away*

    • ♀ LEILA© - contrite and for the eradication of product testing on animals ♫ says:

      NOOOO!!! Stay. *grabs FSA’s leg*

      • firebenter says:

        Take this leila *throw a rope to leila*

        • ♀ LEILA© - contrite and for the eradication of product testing on animals ♫ says:

          It didn’t work. He is gone. :cry:

        • Brewski says:

          Fruitcake, I wasn’t trying to get rid of you. You’re welcome to stay.

          • MRN says:

            …just don’t post.

            • Brewski says:

              OK seriously, I don’t like to get hostile. OK, he’s young and a bit humour-impaired, but I’d hope with a little training he’d catch on. Was I out of line up there?

              • Malicite, Bored Paralegal and Supporter of the Anti-Troll Initiative says:

                No.

                • Arthur Eld says:

                  The problem is he always leaves as soon as someone tries to explain some things to him. I tried twice, others too. Little effect, so far.

                  • Brewski says:

                    Good point. He either is very sensitive to criticism, or is a very clever troll.

                    • Arthur Eld says:

                      Or coincidence. Which I doubt.

                      • Boobie Trap it's sooo good says:

                        It’ll be okay. I’m still learning myself but I know
                        not to take things in the bad evil potato way.

                        • ♀ LEILA© - contrite and for the eradication of product testing on animals ♫ says:

                          *gives Boobie ONE Gold Star* …and potatos aren’t evil. It’s the people who handle the potatos.

              • MRN says:

                I’m the one who got hostile, and I’m not apologetic. Catch on? I guess you catch on by reading the posts, laughing when you find them funny, and coming back in a while under a new name when you’ve settled down a little.

                • Arthur Eld says:

                  So… who were you before?

                  • MRN says:

                    Hah! As soon as I posted and re-read my comment, I thought, “Oh, someone is going to think that’s what I did!”
                    I looked at the pictures for about a month before it even occurred to me to click on the comment link. I read all the comments for 3-4 fails and cracked up. I started posting for the 1st time on the Stockbroker Fail.
                    I have another name on the Engrish site, but that’s it.

            • jam says:

              *chuckles*

          • Malicite, Bored Paralegal and Supporter of the Anti-Troll Initiative says:

            This isn’t the first time he has been asked to ease up. He should know better by now…

            • ♀ LEILA© - contrite and for the eradication of product testing on animals ♫ says:

              What did he do that was so bad. :(

              • Malicite, Bored Paralegal and Supporter of the Anti-Troll Initiative says:

                He posted on every, single thread. This was done regardless if he actually had anything to add. It was just posting for the sake of posting. I didn’t mind it always, but, in some case, it was pretty unnecessary and annoying. He’s been asked at least twice, prior to today, to ease up, and he chose not to listen.
                *shrugs*
                What he does kinda borders on trolling.

  16. O.k. dear friends of mine!
    My workday is over and I’m going home! Goodbye!

    • Malicite, Bored Paralegal and Supporter of the Anti-Troll Initiative says:

      I hate you (with love)!
      Have a good day.

      • Adam says:

        you win! lol spend your workday on failblog… So, that’s what happened to Crystler! haha no but seriously the auto-industry is no laughing matter.

        • Malicite, Bored Paralegal and Supporter of the Anti-Troll Initiative says:

          Says who!?
          I’ve said their cars are garbage for the last ten years… they are finally getting what the deserve for releasing such inferior scrap metal!
          The only people I feel bad for are the plant workers.

          • Arthur Eld says:

            Ten?

            • Malicite, Bored Paralegal and Supporter of the Anti-Troll Initiative says:

              I’ve only know they were garbage for that long :)

              They on the other hand, have sucked for much longer.

            • MRN says:

              By “ten” he means “25″.

              • Malicite, Bored Paralegal and Supporter of the Anti-Troll Initiative says:

                Oh, I didn’t start disliking American cars till I was old enough to drive, which makes me the old guy at 26.

                • ♀ LEILA© - contrite and for the eradication of product testing on animals ♫ says:

                  *ahem* Mal, aren’t we supposed to be pro-American? :|

                  • Brewski says:

                    I gotta give the American car-makers credit. They are the masters at cup-holder design!

                    • Malicite, Bored Paralegal and Supporter of the Anti-Troll Initiative says:

                      I love the cup holders, but I won’t support manufacturers that produce rubbish; no matter what country they are associated with.

                  • XPhile says:

                    America is the originator of capitalism, which means letting the market decide winners and losers. If the auto companies made products no one wants, they should fail, that’s how it goes. Having the government bail out failing companies is anti-American, IMHO.

                    • MRN says:

                      And by “America”, you mean “England” (or Germany?)

                      • XPhile says:

                        By “America”, I mean “America”. I won’t speak for anyone else’s country, but the Founders would be rolling in their graves to see what we’re doing today. Not just bailouts, the whole kit and caboodle.

                        • Brewski says:

                          I believe MRN was referring to your “originator of capitalism”, which is completely untrue. You have to go back to ancient Rome. And much of Europe.

                        • Arthur Eld says:

                          Ancient Rome was in Europe…
                          .
                          Just one thought before I have to temporarily leave: Does anybody else think it’s quite ridiculous to lead discussions today by claiming what the founding fathers of the USA wanted or not? Things have changed a little since then… I mean I do see the point when it comes to the basic principles of the American constitution – but things like the bailouts? I’m not sure about this, but does the constitution say the goverment is NEVER allowed to interfere with the free markets?

                        • Brewski says:

                          I meant to say that most of Europe had practiced capitalism for centuries before the USA was colonized by England, France, and Spain. So cut that out!
                          Regarding the constitution, it’s a big fault line here, just like most political discussion. Some take it very literally, and others say it has to be read within the context of the times in which it was written. People often twist it to say what they personally prefer it to say.

                        • ♂Krisstaar says:

                          Kind of like the bible :)

                          You’re thinking of mercantilism which can be traced back to the Roman Empire, but it is not the same as today’s capitalism. The commercial capitalism started with Britain, the Netherlands and their respective East India Companies. Then again the bank of England was founded in the 17th century. The evolution of economy is much like any evolutionary process. It’s difficult to say where one step begins and another stops. But, I’ll agree that capitalism (historically) originates from Europe and/ or the Middle East.

                        • X-Phile says:

                          Sorry for the delay. You’re right, I shouldn’t have said “originator”, but I was pressed for time and couldn’t think of a better word. Anyway, it gave yall something to talk about. What I meant was that America was the first country to adopt official policies towrds the markets adopted from Adam Smith’s “Causes of Wealth”, and that it was the first truly “free market” country. And the founders were quite clear on what they intended for us, stated in the Federalist Papers.

      • ♀ LEILA© - contrite and for the eradication of product testing on animals ♫ says:

        I love him with hate and jealousy.

        • Malicite, Bored Paralegal and Supporter of the Anti-Troll Initiative says:

          You are jealous of him with love and hate?

          • ♀ LEILA© - contrite and for the eradication of product testing on animals ♫ says:

            Yeah. That about sums it up.

        • Boobie Trap it's sooo good says:

          And cookies. My hate must last another
          five hours and twenty minutes.
          I hate when work interrupts failing!

  17. 5 eagles says:

    i like ♀ LEILA© . O.C.D. ? that there people thats got
    that disease that there correct and fix everything to
    Fien Shie order in its place ect..

  18. Ben says:

    Walking in a Winter Win-derland

  19. Rusty says:

    don’t know much about your rules here, but this seems to be a WIN to me.

    • fluffy the aquatic vertebrate animal™ says:

      Rule 1: If someone already said it, don’t say it again.
      Rule 2: There is always someone who says it’s a “win”.

  20. 5 eagles says:

    someone says” Bake”

  21. mexus says:

    I got a ticket for a sign like this :(

    • 5 eagles says:

      serves you right, the shape should give it away lol.

      • Malicite, Bored Paralegal and Supporter of the Anti-Troll Initiative says:

        Dude, you couldn’t have gotten a ticket…

        I know Go signs are optional and all, but you really shouldn’t be driving.

      • Minger says:

        Correct – it is the only sign of this shape, for reason clearly highlighted in the picture. Even when obscured by snow, you know it’s a “Stop” sign.

        If you are too dumb to know that; then you are too dumb to drive.

        • ♂Krisstaar says:

          Humour response fail. I won’t say that you’re to dumb to post on a humour site though. It’s implied. (Nah, I’m just pulling your leg)

        • mexus says:

          It wasn’t a stop sign! It was a don’t pass sign (circular shape)

  22. XPhile says:

    Sorry I’m late…loks like I missed all the good stuff. I got stuck at a “GO” sign and was terribly confused. How’s my avatar look?
    *shows off avatar*

  23. ♂Krisstaar says:

    God’s love stops at this sign.

  24. 5 eagles says:

    Arthur Eld I can’t find your last comment ? maybe their writing your words
    in a book, to show the moderator.lol

  25. ♂Krisstaar says:

    (Comments won’t nest EVER AGAIN!)

  26. Arthur Eld says:

    This is… strange. Sorry for destroying FB! Err, gotta go!
    *runs off*

  27. Lol Iguana says:

    I iz smart

  28. ♀ LEILA© - contrite and for the eradication of product testing on animals ♫ says:

    We are comments and we refuse to nest.
    -
    From LEILA: everyone, abandon ship!!!!!

  29. technicolor says:

    Go go faster faster

  30. GodofPies says:

  31. Joe says:

    Is anyoaibfgioio omfg

  32. ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US says:

    WIN!

  33. mrs_z says:

    I’ve been thinking (hence the smell of wood burning)… I don’t think that’s snow. When was the last time it snowed sideways onto poles, or signs, for that matter? I suspect that’s shaving cream, guys. Or…

  34. Taylor Tot says:

    How is this not a win?

  35. peter says:

    definitely snow artist win

  36. funyyy says:

    EPIC WIN ^>^

  37. Chatterley says:

    This is one of the most adorable things I’ve seen in a long time.

  38. Peanut butter says:

    id call it more a win than a fail….

  39. RoyBatty says:

    This “Fail” – Humor Appreciation Fail.

  40. it must be opposite day

  41. chinyere says:

    Vandalism WIN
    :D

  42. droctogonopus says:

    actually, it’s kind of a win. I wonder if the photographer drew it on or it was snow graffiti from someone else

  43. mach turtle says:

    Seems more like a win to me…

  44. That is really funny, a big fail indeed!!!!:) :) :)

  45. STOP FAIL? Impossible. Every man is destined to fail at some time of their life. The caption should have been “STOP SIGN FAIL”

  46. Jeff says:

    I would call this a WIN. :-)

  47. Hailin says:

    test comment from hailin wu

  48. Hailin says:

    Love this post!

  49. No one says:

    Hello!

  50. Racecar 56 says:

    I have seen a fail stop sign nearby, except it wasn’t covered in spray paint. To was STOP then GO under it, looking like the stop sign was dusty and someone drew GO with their finger in the dust, like they do with wash me on car’s windsheilds/windows…
    FAIL

  51. johnny says:

    this is something i would do.

  52. PhatosV says:

    We had one at my school’s exit driveway, it was green and had the “Go” in the same font as he stop normally is. what a win, even looked professionally made

  53. tahrey says:

    Go… hammertime? Er?

    This is the exact technical reason that Stop signs are that peculiar octagonal shape, and _no_ other sign has the same outline, by the way.

  54. lol says:

    LOL AWESOME I NEVER THOUGHT THAT IT’D MAKE IT HERE I DID THAT A YEAR OR TWO AGO and it was a bit from a hill that went down and turned left XXXXXXXD sweeeeeeet

  55. jonnyBbaby says:

    Another picture with the word fail on it….. OMFG LULZ IT MUST B3 TEH FUNN3Y!!!!!!!!

  56. trusts says:

    um, no means yes!?

  57. trusts says:

    stop does not mean go

  58. Xehanort says:

    Thats more like a win

  59. SiNT4X says:

    Obama’s first step in the new healthcare plan.

  60. Battlechicken says:

    pure win:D

  61. ♂Krisstaar says:

    This is weird… What the hell is going on here?

  62. Malicite, Bored Paralegal and Supporter of the Anti-Troll Initiative says:

    You broke FB!

  63. Malicite, Bored Paralegal and Supporter of the Anti-Troll Initiative says:

    On my screen, they are not nesting at all.

  64. ♂Krisstaar says:

    Oh my (Insert divine being here)!!!! :O No ‘awaiting moderation’ and no nesting! Boy, are you in trouble!!

  65. Arthur Eld says:

    Okay, these down here are unnested for me as well. Apparently I did break FB. Sorry.

  66. MRN says:

    I’m awaiting moderation for trying to explain to Leila how to view an avatar in larger size! I’m losing a lot of nesting too.

  67. ♂Krisstaar says:

    Not to worry… I won’t tell on you… Maybe if we just slide it under the carpet no one will notice?

  68. MRN says:

    Yes! It was the Soviet Russia joke! You caught FB by surprise!

  69. Brewski says:

    Ha ha ha!! It wasn’t my fault this time. Arthur broke failblog, nah nah nah nah naaaahhh!!
    *dances*

  70. Maybe the 300 limit has just changed form?! :shock:

  71. MRN says:

    Actually, there seems to be a bug in the new 300+ post logic.

  72. Boobie Trap it's sooo good says:

    *giggles and does the Snoopy Dance*

  73. ♂Krisstaar says:

    Whatever it is, it’s really disorganised! Comments are appearing all over the place! I think I just saw one jump out the window! (Seriously, I lost a comment! I can’t find it.)

  74. Judy says:

    Did no one notice that all the strangeness started after XPhile introduced us to (duh duh DUNNNGGGHH!) Black Aggie???

  75. ♂Krisstaar says:

    ‘A mysterious statue that has had legends about its supernatural powers’
    O_O

    Sir, I believe you are correct. This is freaking me out… Uh… I have to go. I don’t want my PC covered in ectoplasm!

  76. Judy says:

    (“Sir”?)
    *sighs*

  77. MRN says:

    You must be Judy in Disguise
    .
    .
    .
    … with Glasses

  78. ♂Krisstaar says:

    Sorry, ma’m.

    In my defence, Judy could’ve been a nickname for Judah, Judd, Jade or similar :P
