Well, take these many squeezes and good vibes and thoughts with you. We’ve been keeping a blog journal for you of the best and worst of Failblog while you’ve been gone!
Considering lululemon’s corporate culture, this isn’t at all inappropriate, nor is it a fail. The store’s culture is that of confidence, knowledge and expertise for a more mature and experienced female athlete. MILFs are their core demographic.
stupid, non-fail. This is obviously on purpose. Why wouldn’t mothers in their 30’s want to be hot, and be women we’d like to bang? Whoever submitted this has failed in the worst way.
How’s this: A double entendre is a figure of speech in which a spoken phrase is intended to be understood in either of two ways. In most cases, the first meaning is straightforward, while the second meaning is less so; often risqué, inappropriate, or ironic.

BFF would you be insulted if I made you the General of the Resistance? (Can’t wait till Terminator Salvation comes out, and we seem to have a common enemy in the government.)
yes, seriously, there is also a DILF, you know, dad id like to fu**, but most teen girls dont go for dads, so its not a common term

Ok, I’m going to translate for anyone who doesn’t speak this language. I’ve studied it for years, still the hardest language out there, so I’ll do my best.

Lululemon is a Pokemon which is the evolved form of a Lolomon. You can get a Lolomon by breeding a Douschmon with a MILFmon. A Douschmon is the evolved form of a Tamponmon which is only accessible every one week out of every month.
Correct me if I’m wrong, and I may have missed this conversation somewhere in the billions of comments on failblog; but isn’t foop the alliterative the robots make in Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy?
“The eleven white robots ascended through the seething clouds in a tight formation, and with a few last flashes of flames entered the bowels of their hovering white ship, which, with the noise of a hundred thousand people saying “foop”, it promptly vanished into the thin air out of which it had wopped”.

Missy, it’s likable fineness! Be bold with that nap, no sneaking

I’m guessing this shop is run by people who are REALLY, REALLY aware of popular slang. I think they’re purposely making a racey pun to attract the attention of passersby.
If you think that attempt to use modern slang to an advertising advantage is funny –
Think about what that one (IIRC) Marxist terrorist/separatist group has to go through with that unfortunate Spanish-based acronym, in the Phillipines (where, after all, English is a fairly common second language due to the US presence since 1898).
*WINces at the redundant, ragged, reverberating and really, really rankling reposts of “win”*
*wanders away, moaning and a little depressed*
*reeeeeeeaaallllllly wants a shot of tequila*
LOL! Oh, they did *not* really do this, say it ain’t so! Must have used the same marketing geniuses who told the Republicans that there was no alternate meaning to “teabagging.”
No, the republicans know all too well the other meaning, and frankly the targets of the protests deserve the other meaning – they just forgot that many of the opposing group would consider teabagging enjoyable…..
umm…teabagging is what the liberals dubbed what the people were doing at the TEA PARTIES. The republicans used tthe term “teabagging” only when talking about what the liberals said. All anyone else said was that they were at tea parties. Apparently you only watched the news and convinced yourself that you were well informed.
Why is it people insist that if something is done deliberately, it can’t be a fail? Some of the most spectacular fails I’ve ever seen came from something someone thought was a good idea and did on purpose.
Not saying that for THIS one, mind you…I actually like this one…but still.
Ya, purposeful or not, there is a meaning opposite of what they are going for. Yes they are playing on the popularity of the other saying, but in the end, they are promoting sexual activity.
The sign meant to say “Be A Milf” lululemon had this in the widows of each store. It’s not a fail when done on purpose. At least, that’s what I thought.
This is on purpose… I walk by this particular store every time I go to Bethesda. I see the Blue Mercury sign in the reflection. Teehee. But it’s not a fail. It’s done completely on purpose. It’s a joke.
I wonder what happens when an innocent gal sees the word, google it at home… only to find out that a ton of porn sites come up from the search results…. lol
Which is why terms like MILF should be included in dictionaries…
Snow White should be able to satisfy her,
her, uhm,
curiosity without excessive advertising exposure.
“Ya, purposeful or not, there is a meaning opposite of what they are going for. Yes they are playing on the popularity of the other saying, but in the end, they are promoting sexual activity.”
That’s the spirit !
Says who?
My mom.
She didn’t say that last night.
She said it to me over breakfast.
she was with me at lunch time,and said the same
I had her for brunch
brunch makes me hornier than a sheep dog in a valley full of yogurt cannons. (i happen to also have a yogurt cannon)
What flavour is the yoghurt?
i had her ALL WEEKEND
it was the best weekend of my life
Even if she’s over 60?
Makes her a GILF
your lost
Always a good recommendation…keep the MILFs comin!

Top 10 Gif Chicks!
Maybe a couple MILFS here…but no GILFS!
eww this whole entire thread creeps me out
*squeezee*
Says me. Now I wanna meet lulu lemon!
No you dont, shes bitter.
Just because she soured on you doesn’t meant others wouldn’t like to pucker.
And really…it’s only her pithy sayings that are bitter.
And she has such zest!
Many want to be her main squeeze.
(*squeezes Judy and Dragon*)
When life gives you lululemons…
Make luluade?
*squeezes all around!*
We’re really milfing this pun-run for all it’s worth!
Not me, I’ve gone dry.
Lemonade?
Dammit…and I already blew my “dilemmanade” pun yesterday!
Thanks, Fluffy. Mike’s Hard?
Is the conversation getting seedy, now? If so, this might be the last straw.
This joint has been getting seedier and seedier since I first laid eyes on it.
COYOTE!!!
*squeeeeeeeeeeeze!*
How are you??
You’re back! How do your pulpy innards feel?
*SQUEEZE*
Ooh, crap…I interrupted the pun-run. That gives me the pip.
Got out of radiation isolation yesterday. Pulpy innards is a good description. Chemo starts tomorrow. Mostly I sleep.
I am not sure if the admin. would appreciate my being on their computer. A nurse showed me how. I don’t know when I’ll be able to get on again.
Well, take these many squeezes and good vibes and thoughts with you. We’ve been keeping a blog journal for you of the best and worst of Failblog while you’ve been gone!
*gentle squeeze*
For the sake of the pun run should it be Kernal Apparent?
I hope the others haven’t decided to citrus one out.
Sending only good thoughts your way, Coyote!
Back to bed now. See you all when I can. Hugs all around.
It was sweet of you to keep us posted with what little time and limited access you have.
It certainly was. Best of wishes and the gentlest possible squeeze to you, Coyote.Awww dang, I missed Coyote…
I’ll send him virtual *squeezes*.. *squeezesqueezesqueezesqueezesqueeze*
Virtual squeezes? As opposed to the squeezes we normally have here?I felt a squeeze in the force. I looked and it was Fluffy and a blog monster. Only here. Night all.
G’night, sweet coyote! Thanks so, so much for letting us know you’re all right.
*cries* Waaahhh! I missed coyote!
*meditates* Ohhhhmmmmm….
(virtual squeeeeeeeeeeze! xoxo)
Is “she” with lemonparty?
says lulu lemon!
I’m unsure as to what it’s really trying to say.
Be a mile!Be a mule
I think it might actually be trying to say MILF… (see American Pie)… but it’s kind of inappropriate for a clothing store window…
Nope.
Considering lululemon’s corporate culture, this isn’t at all inappropriate, nor is it a fail. The store’s culture is that of confidence, knowledge and expertise for a more mature and experienced female athlete. MILFs are their core demographic.
So I take it you indulge in the free yoga classes?
ps I love this store, it supplies women with pants that accentuate nice asses.
Wow you are boring!
I’d rather be boring than an ill-informed idiot. No apology necessary.
But i really am sorry……
Sorry that your so fecking boring!!
Wooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
stupid, non-fail. This is obviously on purpose. Why wouldn’t mothers in their 30’s want to be hot, and be women we’d like to bang? Whoever submitted this has failed in the worst way.
Er, lululemon here has in fact shortened the name of its gym program “Mothers Into Fit Living”, into the subsequent acronym. Google MILF lululemon.
Wouldn’t that be MIFL then not MILF? I guess they really do meal MILF but for the few prudes they can say it’s the “mothers into fit living”. lol
try “Mothers into Living Fit”…then it fits the acronym. But I’m sure they were probably using both – a clever play on…letters?
A quick Googling, the MILF in this context is “Mothers Into Living Fit”, a program by lululemon.
What a great name.They put A LOT of market research into that name.
*snork*
I love it. Now I want to shop there.
*pops in*
There’s the mind I like to fathom.
*smooch*
*pops out*
*smooOOOOOoooch!*
how come he is the only one that gets a smooch?
Just accept it and move on.
*Pulls morvevissi away before any harm is directed in his way*
Wise move.
Every once in a while… I try.
It was clearly an intentional choice.
It’s called “double entendre”, but that’s french and so very hard to understand.
How’s this: A double entendre is a figure of speech in which a spoken phrase is intended to be understood in either of two ways. In most cases, the first meaning is straightforward, while the second meaning is less so; often risqué, inappropriate, or ironic.
Gosh, you articulate nicely.
Before I got all rusty I could articulate too.
That’s the spurt!
This is fun. Let me try – - “Yeah, me too. I totally %#$*ed my mom aaaalll weekend.”
That’s just gross.
Bawseeeeeeeeeeee!
Doesn’t that sound like a Pokemon cry?
It does…
Ballsy! I choose you!
yes i will
What’s so bad that it needs to be starred out?

BFF would you be insulted if I made you the General of the Resistance? (Can’t wait till Terminator Salvation comes out, and we seem to have a common enemy in the government.)
I’m glad BFF was saved from the clutches of hammy and his henchmen.
Who cares if someone says “LMAO,” honestly?
Maybe if they were texting it to friend, I wouldn't. But what is the point of putting it here?‘Cause it’s funny?
Something funny? On failblog, a site devoted entirely to humourous pictures? Who’da thunk it.
ROFL
nice
Win^
glad the stupidest fail ever has comments to match.
What’s a MILF?
MILF = Mother I’d Like to Fu**
Seriously?
Mm nope.
yes, seriously, there is also a DILF, you know, dad id like to fu**, but most teen girls dont go for dads, so its not a common term
*feels very smart as everyone glares*
Did you fu** your dad?
So… most teenage boys go for moms??? Ya learn something new every day…
They believe they have a chance, who could blame them with what the OC did.
What DON’T teen boys want to screw? honestly!
*inserts 30-something ^*

I shop there exclusively. So far, no takers.

Let the bluenoses squeal, that’s a marketing WIN!

What kind of crap is this?I wonder if that’s one of the questions asked frequently at the local Sewage Plant.
I would call it bear feces.
Although i doubt it is bare feces.
Where’s the manual for you?

“ferret meat? I haven’t a mammal. You mutts half two wade out mom’s milfing.”
Ohhh...No no no. I believe the last word should be “stepdad”, not “milfing”. Fine job though, Bobby!
it all makes sence now….
and you know whats funny too?
the shop´s name is lululemon.
lulu means in (austrian)german piss. you piss yellow like a lemon. pisslemon.
wrong again.
the guy that owns the company used to own another company (westbeach) that was bought out by asians. so with his next business he just picked a name that would be incredibly hard for them to pronounce.

HA!
What does MILF mean anyways.
Have a guess. If you guess right, you get a shiny thrupenny piece.
Wouldn’t you like to know.
*whispers*
It’s a secret.
ssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhh
Maybe it lacks furtiveness.
*whispers*
Mostly I’m lost ƒ∞þ.

Yay! You’re not lost.
You (and I both) just wander off course sometimes.

Nope. feces is a fast runner
o.o wow…..this is wrong on SO many levels….
Hehe. Tripple entendre! ^^
lol, oh dear…
This shop is probably run by people who haven’t heard of slang.
I’m guessing this shop is run by people who are REALLY, REALLY aware of popular slang. I think they’re purposely making a racey pun to attract the attention of passersby.
Hmmm.. maybe.
Or maybe they made something else up that stands for MILF.
Maybe it stands for Multiple Units of Lovely Furniture
Even though its a clothes shop. SHUDDAP it’s the only thing i came up with!
MULF?
Items (maybe)?
Yep. *agrees* It made me laugh…and while I’ve only studied a little marketing…happy shoppers buy stuff.
Yelyak i don’t know.
I call it win, we need more training centers for such a thing.
Age discrimination I say!
Not around my old estate!
I thought you just used a rinse on the estate.
No, I also took a spin around on my cycle.
I need comfort; King Louie is pretending to be me.
I can see you’re hanging out for a line – perhaps this will help.
So you think you’ve got me pegged?
Well I know that dripping dry is an oxymoron.
Not around my olde state.
If you think that attempt to use modern slang to an advertising advantage is funny –
Think about what that one (IIRC) Marxist terrorist/separatist group has to go through with that unfortunate Spanish-based acronym, in the Phillipines (where, after all, English is a fairly common second language due to the US presence since 1898).
you mean the Moro Islamic Liberation Front?
which results in great headlines like:
2 fishers wounded in MILF attack in South RP
and
2 hurt in MILF attack on banana plantation
–50 houses torched
Strange, I thought it was an acronym in something other than english..
Yeah a bunch of terrorists that change between muslim extremism and psuedo-socialist agendas on a semi-random basis.
And, to most westerners, when they hear headlines like that, they get visions of sexy women with baby carriers rampaging through the countryside….
*lululates*
I can see your luluvula when you do that.
Funny, looks like a win to me.
yap that’s definitely a win haha
What does milf even mean?
man in lady form
*WINces at the redundant, ragged, reverberating and really, really rankling reposts of “win”*
*wanders away, moaning and a little depressed*
*reeeeeeeaaallllllly wants a shot of tequila*
*Pulls out bottle of 1800*
*pours and offers a shot*
*pours another*
*drinks*
Anybody else?
*whew* Perfect! Thanks ever so.
Why does lurk have WN’s bottle of tequila???
*starts to wonder if WN’s body is stashed in a closet somewhere…*
WN? In a closet?? Whatever gave you that idea?
*muffled noises emanate from closet*
WN will likely pay you back in kind for that one Brewski!
He’ll have to come out of the closet first. hehe
*strokes the lion*
You have no idea. We've had much worse than this.Hmm… If “lulu” means “pussy” (which it does in German), and “lemon” in an old person, then:
1. This fits perfectly.
2. Ewwwww!
That’s not a fail, that’s a win!
why would you want to be a Man In Lady Form?
MOM I LIKE FLAKES! XD
Another failure at failing. It’s obviously deliberate, and intended to mean exactly what we take it to mean.
Exactly, Failblog fail
Agreed.
Three stooges fail…
“Emperor, Leader of the Resistance” giving-a-shit-about-quality-of-fails fail.
I told my mom to stay out of that window..
duh.. they know what that means, it’s funny advertising. WIN
LOL! Oh, they did *not* really do this, say it ain’t so! Must have used the same marketing geniuses who told the Republicans that there was no alternate meaning to “teabagging.”
They really did this. We have one of these stores in my town.
No, the republicans know all too well the other meaning, and frankly the targets of the protests deserve the other meaning – they just forgot that many of the opposing group would consider teabagging enjoyable…..
umm…teabagging is what the liberals dubbed what the people were doing at the TEA PARTIES. The republicans used tthe term “teabagging” only when talking about what the liberals said.

*gasp*
a Lululemon in St Lou?
*scampers away to see if I can be a MILF*
<3
MILF IS FUN!
Your mom told me that last night.
Ah, c’mon. There’s no fail here. I worked marketing for these guys, believe me that’s deliberate. They know what that stands for.
Why is it people insist that if something is done deliberately, it can’t be a fail? Some of the most spectacular fails I’ve ever seen came from something someone thought was a good idea and did on purpose.
Not saying that for THIS one, mind you…I actually like this one…but still.
Ya, purposeful or not, there is a meaning opposite of what they are going for. Yes they are playing on the popularity of the other saying, but in the end, they are promoting sexual activity.
*cough* The Titanic *cough*
That’s great
That’s a win in my book!
Yeah, I have to agree. I think this is a win. I know/work with a number of cougarish women who would totally shop at a store with that advertisement.
her names egg monroe shes older
Fail?
This is a total Win
in my opinion
Well, I’m going to bed.
‘Night all!
Haha thats Epic!
Very funny blog!
NOOB
The sign meant to say “Be A Milf” lululemon had this in the widows of each store. It’s not a fail when done on purpose. At least, that’s what I thought.
A fail is anything that looks stupid, stupid.
And this isn’t stupid, stupid.
That’s nothing.
There’s one on Queen Street (in Toronto) that says that camel toe is wrong in HUGE letters.
Exactly. The alway put off color remarks in the windows.
this sign is a win!!!! AWESOME.
/Agreed its a WIN!
It’s Mothers Into Living Fit.
That’s the best made up answer so far.
read other comments. It’s not made up.
Actually, it *is* made up, just that the company made it up, not us.
oohh, so is that what George meant? Or are you sayig that’s how I should have taken it?
OMG What a fail!
ROTFL, Hope for all Moms!

http://www.real-anonymity.pro.tc
If this is fail, I don’t want to know what win is.
Win IMO
Thats a win
This is on purpose… I walk by this particular store every time I go to Bethesda. I see the Blue Mercury sign in the reflection.
Teehee. But it’s not a fail. It’s done completely on purpose. It’s a joke.
I wonder what happens when an innocent gal sees the word, google it at home… only to find out that a ton of porn sites come up from the search results…. lol
Which is why terms like MILF should be included in dictionaries…
Snow White should be able to satisfy her,
her, uhm,
curiosity without excessive advertising exposure.
A joke?
Just prudent business practice.
Sex sells.
That’s a win for sure. MILF FTW!
Ahahaaaa! Yes!!
I think it totally wins
lululemon sux. Ugly clothes, ridiculous prices, and stupid advertising like this.
The best MILFs prefer to be spit roasted.
What is spit roasted?
“Ya, purposeful or not, there is a meaning opposite of what they are going for. Yes they are playing on the popularity of the other saying, but in the end, they are promoting sexual activity.”
And that is bad because…?
Where’s the fail? MILF Win!
Someone explain to me how this is a fail, cuz it seems like an epic win to me
I’m pretty sure they genuinely meant MILF.
I’ve seen their giant window print that says “SAY NO TO CAMEL TOE” with a fun little camel toe cartoon.
This is a win, not a fail
This could actually be a win depending on how you perceive it.
yo mama!
DUDE THATS A WIN HOMEBOY
@@@@@MILFZ FTW!!@@@@@
Knowing Lululemon, that was proabably intentional. I mean, come on… The store had a “Come in Naked, Get Free Merch” Day!
what does MILF mean?
Mother’s I’d Like to F***
I disagree.
WIN!
Yes. Is complete win. WINWINWIN
WHAT WAS THIS SUPPOSED TO BE IN THE FIRST PLACE??!!! BE A MILF AT LULULEMON??!!
well what could you expect? its lululemon: a huge consumer organization.
