  1. jako says:

    OOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

  2. Brewski says:

    Gingerbread man escape plan?

  3. Jules ♂ ♪ says:

    You don’t have to run fast, just faster than the person behind you.

  4. (insert name here) says:

    did he die?

    • Sim0n says:

      Yeap.

      Photoshop attack.

      • JenniBee says:

        Nope, not photoshopped… it’s from the Liberal Arts building at the University of New Orleans. No idea who posted this one, but I have a picture of that sign uploaded on my computer from when I took during a campus visit in January. Gotta love NOLA.

      • Christie says:

        JenniBee is correct- it is indeed not photoshopped, as I brought a camera to campus one day just to take a picture of it before someone finally replaced it with an actual evacuation plan. (It still hasn’t been replaced.)

  5. *Running and running as fast he can*

  6. Anon says:

    Also helpful advice for avoiding bears and Jews.

  7. grannycatflap says:

    don’t forget run

  8. Brewski says:

    OK, all, this is the acid test… remember the petition you signed yesterday!! Willpower!!

  9. I'm not a very good multitasker. I think I'll skip one of the 'Run's.

  10. POB 2.0 says:

    This is the last time they let George Costanza head the Evacuation Plan Committee.

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

    I very much support this evacuation plan.

  12. doN'tbrEakyOurfaCebytryIngtoSaymynAme says:

    This plan is vague…

    What if, say, I where carrying scissors?

    • Leila: Pun-Run Breaker Currently In Training says:

      If you stab someone, you would be in the clear because you did what the sign told you to do. MUST OBEY SIGN!!!!

    • Anniebunny says:

      You should scream FIRE FIRE FIRE first. Then drop those scissors and run like its recess and you’re in kindergarten!

      • Leila: Pun-Run Breaker Currently In Training says:

        But, what if there is no fire?
        -
        I gotta say, this is a much better plan than the one Bush had for hurricanes Katrina and Rita.

        • doN'tbrEakyOurfaCebytryIngtoSaymynAme says:

          Really?

          Was that more like:
          1) Go to nearest kindergarten.
          2) Run but don’t run as fast as you can.
          3) If(fire)
          Yell(“FIRE FIRE FIRE”);
          Else
          Yell(string.random);
          4) Throw scissors in uncontrolled directions.

          ?? ’cause that would’ve sucketh, yes.

        • Blog Ninja (Blogmonster) says:

          Why is it President Bush's fault? We as Americans just keep pushing the blame off on someone else instead of taking responsibility for diseasters like this. Our founding fathers would rolling over in their graves if they knew how much power we keep forcing on the federal goverment.

          • Leila: Pun-Run Breaker Currently In Training says:

            Cuz President Bush doesn’t like black people.

          • Leila: Pun-Run Breaker Currently In Training says:

            Okay, all kidding aside, I am just making a silly statement. Politics is the last thing I want to discuss but the flaw IMO is in the government. They make it too easy for people not to be accountable for their own actions.

            • Leila: Pun-Run Breaker Currently In Training says:

              wtf? I intended to italicize the word ‘just’. Oh well.

            • Jules ♂ ♪ says:

              Ah, but the people are fundamentally flawed, and the government is only a representation of the people. Now a day’s people are out for them selves trying to make the quick easy buck. That mentality spills over into the government, heck it probably draws those types of people in, like a moth to the flame.
              IMO the thing that is wrong with this country is the lack of accountability of a good portion of the population. It’s no longer asked not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country. Instead it’s what is in it for me and how can I get the next buck without doing work.

              • Arthur Eld says:

                *considers selling that comment for a lot of money*

              • Leila: Pun-Run Breaker Currently In Training says:

                Exactly!!! Let’s not get started on illegal immigration. :(

                • *stops packing suitcase and sidles out*

                • Jules ♂ ♪ says:

                  You started it. Actually I don’t see anything wrong with it. I think this country needs people who are willing to do a honest days work for an honest days pay.
                  The argument goes well they just come in to this country and suck up health care and the public school system. However we already have plenty of Americans that do the same. I say if they are willing to work then why not give them a green card welcome them to the country, then start taxing them.
                  Speaking of taxes I think we should legalize weed and prostitution. Just tax the hell out of it, like we do with cigarettes.

                  • Leila: Pun-Run Breaker Currently In Training says:

                    I don’t have a problem with the people who come in here illegally, I have a problem with the government’s red tape. They just do not make it easy.

                    • Jennyisbusy says:

                      not to mention it costs $$$ I used to volunteer in a program that helped immigrants. I was shocked at how difficult it truly is to ‘get legal’ in the U.S. I also didn’t know that immigrants of different origins get treated different!

                  • Anniebunny says:

                    And salvia, which has medicinal use. And grows as weeds pretty much anywhere it can take root.

  13. Jiffer says:

    Forest Gump escape plan

  14. chez ♂ says:

    From the stinky cheese man!

  15. Arthur Eld says:

    This fail is powered by BFF.

  16. Spider says:

    … You can’t catch me, I’m the Gingerbread man.

  17. I almost got the Troll where I want it…
    *takes his zippo out of his pocket*

  18. KatzVonD says:

    Beeeeeep. This has been a test. If this had been a real emergency… we most likely would have died.

  19. Ok ok! It’s over the Troll is dead, this was not a test.. We are safe, for now.

  20. Mr Feather says:

    I don’t think this is a fail. More of a win, I’d say.

  21. 5_eagles says:

    What do you mean audi win or fail?.

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

    Happy Monday everyone! *sips his decaf coffee and smiles happily*

  23. See you tomorrow my friends, I’m off!

  24. WTF is wrong with this people says:

    WTF all u people are messed up

    *squeezes*>>>> messed up

  25. Brewski says:

    Hooray! My post on ICHC finally came through. Today we conquer ICHC, tomorrow the world!! BWAHAHAHAAA!
    icanhascheezburger.com/2009/05/30/funny-pictures-scratching-post-again/

  26. Chloe says:

    cant catch me im that gingerbread man!

  27. kit kat says:

    oh i don’t think it’s a fail, it’s short and simple. What’s wrong with that =) hehe

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

    I just went to loldogs…

    *shivers*

  29. sumgy says:

    You can’t catch me, I’m the gingerbread man.

  30. fjall says:

    The jig is up!

  31. fakey fakerton says:

    HOW IS THIS A FAIL??? SEEMS LOGICAL TO ME.

    ONCE AGAIN, FAILBLOG FAILS HARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    PATHETIC

  32. Megaton Dennis says:

    This sounds like a sound course of action in an evacuation, waving your arms about a bit couldnt hurt either.

  33. Jaded Cynic says:

    Well, technically running *could* result in tripping and falling, thus delaying YOUR evacuation, as well as obstructing other people from evacuating; that’s why evacuation directions typically are to “walk quickly” away from the building. But…

    …yeah, still more like Evacuation Plan WIN.

  34. PsychoDuck says:

    Run run run, as fast as you can, you can’t catch me, I’m the Ginger-fail man.

  35. anne says:

    Can’t catch me because I’m the gingerbread man!

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

    You can totally catch me because I am the Gingerbread Man. Cookies have no endurance, I swear.

  37. uh says:

    this should be an evacuation plan win! :D

  38. NativeDancer says:

    a bunch of kids did that at my school. The school called a giant meeting because the fire department found it. >.>

  39. you cant catch me,im the gingerbread man!!!

  40. ampere says:

    thats about how i feel about my education right now :(

  41. ampere says:

    just curious, probably because ive never actually had to leave a burning building….

    does anyone calmly and quietly leave a flaming room?

  42. poultryshake says:

    You can’t catch me, I’m the evacuation plan! ;D

  43. yugypeerca says:

    Still better than ours, our fire instructions are:
    Step 1: Yell: Fire! Fire!
    Step 2: Try to extinguish it
    Step 3: Call the fire department
    Step 4: WAIT patiently for help

    There is no mention of triggering the alarm, or actually going outside.

    Following posts may contain:
    5: ?????
    6: Did he ….

  44. Ben Dover says:

    I haven’t waded through all the comments, but I might not consider this one a FAIL. Pretty sound advice there…

  45. Smegma says:

    Popopopo!

  46. Age says:

    As if thats a fail, that is a WIN all the way :)
    Wish they put those in my schools, we would pass government inspection with flying colours :)

  47. SR71 says:

    It’s a WIN if you ask me.

  48. Bryonia says:

    LOL!

  49. Nic says:

    This was actually the only evac plan given when my hub worked with battery strings. Once the chemical reaction starts you had better run…..not fail at all!!

  50. natethegreat says:

    ..You can’t catch me I’m the Gingerbread man!!!!

  51. NARF says:

    “IT’S ESCAPED!! ACTIVATE LOCKDOWN PROCEDURE 9273!”
    “Which one’s that?”
    “THE ONE WHERE WE RUN REALLY REALLY FAST!!!”
    *ZOOM*

  52. LMAO says:

    I would call this one a win. lol :P

  53. Gabie says:

    You can’t catch me I’M THE GINGERBREAD MAN!

  54. Isabella says:

    but no one can catch the gingerbread man! (this just popped into my head when i read this!)

  55. XE8) says:

    No matter how meticulously you plan these things, that’s about how a real evacuation always ends up…

  56. CommanderJohnHershman says:

    Well… Its a good plan. Very thought out.

  57. Sharon says:

    I know this, this is from the University of New Orleans! My old Liberal Arts building. I used to see this every day.

  58. J. Vanderwall says:

    Rund and run as fast as you can. You can excape… BECAUSE YOU”RE THE GINGERBREAD MAN mwuhahhaahhahhahhahah

  59. Long Rod von Hugendong says:

    I’d say thats more of a win

  60. liseliask says:

    very good evacuation plan haha:D

  61. ken says:

    “You can’t catch me I’m the fireman!!!”

  62. Steve-O says:

    HAHA, terrible. This is in the Performing Arts Building at the University of New Orleans. I know because I go there.

  63. Luis says:

    I don’t see what the problem is…that’s my plan.

  64. Jackson says:

    Why is this a fail? It’s logic. And even if there was a proper plan, many people “Run and run as fast as they can” anyway.

  65. Nasha says:

    I go for win here too…much more efficient. It just needs an arrow to point which way to run.

  66. Nasha says:

    so who else has ‘accidentally’ tripped a fire alarm before? I have, was walking, kinda running my fingers along the wall as i was going and before I knew it I tripped the emergency fire alarm. We all had to assemble outside the hotel i was working at and got interrogated as to who the culprit was….i’m such a fail sometimes.

  67. Tom_Cruise says:

    i think mines fried

  68. JohnnyLava says:

    this is a win

  69. shire_fanatic says:

    good advice! lol

  70. condomfail says:

    the fire won’t get me
    I’M THE EFFING GINGERBREADMAN!

  71. Dayne says:

    Can’t argue with that logic!

    and how come EVERYONE manages to get off topic when chatting on these sites? before brewski’s last comment for example!

  72. Marissa says:

    … You can’t catch me, I’m the gingerbread man!

  73. dude says:

    good plan

  74. paleasavamp says:

    Everyone simulatinously try to squeeze your fat asses thought the door. Push and shove people PUSH AND SHOVE!

  75. Wulfspade says:

    fail, or win?

  76. maxsteele2 says:

    I’m with you on this one.

  77. lordmudkipz says:

    …you cant catch me im the gingerbread man!

  78. Mr. Dumpling! says:

    ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun!!!!

  79. ilikecheese says:

  80. Kalipto says:

    definitely win

  81. Keeli says:

    If anyone’s wondering, this sign is in a building at the University of New Orleans. I went to school there, and cracked up every time I walked past it.
