Got the ropes, got the floor, got the ladder, got a guy i can slam from it, got a lazy guy to lie down infront of the box…where can I get an empty box guys?
I guess I do need to be whipped into shape!

On a related note, has anybody seen the movie “Tie me up, tie me down”? The original Spanish name is “¡Átame!”
all 3 of em get hit by the ladder. >2
- The one guy was slammed onto the floor, and the ladder followed straight down onto his head.
- The other guy who was laying in the corner (WTF was he doing there in the first place) gets the ricochet.
- The guy who slams the first guy mentioned has the ladder bounce off his head as the first guy hits the floor.
Sorry but it doesnt really fit that pun now..

When you stand with your two feet on the ground, you will always keep your balance” -Lao Tzu
The dude who slammed the guy on the ladder can’t seem to keep his balance towards the end, and he was the only one who wasnt on the floor or the ladder at any point!
Lmao, Lao! Proved him wrong or WUT!
I just won the Infinity Lottery!! If you win, they give you an infinite amount of money! The problem is, it pays out $1 on week one, $1/2 on week two, $1/3 on week 3, $1/4 on week 4…
JUDY JUDY JUDY! Some folks on the last fail were looking for you! They needed to ask you a question:
ht tp://failblog.org/2009/09/09/mass%E2%80%93energy-equivalence-fail/#comment-599018
And, I understand that for consistency they pull the water and the gas out of the ground separately and remix them. Am I making that up, or is it true? I wonder if I can find it on the Web somewhere.
Some people are at the top of the ladder, some are in the middle, still more are at the bottom, and a whole lot more don’t even know there is a ladder.

I suspect we know her, but I’m not entirely certain. Maybe she has just been lurking for an eternity, and *poof!*, joins the blog, and blends in with witty comments from day one.
Well, Little Girl? No comment?
Thanks for the lovely comment, Mr. Brewski, Sir. Yup, been lurking for awhile now, and just thought I might add my two cents here and there. You guys crack me up every day! Love all the *snorks* from all the regulars!
Ha! I was convinced you were a regular masquerading as somebody new! Please, just call me “Brewski”, “Brew”, or “hey stupid”.
I was even speculating you might be Judy, since she is mysteriously missing today, and since you are “Blue”.
Sorry Judy! Forgive me?
Shadow is in school now, and GCF is usually on the early shift. He also doesn’t always show up every day, like diehard idiots like me. Speaking of which, I’ll probably be mostly out for a couple weeks, while I have family visiting.
In an album’s liner notes, Neil Young described “Heart of Gold” as the song that “put me in the middle of the road. Traveling there soon became a bore, so I headed for the ditch. A rougher ride but I saw more interesting people there.”
Wow, such a nice welcome from everyone! I feel right at home. Thanks to all.
*puts feet up on gutter curb*
Looking forward to lots of cuddling and insanity!
[Brewski] Of course, sweetness! *smoochiesqueeze*
[all] Sorry for my absence, but this damn law firm don’t run itself! No mystery, friends, just my lust for a regular paycheck.
And welcome to our world, Little Girl Blue.
There were several pun-runs in that fail, along with a long discussion about Vista, AV programs, and Chicago pizza.
Most agreed all three were second-rate (as least as I remember).
Chicago pizza is second rate? Someone please tell me where the first rate pizza is from so I can make a pilgrimage and sacrifice an artery to the pizza gods.
In fairness, the original discussion rated various Chicago pizzerias aginst each other. I just wanted to make the pun simpler (second rate).
Deep dish pizza is a different food than NY/New Haven/Neapolitan pizza, so it’s silly to say one is absolutely better than the other. Of courser, there are thin crust pizza in Chicago too, but I’ve not had them. I am also biased towards New-Haven style pizza, which I eat regularly and the others very infrequently.
I love the true Neapolitan-style pizza. It’s utterly impossible to find in the states. It’s always too cheesy, and they don’t use the super-long rise times and 900-degree ovens. There are places that claim to make 100% authentic Neapolitan, but I have yet to taste one that is close. It is sooooo good.
Y-E-S!!!!
The traditional New Haven pizza does not even have mozzarella cheese, although only purists seem to respect that nowadays. Most famous New Haven pizza: dough, fresh clams, oil, garlic, oregano, Romano cheese. That’s it. No tomato sauce, no mozz.
Margherita is awesome if done right. ie, true fresh water-buffalo mozzarella (not too much though, just a dollop here and there), and garden-fresh tomato. Mmmmmm. Is it dinner time yet??!
Pun run? I’m sorry, I didn’t (and still can’t) see the pun in your comment. I suck. My bad.
*books a flight to New York, Connecticut, and Naples*
By the way, what was the pun?
The word ‘second’ in the time puns. It’s OK, it wasn’t a strong run, and I was just teasing about breaking it.
PS the big three in New Haven are Pepe’s, Sally’s and Modern. All three can be found in New Haven. I’ll let a New Yorker tell you the best spots there, as well as how to fold the pizza correctly to eat it. For Naples, I hear you can go just about anywhere. Read Eat, Pray, Love before you go. (Read it even if you don’t go.)
Wow, I missed that every time I read it. I wasn’t impressed with New York pizza, and am very curious about Connecticut’s as I have never heard of it referenced as a pizza stronghold. As for Naples, it’s eon my list of places to go.
Ok, Dr. Qwaz, now we really are going to need that IV. A III might be good enough for an idiot aneurysm but Judy gets the full treatment. Don’t worry Judy, we’ll soon have your pizza drip running like clockwork.
Not serious, so generally everyone is fine.
*squeeze*
Don’t spare me too much worrying, I rather you all enjoy yourselves more especially during my hiatuses. Which because of my hotel internet may become frequent.
Something about “skanks” doing fail-ish things. I didn’t click on the links in case something wasn’t safe for work. The first !mage was a gal seemingly trying to catch a flying hot dog with her mouth.
One of those kind of ad things — for a different site, “Hawtness.com” (which seems to be having problems loading) — featuring pictures of women to-be-made-fun-of. I personally wasn’t very taken by it.
If you ever hear me say, “Ah, I think I’ll just let that go and not try to find out what happened”, you can assume that I have been abducted by aliens, have gone completely insane, or that the End of Days is coming. :p
Honest jackass Fail…Just so you know the hazzards of being a WANNA BE a Pofessionla wrestler….. Btw is there any body out there that agree with me on this one?,,, the Fail blog presentation is great till,, we hear the voice of this guy saying” DOT ORG” please fail blog can you find a different voice for this.. or just dont say anything,, that voice is just not right.!!!
The comments inserted at the end to frame up the video come from past fails. The FB folks formatting a new video for this site seek out a past comment that will fittingly “tag” the video as a kind of caption.
Can we PLEASE go back to using YouTube vids? Every time a vid is used from Viddler I have to open the post itself just to see if I want to even watch the vid rather than seeing it in my daily email. I know YT had some issues previously but I’m pretty sure they’ve been fixed. Even my video downloader extension works on YT again so I don’t see why we’re stuck with the hassle of Viddler.
Of course a change in the site’s code for generating the daily emails may be possible to work around this issue, but seeing just the post title and not the vid itself is now a royal pain in the arse.
the ladder has rung his bell

We’ll talk about this ladder.
We’ll take it step by step.
This one will be quick to be rung out.

Aww, I was hoping the font would turn all awesome like the Book of Kells.
Me too
One small step for man, one giant headache for an idiot.
Win, actually. The guy on top got hurt more when the ladder fell on his head.
Don’t stringer me along!

I like the ladder one more than the former.
*SQUEEZIES for failfriends!*
Day by day.
Week by week.
Month by month.

Is that what happens when wrestlemania fans breed??
I see this as a ladder win. Anytime you can knock three stupid people at once is a win.
I agree, this is actually a WIN
Definitely ladder win
Did he die?
no, i think he’s still moving XD
He’s moving? That explains the empty box.
kids you are more than welcome to try this at home
Got the ropes, got the floor, got the ladder, got a guy i can slam from it, got a lazy guy to lie down infront of the box…where can I get an empty box guys?
It’s under the doormat, you’ll never find it…
Those sneaky UPS peoples!!!
Kids, don’t try this at home.
You’re on your own, kids.
you and sangrei would appear to be out of step
im a better role model, listen to my advice!
I skip to my own beat.
^ a ♥ skipping beats
My ♥ is skipping quite a few beats.
hee … you don’t miss a beat
He’s not gonna climb that career ladder at that rate.
*squeeeze!*
Nope, he’s going down as a terrible fighter too.
Oh, and…
*squeeeeeeze!*
How-to-wrestle video with step-by-step instructions.
He’s got a leg up on the other wrestler-wannabees.
And he roped his friend into it, too.
Well, hopefully he’ll find solace in the Church of Ladder-day Saints.
a.k.a., teh Ankle-Wranglin’ Moomins?
lol … the doofus three-step
Kill two idiots with one ladder. Even the guy laying in the corner gets hit.
It’s like a modern day version of the 3 stooges.
2stooges1ladder.
No! Bad Brewski, bad!
Sorry, I’ll try to …er…restrain myself in the future.
Let me restrain you…
I see not much has changed…
I guess I do need to be whipped into shape!

On a related note, has anybody seen the movie “Tie me up, tie me down”? The original Spanish name is “¡Átame!”
I love me some Almodóvar movies.
I see we have entered the bondage portion of Failblog Wednesday.
*grabs popcorn and gets comfy*
*munchity-munch-munch…sideways look…munchity*
SHHHHHHH!!!
I haven’t seen that ball-gag in, like, 8 months! I have no idea where I put it.
Last time I saw it, it was…was…
Um. Dilly? Did you forget something…?
We haven’t heard from Coyote in a while…
I found a spiked leather collar, but it’s way too small to fit around my neck! Where am I supposed to…
uh oh.
Yes, where is coyote? Icertainly don’t have him strapped to anything anywhere.
I have ascertained that, apparently.
That’s only because he’s suspicious of all your newfangled devices and bondage technology.
But they look so much like dog toys! I’ll take the batteries out of some of them for him.
all three get hit, stepladderchild
Yeah I know. I guess BF’s modern day version of the 3 stooges is more accurate.
all 3 of em get hit by the ladder. >2
- The one guy was slammed onto the floor, and the ladder followed straight down onto his head.
- The other guy who was laying in the corner (WTF was he doing there in the first place) gets the ricochet.
- The guy who slams the first guy mentioned has the ladder bounce off his head as the first guy hits the floor.
Sorry but it doesnt really fit that pun now..
Ooh, they perfected the ladder attack! That one’s tricky.
Too bad it backfired on the attacker, he looked dazed as he taunted them xD
That’s the trick!
Aha! So who’s the attacker, the guy slamming or te gu getting slammed?
Sorry, my keyboard failed there. I fixed:
‘Aha! So who’s the attacker, the guy slamming or the guy getting slammed?’
Yuck…guys slammin guys.
Now, now…no homophobia please.

Empty box? How disappointing!!!
I demand a refund!
Leila! I haven’t heard from you in ages! What’s this about a refund? I’ll tell you what’s disappointing, dear lady, not having you around!
Aw!! MRN, you are such a sweetheart.
Hope you are doing well. *squeeze*
Can I get you a Chenin Blanc? *looks around for a glass*
How about some Perrier just for now?
Got any booze left over from the wedding?

Haven’t been to a wedding…but we should still have some booze leftover in the FB cellar from a few weeks ago. We had two trucks deliveries…’member?

She’ll need it to survive the next one!
(Her daughter’s, that is!)
ROFL! I was going to ask if you knew something I didn’t know.
I saw how people would read that after I posted, and went “ACK!” Then I got “You are posting too quickly!”
So, what is that warning all about? Is FB concerned about our health when they tell us we are posting too quickly?
Our little ♥s can’t take the excitement!
Good watching out FB!
Hey, girl!
*squeezies*
Welcome back!
I do exercises every day so that I can safely post more quickly.
Thanks DW!
*squeezesback*
MRN, you still have to be careful however. Posting with quickness can be detrimental to your overall well being.
LEILA!!! *pounce!!*
Ack!!!

Hello Judy!!!
I posted to quick … once. If only Leila told us earlier …

No Spoon, he was going up the ladder of failure in life, so his position was shaky.
I’m not usually here for the video fail. Do they always do server maintenance this time of day?
Not that I’ve noticed in the past. Rather annoying.
Methinks someone went after the ICHC site because of “No Cats on the Internet Day” and took us all down.
It’s 9-9-9, so only 99.9% uptime guaranteed.
Is that more than half?
Better than nothing.
Looks like I missed some excitement. I’m awfully glad to see you guys, though.
I’m glad to see 99.9% of them, anyway
Heh. My definition of “you guys” is very specific.
*has an Electric Company flashback*
Looks like they have taken steps to correct the problems.
They’ve been wrestling with some response issues.
I’m glad they’re on top of things.
Hopefully they’ve pinned down the problem.
They just had to flip some hardware.
I bet Gracie’s counting on the site not being down for, um, the count.
You can count on that.
*squeeze*
better ladder than neverer
Laddie got serverered.
ohai, dilly — my eyes are drinking in your new looks
would you like to get ladled?
I’ll flip for ya.
now that’s what I love —
a lassie with attitude, altitude, and no lassitude
Ladder 69?
Hands up here who would be crazy enough to climb a ladder upside down, and have someone else between you and the ladder so you can barely hold on!
That’s part of the rush, silly amateur.
Is that the only number you know, B2th? *hugs*
That, kids, is how you defeat the leg flip throw. Make the thrower hit himself in the head with a ladder!
WARNING! Spectators lying down towards the edge of the screen may be affected!
How much of a fail can it be? That move took everyone out!
Well, if it’s not much of a fail, maybe it’s a …. excuse me, phone’s ringing.
Oh my god.
Yes? You called?
heh … it’s an extension ladder
with a far-reaching impact
Is this an omen? I mean, what are the chances that FB goes down right when I post, hmmm???
We need to burn some incense and chant to clear the hibbiJibbies or whatever they are called.
*presses “Add Comment” button gingerly*
*sacrifices a potato to FB gods*
NO!!! NOT the potato!!!!!!
Don’t worry, Brewski probably has a few more potatoes up his…errr… sleeve.
*shudders*
ew! He probably should get his sleeve checked for fries.
You should have seen me last night. I had a few too many brewski’s, and got really mashed.
Was that you I saw with Dauphine?
Yeah, she was the one with the Pomme-granite juice, on the rocks.
Did you see Judy there with her ET fingerling?
Last time I saw that E.T. tuber, Judy was using it to root around in Arthur’s… er… root cellar.
Has that E.T. thingy ever been sterilized?
Aaaaand, this is why we can’t rename the pun-run breaker corner!
*squeeze*
We do go at a scalloping pace, though.
YESSSSS!!!!
I mean… aaaaaw!!!
Well, Leila does look a little red-faced. But she’s still sweet!
I tried, but Arthur was busy with Julienne. I had to fry.
*adds BaconLube to potato sacrifice*

Don’t eat that!!
*looks around for angry vicar*
Oh NO! Take it back! Take it back!
I had the same thing, ah wasn’t sure if mah post was posted.
Maybe you said something naughty…I am leaning towards blaming it on you.
Nope, Arthur’s fault. Always blame it on Arthur.
Yeah, definately Arthur’s fault.
*thanks silently for taking the blame*
Even when Arthur is not here?
Yup!
It was all Arthur’s fault.
*stops hyperventilating into paper bag*
Thanks!
My goodness. Glad to see you will be okay now.
Your goodness had nothing to do with it.
*backs away, slowly*
Ms B saved you ^ there.
You are clear…for now.
Looks like a WIN to me…
*makes note in log book*
Good thing the log book has infinite pages.
I just won the Infinity Lottery!! If you win, they give you an infinite amount of money! The problem is, it pays out $1 on week one, $1/2 on week two, $1/3 on week 3, $1/4 on week 4…
What happens once they get down to 1/101 of a dollar? What do they give you then?
Either an I.O.U. or an apology.
…OR a government bail out.
Or a swift kick in the (fill in blank).

Hey y’all!!

Are you kidding?!? Asking me about such things when I’m making cookies?
Careful Fuzz. You know how she gets when people make requests of her while she’s working.
*runsawaywithaquickness*
I guess it’s just not the, ah, correct, um, contents.
Let me guess: The ticket costs $2.
Oops! Didn’t read your premise closely enough. Nevermind…
Wrong series!
I am series about this…where is my damn Perrier?
Sorry, Evian here took a sip and it’s all gone!
Evian is just overpriced water, no?
Evian spelled backwards is Naive…think about that one for a moment…
*hump day squeezes*
I tried to find “naive” in the dictionary, but it’s not there!
*suziesqueeze*
It’s in the non-naive version.
Sorry, thought you said “derriere”
*puts pants back on*
Damn!
*puts camera away*
Silly rabbits! Don’t you think I would know where my ‘derriere’ is?
Awww, she called me her ‘derriere’. I need a pet name for her now.
Well, you can be a bit of an ass sometimes.
Hmmmppff! I was having pleasant thoughts and you rectum!
Guys! Guys!! Keep uranus out of this.
We weren’t talking about uranus! We were talking about MRN’s two lunar hemispheres.
As long as you don’t try to land on them. And don’t you dare call Houston when you run into a problem.
*snork!*
*mulls over a multitude of paths this discussion could take*
*decides it best to leave this moon untouched*
*hands Leila a nice, cold, … er… “fresh” Perrier*
Um…thanks?
Well, I mean, how “fresh” can a Perrier really be? They don’t have a sell-by date or anything! It’s just mineral water!
Eau the humanity!
It has to go “PSSHT” when you open the bottle. That’s how you know it’s fresh – well, at least the carbonated kind.
It’s my make-shift Pepsi dang it! I like it.
And, I understand that for consistency they pull the water and the gas out of the ground separately and remix them. Am I making that up, or is it true? I wonder if I can find it on the Web somewhere.
Wiki verifies that story, FWIW.
MRN, you are a plethora of information today.
*squeeze*
Seriously, I didn’t know.
Poor L*B. She disappeared like the Cheshire Cat, leaving only her mask behind (instead of her grin).
Hopefully she’ll feel more like herself tomorrow.
It depends on whose perspective you adopt. To the guy who was getting thrown, it is definitely a win.
I don’t have any sound but it didn’t LOOK like a FAIL to me. Isn’t the point of wrestling to inflict as much pain as possible?
To someone else, yes. To yourself, no. Unless you’re into that sort of thing, of course.
*hides in cooler*
They’re climbing the ladder of success. So what if they step on a few people?
you have to ring a few heads a round to get ahead around here
Only the best make it to the top, losers tap out.
The Ladder of Success’ evil twin…Ladder of Failure.
Some people are at the top of the ladder, some are in the middle, still more are at the bottom, and a whole lot more don’t even know there is a ladder.

OK, but there’s a line… stairs might be faster.
But, but, but … the escalator is right there!
Is Little Girl Blue new?
I suspect we know her, but I’m not entirely certain. Maybe she has just been lurking for an eternity, and *poof!*, joins the blog, and blends in with witty comments from day one.
Well, Little Girl? No comment?
*purses lips*
Hmmm…
Thanks for the lovely comment, Mr. Brewski, Sir. Yup, been lurking for awhile now, and just thought I might add my two cents here and there. You guys crack me up every day! Love all the *snorks* from all the regulars!
We figured as much. Welcome to the family!
*squeeze*
Thanks very much, Leila!
*squeeze to all the FB peeps*
Ha! I was convinced you were a regular masquerading as somebody new! Please, just call me “Brewski”, “Brew”, or “hey stupid”.
I was even speculating you might be Judy, since she is mysteriously missing today, and since you are “Blue”.
Sorry Judy! Forgive me?
Yes, I noted Judy’s conspicuous absence, as well as Shadow’s. Also, have not seen GrannyCatFlap in quite awhile.
Shadow is in school now, and GCF is usually on the early shift. He also doesn’t always show up every day, like diehard idiots like me. Speaking of which, I’ll probably be mostly out for a couple weeks, while I have family visiting.
Ahhhhh. Thanks for the 411!
Hope you have a great time with your family, Brewski. You’ll be missed.
Welcome to the gang, LGB – if you weren’t both insane and living primarily in the gutter, you soon will be
Thanks very much, WhoaNellie!
*looks around*
What a lovely gutter! I think I might stay.
I think the gutter is due to be cleaned but no one really wants to bother with it.
In an album’s liner notes, Neil Young described “Heart of Gold” as the song that “put me in the middle of the road. Traveling there soon became a bore, so I headed for the ditch. A rougher ride but I saw more interesting people there.”

Woohoo! Gutter cuddle??
Oh my. This sounds dangerous.
Why don’t you join in and see for yourself?
Wow, such a nice welcome from everyone! I feel right at home. Thanks to all.

Looking forward to lots of cuddling and insanity!
Cuddling and insanity?
You can’t have both. The universe will asplode.

Just to round it out. You might be able to buy half a cup of coffee with it.
that’s more than half generous
Well, it’s the thought that counts.
Yes, an original thought more than semi sui generis.
… is.
Accidenty dropped your verb you did.
By the Force to remedial verb action take forced I was.
I started a pun run my very first day and didn’t even realize it.
The pun-run du jour? And you were too week at punning to recognize it?
There were several pun-runs in that fail, along with a long discussion about Vista, AV programs, and Chicago pizza.
Most agreed all three were second-rate (as least as I remember).
Chicago pizza is second rate? Someone please tell me where the first rate pizza is from so I can make a pilgrimage and sacrifice an artery to the pizza gods.
New York, Connecticut and Naples Italy, Mr. pun-run breaker.
Are you saying that Starfish sacrificed the pun-run to the pizza gods?
I am wondering why we haven’t sent Starfish to the pun-run breaker/naughty corner.
I agree that a discussion about pizza is more important than a pun-run.
We thought we’d leave that honor to you!
But we’d have to change out the “Leila” nameplate that we affixed there.
*runsawayrealfast*
Hey! Get back here!!!!!
We should leave it there. I earned it.
In fairness, the original discussion rated various Chicago pizzerias aginst each other. I just wanted to make the pun simpler (second rate).
Deep dish pizza is a different food than NY/New Haven/Neapolitan pizza, so it’s silly to say one is absolutely better than the other.

I love the true Neapolitan-style pizza. It’s utterly impossible to find in the states. It’s always too cheesy, and they don’t use the super-long rise times and 900-degree ovens. There are places that claim to make 100% authentic Neapolitan, but I have yet to taste one that is close. It is sooooo good.
Is it possible for a pizza to be too cheesy?
Well, that’s a matter of opinion. I do know I’m often too cheesy.
Not to me!
That’s why we love you but you are making me hungry for some cheese pizza and I am not happy about it.
Best pizza I ever ate was in Venice. I may have to go back there just for the food.
Y-E-S!!!!
The traditional New Haven pizza does not even have mozzarella cheese, although only purists seem to respect that nowadays. Most famous New Haven pizza: dough, fresh clams, oil, garlic, oregano, Romano cheese. That’s it. No tomato sauce, no mozz.
Gouda night, Gracie!
*smooch!*
Brewski, you’re leaving?
MRN, that’s the kind of pizza I am used to eating. I was a culture shock when I saw what they put on “pizza” in the US.
Margherita is awesome if done right. ie, true fresh water-buffalo mozzarella (not too much though, just a dollop here and there), and garden-fresh tomato. Mmmmmm. Is it dinner time yet??!
Pun run? I’m sorry, I didn’t (and still can’t) see the pun in your comment. I suck. My bad.
*books a flight to New York, Connecticut, and Naples*
By the way, what was the pun?
Calendar/time. “day”, “du jour”, “week”, “second”.
Oh, and “FTW” means “For The Win”!
*squeeze*
The word ‘second’ in the time puns. It’s OK, it wasn’t a strong run, and I was just teasing about breaking it.
PS the big three in New Haven are Pepe’s, Sally’s and Modern. All three can be found in New Haven. I’ll let a New Yorker tell you the best spots there, as well as how to fold the pizza correctly to eat it. For Naples, I hear you can go just about anywhere. Read Eat, Pray, Love before you go. (Read it even if you don’t go.)
Of course all three can be found in New Haven. I meant to add, “within a few blocks of each other”.
Wow, I missed that every time I read it.
I wasn’t impressed with New York pizza, and am very curious about Connecticut’s as I have never heard of it referenced as a pizza stronghold. As for Naples, it’s eon my list of places to go.
I hope it doesn’t take you an age to get there.
Or an eternity to find good pizza.
It took me forever to get that pun.
I’d like to gnomon some pizza right now!
I’m to week to dial the number on the delivery menu….pizza i.v. me, somebody???
Nurse, get me some pizza for this patient, stat!
Ok, Dr. Qwaz, now we really are going to need that IV. A III might be good enough for an idiot aneurysm but Judy gets the full treatment. Don’t worry Judy, we’ll soon have your pizza drip running like clockwork.
You broke a potential long one there, Cap.
Right away.
Judy, we keep the good stuff for these important situations.
*Sets up pizza drip XI*
*Took a little while*
Ahhh! I love you guyz – - all the time!!!
Judy! It’s been an eternity since I’ve seen you!
*squeeze*
It’s been 600.000 comments since this started.
(Congrats!)
Better late than ladder.
Look who just showed up late to the party.
What’s the latest, Emp?
Lately I…
The latest says tomorrow we find out how long we are in the hotel and if we should get out the Christmas tree for the hotel.
Sorry I’m late with bringing the decorations.
Why are you in a hotel? As far as the Christmas tree, just go to the lobby.
Yea we probably will, oh and my house was hit by the Toronto tornado from 2 weeks ago and was deemed unlivable for now.
WOW! I am so sorry to hear that Emp. I hope no one got hurt.
Not serious, so generally everyone is fine.
*squeeze*
Don’t spare me too much worrying, I rather you all enjoy yourselves more especially during my hiatuses. Which because of my hotel internet may become frequent.
An overhand Batman punch works too.
POW! ZAP!!! GRONK!
Holy punch-omatopoeia!
sounds ahh-inspiring
I’m thinking this one is a win.
(i)
It’s only a fail if they can’t do it again. This could be a signature more.
Social mores usually lean more toward not smashing people for fun…
Except for gladiatorial sports.
It was too hawt for FB
The bonus fail failed.
I tried but it wouldn’t let me in at all.
It vanished from the face of Faildom, never to be seen again…
What? I guess I missed it. What was it??
Something about “skanks” doing fail-ish things. I didn’t click on the links in case something wasn’t safe for work. The first !mage was a gal seemingly trying to catch a flying hot dog with her mouth.
*shrug*
One of those kind of ad things — for a different site, “Hawtness.com” (which seems to be having problems loading) — featuring pictures of women to-be-made-fun-of. I personally wasn’t very taken by it.
I was unthrilled by the concept — but having a bonus fail on which to play is generally a good thing.
There is nothing wrong with good gardening implements!
It’s nice to have many gardening implements in your stable.
Yeah, but…blah! That sounds awful!
*squeeze*
I think I’m glad I missed it.
I missed it too. Should we cry?
FB giveth.
FB taketh backeth.
Out, damn’d hawtness, out, I say!
Hey! If you say that in a theater, you have to run around three times naked, spit, sing, and post it on Hawtness to get rid of the curse.
FailBlog was beaten back by a wiener.
In life, there are wieners and losers.
Answer: 9W.
Question: Hello, Dr. Wiener. Do you spell your name with a “V”?
Might be cuz it’s late in the day but …
…and when life gives you wieners you…
Say it out loud, and think German.
Nein, W
What does a BMW or Arthur have to do with it?
*flees thread*
*gives Leila some DE*
Blasted infestation is back again!
*perks*
Thanks!!! What happened to the collars?
… make… weiner-ade?
No…you make that tubular bread silly.
Like… a baguette?
*sits in corner and cries*
And I was having sooooo much fun!
Me too – those gardening implements were HAWT!!
*snerk*
I hope they’re not being raked across the coals.
AND THE LADDER GOES FOR THE HEAD AND TAKES DOWN THE OTHER WRESTLER!
It also took down the bonus fail.
WHO WILL FACE THE LADDER NEXT!
I will face him.
Careful there, it’s one bad little ladder. It took out an entire bonus fail on us!
One bad ladder spoiled the litter.
How about someone be my tag team parnter to fight the ladder.
Sigh – you remind me of these guys trying to fight a gazebo.
*hope this works …*
Fail? He took out two guys at once without even holding the ladder. Looks like a win to me
You’re fooling yourself.
Stop joking around.
We’re serious. :[
And we can prove it.
I guess I just have too much time on my hands.
Get up! Get back on your feet.
…and do the hustle!
FATALITY!
three with one ladder!
This just in:
There was just an asplosion outside my house.
Seriously.
My whole house shook and a few pictures fell off the walls. And now a big chunk of the road is gone. More news as it comes in…film at eleven.
Are you ok?!? That’s really scary.
Yes, please find out what happened and take appropriate action. Be proactive.
*smooch*
And careful, too.
It’s okay!!!
Road construction. They are apparently widening the road right outside my house.
I guess the first step is: “Blow up existing road”.
Holy CRAP that was scary!
Did you see Wile E. Coyote on the construction crew?
Hah! I’d wondered why all the sticks of dynamite said “ACME” on them!
*snork*
Did you just tell me to “be proactive”? ME??
*snorkity-snorky-snork*
If you ever hear me say, “Ah, I think I’ll just let that go and not try to find out what happened”, you can assume that I have been abducted by aliens, have gone completely insane, or that the End of Days is coming. :p
*Sowwy*
What I had in mind was, take immediate action to find out what happened.
*still snorking*
Hmmm. There was a HYOOGE explosion right outside my house.
Meh. I think I’ll wait until after dinner to find out what it was.
*SNORK!*
…Okay, I’m done giving you a hard time now. *smoochy-squeeze*
C’mere, I want to whisper something to you… :p :d
*SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAKITY!!!!*
*rubs ear*
YIKES!!! Gas line leak! I think I’d get out of there, now, and call 911!
Nice BFF impression! You forgot to make the jeep explode, though.
I was actually serious, that post freaked me out a bit. This blog needs delete buttons.
*squeeze*
Woops. I think I freaked out a few people there. Sowwy.
*apologetic squeezes*
We’re just glad you’re ok and that it apparently was a “planned” asplosion.
*squeeze*
Why in hell didn’t they notify the neighborhood before blasting? Geesh. It’s lucky some poor soul didn’t have a heart attack.
I probably would have called 3333 as I was running out to see the problem.
I knew you’d handle it; the only practical help I could give was to calmly suggest you put the laptop down for a few minutes.
… or at least take the laptop out with you as you investigate the problem (and then post whatever answer you got).
Of course, you’ve already let us know.
Now if I could stop feeling little earthquakes that don’t seem to be real (water bottles on my desk show no sign of movement).
*gasp gasp gasp*
Okay… I’m okay… never mind. Didn’t mean to be paternalistic. Please ignore me. Nothing to see here.
*slinks away*
It would be a lot more entertaining if you “slinkied away”. Though you might have to be going down stairs for that to work.
*squeeze*
Oh no! What asploded?
Society, man. Society.
I blame society. For society’s downfall. What are you talking about? It makes perfect sense.
It does make sense — particularly the whole social ladder wrestling federation.
Honest jackass Fail…Just so you know the hazzards of being a WANNA BE a Pofessionla wrestler….. Btw is there any body out there that agree with me on this one?,,, the Fail blog presentation is great till,, we hear the voice of this guy saying” DOT ORG” please fail blog can you find a different voice for this.. or just dont say anything,, that voice is just not right.!!!
DOT ORG!!
DOT ORG!!
Why don’t you like it? FAILSAURUS. DOT ORG!
I just watched the two most recent videos on the vote page. Looks like the DOT ORG has been reinstated. Woohoo!
Woohoo!
*does the DOT ORG! dance*
OH YAY!!!!!!
*happy dances*
*claws from the ground*
*sees dancing, hears DOT ORG*
*Grateful Dead dances*
*dances and squeezes*
*janitors from the Janitors’ Union dance*
*and even the zombietrolls dance*
What’s with the guy who’s left standing?
He gives a gesture that hints at “PWNED!” but he didn’t really do anything.
Well, Except for everything…
(Not sure what I was thinking there)
Are you sure there is a there there?
Where there?
But you said That’s what she said said That’s what she said.
That’s what Gertrude Stein would have said.
Learn how you can start backyard wrestling TODAY in my new book, “Hobbies for Hillbilly Morons”
He misspelled “Morans”.
Shoot. Nobody would go fer that fancy wrestling nohow. Empty boxes are expensive!
Moraines?
This isn’t a fail it is a win
*puts a check mark in the log book*
Headshot!
Multi kill!
Anyone else seeing the GAYMATUREDATING ads?
i WISH.
I think thats going to leave a mark!
This may seem like a stupid question, but can somene explain to me how the video gets a powered by before it’s put on failblog?
The comments inserted at the end to frame up the video come from past fails. The FB folks formatting a new video for this site seek out a past comment that will fittingly “tag” the video as a kind of caption.
ouchkabibble
My dog eats those!
It looked a bit like a typed out section of an aneurism.
Indeed, Dr. Qwaz. We need a dicitionary, an IV line, and 500 c.c. of liquid IQ, STAT!
*Gathers requested items*
I couldn’t find an IV line, so I got a III line. Not too high grade, but it should get the job done.
Low-grade comments deserve low-grade lines. Let’s hook ‘im up.
Let’s get this over with. My name reminds myself of Medicine Woman.
Just how much smarter will this liquid IQ make him?
Well, it is 500cc of liquid IQ. But obviously he wastes IQ points at an alarming rate. I expect an increase of 5, maybe 10 IQ points.
Very good. So it’s not a HUGE waste of supplies and he’ll be able to dress himself for a few days.
I’m afraid it’s too late. Theres no wave left in that brain…. Oh well no biggy.
He’s ZA problem now. Too bad ZA’s just going to get a bunch of empty calories from that brain.
Slammed out off the ladder. Let’s roll!
Fatality… Thing one wins!
Aw, I had fifty bucks on Thing Two.
Seems more like a wrestling move win to me.
umm pretty sure that’s a WIN
i cant believe that whoever laughed at it.. sheesh, he got that thing in his head! crap, any idea how heavy that thing is?!
Heavy enough to make him think before he tries something stupid again, I hope. Then again, he probably dont gots much brain sells to spar.
Stupid rednecks.. next time i want to see more blood in a fail like this..
oh yeah,
9.9.09 NO LOLCATS PPL!
CLASSIC F!CKING APPLE! I SHOULD OF EXPECTED THAT TURNING THIS DAY WOULD BE JUST AS BAD AS 2006.06.06!
I’M GONNA GO RIGHT TO APPLE’S DOORS AND HOLD A SHOTGUN TO STEVE JOBS’ HEAD AND ASK WHY HIS ITUNES SOFTWARE AND STORE SUCK @SS!
SCREW THAT! I’M GONNA CHALLENGE STEVE JOBS TO WRESTLING AND DUMP A F***CKING LADDER ON HIS HEAD! HOW DO YOU LIKE THAT! HUH? HUUUUUUUUUUUUUH?!
Therapy, Eddie. Therapy.
I gotta say…it takes effort to fail like that.
This is more like a wrestling move win really.
I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: originality is what makes FB great.
But…
Wait.
I see what you did–
You did, didn’t you…?
*Head asplodes*
An asploding head is why they pulled your medical license, Doogie!
But…
What did I-
What did you think I did…?
Wait.
Wut?
That’s pretty much the best way to get through life in general.
That’s the hottest thing I’ve ever read. See?
Make a wish!
I think they are repeating these…
I think you’re repeating your identity as 99999.
Don’t tell anyone.
My favorite part is the moron standing doesn’t know what to do so he pumps his arms like he’s awesome and can’t break character lol.
Is that a tooth I see flyin?
Can we PLEASE go back to using YouTube vids? Every time a vid is used from Viddler I have to open the post itself just to see if I want to even watch the vid rather than seeing it in my daily email. I know YT had some issues previously but I’m pretty sure they’ve been fixed. Even my video downloader extension works on YT again so I don’t see why we’re stuck with the hassle of Viddler.
Of course a change in the site’s code for generating the daily emails may be possible to work around this issue, but seeing just the post title and not the vid itself is now a royal pain in the arse.
“Wrestling fail” is a bit redundant, but the judge will allow it.
This is a crap entry. All wrestling is a fail. Seriously, this is the best you can do out of all the thousands of entries?
That looks more like a wrestling WIN to me
Im with Sy thats a win for sure.
more like win.. he took 2 guys out with the ladder lol
Ouch lolz
DOUBLE KILL!
ROFL!
*look to the far right of the vid,
The ladder hits a second person. lol*
Don’t try this at home… unless you have a video camera rolling.
That’s the basic concept of Failblog.
What a dumbass.
For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
This one, on the other hand, is equal to retardation, and the opposite of intelligent.
The name of the video seems redundant
well, I usually don’t laugh when people get hurt, but boy this is hilarious
Funny guys! Why was he connected to the leader?
Well they did say don’t try this at home.
Thats more like a win. xD
Headshot
