Talk about being wrapped up in your work!!
nice! *high 6*
*snork*
*only has five*
Can I owe you the other one?
*borrows hand from finger fail*
*high-sixes abstract*
As long as you don’t borrow one of the hands from two fails ago, you’re ok.
: shock :
(I don’t like the new smilies as much)
I don’t, either! It’s difficult to see the expressions on them.
Some are ok, others just don’t cut the mustard.
I can’t tell if they’re smiley or not when I’m reading quickly, trying to ketchup on the posts.
I wish we could go back to the old ones – some of them I really relish!
Mayo-be they’ll realize that switching was a mistake.
I want the old ones back in the worcestershire way.
I don’t want to be sour(kraut) about their upgrades, but I just don’t like this one.
*kicks pun-run breaker in the buns – hard*
I feel butter now.
He/she been spamming that video on every fail for days now. It’s starting to piss me off.
*headdesk* Now I broke the run!
I guess I shouldn’t have dipped into the sauce during lunch!
I am hear to spread the news. Please hand over your pun-run certificate.
That’s quite the pickle you’re in, Leila. Didn’t you hear you’re supposed to be here?
Quick! Get her to the Mayo Clinic!
This pun-run tickles me from my head tomatoes.
Are there others?
Well, there’s a slightly used, minimally stained rubber fist that is from a loooooooong ago fail…
Say no more … I don’t want to hear it Avis.
Are you sure? It was an actual FailBlog pic. Of an ad, describing said fist. I’m sure I could find it if I tried…. the ad that is.
*snork*
Um…okay.
*puts lunch aside*
It’s Drinking Fail. From August 14th. It’s actually relatively safe, since it’s just type on a flier.
Oh…ew!!!!…and some of the phone number tabs are missing.
Speaking of hands. I went to the bar on Saturday to watch a sporting event and had to use the restroom sseveral times. For some reason, I took notice of how few (if any) men washed their hands after going. I think I now know why the knucle bump greeting was invented.
*transforms extra s into a k and inserts it into knuckle*
Did that sporting event happen to be UFC 100?
If so, you could have just come and watched it at my house. We had pizza, and a clean bathroom where everyone washed their hands!
All the guys I watched it with were sorely disappointed with the fights. I thought they were alright. The GSP fight was good. But the Lesnar fight was awful. We were all cringing by the end. That was one heck of a beating!
I thought it was kind of nice to see Bisping out cold. I liked him when he was on the Ultimate Fighter as a fighter, but this last season as a coach he was an unbearable @ss.
The second punch from Henderson was unnecessary after Bisping was out though. He admitted it after the fight. That was a d!ck move.
I won’t say it was wrong. Just d!ckish.
I agree Ms. B. He came off as such a d-bag on this season’s show. Like smokey once said “he got knocked the f*ck out.”
I guess it’s just a sign that I’m getting old. It never bothered me back in my bar/club/rave days.
I watched Arthur shag a sheep recently, and he washed his hands afterwards.
Brewski, that’s baaaaaad.
Starfish, I don’t think he gives a flock.
I herd that.
Wooly do it again, I wonder?
Ewe never know, he might!
It’d be shear bad luck on the part of the sheep.
Arthur’s on the lam(b)?? I had no idea.
When he feels horny, he feels horny!
:angel:
We know what’s keeping that halo on!
Yeppers. Good night of butt woopins.
I just wish I could have seen some of the undercard fights from earlier. That was a lot of blood on the octagon! I saw some pics online. Looked BRUTAL.
Yeah, we were commenting on how bloody it looked like the undercard was.
Ick. Just… ick.
Starfish, do not get me started on this subject again. Some nasty ass women do it here where I work too. UGH!!!
Excuse me! That is my finger you just ripped off!!!!
woo hi, Brewski! *squeeze*
I already squeezed you last fail, but now that you’re here…
*extra squeeze!*
Not at all! I only said that so that you wouldn’t miss the last one! I didn’t know if you saw it or not.
You can never have to many hugs or squeezes!
*tosses an extra ‘o’ into Brewski’s post*
*squeezes Brewski and Abstract*
*squeeze* Thanks Lurk! I missed that one!
YEAH!! *squeeze Lurk*
*Sneaks in for extra squeeze*
About that game you linked to the other day, I got a little obsessed with it. The good news is I am MUCH better at geography now.
I’ll have to work on finding a new addictive game for this week. Glad you liked it!
But it’s fun! Whodathunk?
Me too! But I can’t seem to get past level 8. It’s HARD when they take the boundaries away.
I top out at 8, too. It’s hard for me to even get things in the US (like Tuscon) once I can’t tell where Mexico starts and the US ends.
I finally made it to level 10 and it congratulated me, and that was the end of the game. I had a final score of 20757. I may suck at geography, but I do pretty well at memory games.
*checks bank account for squeeze balance*
*sees it is still full*
*gives extra squeeze!*
lolz, you bet. *marks down in book, “Avis owes one finger”.* Check *tucks book away for rainy day*
abstract, a serious question. I want to try my hand at painting something very simple using acrylic paint. Any advice?
And while you’re answering Leila’s question, perhaps you can tell me when in hell you’re going to post some high-res pictures of your works on the web? I’m still waiting!!
Well, first I would have to get a camera or go to a studio and have photos taken. I have to save up. I’m thinking about trying to get in some shows now that I have quit my weekend job.
Can you just use a cheap point-and-shoot? I just would like to see something larger than a thumbnail. Like at least VGA-res would help. Your web page had some super-small low-res pictures.
oh, I get what you’re saying, they look good for me on my computer, I can enlarge them by clicking on them, but I don’t know how to do that for you. I’ll work on that. I’ll let you know once I fugure it out.
are you asking me to reccomend a subject to paint? or a type of paint or substrate? I’d be glad to give some advise, but you’ll have to be specific about what you’d like to know. make sure you get plenty of slow-dri Liquitex. I work with oil paint, so I have more time to think and manipulate the area being painted. Liguitex is an acrylic medium that you blend with the paint to help it stay wet longer.
I like Asian or Italian country side (Tuscany) inspired paintings. I am instantly attracted to golds and reds.
Painting is something I started contemplating over the weekend, so I haven’t put a lot of thought into it yet. Good to know about liquitex. Out of curiousity, what woud you recommend for a beginner as a subject to paint?
I’d suggest whatever you’re passionate about. Be it the view from your front porch, your dog, or maybe as simple as a single flower. But that’s just my 2¢.
Makes sense Judy. I am like those people who can’t start something for fear of messing it up. I am trying to get over that too…somehow.
*jumps in wearing “Arthur” thong*
*strikes “Charles Atlas” muscle pose*
*blinks*
Um…WOW!! Check out those guns!!!! *tries not to look @ his boys*
*gets artist pad and assorted pencils*
*studies, sketches Brewski for what seems like hours*
Phew! Finished!
I am by no means an expert on the subject, but I found the still life a very good start when I was learning. Try painting inanimate objects with basic shapes. Do you agree with that advice abstract? By the way, I love your work.
thanks! Yes, I do agree. but like i said below, make sure you know your subject, actually study it. if you look at it from afar and don’t see it properly, then you won’t paint it properly either. and never forget how much fun clor washes are!
I would start with something you feel comfortable with, If you have an art background and feel comfortable with your drawing skills, then I would suggetst you pick a subject matter you like. also, it is nice to plant paintings before executing….unless you paint like me. I ralrely do this, but my style might be abd probably is different than yours will be. study your subject, be it a flower look at it, not just for how it looks, but for how it works. see each little detail. not each petal, but each vein, each speck of pollen, etc. if you don’t want to go into that kind of study, I would suggest the sky. a sunset for instane. it will change as you paint, so you may feel frustrated at first. I do think this is a good exercise, though, because it teaches you to be flexible and to become more comfortable with the medium. you will also want to get some sample canvas boards to practice on. you will not want to use them for your final piece, just for practice. After that, I’d suggest getting a pre-stretched canvas unless you feel up to building a frame and stretching your own. It isless expensive, and you can make it watever size you chose, but it is time consuming. I have to go for now, but i’ll be back in a few if you have more questions.
You’ve given me plenty to think about. Thank you!!!
*squeeze for when you return*
Something that is fun to do is paint an everyday object upside down. It forces you to really look at the object instead of taking it for granted.
this is verry true!
I can do that.
*flips Brewski upside down*
Judy, try painting this again.
Oh, now there’s a different angle for it…
*snork!*
Do I get to choose which one? Because I have a couple of ideas about that.
Please note that the above statement was said with a grin.
I ‘heard’ the grin.
do you see my above comment?
Yup. Responded.
lol, okey dokey…. If I steal your middle finger, you can’t flip me off anymore. Do you know the history of that gesture? Way back when France and England were at war over something and when the French archers were caught the English would cut off their drawing dinger (the middle finger). There fore in a show of defiance and challenge, if you still had your middle finger, you showed it to them in their face.
*shows her drawing dinger to abstract*
Like this?
I wonder if the guys on either side were like, hold on for dear life, man!
I think they were more like “oh it’s just Jim. We didn’t like him anyway”.
HAHAHAHAHA! Love it! Love it!
I think Jim’s just freakin’ lazy.
I was at this game! When that chick fell, you heard a cacophony of laughter fill the stadium. And when she crawled out from underneath the tarp, the non-pansies who were still sitting in the rain stood up and clapped! It was HILARIOUS!!!
Later on, she was in the Reds dugout and Brandon Phillips (the 2nd baseman) was giving her shit! lol
up, oohh, ohh hey guys wait…. oh well, they’ll figure it out later.
I like how they pause for only a second and then just keep going.
I don’t think they’re really allowed to stop. Maybe if the guy had somehow broken a limb or something, but then again, maybe not.
Wait. Why aren’t they allowed to stop?
I don’t know, but surely if they were allowed to they would have?
Maybe they don’t like her/him and just didn’t care?
Must the show go on?
it would get all crooked when they fold it up if they stopped…… well if they leave it this way it will be lumpy.
Not to mention that it is hard to stop that many people running at full speed without being tarped themselves!
Stopping would weaken the grounds-crew gene pool.
Hehe. Just got owned!
I think the best part is how the players are laughing at him
Her.
You can see her pony tail when she bites it. I also remember seeing this on tv when she crawls out from underneath the tarp.
I know way too many dudes with pony tails…
Indeed this is a female. This happened about 3 weeks ago, I saw it live. She did crawl out after it was finished being covered. And, they interviewed her, since there was little going on during the delay (as usual). She took it in stride.
I am sad to say I have done something very similar to that.
Go team clutz!!!
*puts on cheerleading outfit and pompoms*
Give me a C
Give me a L
Give me a U
okay … that’s all I got.
California Lutheran University? They have a campus near where I live. Their mascot is the Regales.
Yeah…that’s it Cloral. I was cheering for CLU!! teehee How did I do?
Don’t know how you could ask for a CLU any better.
There’s a local tech college that has been advertising a lot lately with the abbreviation UTI. All I can do when I see these commercials is cross my legs and laugh about the silly person (likely male) who decided this was a good idea.
Oh. Ow!!! I have the sudden urge to drink some cranberry juice.
Most people end up there after they have failed at the school of hard knocks.
I thought I was the only person who thought that name was funny. My brother-in-law is a graduate of that school.
Reminds me of a call I got from human resources that said “We need you to sign a form stating that you meet the criteria to receive compensation through your STD insurance.”
She still ended up having to say short term disability cause I had no clue what she was talking about.
I had a post-it on my desk for a few weeks reminding me to make sure all the STD paperwork was filled out and filed properly for an employee having surgery. Every time I looked at it I giggled a little.
That’s funny. At my company, I work in the STD (Semiconductor Test Division). I get a chuckle every time I see it on our letterhead or in someone’s title.
Oh wow! I suppose it would be inappropriate to ask where, so perhaps you can just say what kind of products you work on? Sounds like we’re in similar industries.
No. All women would think the name to be funny and not so appropriate. LOL
Yup. I wince every time I see their commercials.
Good job making me feel like an idiot. All I can think of is ‘Under The Influence’ which I’m sure isn’t what you’re referring to.
UTI = urinary tract infection.
Yay Dragon!!!

*Ahem.* I think I speak for all of us when I say:
SPEECH! SPEECH! SPEECH! SPEECH!
“Four score and seven fails ago, our forefailers bought a fourth incontinent nation, dedicated the preposition that all failers shall use Equal in their tea and coffee.”
Now…PARTYTIME!
*squeezes*
Congrats Dragon! Your first powered by, right?
*doesn’t mention he powered two fails*
Wooooo! *Applauds*
*Adds Equal to her tea*
Party time!
Arthur, stop being a(n attention) whore!
*BIG Squeeze*
*Applause*
That was a beautiful speech.
*Wipes away tear*
*wipes tear* So profound. So utterly FAIL!
*grabs beer and joins the party*
I was a slow typer…
Noop, Arthur…this is my second one. I powered one of the very first “powered by” fails.
I always wanted to power one...Now it’s at least a three-way race for the hat trick.
Dang! I thought I was the only one to have powered two fails that made it on the blog. *pouts*
*points out that the Admiral has also powered two fails on the main page*
*doesn’t mention that Arthur wasn’t even the first to power two fails on the main page*
*doesn’t mention that Brewski has never powered a fail*
Oh. Wait.
*adds freshly made pesto to the fridge for the party*
*Adds potato salad to fridge*
*stays away from the potato salad*
Just to be safe.
Potato salad???? : shock : *blinks*
These are all fresh new potatoes that have not been near any vicars or anyone’s behinds. I assure you, the potato salad is safe.
I don’t know Chan. We are tredding on dangerous territory here… *worried*
*swaps extra ‘d’ with an ‘a’*
My spelling abilities have been seriously affected by Moanday. Thanks for the help. : grin :
*pokes potato salad with a fork*

Thank you!
Eating before the guest of honor arrives is rude!
*smacks plate from Lurk’s hands*

OH!!!
Hoisted ‘pon her own…potato!!
Thanks for the pom martinis, sweets….yum.
*glug-glug-glug!*
*congratulatory squeeze*
*Hands Lurk a fresh plate of potato salad*
Sorry about Judy’s outburst, but I guess it came back to her in the end!
*Snickers*
‘tini, please. And a pillow…and some numbing ointment…
*walks gingerly toward drinks*
(Sowwy, Lurk!)
With all this food, no one has yet brought dessert? Thank goodness I have cupcakes and cookies (dark-side free)!
*Adds sweet treats to the banquet table*
Yay Dragon!
I’ll throw in a carrot cake and my banana cake as well. With tons of homemade cream cheese icing.
Suddenly my lunch is looking less and less appetizing…
No kidding! I was going to have Cambells chicken noodley soup.
*throws can off balcony*
MMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmm. Carrot cake…my favorite!
*om nom nom nom nom*
*looks over balcony*
Uh….Jenny? Didn’t you see that Aston Martin parked down there?
*adds hummus with some pitas*
*picks up hummus and pita and takes it home*
Dang it! Ok, I am sorry Judy.
*brings back a fresh batch of hummus and pita bread*
Yeah, I want to yell at you all for making me EXTRA hungry with all the food talk.
*cuts up pitas and pops them in the deep fryer*
*munchity-munchy-munch*
Hmmm…never tried pita fried before. Sounds interesting though. *tummy grumbling*
Thanky!
Woohoo Dragon!!!
*tastes confetti*
Mmmmm…tastes colorful!!!
What’s the deal with those ads in the videos?
They do it to torture us. I’m sure of it.
Hehe!!!
Must be on the same wave-length.
Let’s do it again and declare this day Thursday as suggested. : grin :
Now, is Thursday commando day? Because if so, in order to authenticate the declaration of “Thursday”, we’re all going to need to get underpantsless.
I thought Wednesday was commando day. However, it seems it’s commando day every day around here. *looks @ Ms B and Brewski*
By the way, when is the bbq by the pool going to start?
*runs in with floaties on*
is there a pool party too??
I don’t see why not.
I would fire up the grill but I don’t think anyone would want me to cook their meats.
hmmm….
would they want their meats done well??
I am assuming.
k, well, if you want some help convincing someone to contribute meat, let me know.. I don’t have any on hand myself, sadly!
*sigh*
*considers skwirrlgrrl’s words carefully*
Hmmm…yeah, I have no meat to contribute. Usually it’s BYOM at this bbq.
*wonders why skwirrlgrrl is wearing nothing but floaties*
*considers a vegetarian bbq*
*decides that doesn’t sound like it would hit the spot*
Emp usually grills pineapple for us at the Monday barbecue. Speaking of whom, where is he? And whose pool is this?!
*Looks around, confused*
Aaaahh!!! There's a bear in my pool!*Looks around*
A bear?!? Where?
wait, what?
This isn’t Leila’s pool?
And I’m naked??
*starts franticallyl fluffing up fur*
I didn’t know I had a pool. I feel the pressure to enterain now.
*fills kiddie pool with water and fires up grill*
Okay, who wants the grilled pineapples? I have some veggies that are ready too.
Present your meats…
*wish I knew how to spell today*
*presents Leila with a t*
*dips a toe in the kiddie pool*
that’s kinda warm! and what are those carrots doing in there??
*impersonating clinton*
I did not have sex with that fruit, carrot.
They exist to annoy us.
What ads?
Shhhhhhh!
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang oooooooooooon!!!!!
Perfect quote from dw. One word says it all.
There you are! I was about to go back to the last fail to look for you.
Aw…thanks for thinking of me Judy. I paid attention this time. *squeeze* Next time … it’s a different story…
I like the announcer at the very end:
“Might want to see if there’s a lump…”
You!! Wait there until the rain stops
I like this video host better than youtube. It streams a lot faster.
I have to agree. Maybe it’ll stay this way.
I wonder what the “issues” are?
I can’t play these at all, except on a crappy linux notebook.
The other movies I could just youtube-dl, then watch with mplayer.
(geek mode off)
Youtube are a bunch of bozos. Every couple weeks it’s the same thing. “Failblog has violated the terms-of-use agreement” and whammo, all the vids are blocked. I say just stick with the new provider, and give up on YouTube.
*gives up on YouTube* I can’t access @ work anyway. So just as well.
What was the violation?
I’m curious as to which terms of use agreement they “break” so consistently.
Again?
Apparently. *shrugs*
FailBlog was funnier. Without permission, apparently.
That guy isn’t carrying his own weight.
Talk about laying down on the job!
At least not sleeping like one dude who used to that @ this company.
I’ve never closed my office door and taken a nap!
:angel:
It’s totally forgivable if you had one of those horrid headaches.
*hands Ms B some tarnish remover for her halo*
Nope, the rest of them are!
I think the person got it covered.
He got bailed out by the TARP plan.
As usual, TARP didn’t solve any problems but just covered them up instead.
Have a nice trip.
See you next fall.
^^^ That post has a good chance of powering a fail!
it’s a tarp!
Tarp attack!
My great-aunt is about to die at 107. She’s always been a wonderful person that anybody would love. I’m really sad!
I visited her last year, and am so glad I did. She’s still mentally sharp.
Sorry for such a serious post, I just learned this 1 minute ago.
*squeeeeeeze*
Never an easy thing to deal with.
Aaaw! I am very sorry Brewski. eHug for you {{{{{Brewski}}}}}
wtf?!?!?! why post on failblog?!?!?!
That said, sorry to hear the sad news. Hope she finds peace in knowing you care so much for her.
*thwack*
He posts this on Fail Blog because we are his friends and care about him!
*cheers Ms B*
Brava!!!!
Perhaps I shouldn’t have, but I consider many of the people here as close friends. Can’t say the same for most all the people at work.
Anyway, sorry all, didn’t mean to be a downer. Back to the subject, whatever it was!!
You should and it’s perfectly okay Brewski. Don’t listen to the … *&(#&#!!!!
*squeeze*
I’m so sorry, Brewski. If you’d like to talk about it, you could tell us a story about her–I’ll bet she racked up a BUNCH of ‘em in 107 years.
And Leila’s right…don’t listen to the %@$&-head. You can always find friends and a sympathetic ear here. *another squeeze*
*squeeze*
When I was little, she and her husband would play duets on the saw. They were really good! He was a practical joker. He died of cancer from smoking. When he was in to see his doctor during chemo and radiation therapy, he had a trick light bulb that lit up in his hand. He held it, and it lit up, and he said “Doc, I think I’m getting too much radiation!” He was always a riot.
At her 100th birthday party, she gave a short speech. I’ll paraphrase a bit, I can’t remember the exact words. “When it’s sunny, I’m thankful for the nice weather. When it’s rainy, I’m thankful because it makes the plants grow.” Her choice of words was much more eloquent, but it totally sums up her glass-is-always-half-full personality!
I like her. And her husband. Those are great stories.
*hugs*
They both lived a VERY VERY difficult life. They coped through humor and a positive outlook.
*belated squeeze*
So much history in those lives! Two world wars, the Great Depression, the civil rights movement, flappers, women get the vote, prohibition, Watergate, the first black president, the polio vaccine…* They saw so much change. That must be incredible.
*not necessarily in chronological order.
Sorry to hear about your Great Aunt! I’m very close to my Great-Aunt even though neither of us speak to my Grandfather (her brother). I know how close you can be to great-relatives. The generation gap need not apply!
*belated hugs*
I don’t think he was too much of a %@$&-head. For occasional lurkers something like this must be a bit surprising. At least he expressed compassion.
Anyway, Brewski, feel free to share whatever you want. We all do and that’s one of the things that make our FB a special place.
Expressing compassion was his only saving grace. Reason he wasn’t thwacked with the famous shellacked mackarel.
Hello AE. *squeeze*
An occasional lurker should have the sense not to voice an opinion about something they know little about. A regular lurker should know better.
Ok, you’re right. He’s an idiot.
…but compassionate.
Comp-ass-ionate?
If you say so. Anyone whose first response is “wtf??” to someone who is reaching out for comfort and support doesn’t seem that compassionate to me, but maybe I’m just biased. Tacking on an obligatory “sorry” after that just seems…tacky.
(I was just trying to make Arthur feel better.)
(Woops.)
*sheepish grin*
It’s okay. I honestly tend to forget that there are people out there other than just us. That’s why sometimes I’m a bit startled when a lurker comes out of the woodwork.
*compassionate squeeze*
Sorry to hear, sweetie!
*Gentle hug*
Nothing to say but that we’re here for you. Let us know if you need a serious moment.
^another serious moment.
Awww, sorry.
When you feel up to it you can take the Party-pony out for a spin.
Thanks to all, I really do appreciate it.
You guys are the greatest.
Sorry for getting a bit personal.
It’s no surprise really, I suppose. You know your days are numbered when you get to that age.
My grandmother passed a few years ago at the age of 101. I consider 3 digits to be a “full life”, but I also understand that doesn’t help with the sorrow. Our best thought with you Brewski.
I actually had to smirk a little at getting well-wishes from a Zombie!!
My grandma died at 103. She was bitterly unhappy through most her life. I was actually closer to her sister (the great-aunt I referred to in my post). She’s an inspirational person.
Hopefully I got some of their longevity genes.
I second ZA’s sentiments. 107 does not equal unwanted.
The great creator has a purpose Mr. Brewski, yet it still makes the death journey hard. I offer my prayers to you and your family at this time. A good elder leaves us soon, only to pass to you all that she has learned I hope.
My condolences, too, Brewski. Your personal stories are always welcome here.
Oh no. *squeeze* Stiff upper lip and all that, ok?
Brewski, I’m sorry to hear that.
*squeeze*
*Hugs*
I’m sorry Brewski. It can be sad to lose a family member, but at the same time, it’s wonderful that she is so obviously loved.
That’s no fun, man.
I agree with the Zombifier, though, at least you know we’re all here for you!
*squeezes* Sorry to hear that, Brewski. She and her husband sound like a riot and I’m glad you got to know them so well.
*squeeze*
Sorry to hear that, Brewski.
Keep the Viddler links! They play in my google reader feed instead of having to open another window!!
Wouldnt it be nice to have a failblog forum?
Just to share things like this…
Yeah! And we could call it “Failures in Communication” or something. That’d be cool.
Fabulous idea!!!
Who do we contact?
And…and we could all post comments to each other and reply to those postings! Oooh, the dream…
And we could all pick out cool little avatars...Let’s invent a way how we can express actions. Something like (hugs) or !embraces!
A squish!I’ve got it! &armwrap&
maybe something like #spongewring#?
I saw something like this once, I think it was called “embrace”.
Oh I know where I saw it.. it was Arthur’s post… *shamefully bukkits*
OMG!!!! So many good ideas … I have to write them all down.
*takes copious notes of all the suggestions and mumbles* avatars, things that can help you express emotions.
emoticons? No, sounds too stupid. posting comments…
Anything else?
Well, we shouldn’t just all be posting comments all willy-nilly, we should maybe center them around a certain time of day. Say, start with a funny theme, humorous picture, or short clip. And maybe post these, well for lack of a better name, let’s call them fails. Let’s post these fails throughout the day, so that folks from different time zones around the world can also participate.
On second thought, forget about it. No one would go for that.
Leave it to Judy to make this all complicated and stuff.
Yeah Judy, too complex. I think that if you center it around a certain theme (like your “fail” idea) people might find it too hard to stick to the theme and might go on to talk about other stuff.
And every once in a blue moon we can have bonus fails!
(Come join us!)
That would make all my wishes come true.
Nice name Judy
did he dead?
hope so
That wasn’t a fail – that was awesome. Even though one fell, they still got moving again fast.
It is against the Utah rules for marching bands and winter color guard shows to hold the floors up that high when running them off of the field because people have fallen. I don’t know if its true but I heard that the reason the rule is so strict is because someone got rolled up in the floor and because then don’t unroll and fold it up until sometimes hours later the person died. I am glad that the floor crew noticed that guy fall.
I know this girl. She just got up, walked out from under the tarp, and raised her arms in victory! So proud of her! She even made it to Jimmy Kimmel and ESPN for this!
yay
huehuehuehue… eu ri
I happen to know that fellow personally…coincidentally his sister for many years appeared in horror movies as the chick who inevitably falls and twists her ankle while running away from zombies and other monsters…
I just LOVE how he wiped out and everyone kept going! Saving the pitch > helping the human. *little tear*
Actually, the rain tarp isn’t put over the field. It’s put over the dirt in the infield.
Worst Slip-N-Slide EVER!
A couple of years ago, someone got in trouble with his team (I believe the Chicago White Sox) for using the rain tarp as a slip-n-slide during a rain delay.
Unless the reactions of the people in the shot are the subject of the fail, cam recordings of a television showing the fail is, in and of itself, the ULTIMATE fail. Lern 2 edit, l0zerz.
I love how one guy looks back but does nothing.
“Just keep going! You can’t help him now, he’s already dead!”
I was thinking: STOP PULLING THE FRIKIN SHEET THINGY, YOU RETARDS!!!!!
oh, cincinnati. how we love you.
Slip and Fail
