I want to turn it off!
Well you can’t!
There is no off position on the fail switch!
There is ffo on position on the fail switch!
What happen?
Chuck Norris would disagree.
.
…and while I’m at it:
In Soviet Russia switches turn you!
Eleven!!!1
It’s a beginner switch. One concept at a time.

..
Erica
Fly Fat Azz Fly!
I was looking at your spam link and saying the same thing.

You ruin the concept of fail.
Apple designed it, just like the one-button mouse.

straight up your butt
lol j/k
Its polarity. It changes the direction of the current. It’s not a fail if you understand it.
THIS IS NOT A FAIL !
These switches exists. they are made to switch between two lights for example.
It isn’t hard to turn on!
Just twist the knob a bit?
Screw to the left a bit, or to the right, whatever you prefer!
I think I’m gonna bolt for a while!
Bye peeps.
*waves*
Ah Nuts,
*sulks*
You win, I’ve been shafted.
Don’t Pile it on MRN!
I see what they did here. It’s been installed upside down. The options should be “NO” and … umm … “NO”.
Psst.
V V V
Ahoy, shipmate!
*makes note to visit local “Beard and Pipe” shop on his way home*
*fondly remembers when he bought his first beard*
I must have a picture somewhere.
Found it.
They tried to make me go to qɐɥǝɹ --- I said, "ON ON ON."What? You must be nuts to leave now!
24-365 protection, guaranteed.
The kind of switch for these debates that are going on and on.
photoshopped
It kept going on and on…
… sounds debatable
?????
On – oner – onest.
Onset?
only – ornery – honestly
I bet its the switch to the electric chair
Have a seat and lets try it Abignoob?
: shock :
*MADE IN CHINA*
Nope! Made by Ariston.
continuous water?i guess
I hate it when the water is left on!
Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you
That is how I know you go on.
Wet dreams?
Far across the distance
and spaces between us
You have come to show you go on.
I’ve got a sinking feeling this could go on and on and on…
Just like the Energizer Bunny…
AAAAAAAAGH!!!! No ear worms today…and ESPECIALLY not THAT song!!!!
*searches for anti-earworm ear plugs*
*can’t locate them*
*uses the Heart of the Ocean to plug ears*
Btw…..HAPPY HUMP DAY!!!
i miss all the old failboats..
Near, far,
wherever they are,
I believe that the failboats do go on.
It says ON – NO.
So: switch turned to left: PDL.
To the right: NO LDP.
Leaning Dental Patients?
Hello K@tcf are you turned “on” or “on”?
No Liberal Democratic Party? Darn….
maybe it is just a kind of circuit switch, you just toggle between two separate circuits, like you can have either a tv on, or a fridge on, not both at the same time.
Well, then, I would have labeled them “Not the other one” and “Not the other one”.
Half way is “Not the other one one”
o non!
Do you suppose the switch is made out of an exclusive ore?
Ore what?
I am Tinking I should shut my cakehole!
*stares at cake*
You gonna finish that?
*shares coke & cake*
*turns switch from “cake” to “eat it too”*
LOL ⇔ LOL
i think it’s a bit like the wierd valves you get on gas hobs/fires and the like… that go from low… medium… high… OFF. Or high… low… high… off.
In this case,
Straight up: Off. Which is “PDL” in the moon language of whereever this came from. (Or – straight down?)
Turned to either side: On. Possibly with opposing polarities. So when someone asks you in a panic to “reverse the polarity!” to defeat the bad guys, you can reply “no problem!” as you flick the switch over.
You lost me tahrey.
Wassamatta, 5 eagles — you don’t speak moon language?
No I don’t fuzzz good morning.LOL
How about Moomin Language?
Or Clanger?
“Reverse the Polarity of the Neutron Flow.”
Jon Pertwee’s pet tecnobabble phrase.

“It’s Mega Maid. She’s gone from suck to blow.”

I hate it when my schwartz get twisted…
Also the best way Kup knows of defeating Decepticons
Good morning all. I think I will stick to this fail today the guy one is not my cup of tea.
You’re more turned on by this one?
RRR RRR RRRR(Tim Allen sound affect) yes this one is a man’s thing MRN.
hehehe does he have a choice?
(:

Jam, you appear to be facing the wrong way, are you OK?
Oh scratch that O::O
*scratches*
*pounces and squeezes*
PDL is the brand name.
It is a changeover switch. It is not for turning the juice on and off with, but selecting which device the power goes to.
Thank you TuT Someone who gets it!
Either way you slice it, this knob is turned on.
*shudders at the use of “slice” and “knob” in the same sentence*
Might be what electricians around here call “schema 3″, the kind of wiring where you can turn on the light at on switch and turn it off at another. So if the ligth is on depends not only on this switch, but on one or more others, too. So how to label something like this??? The given solution looks not too bad
Which on do I want?…I don’t know…*starts bouncing from foot to foot and whining*
Is this thing on?
On. . .and on. . .and on. . .and on. . .and ariston. . .
*cue target renegade music*
Booby traps! :p
*knowing smile*
My, my, you’re both looking quite switched-on, this fail…
It’s like a win/win situation, only different because it’s not a situation. Or possibly even a win.
♪ I never give you my number
I only give you my situation
and in the middle of investigation
I break down ♪
Ahhh, that’s more like it (even though it’s written by Paul and not John)
I don’t recognize this song, but since the Web site says it’s Abba it must be an earworm for somebody out there:
♪ On and on and on
Keep on rocking baby
‘Til the night is gone
On and on and on
‘Til the night is gone ♪
Woah,
I just realised, we have found the root cause of Insomnia!
*stares in dumbfounded shock*
This is the switch built into every small child.
ADHD, ADD
*runs off into the distance*
*runs back*
I could have danced all night….
*hums*
*skips off again*
I’ll join you as soon as I cut all the tags out of these clothes.
Oh I know what this is! It’s the switch to my mother-in-law’s mouth!
Oh girl, turn me on.
Are you the vodka or the AK-47?
Both, and the band also
Great, we can get drunk, sing romantic songs of dissidence, and then shoot everybody. My evening’s planned.
Multiple choice…
It’s a Polarity switch, which is why it’s labeled “Pol” at the top. Straight up is off. Left is reverse polarity, right is normal polarity.
On and Mor-on.
[UGotServed]
Ooooo, now it’s ON!!!
[/UGotServed]
ON/ON switches exist. This is a Failblog fail. :3
Definitely NOT a fail. the center position is OFF, unless the dead man pedal switch (PDL) is pressed. This is for a machine that is usually on, and only needs to be off momentarily. pretty common type of switch.
PDL Is the brand name, it is a New Zealand based company owned by Schneider.
I hate to break up the fun times — but that’s a Hannifin divergent valve control, which in this case — it’s made correctly.
Lol I’ve seen this on a switch for PCBs too
This look like the battery switch on the fire truck. You can turn on different sets of batteries, to turn it off you lift and turn and the switch stays up, when you rotate the switch to on it falls to that position.
Hopefully its for to turn two different things.
I can’t turn off!
Switch fail, or electric company win?
Its one thing to screw up a sticker, that’s easily fixed. Or maybe even a factor painted label. But no one noticed that the mold they were about to pour metal in was wrong??
Hold on, lemme fix it. I jsut need to turn it off so I don’t electrocute myself.
Wait a minute…
“Pol” is obviously short for Polish.
First!
Hahaha I actually have one of these at my school.. controls the heating vents in our classroom. Damn someone uploaded it first :/
Hmm its a maths switch i assume… to the left is negative to the right is positive so assuming on as -1 and + 1 . so if i dial it to -1 + 1 = 0 so its off in binary format so to switch it on i dial it to -1+1+1 = 1 so its on in binary format hmmm seems like this switch i mean for computers ….
It’s for a gas line. I work for a propane company and you set two tanks and hook both up with separate lines to the switch. When one tank runs out you switch to the other tank.
yeah haz. the light switch at our school
you are always turned on, never able to be turned off even if its an ugly person rofl…..
atleast it’s always turned on
Nice thing for Italians: PDL is the short for Popolo Della Libertà, the Berlusconi’s party. We have no choice, sad but true standing to the current political situation in Italy.
Turn it off! Turn it off!!
“I’m sorry Dave, I can’t do that…”
I want to put the lights off not on!
its not a breaker its a switch between two on positions, instead og opening and closing one circuit, it closes two circuit
circuit 1: 0
circuit 2: 1
and vice versa
To turn it off you must turn the button on the middle
