*sets joe mama on fire*
*watches as joe mama screams*
*kills joe mama*
Somone forgot to go to their anger management class this morning…

Why are you addressing yourself in the second person?
Hello GBF. finaly gots me a gravtar.

Thats not nice.

Did he break a leg?.
Who do you think set fire to him? He must have really wanted that job.
i’m okay….
….just a lil crispy
*reviews Jules’ comments*
Nope. Nope, you didn’t.
But he could have.
Then why mention it in a reply to me?
Now boys…lower your hackles and go make some nice comments about how handsome all your fail-friends are.
Don’t make me come over there and administer more wedgies.
Omg, that made me *SNORK* last night…!
That aside, I always celebrate my birthday by being murdered and set on fire. I don’t get the fail…
I pooped on a piece of bread on time, folded it over and ate a poop sammich.
*one
well, at least you did it on time
It’s the beginning. If you listen right you hear that his coworker was set on fire. I had to watch it a couple of times, too. Nice catch on the fail whoever posted it.
comprehending sarcasm fail
defensive comment x2 = fail
the true is that i´m not can speak very well english because i´m spanish but it´s really
Well put.
*wonders if INR is just taking part in the whole “show-your-real-face”-thingy*
*snork*
*ROFL!*
Ha Ha I snorked!
Run-on sentence fail.
Punctuation is important even on teleprompters!
I ♥ teleprompters!!!!
I’m not allowed to speak without one.
I did not have sexual relations with that teleprompter.
I let you keep the cigar. It’s from Cuba.
Hate to say it guys, but I was Fir, I became president before you all.
*sweats and tugs at tie*
There’s nothing to see on this teleprompter! Nothing at all…
PIC! PIC! PIC!
SHOW YOUR PIC! SHOW YOUR PIC! SHOW YOUR PIC!
This is really a weird thing to shout, as in Dutch “pik” means “d*ck”.
LULz
*fluit tussen tanden*
Jeez, he’s 15! Give him a break!
Sorry, czuhc, but do to certain precautions I must take (I’m still 15) I cannot reveal my true face yet. Until I’m a bit older, my face will be a mystery. Sorry if anyone desperately wanted to see how I looked like.
15?
*eyes BFF suspiciously*
Yes, 15. What’s wrong with me being a teenager? Are you being ageist? ARE YA? HUH?!
*eyes Jenny and makes an “I’m watching you” sign with fingers*
Did you wash your hands, young man?
Of course. I always wash my hands when I come home. It’s a hygeine issue.
How are you, Arthur? I can’t see your new avatar. From what I gather from the comments, it’s your fingers, isn’t it?
Dragon is just making stuff up…
Am not.
Pllbbbtttt! :p
*squeeze*
We are showing our faces now??? *bunny paws covering her face* hmmm…..
GBF: 15 really?
I am watching you, eye me and make “I’m watching you” sign with fingers, while I eye you suspiciously.
*starting to get confused already*
I still know it is you emperor.
And actually showing the whole headline.
That’s a good excuse for missing work!
Yeah, but it makes it tough to come back the next week.
“Welllll, I got better!”
Most people walk through their work day like zombies anyway. I doubt the bosses would notice any difference.
A lot of people are dying for the weekend to arrive.
(The artwork takes on new dimensions now that we can compare it to your pic. Both are lovely.)
None more than Malicite. He thinks it’s Thursday today. Poor chap.
Your pun license must have expired already.
Leila, your private pun instructor would be rolling in his grave if he were dead.
Ooooh, she’s going to be mortified…!
/MORTIFIED
*rips diploma out of Leila’s hands*
She pretty much killed the mood.
That pun-run was getting murderous anyways.
A plate of crow for Leila?
It’s deceased.
That’s okay, it was a dead-end anyway.
Poor leila…
That’s because they can’t pass away those fun activities.
)
(Shucks..
He is just tiring to identify with the working stiffs to raise his ratings.
And yet the bosses want them to work with more rigor.
And mortis enthusiasm.
Of corpse, this is harder than it looks.
It’s not like magic, where all you have to say is abra cadaver.
Birthday menu–Boston Cremation Pie
I will try to (de)compose myself … may I get my certificate back please?
You’ll have to urn it, Leila.
You’re killing, right?
It would be a grave mistake to think so.
Do you have a lozenge? This coff(in) is driving me crazy.
I will perish without my certificate.
OK, you’ve urned it.
*hands diploma back*
YAY!!!! I will quietly depart now before I mess up again.
I am so tired I could got for an eternal sleep.
My goodness, you people are slaying me here.
I represent that!
*smooch* you made me lol!
How many times do you have to be told NOT to kiss the decomposing corpses? Here, clean up.
*hands disinfecting ShamWow to abstract*
There’s one issue at hand. Abstract is but an idea without for, can you clean one that is not truly definitive?
LOL, monty python win
Monty Python WIN
Burned? Oh no, not Dana!
Oh, murdered too? Well at least she won’t have to look in the mirror. Burns leave horrible scars.
Does her My Space still exist I wanted to put one last stupid comment on there!
Unfortunately not. I think when she was burned, the microchip melted.
Before or after it activated the deletion process?
She was murdered first, remember, then burned.
Dying is a traumatic experience. It scars most people for the rest of their lives.
Well, actually the scars are more a result of the burns…
I meant mental scars. I’m still traumatized by my death as a Mongol warrior back in 1223.
Tell me about it.
On second thought, scratch that.
Okkkkkkkk! *surreptitiously calls pharmacy*
“Hi, I’d like to refill Brewski’s meds… STAT! Thank You!”
Sit tight Brewski, I’ll be right back.
*sits tight*
*starts shaking*
Anyone got ritalin, he has got the shakes.
*Administers 20cc of ritalin into brewki’s arm*
And deletes their Facebook account.
Helluva birthday party. I’m guessing he didn’t get a playboy bunny cake.
Someone wanted to get rid of his MySpace profile.
He was probably too old for the chip implant.
dang! olmost first!!!! NOOOOOOOOO!!!
Ulmer ulcers?
SHUT IT. Swrrl Grrl. Lolz
Hey, you have no right to tell any of the regulars, or newcomers, to shut up. JasonK said nothing that insulted you, so why would you insult Jason?
Don’t seek any reason in there. I can hardly understand where the hell that came from.
Not. Look at the avatars … they’re similar, but distinctly different.
*sigh*
Do you guys have to put up with such things?
Sorry, DW.
I was just trying to prevent misinformation from spreading.
Noooooooooo!! I meant do you have to deal with such trolls as this?
*gives AP a cookie*
*passes out a hyooge pile of chips*
WOOHOO!!!
*puts out a large pot of dip for the chips*
*takes large helping of pot – ignores the rest of the words.*
You would of been first if you hadn’t been eating a tofo sandwich LOL.
now, why in the world would i EVER eat a tofo (you mean tofu?) sammich?!?!?!?!
No tofoooooy across the room sandwich. It is lunch time girl.
oh. yeah it is lunch time. sorry, i dont belive in eating at a certain “time”. i eat when im hungry. right now im not hungry. also, i dont get that “tofooy” thing.do you mean tofo like gross?? in that case, i normally say “blehh!”as in barf
?? I ♥ tofu! When I order soup from the Chineese place I ask for extra tofu, no meat. And i’m not even a vegitarian.
i have actually never tryed tofu… i have heard that it is very bland…
It takes the flavor of what it is mixed with sometimes. I happen to love it!
*ponders wether or not to try tofu sometime*
*ponders tofu fried in bacon grease*
*ponders tofu fried in bacon grease with bacon bits on top*
*drools*:P
wait…. are we talking about the FOOD tofu or ME tofu????
lolz!!!! um
the food…
Remember the evacuation plan Tofu? Run!
Oh yes eat tofu mogu mmmmmmm. Where is zombie when I need him.
*starts panicking and flees into chinese resturaunt, where people are eating tofu* NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Quick, grab a pu-pu platter to use as armor!
it’s awesome in sweey & sour soup. I suggest it w/ spicey seafood and vegies.
*mouth waters*
Time is an illusion.
Lunchtime doubly so.
*totally agrees*
Are you a veg head?
You don’t like tofu?.
never tried it
Operation Tofupoint?
whares that pesky moomin gone?
*points over yonder while hiding Moomin under his shirt* I think he’s in a cave at the bottom of the Grand Canyon.
No no, I believe I last saw him in an underwater sea cave in the Indian ocean.
He’s most definitely hiding out on the moon. Moomin are capable of surviving in a vacuum, so that works with him.
*checks her vacuum cleaner*
Well – I know somewhere else he’s not.
You would have to get thru all of us first to get to The Moomin.
Even though he tried to eat you yesterday, Leila?
That he did but I sorta tried to roast him on an open fire. Water under the bridge.
*immediately buries self at the mention of “fire”*
The Moomin tried to eat Leila yesterday? I don’t believe it! LIES! ALL LIES!
Believe it! It was horrifying!!!!!!
I don’t know.
*hope my excessive squeezing and sniffing isn’t noticed*
Shhh! Quit bustling about! Someone’s sure to catch on!
But everytime I squeeze him I get a little puff of sweet marshmellowy air.
*squeeze and snifffffffff*
ahhh
*bear hugs Jenny(and apparently Moomin)*
And to head off the trolls, YES, he died.
*snork* Thank you Avis!
*snork*
It actually works in this case. Well I guess they had be right once in their life.
*snork*
.
*squeeze*
.
I love you, Avis!
.
*squeezes all around*
*squeeze*
Aww… thanks!
You’re welcome!
.
I’ve been sitting here waiting to pounce on the first death troll.
.
And I’m only leaving my photo avatar for today. Tomorrow it’s back to the disco ball.
Pretty!!
And we’re boycotting the death trolls, but feel free to pounce on a troll that looks like it might actually provide some entertainment value.
Avis or me? I’ll accept it for both of us! LOL! Thanks!
.
Actually I intend to ignore them. But since someone actually did die in this one, I was all ready for the sarcastic response. Alas, they realize it would be a stupid comment on this one.
When has that EVER stopped a troll?
Never, before today! It’s a historic event! Someone notify Wikipedia.
*Squeeze*
Hiya Velvet!
*squeezie*
.
Hey there! They’re re-routing the entire network in the office today, so I’m in & out depending on which zone they’re doing.
“former disco ball”? Did you put a pic up, too?
I’ll go clear and refresh for the zillionth time today.
brb
Yup, there’s a pic. You look familiar. But then, phots the size of a dime can make anyone look different.
.
Me, I’m really that pale. I’m one shade away from clear.
Now see? In mine, it’s the end of summer and I’m not usually that tan. And in the pic I’m REALLY tan. For me.
I go from pale to pink to burst into flames to peeling and back to pale.
Mine is office lighting. Never very flattering.
I feel your pain Velvet. I’ve already been sunburned once this year.
I have the skin of a red-head. Nothing but bright red or white for me, no in-between.
Fluorescent lights are evil and must be destroyed.
*curses stupid office lights*
Oh, I burn! You can’t tell but my hair has a lot of natural red in it, but oddly enough, I tan. Eventually. After the burn fades.
I have a full, red, beard. My people are from Scotland and Sweden, so you can guess how my skin responds to anything but fog…..
You are all very pwetty.
*immediately looks down, shuffling feet in sand*
Now, if we could just take the heads off the trolls we’d be even better!
I volunteer for the job!
P.S: I changed my avatar again to a better (sort of) pic.
Hee…I come to my beloved Failblog and don’t recognize most of you! I guess someone declared it “Show your Face” day, hm?
It’s nice to get to see what you guys look like.
Whereas I’m so new (here) I’m trying to remember what the avatars were before they changed, to make the connection!
LOL – me too! It’s like everyone is in costume or something. I’m puzzled.
*trying very hard not to type in lolspeak*
Please forgive me if I slip up!!!
I’m a disco ball.
.
Brewski is a McKenzie brother.
.
Aikiwaza is Hobbes.
.
Avis is a bird.
.
Judy is a flower or a house (she keeps changing it on me!).
.
Mr. Cuddles is the yellow squeezie dude.
.
Does that help? Who did I forget?
I am a butterfly made of flowers.
This avatar brought to you by the letter “B”.
I’m a carpet tile, apparently.
I’m normally a zombie.
Sorry, guys! I was trying to think quickly before others posted ahead of me.
.
Aja, I was thinking Persian rug design. Not necessarily the rug, but the design.
I am just a plain ol’ hibiscus.
Correction: star gazer … but I can’t see the damn thing.
It’s a patch in a patchwork quilt in fact. I sometimes replace patches in my avatar.
I whish I could change my avitar to a picture but my work will not allow access to gravitar. I would put a direct link to my picture but they go under moderation. So I guess you guys don’t get to see the real me until I get off from work later tonight.
Leila, do you still see the angry red cabbage? The Stargazer is prettier!
Avis, I see my previous hibiscus – never got to see the scary cabbage nor my stargazer. It’s hopeless.
I shaved.
Czuhc is a hottie!
.
All the guys here are hotties! Wow!
Thank you Velvet. I always suspected that this was an attractive group, but couldn’t prove it.
How did this “show your face” thing start?
Oh, wow, that is a terrible picture of me…
Hammy!! You look just as I i m a g ined you would!!
It’s not, hammy. You’ve been away too long, by the way.
Well, the school year is almost out. For the past few weeks I’ve been busy, busy, busy with my culminating assignments. But fear not, my last exam is next Friday, so after that I’m free as a bird.
Oh, hammykins, you’re even cuter in person.
I agree…you’re absolutely adorable, hammy.
He is, isn’t he? Such a sweetie.
LOL — I’ll figure it out when everyone goes back to “normal” (whatever that might be) tomorrow.
Nice to see you here in any event, nightshayde!
*curtsies to Judy*
Thanks! It’s nice to be here! As a bonus, it’s another distraction from work.
What is this thing you call…work?
No, you’ve got it backwards – it’s the work that’s the distraction!
*clears cache and reloads page*
*suffers same problem DW does*
*feels like a stranger all over again*
*realizes that’s normal*
I think I have started a trend, it’s all Mal’s fault, I swear!
Wha’did I do?
Well, I felt bad for you because you were the only one with an actual pic, so I thought I would join you.
*squeeze* Thank you!
I have an actual pic as well, but it’s cropped in on my chest.
That’s just super!!!
If you guys want a pic of my face hit the clickie
*hits the clickie*
Too dark … can’t see your face.
Try this one.
Apparently you are sicker than we all realized…
*copies and pastes from Jimbo’s Myspace*
“hey rapist, when are we going to go take a shit on your back porch?”
Yeah, I have some very twisted friends……
*tries this one* Much better!
Party much?
I used to, yeah. I don’t exactly remember that pic being taken….
Love the Myspace song Jimbo!
Arthur started it… sort of.
Yeahyeahyeah – blame Arthur for everything!
*waits for Arthur to join the avatar picture party.*
Whaddaya mean – that IS me!
LIES!!
Why is it that you and Moomin are so secretive about your appearances?
BTW, when I changed my avatar half an hour ago, something went wrong and I briefly uploaded a picture of myself in swimming trousers. Did anyone see that?
Unfortunately, no.
Hmmm…upload it again and I’ll be able to tell if you if I’ve seen it before.
Now let’s see…
Happy now?
Pssst! Arthur has hairy knuckles! Pass it on!
The sexiest digits on failblog!
I demand a re-do!
I’ve got it right here! $2.00 per reprint, ladies!
yes, and you are the cutest czuhc that I know!
It is, Dragon. Didn’t you get the memo?
And to head off the trolls better, no reply needed whatsoever.
I didn’t think trolls were organized enough to have a leader.
Which is why they’ll never be able to take over FailBlog. Thank goodness for small favors!
You are a girl?! Kwesukk. LOL.
How did you not know that?
Your picture!.LOL
I don’t know how to put up a avatar yet….let alone a picture.LOL.
I went to avatar signed up etc… but with no success.
Go to gravatar.com. follow the instructions there. When back at faiblog enter the email that you used to sign up at gravatar. Then wait a few minutes (it takes some time) and clear your cache and reload the page.
Joined the revolution, this one is of me in Cuba a year back.
Am I too late?
I mean, how did you not know BEFORE that I am a woman? We told you SEVERAL times!
That would require reading, comprehending, and caring. If any of those are missing then 5_eagles would remember.
D’oh!
*throws an “n’t” up into the last post*
S’Ok, I knew what you meant.
I should have realized that.
Wow… this is weird seeing a face with the comments. It gives them a new dimension of personality!
I know, Arthur is having issues with it too, further down the page.
It is odd. I think that – on an unconscious level- our reactions to a person, or even sympathies, in an environment like this are partly determined by the avatars. I briefly had an agressive avatar of a Balrog and I started disliking myself! What is happening now is very interesting from a psychological and sociological point of view.
I wonder what would happen at a luche libre match if they all took off their masks. They probably wouldn’t be able to get into character.
I totally agree. Of course, what happens here almost every day is like an anthropological case study. Some people act here the way they’d like to act out in the world. Others come here to be completely different. I think I’m one of the former, I’m much more likely to speak my mind here than out there. Here I can be my snarky self and not actually get slapped, something that is bound to happen eventually.
I, too, feel I’m more myself here than in some other situations.
I’ve waxed on this before, czuhc, but I think the avatars have much less effect on perception when they are not head shots. Without actual faces, we rely more heavily on our words when gauging each other. Avatars that are not faces are very pliable when it comes to associating personalities to them.
That said, you’re a handsome man, czuhc.
Hm, perhaps I should change my avatar. I’m not ever sure why I chose the McKenzie bros. Just spur of the moment I guess. Afterward it briefly occurred to me that people would think I was a goofy drunk or something.
Actually, I can be, but only on occasion.
No brewski, I like yours!
And Admiral, as boring as that might be: I agree with youuuzzZZZzz…
@Admiral: Don’t you think it humanizes us a little more to see the person we are talking to instead of just an avatar. I understand where you are going with the whole let the words do the talking and such. That being said it reminds me of a webcomic I saw about arguments over the internet, seeming as I cannot find the link part I will have to add it to my post. Tell me your thoughts on what you think of it, it seems relevant to what I am trying to communicate.
{http://xkcd. com/438/} The alt text is what clinches it in my opinion. It is easier to be an a$$whole to words than to people.
Don’t know why it used that picture and name, but sorry about that.
This comments section is going to look really odd after we all go back to our old avatars. They change back even in past fails.
I’m not changing mine ’cause it would change on ICHC too.
Hmm, and I don’t think I have any of myself (just the cats…).
If you use a different email address here (and upload a new pic to that addy on gravatar) you could have different pics for each site!
Of course, then you’d have to keep them straight and all.
Too … much … thinking …. bad.
*brain explodes*
Yeah, there are some folks who do that on ICHC in order to have multiple personas to post with. It can get a little confusing (though mistakes can be funny too), so I’ll just stick with my kitteh.
Ohai, NS! *squeeze*
Sorry, you’ll need to go back to Cheezland for the CCC.
We’ve had some problems with people creating multiple identities here and not telling anyone…usually just to post anonymously in order to act like an ass with no consequences. And, invariably, they also mess up and are hoisted ‘pon their own petard! Mwuaahahahaaa….
Oh, and nightshayde…you needn’t bother holding those thoughts in here. We have no CCC to put you back together, so it’s really much more healthy to just let it out!
Damn. Must…refresh…before…posting!
*catches a whiff*
*peeks from grave*
*sees exploded gray matter*
*cleans it up*
*consumes it*
*looks satisfied – for now*
*crawls back into grave*
See, nightshayde? We even welcome the dead here. We have our own zombie-in-residence.
It’s an all-inclusive site?
*looks for the tray of apple martinis*
Right here!
*holds out tray*
Help yourself.
Thanks! How did I miss that?
I brought some snacks — please help yourselves. There’s a tray of cheesecake bites over there *points to table to the left of the door,* and a tray of veggies & dip on the small round table next to that. Enjoy!
*noms veggies*
Thanks!
We’ve had some problems with people creating multiple identities here and not telling anyone…usually just to post anonymously in order to act like an ass with no consequences.
I was a good TRRoll though.
Interesting concept.
You were very, very rude to me as TRRoll. I didn’t like it one little bit.
Truth czuhc, when you pretended you were one of Dragon’s students I wanted to throttle you.
@Dragon: Huh, was I ? Strange, I can’t remember that. The whole idea of creating TRRoll was to scare the real trolls away. I hve a vague recollection of pretending to be one of your students, but I thought that it was pretty apparent that I was just pulling your leg. Or are you referring to another occasion?
BWAHAHAHA!
TRRoll says to DW:
January 22, 2009 at 11:24 am
WOOO! I is one of yer funny an engaged studints! No0b/.
spnuk on your t1ts!
FIRST
I didn’t know it was you czuhc–I thought it was just a troll. So when it turned out to be you, I was sorta upset. I had no idea why you would want to humiliate me like that.
*hangs head in shame*
Parody gone awry
*hands Czuhc self-flagellater*
Don’t use it for longer than 36 hours in a row!
I’m also a bit shocked, czuhc. I think you went a bit too far with the “spnuk on your t*ts”.
Ancient history. *squeeze*
It was another multiple personality experiment gone awry. Those tend to end badly.
Got carried away by the persona. Let’s speak no more of it.
My apologies to all those offended. Don’t let it spoil your evening.
*squeezes Czuhc*
You’re great, my friend!
It’s okay…I feel better knowing you weren’t actually trolling me! *squeeze*
die troll LOL.
i am really sorry i mistook you for a man. Please forgive me.
*forgives*
I just don’t know HOW you thought that! Granted, I don’t talk about wearing skirts or anything like that, but I thought I was relatively clear as to my gender without my having to actually say it.
I my culture a woman is defined in how she acts then speaks.
I do not act like a man.
I am hoping that maybe she is not good at assigning genders based on words & meant that b/c she can’t see you (act) that you just simply got labeled male.
I also make so many jokes on here I could possible be male, who’s wife named Jenny is busy.
Don’t take it personal and keep ripping Brewski’s pants off – that always helps.
Sheesh! I’ve only been here since yesterday and I know Avis is female.
THANK YOU!
I mean really! My name is a link to my blog, and I’m pretty darn clear about my gender there!
*feels a little off*
*feels Aja*
*pets fluffy*
*sniffs Jules’ butt*
I am feeling violated for you Jules.
Uh, Mr. Clinton?
Let it go Judy. hehe
HAHAHAHA! Clinton at his best!
I left the name as Clinton by mistake, but in hindsight, it was actually very appropriate.
I didn’t know he was swinging both ways…
*snorkroffle!*
Mm, free haptotherapy.
he’s here somewhare
I don’t get it.
Listen closely to what he is saying.
you should try asking for it next time
Are you making a statement? Is that really you?
That’s pretty much an epic fail.
Well, this IS FailBlog!
*kicks Ariel into pit of doom*
You might want to look up the word, “epic” and reconsider your usage.
that b@stard bastida needs to get his facts straight!
Or pause once in awhile.
acutally, if you listen closely, they cut out and skipped at :09
a cut ally?
Photoshopped! It was photoshopped! Can’t you see the pixels?
.
*tries to keep a straight face*
*can’t*
Zombie, your face is never straight.
point taken
I can’t get used to seeing my face up there. Who’s next?? Aiki? Avis? MMC? Ms B dancing naked? Come on, we want to see a real pic for one day!
You want to see what I really look like? Let me see what I can do. I can’ make any promises though.
Oo! You’re a hawtie, mr cuddles!
*wolf whistles @ mr. cuddles*
Oooh, mr. c – I think you need … uh … “adjusting” again. Here, let me help you with that….
*giggles*
I changed mine to my real pic. Clear your cache and refresh.
I can’t even see what you look like. My company has it blocked so I can’t clear my cache.
I haven’t been able to see my OWN avi since I changed it, what, last week?
Let me know if it changed.
You can also go to my clickie if you want to see what I look like.
Aw…mr cuddles.
Remind me to hump your leg later, k?
The clickie is a great pic. I can’t quite see your avatar very well. Looks like you’re in a car??
ctrl-refresh (either the button or F5) works too.
Forces it to re-load pictures from the source (at least in IE).
Mr. Cuddles is seriously sexy!
.
Shoot, all the guys on here are sexy. I was expecting a bunch of pimply-faced teenagers. A pleasant surprise!
.
But I am having a tough time keeping the thread placements striaght in my head with all the new pics.
There you are! Woohoo!! Hey there hot stuff!!
*smooch!*
I just can’t keep up with everyone! I keep getting myself misplaced.
.
*grabs Brewski & tosses him in the convertible with Aiki, Judy, & me*
Road Trip!!!
Yeee-haw!
Awesome!
Wait a minute, who’s driving??
*takes a swig of dragon-grog*
Not I! :p
*jumps in the back seat*
*looks longingly at the dragon-grog*
Please tell me BFF isn’t driving this thing!
Well, I hope somebody at least hit “cruise control”!
*eyes DW’s dragon grog warily*
*pokes head out of driver’s seat*
Hullo, everyone! Don’t worry I’ve had plenty of experience driving this-
*swerves off cliff*
Caaaaaaaarrrrrrr….
*peers over the cliff*
Oh. Oh dear. Oh my.
*calls for help*
*hopes the first responders are hot*
*flies up over cliff clutching friends in talons*
Damn. We lose more Jeeps this way…
Would whoever is driving watch the bumps? I almost spilled my drink!
YAY!
Is that a post-haircut piccie?
Not today’s haircut but yes, shorter.
In fact, it does look pretty much like this now.
mmm you do look cuddly
I’ll say, even I think he looks cuddly! If I weren’t straight…
You’re quite the cuddly-wuddly yourself, Brewski!
*double-squeeze*
Uh, a double-squeeze!! I am getting me some of that. *joins Brewski & Judy*
*triple squeezie*
You’re just going to remain the “mystery woman”, eh Leila?
I don’t keep anything personal on my work computer. Would this do?
-
*holds a framed pic of herself to monitor*
A framed pic of yourself. Narcissist much Leila?
Nope. Not good enough. But I suppose it’ll have to do.
*sigh*
It changed. I gotta say, it’s kinda cool to be able to put a face to the names around here.
*tries again with im-age*

I see you! Hawaiian shirt and all!
(in the link, not the avatar)
Good pic, Jules.
It really helps, doesn’t it! I like it.
I am feeling a little exposed. I will be changing back tomorrow.
Aaack! My name!
OMG
Try leaving the site and coming back, sometimes that works. Or shutting down your computer for a minute. I’m only guessing here.
They block your cache? How do they do that? What browser are you using?
I use Internet Explorer at work. Let me try looking on my blackberry.
So did Aiki and Ms B!
Kinda hard to see me, but definately one of the best I have at work.
I don’t photograph well, so I tend to hide behind the kiddos.
I’m just glad I could crop my pic, otherwise you’d see a friend behind me making a ridiculous face and the giant brandy snifter in my hand full of test tube tequila shots. I was more than a little drunk that night.
Are you wearing glasses in that picture?
*hands Avis a test-tube tequila shot*
I’m always wearing glasses. I’m building a collection of them.
The funny part about the pic? I don’t drink tequila! I was drinking beer that night. Lots and lots of beer. And then later that night someone brought out jello-shots. This was last August.
I wore glasses from the 7th grade until 2006 when I had LASIK done. I donated all of my glasses and their cases. It filled up the entire donation box!
I have one pair but don’t always wear them. My eyes are pretty good.
So velvet, care to join our avatar picture party?
Psst! Brewski! She did!
I got contacts years ago. I hate when I have to revert to my glasses.
I am blind as a bat. I have glasses but usually I wear contacts.
I wish I could wear contacts. I’m also as blind as a bat, but I have to wear bifocals and I have an astigmatism. Contacts just can’t do it for me.
DW, I wore contacts up until around 2001 when my eyes became contact lens intolerant. I couldn’t wear them for more than 2 hours before they started to hurt. LASIK is a gift from God!
*thought LASIK was a gift from Doctors*
*learned something new today*
That’s another thing I plan to do when I have $$$.
I actually like my glasses. Especially the orange ones (not pictured). I’ve warmed to the idea that they are just another accessory, and one I NEED so why only have one pair? I mean, I have more than one pair of earrings, so why not glasses?
I really like having peripheral vision.
Same here, Dragon.
It sucks, doesn’t it? I’ve been wearing bifocals since I was 21.
Just reading glasses for me, though I’m afraid that might change real soon.
I’ve been wearing glasses since high school, but just had to go to bifocals with my new prescription. That was last month, and there are times when it makes me nauseous, especially if I glance down at my feet (which are too far away to be in focus in the “special window”).
I feel for you, DW *squeeze*.
Awww…! That effect will go away in a couple of weeks. The first few weeks I wore bifocals I fell down the stairs twice, fell off a curb, and ran into a pole.
*squeeze*
Just to get the universe into balance again: I have excellent eyes.
*does a happy dance*
I did, too, AE. I didn’t think I was ever going to need glasses, but then I had a rather rapid change in near focus. Enjoy it while it lasts.
Grrr. Thanks for making me fear that I’ll suddenly lose that. I’ve heard similar things about my ears, about allergies, my never-getting-fat…
I hope at least one or two of these features will be there for a little longer!
I stupidly signed a piece of paper when I was like 11 that said I would never get fat, pregnant or married.
OOPS
Try surgery?.
to have my hubby removed?
I’m there (hence the ‘former disco ball’ title).
.
*refresh*
.
Can you see me now?
I have always found girls with glass to be very attractive.
*grabs Velvet and jumps into the convertible*
Wheeeeee!
.
But let’s leave the top up! It looks like it will rain any minute now.
No problem. *packs a picnic basket and put umbrellas into the trunk*
Did you remember your “picnic supplies”?
*snork!*
*grabs a glass, smiles broadly*
*facepalm*
Thank you for the pointer.
*Grabs everyone and puts them in the convertible*
It’s a super stretch convertible.
*runs to catch up*
*gets even with the rearmost door and somersaults in*
How about the beach? I brought some maitai ingredients.
Where’s the hot tub? WIK, grab us some towels and we’ll meet Aiki and Brewski in it.
WEEEEE!!
*cannonballs into hot tub*
Oh no, I forgot to change! Now my pants are all wet!
There go Brewski’s pants. Again.
Well, we knew it was only about time.
Hey, they’re just wet, not missing! Gee whiz guys, don’t jump to conclusions.
But now that you mention it, they’re mighty uncomfortable!
*rips off pants*
Aaaawww…look at Brewski’s little friends! Aren’t they cute????
*claps hand over eyes*
Just tell me he didn’t change his avatar again to show us…
*takes pics of pantsless Brewski*
Lurk! Woohoo! Is that you??
Yup. That’s me. My daughter took the pic of me wearing her silly sunglasses. I don’t have many of me, because usually I’m the one behind the camera.
I know, Lurk, me too! I went looking. I have collections of pics at races, cruise, all kinds of events, but rarely do I find one of me at them!
A happy drunk non the less!
B, it’sa wonderful picture! Cute lil’ girl! And the baby is cute too!
Thanks Skwerlly!
I do the same thing, Ms B.
Well — behind my kid. Not your kids.
Jam, Aiki, Mrs. B, Brewski, Avis, WhatIKnow, & who else?
Does everyone know how to blow up the avatars from Icon Size to a viewable size?

Here you are Brewski. A real pic for the day. Not a great one, but the better of the two I had at work.
Yay! *squeezes Avis and aiki*
Just as I suspected, everybody on failblog is remarkably attractive and intelligent.
I must say you are almost exactly what I was expecting (that’s a good thing!) It’s nice to put a face to the people here.
I changed mine again from a few minutes ago, so if you still have the shadowed one with the sunglasses, clear the cache.
HAY! Like how long does this new moderation crap take?
I posted a “how to” on blowing up the Avatar pics to a reasonable viewing size, but it “is awaiting moderation.”
Hm. How do you do it? You didn’t use the “i” word did you? (I-mage)
I I-magi-ne he did.
.
And I think you and I are the same age, Brewski! *squeeze*
*squeeze* When I was in school (grade school through HS) I always looked older than everybody else. I loved that! In college it meant I could get into bars and not get carded. Now I’m realizing it’s not that great any more!
I have a very close-cut beard, hard to tell in the pic.
I spotted the beard right on. But, most of my guy friends have one like yours including the grey.
.
I look younger than I am, which I hated as a kid (I kept getting carded until I was 27). But I love it now!
I got carded yesterday at a Chipotle. I didn’t have my ID and they almost didn’t serve me. I couldn’t believe it.
I was in the store the other day with my two kids and someone made a comment about children having children, and I was highly flattered. I had my first at 23.
They’re just jealous.
*sigh*
I use the self-checkouts at the grocery store. If I buy beer, it prompts me to show my i.d. to the cashier who monitors them. I simply have to turn around and let them look at me.
I had the opposite problem. I didn’t look 18 ’till I was 22. When I was 14 my friends and I told the ticket seller at Six Flags that I was 10 so I could get in for half price. They believed us.
Also? I’m 33 in this pic.
You look great Avis! I am 26 in mine, its from last year.
Thanks! The pic is from last August!
I can see why those people made the “children having children” comment, you do look younger than that.
OK, this pic is from like 10 minutes ago!
Specially done for “REVEAL YOURSELF on FAILBlog DAY!”
Put it away fellas! Skwerlly means your pic, not your…um…yeah…
Yay! Another in my age group! Sometimes I feel like the grandmother in here with all the 20-somethings.
.
Just call me Yaya. LOL!
SB! I didn’t recognize you without your hat!
“SkwerllyBob, unplugged!”
Cool!
Me, too, Velvet! My oldest daughter is (gulp) 33.
It’s the freckles, I think. I used to look exactly like Punky Brewster when I was little.
33?! I would have guessed mid-to-early 20’s!
*jealous*
Hee! Thanks!
Last year, when I was 36, a new patient told me “But what do you know, you can’t be much older than me”. She was 24. When I was younger, I hated that, now I think it’s terrific!
I had the same “problem” as Brewski in high school. I was the one who at age 16 could walk into almost any liquor store in town and buy beer or booze (drinking age was and still is 21). Sometimes they would card me and I’d whip it out (my DL, no porno
). I was the last year before they started putting “under 21 until …” on the DL, so most clerks wouldn’t (or couldn’t) do the math and would sell to me anyway!
. I’d hate to admit how many times I saw Ghost Busters at the drive-in without having any idea what the movie was actually about!
.
Of course this was exciting and fun at first, but after a year or two I got sick of all my friends wanting me to buy them beer every weekend. I also started getting tired of not remembering what I did last weekend
Yeah, I was at a wedding a few years ago, and people thought my oldest brother was younger than me. He is actually 7 years older than me. People always way-overestimate my age. My hair was thinning in high school. Seriously.
What I don’t get is even with the ever increasing amount of grey in my hair, people STILL think I’m considerably younger than I am! Yes, it was dyed in the pic, but still. I plan on cutting my hair even shorter and going blonde at summers end. That way, the greys won’t show as much.
I honestly, truly believe that you are as young as you feel. I will never lose the child in me – I even occasionally skip down the hall at work, if the mood strikes me. I romp with the dogs, and love a good game of hula hoops with the grandkids. Never lose your inner child, and you will never grow old!
I don’t worry about it, except I don’t like being judged based on appearance. When I started at a my latest employer, I went to a party at a coworkers house. A young coworker reacted with extreme shock that I was there. Now they invite me all the time. I was in the mosh pit at a club a couple weeks ago and had a blast. But some people assume since I look 40-ish that I like to sit at home, sip warm milk, and watch the weather channel! Urgh.
*pokes Brewski with cane*
TAG! You’re it!
*flees*
YUP I DID….
Sooo, that explains why my post earlier with the “i” word, I-mage-nation, never posted!
It recently showed up. It just takes a while.
BE NICE TO THE MODERATOR!
I got angry at a moderator here once, ripped his head open and feasted on his brains. My post never did show up. I think it was his revenge against me killing him. Lesson learned (maybe?).
You can’t say |mage on Failblog.
Why!? That’s Completely and Utterly FOOLISH!
Thus, FAILBlog itself is an ABSOLUTE FAILURE!

That is awesome. Thanks.
Hm. Firefox? No such option in IE that I see. In IE, you can hold down CTRL key, and roll the mouse scroll wheel. But that just scales, so it comes out all fuzzy.
If you right click do you have the option to open in a new window or tab? If so try that. I had to do that in chrome.
Right click, go to Properties.
Copy and Paste the address, change the 32 to 320 as SB indicated.
I have a mac. Any ideas how to view an avatar in a larger size for a mac?
Sorry, I’ve got nothing for the mac.
Hold the command (sometimes the apple, ctrl equivalent in windows) button an click on the picture. It should bring up a “right click” menu
If that doesn’t work these try this:
Ctrl (Command)-click: Opens a link in a new tab.
Ctrl (Command)-Shirt-click: Opens a link in a new tab and selects it.
Ctrl (Command)-Alt-click: Opens a link in a new window behind the current one.
Ctrl (Comamnd)-Alt-Shirt-click: Opens a link in a new window and selects it.
I’m on a Mac as well Avis and just followed Skwerlly’s directions – worked for me. If you’re stuck with a one-button mouse, try holding the button when you click on the avi.
*notices the word “control” vanished from post*
*looks around for it, fails to find it*
*curses the living*
*tries again …*
.
Try holding the control button when you click on the avi.
Oh, Brewski! It also enlarges the typeface! I learned something new today! Thanks!
Well, now that I’m at home, Brewski, what do I do? I don’t have a mouse – I have a laptop with a touchpad.
Whoa! so cool! thanks SB!
*feels even more exposed.*
I like the little pic of me better, harder to see how red my eyes are from sleep deprivation.
Don’t feel bad. I tried to leave messages on Lolcats yesterday (none of them bad and one even picture related and in a lolspeak attempt) and none of them passed moderation.
Was that your first post over there? First-time posts take extra long to make it through, but should show up quicker after that.
Yea. I had 3 or 4 yesterday. But with everything going on, I’m not too surprised.
Ah well… I may try again in a day or two.
If I were not a can – I may look something like this…
I give up. I cleared the cache and nothing…
I see it! Are you related to Bat Man?
Not that I know of. What do you see exactly
I see Jennyisbusy hanging upside down.
Yes he’s my uncle.
39th!
This is known as the Ken burns effect.
Ooh, are we having PBS (peanut-butter sammiches) for lunch today?
Way to jazz up the comment section AA!
Thanks Marius.
We’re having PBS so we don’t dirty any pans. Toast?
This is your non-captain today reminding you to NEVER feed the trolls.
AMEN.
*holds up petition as a reminder*

See you in a little bit.
Many thanks! *warms hands in FIRE*
*has been very good, not attacking even one today*
*notices Gigeoxy’s hand warming FIRE*
*buries self immediately in a panic*
Didn’t mean to send you into hiding, ZA (it must be exhausting scrambling in and out of burial!); it’s a contained fire in a barrel. It’s supposed to be summer where I am, but it is cold.
You know, I kinda felt bad laughing so hard about someone getting burned.
I am back……. from the dead and from the fire.
Dana?
she is being channeled through 5 eagles body
5 eagles is a medium, how very interesting for you 5 eaglesssss…..*sounds of snoring*
Lmao Jimbo is sick.
You all look so different… can’t cope…
*remains the same*
*also remains the same*
*wishes she wasn’t at work*
But your pic IS of you! Part of you anyway.
*resolute*
I know what Dragon looks like. But not Admiral.
Aww. So no pics from Admiral. Dragon I already have seen, but I have no face to put to you Admiral.
He won’t post a picture, but I can tell you that he’s extremely attractive and his eyes crinkle delightfully when he smiles.
Oooooh! I’m picturing Sean Connery right now. Am I close?
*grin!* You’re a gracious and attentive companion.
*smooch!*
Hey all
How’s life today?
*wouldn’t know*
*snork*
Lol nice
This made me lol I was feeling bad and kind of ashamed after laughing at a headline about somebody getting murdered.
Hi I’m the FNG here by the way. *waves*
Howdy howdy.
FNG?
Fail New Guy?
Yes!
Welcome to FailBlog! May your days be filled with unexpected falls and verbal goofs!
*Was going to say something else*
*glad Mal spoke up first*
Hi, new guy!
*waves*
You are soooo bad. LOL
New blood. Somebody indoctrinate the noob!
Shall we take turns or just dawg pile at once?
I say at once! We are all a touchy feely bunch here.
Indoctrinate? Or inoculate?
Inoculate
*pretends I’m not new*
Wouldn’t hurt to do both.
EEK!
Good point.
*goes off to find nurses uniform*
I’ll inoculate, you indoctrinate. Deal?
*has a fantasy about Avis in a nurse’s uniform*
Damnit Avis, what are you trying to do to me? I’m trying to contribute to FB, but you keep distracting me with hot nurse fantasies!!
Heehee
Deal!!!
-
*goes off to find French Maid uniform*
Oh that is simply not fair…..
*takes french maid uniform*
Here Jimbo, YOU can wear it then. Do you want my pumps too?
Oh, no thank you. I already have one of my own. I don’t have a pair of pumps like that though….
You can use them.
Aw, man….does this mean I can’t wear my Xena, Warrior Princess uniform??
*holds up scanty scraps of leather*
I’ll be in my bunk.
*grabs scanty scraps of leather*
I’ll be right there!
Oh, we’re gonna be lawless all right!
*snerk*
I read that as “… all night,” rather than “… all right.”
Tee hee…! You’re not wrong.
So did I, nightshayde!
You’re all hot. *needs to change his avatar to a new picture to look as hot as everyone*
Brewski, are you Brett Favre?
Don’t sell yourself short Malicite. I think you look very attractive in your avatar
Thanks Mr. cuddles! *wink* You fall under that category as well.
Malicite sports those shades very well!
.
A big ol group of looks and brains here. Yessss!
Did you all have a haircut and put on your best suits/attire for the occasion or what?
Ha! Haven’t heard Brett Favre. I have heard Christopher Reeve in earlier years. Similar smile I think.
For some reason I keep seeing it as someone if a fighter jet. Not sure why.
Blue background?
Mustang, this is voodoo 3! Remaining MiGs are bugging out!!
*agrees*
You too mr. cuddles!
Hot stuff! All y’all!
Yes, Mal. very.
We set the world on fire folks… we must be mindful of this powah.
*digs deeper after hearing “fire” again*
*feels good 12 feet under ground*
*stands next to ZA and grins, letting just a teeny puff of smoke escape from between teeth*
Glad it was between your teeth and not…
Stay clear from the ears! She just might hiccup unexpectedly.
Are you kidding, after what she has done to you and Malicite, I’ve been very cautious around DW. I don’t think I would look good bald. Only you can wear it so well Ms B.
Oh, c’mon. That was a freak accidenty!
One that I will be paying for for months!
I begun a collection for a few styles of wigs for you. *gives Ms B $2.32 in a jar* I hope it helps.
…what? My eyeballs?? :p
um…yeah, that’s it…your eyeballs.
there’s no fudgin sound.
*shows up 1 hour late to fail* I fail at failing!!! *sobs*
No worries. Welcome back to the fun.
Dance party!
*cranks up The Bird and the Bee*
I prefer ‘b-b-b bird bird bird, the bird is the word’ song
The Bird and the Bee is a band. clicky. (this is the song I had in my mind.)
wwwoooooot! *sings 99 red baloons* *dances like a BondFan*
Dancing? Uh oh!!! Here comes Ms B in all her nekkid’ness glory.
Leila, I don’t know who you keep seeing naked. It happened once, since then I have made a strict effort to remain clothed…at least here
*snickers*
Somebody give Ms B a drink!
*pours tequila into Ms B’s mouth*
Aaack! What are you trying to do to me!
*runs away*
*stumbles*
Don’t worry Brewski and his ‘boys’ are enjoying the open fresh air right now. *averts eyes from Brewski’s saluting member*
What?!?!
Nooo!!
*quickly puts pants back on*
*runs away and hides*
*admires Brewski’s tushi as he runs*
HONESTLY – this takes on a whole new level of creepiness with the pictures being real and all.
*looks for the eye bleach*
It takes FB to a whole new level. Did anyone already take screenshots? (In any case, I saved all the pics!)
Woohoo!
Yes, I vote for no more nakedness. Well, for today.
thanks! I was trying to read all the comments above. wow, way too much to catch up on. I can’t see anyy of the “pictures” everything is still avatars for me. And w/out sound, all I could gather was that someone died.
Clear your cache and refresh the page
Should make everyone visible. Oh, I have no idea what the fail is… *thwaps his work comp*
stupid computer!!!! *pounds F5 F5 F5 F5 on keyboard*
ACK!!!
I’m two days late, so don’t feel at all bad.
Good thing you’re not a woman.
Psssst-don’t forget to hold down control while you are pounding F5.
abstract… what browser? In IE, it’s Tools -> Internet Options , Delete Browsing History, Delete Temporary Internet Files.
thankd, I did that now, let’s see how it worked.
oh, god well, that is enlightning. Hello real fail peeps! *squeezes all*
I thank you for understanding how computer inept I am, how do i put my pic on here? Just go back to gravatar?
yeppers. Then clear cache and reload.
“oh god well that is enlightening”??
More than you wanted to see??
*ponders*
If you fail at failing, doesn’t that mean you succeed?
*wanders away, scratching head*
*isn’t sure whose head she’s scratching*
*puuurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr*
*tempted to pet purring cat(?)*
*pets purring cat*
I am assuming you do not know what happens when DW has ‘accidents’. Well, good luck. Nice knowing you abstract.
if I am kind and gentle maybe she won’t *foom* me
When she fooms it won’t be an accident, you are basically done.
There have been accidental FOOMings, but they ARE rare. And on occasion, we get some collateral damage. We really should have a medic around here. Armed with more than just ShamWows.
I worked for a veterinarian for a while once.
Plus, I can write songs about injuries and such
HIRED!!!!
Who has two thumbs and is an EMT in the state of Ohio?
*points thumbs at self*
This guy!
Do you take a schitt on the porch of every house call you make?
Well, that’s good to know Avis. I haven’t been here that long and I don’t have all that interesting history. *glances at purrring DW cat*
My gawd…I purr and act cuddly and you assume I’m going to destroy you all.
Hmph!
Well, you did FOOOOM all my hair off accidentally the other day!
ONCE!! And that was a *FOOOOM!!!* malfunction.
No one ever destroyed anyone just by purring.
I trusted you, see. I pet you like a nice little cat.
Unfortunately there are millions of ways to fail, and precious few to succeed.
But how many ways to fail WELL? HMMMM???
*tries to explain how failing at failing is not succeeding to NS*
*fails miserably*
*doesn’t understand what that means*
See?!?!
Failing at failing means ur doin it rite!
{{{nightshayde}}}
Hey Kiddos!
For your Viewing Pleasure here is the REAL Skwerlly Bob!
*cheers*
this is fun! I miss your hat though, SB
I tried one of just the hat… didn’t look interesting enough.
Then I tried one with the hat on… didn’t look cool enough.
So ya gets what ya gets and YOU LIKE IT!… OKAY???
*sniff sniff* It was just a suggestion, and I’m NOT crying.
I didn’t scare the baby did I?
Cookie?
*bows*
*wishes I had cool sunglasses*
Hey Skwerrly!
*Gets empty box, stick and string ready*
*facepalm.*
*switches one r for one l*
stoopid stoopid stoopid!
How come I can see your avatar Skwerlly and not anyone else’s? Oh well, maybe in time…and nice pic!!!
OH! I’m using a different Email for the different Picture.
That way, when I want to swap back, I don’t have to go to Gravatar.
I just change email adx. and POOF!
AND POOF!
Whoooooooaaaaa!!!!!
He ‘POOF’ed!!!
…and what POOF it was.
…it really was a POOF to behold.
*whistful sigh*
Hey. Kind of an off thing here, but I know some mentioned this yesterday and I decided to try it. If you go to my website, I set up a Where are we map type thing.
Sorry. Here is the clicky.
You’re getting married aiki? When?
Early August.
Congratulations!!!
Thanks. I am excited and nervous.
I wish I could attend the wedding!
.
Off topic (like anything here isn’t), I haven’t received whatever I’m supposed to receive via email to log in. Do you accept Excite email accounts?
aiki, CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Thanks everyone. Again thanks for checking out the site. I am still fairly new to the web development scene so it is exciting to see people using it.
Congrats and thanks for the map!
Aik what did you use to get the thumbnail format for your picture page of Japan?
It is a shadow box format. To get the thumbnails I actually made them myself in Photoshop. If you are interested in that I recommend looking up shadowbox (if your are building you page with a program like Dreamweaver) or if you are using a content management system (CMS) then look for Joomla and a module called MorfeoShow.
Yeah, I use dreamweaver. I’ll have to try that out. I use to have a program called photogenerator that basically took all the im_ages in a folder, made the thumbnails and made the web page just with the push of a button. I lost the program when my hard drive crashed and have not been able to track it down. I was just wondering if you had a simpler solution.
If you are willing to try out some new things, I could let you take a look at Joomla. I have no problems creating a site for you to play in and see if you like it. I am still somewhat new to it but am having fun with it.
er, aiki, can I delete my location? I kinda messed up.
Yeah… Got it taken care of.
Thanks very much. I thought I had revealed a bit too much of where I live.
I’ll make a less specific address marker now.
*looks for said site*
*creates login for said site*
Where is the where we are thingie?
Sorry. Look for the Google Map link on the left.
Okie…I think I got it..
Don’t see it.
WIK, you are obsessed with The Bird and The Bee?
Me neither
*thinks*
I wish I could help out here…
Sorry guys. Failblog ate my replies. If you register you can see it then. It will be a link on the left called Where We Are.
*squeezes again all around*
.
Gotta get some work done. I’ll see you all tomorrow as a disco ball again. It was so much fun seeing everyone! Literally!
.
We should plan a cookout. At the beach. Trolls, that means we’re actually going to the mountains.
.
Until tomorrow, my friends! MWAH!
Bye velvet! *squeezes*
er, aiki, How do I mark my location? Is there a way to do that?
I captured a copy of everyone’s picture…
I have your souls!
HA HA! Now I can … um … do … um … something with them! Yeah! That’s it!
Ha, great minds…
You already have a marker on there. Actually I have a friend that lives near there.
Aiki, could you pull my marked location? I don’t think my computer was able to handle posting that :/
No prob.
Thanks
Done.
Thanks guys for trying it out. I am going to leave it up and continue to work out some of the bugs. If there are any issues, use the contact me on the site and I will get it right away.
Thanks for setting it up,
Daveaiki!You have to admit, if you need an excuse to take the night off, that’s a pretty good one…..
Unless you meet your boss in the supermarket later
Ah, my fail blog is dead. The reply button is no longer working. I have attached a clicky to my picture because my work place has blocked access to gravitar.
Noice!
Is changing it through wordpress an option? That’s where I normally change mine, but things could have changed since I last … um … changed.
Are we having nesting issues again?
No I think it me, and my work network. Sometimes I have trouble with the reply buttons. It’s odd because it only happens on the fail blog and only reply button, but I can still post. Then like magic the problem goes a way.
Meeeeow!!!! Jules *humps leg*

All the men are sooooooooooo cute!!! I’ve only seen DW’s pic and didn’t see any of the other ladies’.

Way to stick it to the trolls!!!
*shovels food inside his mouth nonstop*
I am never eating a Lean Cuisine again.
*is so freaking hungry right now*
I get days like that Malicite. I drink tons of water – like at least 2 quarts a day. It helps a lot.
I wish I could bring up the muster to eat anything. I hate sore throats!
Aww feel better MsB…
Leila…I had one for dinner last night…it was like three bites… I waited until today to eat again…it’s been nonstop… *eats while typing*
Are you starving yourself?
Maybe…
Medium salad for lunch…and under 400 calories for dinner…
That’s not to bad…
OMG!!!!
Just what are you trying to do?
Lose 20 lbs…
I’m attempting walk off my twenty pounds. I suppose I’ll have to succumb to the reduced calorie diet too, but I’m resisting for now.
I’ve been running around 15 miles a week…just not doing anything…well I did just quit smoking cigarettes today, so I’m hoping to be able to increase my exercise…
*gnaws on a plastic bottle*
I need a cigarette…
I need…a…cigarette…and dinner…
I need…to stop bugging people on Failblog…and a cigarette…
Oh, don’t stop bugging us! We like you here!
There, there….
*pat pat pat*
I’m proud of you! Just remember, absolutely everything is a choice, so if you choose to lose 20 pounds and quit smoking, I know you can do it.
Thanks ladies… *squeeze*
I need to lose WAY more than 20 pounds. I’ve lost 5, though. It’s a start.:mrgreen:
I have baby weight to lose still. Now that I’m finally sleeping at night, I can find the energy to work out more.
I quit my 20-year-old smoking habit last December. Hardest thing I have ever done, I still want one on occasion. Remarkably, dying didn’t help matters much.
Oh, Mal! I’m so happy you quit! I’m a 6-year-smoke-free person! My doctor told me at my last checkup that I have the lungs of a non-smoker! And I smoked 2 packs a day for, what? almost 20 years. You can do it!
If you need any help, watch the X-Files episode “Brand X”.
I have been on a hotwing and coffee diet for a week now. I have lost a lot of weight although I am starting to think it has mostly been colon.
*SNORK!*
Jenny, I very nearly just shot wine out of my nose!
My liver hurts now…
Your liver hurts when it is working – have a drink of everclear to take care of that liver problem.
*thinks she will follow her own advice*
Apparently he’s trying to join Zombie with the undead.
It’s just a simple diet
*sniff*
What were you doing with Mr cuddles that you you sick?
Based on his pic earlier, I wish! Sadly he doesn’t swing my way.
Ambiguity Fail.
Does anyone else have this creepy side-ad of a green alien sticking his yellow tongue out? It’s almost as disturbing as hershey candle guy.
Yes! Though I wasn’t sure if it was his tongue
It’s horrible!
*shudders*
I don’t think it’s his tongue. I think his last meal didn’t agree with him.
*runs off to the restroom*
Yeah, it kind of reminded me of a certain video once introduced to this site.
*doesn’t want to know*
Well now we have to tell you.
Who’d like to do the honors?
lol
Just google “pickle surprise”. And don’t blame us.
I could always link to the frightening one I found!
For the love of any and all deities, kindly refrain from doing so.
Ok, sheesh. I would have actually given warning had I really posted it!
I am not brave enough to google ‘pickle surprise’
I scarred a few people here with a link to “Fat Kid Air Guitar”. It’s on YouTube. If you like the song “I Touch Myself” don’t go looking it up. Just trust me on this one.
Video Embed fail.
I am back and on fire.
And you have an avatar that is threatening me.
How do you know? Maybe that’s a happiness ray.
Oops.
test 1 2 3
testing again
My speakers are broken. What does he say?
hello Nicole LOL. I was testing my new avatar.
I feel so stupid. It took ages for me to understand what was the fail.
I feel even more stupid… I played the video about 20 times and still can’t find the fail.
He said the guy that normally does the news was murdered and set on fire, but in reality he was talking about the black man in the picture behind him.
Actually, in this case, Dana King is a woman.
LMFAO <
i did the same!
i was looking at the head lines and everything!,
but apparently its what he says. -.-
I feel the most stupid… I read your comments 20 times looking for a hidden joke.
Damn – and I suffered a nesting fail.
i don’t get the fail, i fail
oh i get it now
this fail was kinda funny…
is this suppost to be funny??http://www.z-trend.com/
Rebel without a pause
Where’s MRN?
Why, who wants to know?
Does my eyeball bother you?
dana is not in tonight. he took a personal day after being murdered and set on fire. i’m ken bastida, filling in…
Learn your grammar, ken. that dot thingy there means stop!
hey, all he can do is read a teleprompter! don’t blame him, blame his trainer
Are you EVER going to move to a faster server? I love this blog but the annoyance of having to wait 2+ min. for a post doesn’t seem worth it. And it happens every single time, from every computer/location I use.
eh, fine for me and your post popped up zippity!
I was laughing my ass off because that’s a local reporter here, then I saw the map and realized the map was showing the location as a block from where I work!
Sounds like its from The Onion
Our local radio station talked about this:

Search: TV News Blooper 6-19
hehehe
Good times.
Is it just me, or does every 5th or so poster manage to overuse sentences in 2nd person? If i wanted twitter i probably would of directed myself there.
and what is with some of you people, i think you need to find an IM service, having conversation in a failblog comments section
No harm done, once the comments reach this many the fail seems to have been long since discussed so why not a bit of friendly banter
honestly i don’t get it. can somebody explain it to me? (i’m not from an english-speaking country)
He says he is presenting the news in place of the regular guy, but instead of stopping there then talking about someone who was murdered, he made it sound like the regular news guy was the one who was murdered.
lol@SF bay area news stations! Second or third time one has been on here.
I had to watch this 3 times to understand why it was a fail. o_O
recognizing the punctuation fail, unless it wasn’t put there, then teleprompter fail
Cheap video splice. Whoever posted this fails.
reading punctuation fail, unless they weren’t there, then, teleprompter fail
whoops, I didn’t realize my stupid computer posted the comment before locking up, repetition fail
Poor Dana.
Can someone please explain to me why this is funny? I JUST DON’T GET IT.
What’s so funny?
i dont get it
I don get it, i kinda see what it can be but it’s not funny.
It’s kind of wierd, why would he be off one night, if he was MURDERED then set on fire. That guy should work on pauses.
don’t get it!!!!!
wtf?
what was wrong with the head line..
either im stupid or its not really clear!
News guy: ” he was murdered and set on fire”
Xaman: “oh shit….wait…. he died and you took his place……strange…..”
i couldnt even understand the idiot
OMG I USED TO LIVE ON THAT STREET.
NOT KIDDING.
O_O
hahaha i saw this on the news when it came out. this is my local news station
