My Nigaz!!!
some nasty clicky about nigaz w/ gas.
this isnt that funny. i didnt even smile a little. :/
agreed… i mean a little immature but not funny… cmon failblog
In fact I _did_ find it funny and I loled very loudly..
Not funny at all, to be honest.
Try being dishonest then.
You can always trust a dishonest man to be dishonest, honestly. It’s the honest one’s you’ve got to watch out for…
no. trust me. an honest man is an honest man and… as an honest man, I don’t really find this all that funny. However…
Honesty is always the best policy, unless you are an exceptionally good liar.
one’s vs ones. Same like “the car’s doors” and “the cars’ color is the same”
do try to learn some grammar.
The irony being that you failed to use capital letters at the beginning of two of your sentences, you write “same like” instead of “same as” and mispell “colour”.
You misspelled misspell. Intentional irony?
“Most words ending in unstressed -our in the United Kingdom (e.g., colour, flavour, honour, armour, rumour) end in -or in the United States (e.g., color, flavor, honor, armor, rumor).”
did you just quote capn jack sparrow?
Yes, but failblog’s name is FAILblog, not FUNNYblog.

you are way too uptight if you didn’t think this was funny.. or way too “politically correct”
Or maybe you have be more mature than a 12 year old to think it’s funny.
Or maybe humour is too broad for us to make universal statements about it, and we should realize that different people have varying tastes in humour.
My sense of humor taste’s like chicken!
I think the failed grammar fairy snuck an apostrophe into my sentence.
Yeah, she can be a real bitch sometimes.
Agreeded.
*inssert Facepalm herre*
I..
I have no idea what to say.
I fail.
no one knows what to say cuz it aint all that funny… except to the eddie burkes of this world.
If you are more mature than a 12 year old, then what are you doing at FailBlog ??? FailBlog is all about finding cyclists falling into pits and bad sings and people tripping and other immature humorous things.
Can you find a sophisticated fail on this blog?
That sounds like a challenge to me. To the FailBlog archives!
maybe im just too young.
*clickyclickyclicky!!*
Is your clicky safe?
Nevermind, the firewall at work is blocking it anyway.
That’s unfortunate.
Why, is it a good clicky?
Oh, absolutely. You should check it out the next chance you get.
How old are you, sweetie?
im just gonna say im in the current generation.
im also in between the ages of 10-30.
Sorry, that came out wrong. I meant, only a 12 year old would find it funny. (And maybe not even many of them.)
i think the russians are doing this just to mock the nigerians.
You ARE right
25 and cackling at it. Nothing unfunny about it.
seconded
oh this is funny, just not to you
to me it’s more then “my Nigaz” it’s questions like, HOW does this get past marketing? are they unaware of the reference? do they care?
there is a joke there past one that requires a lack of maturity, if you could take a second to get off your prim, proper, high and mighty horse you may be able to find it
Russians/Nigerians,
neither speak English as a first language, maybe this is an example of Engrish rather than (or in addition to ) being a fail.
Is Engrish a subset of fails?
Every Nigerian I’ve met has had English as a first language…
Edit: Every Nigerian I’ve met speaks English as their first language…
That’s the exact opposite of what you said earlier !?
*doesn’t know what to believe anymore on FB*
There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man’s fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call… Fail Blog.
*stands in awe*
you have won an internet
Ok, Russian jokes people. In Russian, нигаз doesn’t even sound remotely offensive. It’s just a generic name, that, in English, sounds racist. Just for fact, calling people of African lineage “negr” is normal, while calling them “black” is offensive.
Glad someone pointed this out. Ten culture points! (or minus ten fail points).
Or too black?
You are right Tofu Mogu we need a forum to tell fail blog that some things are not appropriate on here. Mine was the minor molester?
Funny is good, disharmony is bad especially on here where there is enough of it here somedays.
Nigaz…funny that’s what I thought Obama was going to call GM now???
Yes, you’re first. And…???
SAME IT R ROFL WHATDUJUMEAN
Nigaz laying pipe…. classic.
its their kind of sh*t
More of a win than a Fail.
Well, it’s transcription fail. Venture name is ok in the original language.
WOW! I bet they don’t get a government bailout from Obama!
what are you talking about, Obama is all about Bailin’ his Nigaz out… uh…. word?
Fourth! not counting the replier!
DAMN CLABBERHEAD
Well EXCUSE ME!!!!!!
Well excuuuuuuse me, princess!
5 th
lolz.
u mean trolz?
Surprise Bonus Fail!!!! Suh-weet!!!
Uh, where’s my peeps? Hellooooooooo?
It has to show up after we all go home?
WHHHEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
I know! I happened upon it by accident!
So, what’s up with you?
Sinus headache. Darn summer cold.
*grumble grumble*
How are you this evening?
Funny – I’ve got a headache, too. Not sinus-related, though. I’ve had it most of the day and can’t seem to get rid of it. It’s not a bad one – - just annoying. Other than that, just waiting for the storm system to hit us. Looks like in about an hour.
**scampers over to Judy and Ms. B and purrs snuggling with them*
*joins snuggling* *takes out extra asterik from Taya’s comment* there. thats better.
*snuggles with her penguin*
Wanna share pain killers? I’ve got Excedrin, what do you have?
*snuggles Taya*
*tail flicks and goes between her legs, ears droop and the kitten mews sadly*
*snuggles Toya and Ms B*
I can only take Tylenol – recovering from ulcer.
….it’s not helping.
Man, if we aren’t hear to hold down the fort all the retards come out…what gives retards?
Weird. Like they know we’re not around. Trolls are mind readers!!!!!!
Their trolls senses tingled hardcore… *waits for his brother to materialize so he can complete his exercises fail by drinking…*
Ye gods. I get all excited about an extra fail, and find THIS!!!
I was sooooooo glad to see you guys when I scrolled down!
*squeezes failpeeps tightly*
Yeah, this fail doesn’t give us much to work with.
*big squeeze*
I seriously dislike the fails that bring the bigots out of the woodwork.
*smoooch!*
Getting gas at the prom would be very embarrassing. It’s probably just nervousness.
At least it was natural gas.
Better to take someone who is a little nervous than someone with an inflated ego.
Funny, I’ve noticed that “Hardcore” hasn’t been around! Not that I’m complaining.
Sometimes it’s a good thing to miss the bloat!
Some people get queasy when on the bloat.
The swells will do that to you.
A good date will go with the flow and make the situation as comfortable as possible.
don’t let the frat boys light any matches
and i agree on the troll subject
Mal! i missed you this mornin.
good to see ya
Hehehe! I was sadly busy….. work doesn’t have a right to force me to do things…they only have the right to pay me… and provide free coffee… *sniff*
The nerve!!!!
I know right!!! *squeeze*
i hear you
I don’t think I’ll be around long – I may just let them have it. How ya doin’, Mal?
I over heated on my run today…and have spent the last two hours unsuccessfully trying to cool down…but it’s hot…so blech. Hows about you?
See above re: headache. Has to be stress-related, but I’m home now, and can’t seem to get it to go away. Maybe with the sweet release of sleep….
Sounds like a migraine :/ I hope you feel better!
Judy, I have a sinus thing going today, too…which is weird. I NEVER get headaches, but this one’s a doozy.
I suggest something warm and moist to help loosen the passages.
*smooch!*
Hmmm…I’ll go heat up the honey poultice!
hey, don’t be dissin’ the ‘tards.
*kneads gently with her paws and mews sadly*
Try that woman product for mentrual clamps ??? forget name of it.
Midol?
*gently rubs Judy’s temples*
Aw, thanks, sweetie! Actually, that’s helping.
*wants to approach Judy but is not sure if her pantheon*
Would that speed or slow your approach?
This is the second pun-run that you haven’t taken a shrine to.
He should altar his approach.
Maybe he’s trying to mosque his approach? If so, he’s doing a good job.
Holy cow you guys. There’s a pall bearing on this whole city. I’m not sure why, but many, many people identified with Jacko. I’m inside a very vast, highly charged emotional field, filled with sorrow. I think it is much more concentrated here than out there in “fly-over land”.
I give up. Convent-ional methods just aren’t working.
I pray you recognized my two puns.
We were just trying to basilica and not have the conversation changed.
Indeed, I was just making an a priory statement there.
michael jackson
what about him
He died today.
dead…
And guess what? People are talking crap about him over on LOLceleb. Poor guy!
What were you expecting? The site is called LOLceleb, not MOURNceleb.
He’s dead.
Wow…. 3 different posts at the same minute.
About the same topic…still, it saddens me.
Very sad. Been a crazy day. Or last two weeks for that matter.
He’s been strucked by a smooth criminal oO
The Michael we all knew and loved left us a long time before the Blanket, before the surgeries and the rampant allegations. He was the King of Pop for a reason…too bad he never got to taste that level of awesomeness again. :/
Wise words there, Mal. Unfortunate he died a different man than we remember and loved.
*sniff* Sadly so… *goes to get a shower*
Hmmm, shower…Mal wet and nakie…
Can I join?
Me, too? Maybe some steam will help my headache….
I could always need an extra..extra set of hands to scrub my back
I wanna take a shower…
testing some stuff – still sad I missed the shower though
“True dat”
I liked him better when he was a black boy. Didn’t like him when he turned into a white woman.
You’re a wise fish, Fluffy.
I agree.
Reminds me a little of Elvis that way. Not that I was really alive to see either of them at their best.
D:
We’ll miss that white guy. D”:
did michael died?
NO TIME TO JOKE, THIS IS SERIOUS SH!T!!!!!
Despite what happened in his life he was a brilliant singer, and brilliant dancer– Thriller, The Moonwalk, Billie Jean, Beat it…
Black or White where he did dances from all over the world.
Let’s not talk about that song.
Micheal was AWESOME! I cannot BELIEVE what they’re saying about him over on LOLceleb. He really did a great job with his music. THAT’S what’s going to be remembered.
Yes.
Looked pretty much dead already anyway.
Yeah! My Nigerian Gazprom joint venture!
Daaaaaamn nigaz
*is disgruntled by all the “gangsta cursing” * *remembers it is related to the fail* oh, carry on.
Gangsta cursing, also knowns as Black Speech.
Ash nigaz durbatulûk, ash nigaz gimbatul,
ash nigaz thrakatulûk, agh burzum-ishi krimpatul
why is that on the front page? it had like -1000 votes…
The newest ones are shown on the front page.
If there were two Gs then it would be different and actually funy
Exactly. This is pronounced completely differently, hence there is no “fail”. If this is a “fail”, then so is the name of the country itself, and neighbouring Niger.
“NIGAZ” and “JOINT” in the same article , sorry man, I’m “down” with the overall hilarity ! LMAO
Not sure if you all are on Facebook, but the Failblog Facebook exclusive is a serious epic win…
How do I find that?
Search for Failblog and it should come up.
Um…about a dozen fan sites come up. What am I looking for exactly?
Here’s FailBlog’s Official Facebook fan page (they upload a fail to the photo section each weekday most of the time):
http://www.facebook.com/pages/FailBlogorg/34729731472#/pages/FailBlogorg/34729731472
Facebook to me is a verb: what I do when people ask me why I waste time reading.
78th!!’
haha! i was just going on this blog to post this exact thing!!
The hell of it is that this article is about worries over the possibility of Nigaz taking over Europe.
i’m laughing more with the thought that an actual deal was made with nigerians and they didn’t got scammed
michael jackson is dead ‘-’
Yeah, we know. And you would know not to post it if you had bothered to read the previous comments.
This is going a bit backwards for darkies isn’t it? I hope someone tells them…would be bad for them.
Whatcha referring to? Michael Jackson or Nigaz?
Anybody still here? It seems like i’m the only one posting.
Not everything is what it seems.
So it would seem.
Where there was one there are now 2.
And together we shall take over Failblog.
Mwhahaha!!!
All in good time…
You have been planning it already?
My plans begin with Iceland. The land of Skyr and Bjork.
And from there we shall spread to Europe. Specifically Romania. Home of the Fail itself!
You catch on quick!
But i think we will need more than just 2.
We need to recruit some others to our cause.
Zombies!!! We need zombies.
They cannot be killed because they are already dead. Perfect.
I’m thinking genetically engineered tigersharks. Sharks with tiger legs and lungs – the ultimate amphibious fighting machine. If I know my biology (and I think I do) it should be fairly simple to splice the genes in.
Wowwww!!! Tigersharks!
They will make an excellent army.
Together with the zombies i have infected with the t-virus, we will be unstoppable.
Only funny for anglocentrics.
What does Nigaz mean? Will I regret asking this when no one has ever used the term in my presence before?
Do you know the n-word?
Where are you from?
It means Nigerian Gas
gaz is how they transliterate ‘gas’ from Russian
and Gazprom is the abbreviation of Gazovaya Promyshlennost, which means ‘gas industry’ or ‘gas production’
Yep. I’m from Russia, and want say that the word ‘Nigaz’ is normal for Russian, because it is not slang word in Russian. I see in this word only “Nigerian Gas”. If it was something like [ni:ger], it would be funny ([ni:ger] equivalent Nigaz)
perhaps if nigaz is not funny, then nigaz is not a failure. it may just be that nigaz is a success!
we all took geometry puddi and that is totally irrelevant
People are down on Vine St. dumping flowers on the wrong star in the “Walk of Fame”. They’re putting them on the radio talk show host’s star. Hard to blame them since dead Michael’s star is covered by some bleachers, but still.
I’ll bet the bleachers will be gone in another couple hours and the Chamber of Commerce will move the flowers and put up a sign. Hundreds of people are still gathered at the UCLA Medical Center.
Great Blog!!!
Yo! ’sup my bitches? Dez Nigaz got gas up in here.
run out of immodium? need some emetrol?
Yes please!
Hi Sauer Kraut! It’s been a day with a capital D here.
lol, this is an epic win IMO. thousands of black people will now be trolled every time this is mentioned on the news. I foresee endless lulz when we’ll get first photos of the plant with a big name sign on it.
I concur. And I am glad that I am able to witness this historical moment
I concur with your concur.
buba® is not amused.
I do not care about your taste of humor… I’m 22, and it is funny
maybe not in USA, but here in central Europe, I laf X))
A Russian/Nigerian gascompany called NiGaz (pronounced Nai-gaz). Yep. Must be hilarius to North Americans. Nothing special to the rest of the world, of course…
Generalizations like that, on the other hand, can be made by just about anybody, anywhere.
It’s pronounced just like nigaz. And yep, it’s funny for a bunch of Russians who knows about American slang, i’ve already met this joke on a russian boards.
i disagree
With… ?
Because…?
Another 419 scam. I can’t believe the Russians fell for this.
Nigaz with gas, they shouldn’t have had the bean burritos.
There’s country in Africa called Niger, you know. Well… Laugh already, cuz it’s must be soooo funny for you.
And BTW – f**k Gazprom.
why?
Do you ever wonder what the company-wide emails from Nigaz would look like?
I have this disturbing idea that they’d involve opening my bank account to some kind of former general’s daughter.
Hey you US-Americans, your country is not the world. It is only a small part of it. There are many, many other countries, many other languages in the world- do not put yourself in the middle of the universe and do not refer every name to your language. For Russians, this name is absolutely normal- nothing to it.
Not a fail at all. A fail is rather the accumulation of political power in Russian hands, but this is an entirely other story.
No fail without a rant. Well done!
*claps her paws in appreciation for the fail rant!*
The BEST comemnt i read here for long….
whatrs the analphabetic quote in USA? 35% ?
Wanna know something? For the most US Amercans, the US border is the end of the world
…and some stupid bigotry. Hmmm, is that all?
this is not a rant, this is totally true. the firm is called pronounced ‘nigh-jaz’ just like the sounds you find in the name Nigeria.
bunch of idiots posted this one. their train of thought=>fail.
English is one of the official languages in Nigeria.
yes, but if you find something in this name that sounds like something else, it is only US-American slang, nothing more. And the name of the country Nigeria comes, yes, from Niger, yes, this is black in Latin. Black is neither good nor bad, it is just a color.
This word will now become the 1,000,000,012 to be entered in the language books. Mark my words.
In Soviet Russia gas burns you!
In Soviet Russia gun shoots you!
In Soviet Russia blogs post to you!
Black gaz win.
Straight Outta Hood..
I wonder if the Russians made this deal by replying to an email from a guy in Nigeria who just wants them to send $2.5 billion so they can get the project started. Then he’ll send Russia a check for $25 billion!
I’ll bet you that’s what happened..
that just wasn’t any funny ._.
the only fail i see is this pic being on the main page ._.
probably that was the worst “fail” i’ve seen on failblog.
Recognizing of humorous name fail!
Deez win.
Where my Nigaz at!?!?
black gold
“FailBlog is all about finding cyclists falling into pits and bad sings and people tripping and other immature humorous things.”
Like naming a multi-billion dollar company “Nigaz”.
Nigeria + Gaz (in russian) = Nigaz
What funny? (‘oO’)
As an American living in Russia, I’ve got a special view on this one…. and it’s a definite FAIL!
But it’s an entirely understandable and even logical fail… funny thing with ginormous state-run companies like Gazprom is they don’t ever really think things through…
guys… Nigaz= Ni stands for Nigeria and gaz for petrol or gas
Oh thats funny HAHA!
I really found that humorous. Nice.
VERY FUNNY! The only peeps not finding it funny are the ever-so-ridiculously-touchy-sensitive-poor me-black people. And that’s why they canceled the name. Don’t want to ‘offend’ any of those idiots. sheesh!
Don’t they know racism is only ok when it’s against Whites?? (too true these days)
Nigaz bout to take over Africa!!
Oh, shades of “Tokyo Breakfast”… (search it on YouTube – a few years old, but so related to the naming of that company here)
Wouldn’t it be funny if this was some huge Nigerian email scam?
They’re going to insist that it’s pronounced with a hard I, but even then, everyone else will mispronounce it intentionally.
I remember seeing a gas station in Istanbul called Nigaz. Should have taken a photo
Talk about poor planning.
this was a fake article. there’s a bbc mirror site that does onion-style articles. failure fail
Nigaz is a work in Nigeria meaning royalty.
Failblog = Fails.
god dammit, I meant WORD not work.
So you made a fail in a statement in which you claimed that a site about fails does fail. Don’t you think it’s… a fail?
Has anyone ever noticed on this site that more caucasian people get offended over ethnicity jokes/pictures than the actual ethnicity the joke/picture is referring too? I’m starting to think tightie whities aren’t only underwear..
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/8118721.stm
here is the link XD
In a further development, they also launched an urban gas distribution daughter company, called “nigaz in da hood”
Тема старая конечно же, но прочитал с удовольствием
