    Damn and I hoped for the Greek one.

  2. Avis says:

    The video is a LIE!!

    • Jules ♂ ♪ says:

      Women are always right.

      • Avis says:

        Well, no, but we’re rarely wrong.

        • chez says:

          Since there is no objective right or wrong most of the time, chances are that’s correct.

          • Avis says:

            ;)
            I knew you’d understand!

            • chez says:

              Indeed, it’s all in the fine print :)

              • Emperor, Leader of the Resistance. says:

                Oops wrong contract, see this one has no fine print.

                • chez says:

                  *hands emp an electron microscope* Here, try this.

                • Avis says:

                  I’d say Chez is right about this one.

                  • jobiff says:

                    hot damn! i see spilled hot sauce!

                  • Emperor, Leader of the Resistance. says:

                    I’m not disagreeing, just making a remark on how I wish there never was any fine print. :(

                    • Avis says:

                      In life, it’s nothing but fine print. That’s all.

                      • Emperor, Leader of the Resistance. says:

                        Cheesy time, if all print was as fine as you, I wouldn’t mind it. Hee.

                        • Avis says:

                          *snork*
                          *rolls eyes*
                          The cheese pun-run is up a thread.

                        • Emperor, Leader of the Resistance. says:

                          Oh you just reminded me. Similar situation, I can be suave at times, so I usually just lay out the compliments to my female co-workers. Innocent stuff, you know. Well yesterday one of them admitted she loved working with me because I made her ego so big. Plus side, she is very pretty.

                        • gigeoxy says:

                          I think it’s a bit runnier than you like it…

                        • Emperor, Leader of the Resistance. says:

                          Nah, shes got 10 years on me, a kid and a husband, territory I have a mental block against. If a girl is taken, I put the blinders on, as I would appreciate other guys doing the same.

                        • Admiral Apparent says:

                          Suave: soapy compliments?

                        • gigeoxy says:

                          As long as it’s only a bit suave. Don’t want the bubbles frothing everywhere.

                        • Dragonwriter says:

                          Frothing bubbles is no deter(g)ent!

                          I’m going to start calling Emp “Mr. Collins”.

                          “You may imagine, Sir, how happy I am on every occasion to offer those little delicate compliments which are always acceptable to ladies.”

                        • Dragonwriter says:

                          Stoopit moderation filter. Trying again.

                          “You may i m a g i n e, Sir, how happy I am on every occasion to offer those little delicate compliments which are always acceptable to ladies.”

                        • Judy says:

                          What on earth are you saying, Dragonwriter? I’m butchering and cooking a human being up there for consumption by other human beings, and your comments are being moderated?

                        • Admiral Apparent says:

                          *glances at DW*

                        • Emperor, Leader of the Resistance. says:

                          No admiral, the kind of compliments that make most groan. She asks how are you, I say good now that you are here. :)

                        • Dragonwriter says:

                          Judy, apparently quoting from “Pride and Prejudice” will get you in trouble here.

                          *snorks @ Admiral*

                        • Ms B ♥ says:

                          That darn i-bomb gets me a lot!

                        • Judy says:

                          Color me clueless on that one.

                        • Emperor, Leader of the Resistance. says:

                          And what is with the insult DW?

                        • Admiral Apparent says:

                          You know, you don’t get a second chance to make First Impressions.

                        • Well that explains nothing for me… Just give it to me straight doctor, I can’t take any more of this shtick. (Clickie)

                        • Dragonwriter says:

                          Admiral, your Emma definitely recognizes your powers of Persuasion…

                        • Emperor, Leader of the Resistance. says:

                          Ok, guess this is just one of those times.
                          *le sigh*

                        • Admiral Apparent says:

                          I Sense a Collection of Letters has honed our Sensibility and understanding.

                        • Dragonwriter says:

                          Indeed! Who says that writing great novels is merely a Man’s Field, or a walk in the Park?

                      • Emperor, Leader of the Resistance. says:

                        I’ll take the book of love for 200 Alex ^^^.

                    • chez says:

                      Sadly in this world simplicity is in the mind of the beholder emp. Not that I don’t wish it were otherwise, but I must bow to evidence in this case.

                      • Emperor, Leader of the Resistance. says:

                        Yea, we can never have it our way. I am just going to sulk now. :cry: :cries: :(

                      • Avis says:

                        Emp, I’m still trying to figure out what jobiff was trying to say.
                        And Chez, I sincerely hope you weren’t insulting Dragon or Admiral.

                        • Judy says:

                          *still clueless as to what’s going on*
                          Was it me?

                        • Dragonwriter says:

                          Must. Stop. Using. The. I. Word!

                          *smacks self*
                          *waits for moderated comment to show up*

                        • chez ♂ says:

                          Certainly not, there’s very few people here whom that insult applies to. More a general population sort of thing.

                        • Avis says:

                          See closest above comment. I do not see why that word should be flagged.

                        • Emperor, Leader of the Resistance. says:

                          I think he was saying something about how he enjoys wasting opportunities to talk to pretty women. Especially with stories about spills and his pants. I would have said that Chez is right, once again confirming that you and all women are almost always right. I leave room for error, more commonly known as purposeful loses by women so men still think they are useful. :P

                        • Emperor, Leader of the Resistance. says:

                          The I word gets flagged because with html it can be used as a keyword. Now because maybe they didn’t protect acceptable lengths and heights in the i m a g e s ’s properties I could break word wrap with some code. This would be a no-no and could put replying or commenting in general out of commission for a long time. That or they would have to wipe the entire thread. I m a g i n e me putting a splash p i c t u r e that would take up the whole screen. With some more code, i could get it to follow you as you scroll. Meaning no more posting. :( Seen it done before, ruined some forums for a while till they wisened up. “And now you know.”

  3. Jules ♂ ♪ says:

    I am not sure what I just witnessed.

  4. JasonK says:

    This is a moment of pure wtf-ness.

  5. Cloral says:

    It was the wrong video, but it still matched up really well.

    • gigeoxy says:

      He sure did move his arms and legs!

      • newbie with boobies says:

        Praise the Lord…it’s a miracle!!!!

        • Jules ♂ ♪ says:

          He must be a quaker.

          • gigeoxy says:

            Everyone stand under doorjambs!

            • Judy says:

              I thought you were supposed to sit in the bathtub?

            • 3N says:

              Ahem, I must add something here. That doorjam thing is wront, Wrong, WRONG! Unless you like getting hit by a 30mph door, that is the wrong place to be. You get down NEXT TO a very strong piece of furniture, like a piano. Under the desk will get you killed. Do NOT run outside, get the hell out of the kitchen and get away from the windows. This is for quakes.

              Here in L.A. many of the kitchen cabinets have latches on them because plates and cups can become deadly projectiles. During the Northridge quake my upstairs neighbor was nearly killed by a flying TV. No joke there. It flew clear across the room.

              • Avis says:

                I know a snork is out of place here but… *SNORK*!
                Seriously, most of the safety advice is sound, just think about the area of your home that has THE MOST structure around it. Be it studs, plumbing, or otherwise.

                • N/A says:

                  My cousins neighbor had to replace their bathroom after a thunderstorm. Lightening struck the plumbing, toilet exploded.

    The old throw the fake cripple down the stairs trick….or some variation.

  7. mike says:

    first! oh wait.. nope

  8. chez says:

    Another frivolous lawsuit bites the dust.

  9. WWWouter says:

    haha wat grappig

  10. xylakant says:

    yeah, that fits!

  11. sofaking red hardhat says:

    Hold on this is really important, replay that video i think i see someone i know……..is that Donovan Mcnab?

  12. Blue2thFairy - You can't handle the 2th. says:

    that was alarming.

  13. Blue2thFairy - You can't handle the 2th. says:

    Guess he couldn’t stand it anymore.

  14. jimbo says:

    in case anyone was wondering, the football player that they are supposed to be talking about was paralyzed, i think from the neck down. it was a pretty big deal that he was able to move his arms and legs as no one was sure he’d be able to do that again.

  15. 5 eagles says:

    I am really confused, was this not it or was it the right failblog?.
    In that case was it up or down. The sun is warm today yes?.
    Rewind it and you will see a wheelchair.!

  16. ok, what was that? I have no sound, so all I gathered was that there was a man pretending to be injured, then proving that he wasn’t by kicking cops in a courtroom? feel free to help me understand this.

    • Jimbo is bored says:

      Wrong video for what the anchor was talking about, but it fit surprisingly well. We assume the guy in the video also failed when he started fighting the cops and proved he was ok. That’s all I could gather.

      • Brewski DOT ORG! says:

        Explained above… generally, anchor is talking about a paralyzed athlete that showed some movement in his arms and legs, while video shows guy in wheelchair struggling and kicking. Anchor has a bit of smile as he says “That’s the wrong video!”

  17. Tommy says:

    Where are all the ‘witty’ comment today…? No pithy jokes or self-congratulatory comments today?

  18. sweethooligan says:

    it’s a miracle! he can walk! praise jesus

  19. XPhile says:

    My computer is not loading videos, so I don’t know what this fail is. Rest assured, however, that I would have a very witty and acerbic comment that would leave you all roffling and snorklolling until the cows came home.

                          Did I mention I must give you a tour of my master bedroom.
                          *shows Ms B around the ranch*
                          Now time for the master bedroom
                          *allow for extra time for this portion of the tour*

    Funny how when the videos come up we can basically take a head count of who does this at work and therefore has no sound.

    KING RAMESEEEES!!

    THE MAN IN GAZE!!

    THE MAN IN GAZE!!

    Ahahahahahahahahahahhahaha…no.

  25. let’s start a party again, i am getting bored here at work. I’ve moved on from lying filthy cheats to..umm oh, right logging complaints. arrrggg! *downs 5 shots of Jager, chases w/ lager* ahh, that’s marginally better.

  26. MarkFL says:

    When I saw the still of Pat Murphy, before I hit play, I was sure it was going to actually be Sportscaster Fail. This guy is perhaps the most annoying sportscaster ever. It’s as if he is trying to win a bet to see who can work the most tired sports cliches into one segment. (If so, he must be very wealthy.) He has never — I mean literally, NEVER — started giving hockey scores without saying “On the frozen pond tonight…”

    Gotta give him credit for keeping his composure on this clip, though. At least he didn’t shout, “What f___ are you doing?”

  27. Onionfury says:

    “…doctor’s believe, that’s not the right video…”

  28. thorben29 says:

    i love that smiley in the bottom left hand corner of this page XD

  29. Sculptor says:

    First!

    *angry newcomer hears sounds of death and wanders over to help*

    • ZombieApocalypse says:

      *looks around, see’s no one*
      *attacks Rarr and ferociously rips him to pieces*
      *feasts on the contents of his head, leaves the rest in a bloody heap*
      *staggers off before he’s noticed*

      • Jimbo is bored says:

        Who left a bloody heap in the middle of an active blog!?! That is just inconsiderate! We make sure Jules doesn’t leave piles of anything laying around. Why should we let anyone else get away with it?

    Bye Dragon, BFF, Avis, Judy, Brewski,Aja, Abstract, Jam,Mrs. B, Iusuallylurk, Emperor, Admiral, Mal , Whoa , Jules and last but NOT least my bestest friend Starrrrrrrrrrfiiiiiiiiiish.

    • Aja says:

      “Should I write seven versions of Windows?”
      “Not seven, but seventy-seven.”

      • Avis says:

        I thought it was: “not seven, but seven times seven”?

        • ZombieApocalypse says:

          Hmm, maybe if we write seven hundred seventy seven versions they’ll stop thinking we’re evil.
          .
          Cue up the Imperial March.
          .
          You know it’s truly amazing. People will actually pay hard earned money to be enslaved by their computer operating system, but once the Zombie Apocalypse begins you will all run in fear for your lives. Trust me, win 7 is far worse than being ripped apart by dozens of slathering undead creatures. I should know!

        • fluffy lorem ipsum says:

          I thought it was “Not version seven of Windows, version seven of crap”.

        • Aja says:

          Guess I got confused by the $7.77 thingie earlier today.

      • DrB says:

        I heard seventy-two Aja. Though it won’t take the full six months!

    • Judy says:

      I’m so excited, I’m about to have a Long John Silver’s moment.

  32. Petrander says:

    …but he did move his arms and legs!

  33. Iavor says:

    He did move his arms and legs!He got so tired tho that he wanted to take a bit of rest and tried to lay down on the ground xD

  34. DAllen says:

    OMG He moved his legs! It’s a miracle! Praise the lord!

  35. v-unit says:

    Do you numbnuts ever comment on the actual video or just loose your self in your mindless self gratification of *squeezes* and pointless chatter?

  36. Nick says:

    God can’t you guys find some forum to post your pointless comments?

    I for one thought that was hilarious

  37. Kay says:

    the fail is that this stupid video isn’t loading

  38. EverUpperClassHighSociety says:

    error loading please try again later… fail. All videos should do that on this site.

  39. topi says:

    I laughed so hard :D D

  40. Eternal says:

    TO those of you thinking the guy in court was faking: If you listen you can hear him do a quick intake of breath from what sounds like pain. I’m not saying he wasn’t pretending to be unable to walk I’m just saying he may in fact HAVE been hurt and just been over-acting. Also it could have been that he was hurt and they didn’t want him using cruches because they could be used as a weapon in a pinch.

    Those cops sure got on him FAST which makes me think that he was in there for something violent and the were prepared.

    • Bob Loblaw says:

      He was on trial for murder and the judge was reading the verdict if I recall the story. Wasn’t long ago and I believe the sports dude is here in Miami. Don’t watch the local news that often, it’s generally smoke and mirrors…

  41. Spaz says:

    this video failed so bad i felt like i succeeded. and i just found out my grlfriend’s mom is my dealer. when i tried to pick her up for prom.

  42. Cheri says:

    That was the best!

  43. AdmiralApparent says:

    That was the wrong video clip!
    (Chicken Gyro please)

  44. Divided by zero says:

    First thing they teach you in journalism class: when you have established that a video is the wrong video, always make sure that your audience is aware that it is not the right video.

  45. Mia says:

    Lmao, I feel like i fail as well cause thats my local new station…

  46. Retarded comments all of u.

  47. Sam says:

    How did it come to this.

  48. Leopold says:

    Dead link, apparently.

  49. sayray says:

    POOR GUY! They smashed his fingers when they wheeled him up to the table. You’d flinch too if it happened to you!

  50. Best video from failblog for sure!

  51. AW says:

    Guys, this is the funniest video if you know who Kevin Everett is. He playedfor the Buffalo Bills and was paralyzed.He has been making a recovery, but the video they showed was entirely the wrong video. When the guys was moving and kicking and getting a beatdown by the cops in the courtroom, and then having the sportscaster say it was the wrong video with a straight face, hilarious! It was an inside job maybe, but for that to air, priceless! Best fail ever!
