You might want to upgrade to a Blackberry or something…Wait, I have one of those counters they use at clubs *hands to LGB* it’s more green than using paper, and at the end of the day, you can just enter the number instead of counting checks.
True story: When I was a kid, there was this little boy down the street whose parents were friends with mine. My father taught the kid to answer the question “What do you want for Christmas?” with “I want a chainsaw!” His parents never did forgive my dad for that.
For Christmas one year my dad gave the kid (long since grown up) a chainsaw pendant on a necklace. I saw it a few years ago when the kid randomly came into the store where I worked. That kid is about 27ish now.
Well my dad gave it to him when the kid was about 20 or so, so yeah, I bet he still wears it on occasion. It was what you might call a long standing joke between the two families.
Last year, Santa came to visit my daughter’s preschool class. He took time with each kid & asked what he/she wanted for Christmas. One of the kids said, “a hatchet!”
Random story in the same vein. I used to catch hell from the in-laws because I did not teach my son Spanish even though they were the Hispanics and I am not. So I caved and taught him to say “mi papa es un bendejo”. Nothing like hearing that from a 3 or 4 year old to get them off my back
Exactly. I can speak it but it isn’t my first language and I speak it like my ex speaks engrish. He was too lazy to try to get him to understand and he conveniently disappeared when they were on me about it. And he wonders why I always introduced him as my first husband long before the divorce.
guess I didn’t watch enough psycho movies… all I know is that when in Texas, I am not allowed to stop for bbq. Nor am I allowed to watch any movies about massacres.
Clickie my nickie. I keep seeing people here in Arkansas that I know should be on that site but I am afraid I will get my @ss kicked if they see me taking a picture. The site has gotten some negative publicity here in the heart of Walmart country.
There are a couple of transvestites on there that I think I have seen in one of the Walmarts near our old office in Florida. It’s a sight etched into my memory forever.
Hey, I usually catch hell for having less than delicate links my in my clickie. I have grown since then, plus all my bookmarks were wiped out in a hard drive crash
Before clicking on a link, see if anyone else has first and what their reaction was. If you trust the person, go right ahead. Most of us DO give warning if it’s questionable. Most of the time anyway!
Good morning all!
Oh, wait… it’s not morning. I guess I’m running a bit late!
Did you find it on failpeeps? Dragon can add it. Actually, so could I… I’ve never actually edited the site tho. This hi-tech stuff is just too hard for me!
The fail is that the person said it was near to school supplies you idiots. I guess this “champion” in life has a 5 aisle radius to where back to school should be next to masks.
A: Dig a big hole, fill it up with ashes, put a line of peas around the outside, and when the elephant goes to take a pea you kick him in the ash-hole!
once upon a time, I took the kidlets to the circus. part of the clown and pony act included the clown pretending to stick his head up the pony’s patoot. one kidlet was traumatized; the other goes to circuses hoping to see a repeat.
I’m in Arkansas, imagine. My friends in NJ and FL keep asking if I have met anyone and I just look at them funny. I am not quite the right cup of tea for these people. I took the Bible belt, cut it up and made it into a cute bikini top.
I’m in Arkansas, just think. My friends in NJ and FL keep asking if I have met anyone and I just look at them funny. I am not quite the right cup of tea for these people. I took the Bible belt, cut it up and made it into a cute bikini top.
I feel you. We lived in TX for almost 6 years (God help me) and the reason we went back to have the wedding in AZ is because we really do not know anyone here. My kid is very outgoing and has ‘friends’ but not the kind she has in AZ. One flew to AZ from here and he is our buddy, our hairdresser.
It was kind of drepressing to come back here. We’re not anti-social but something huge is amiss.
That’s another thing that drives me bananas about this state and OK. Why are they so stupid crazy about football? Aggies this. Longhorns that. OU this … I soooooooooo do not care!!!
My step daughter who attends OU got pissed at me for wearing a longhorn t-shirt. Orange isn’t allowed.
The ugly in me came out one day and I told her that I didn’t come to this country for someone to tell me what colors I can and cannot wear. I felt bad later on but I have no loyalty to any team so I just don’t care. *sigh*
LOL, I’m a proud Native Texan and I just moved back home from 8 years in California. I’m so glad to be back – CA is definitely not for me. Especially the Bay Area, where I lived.
I’ll say it again, Texas is a whole ‘nother country and California is a whole different planet!
*squeezies to all whether they love or hate TX, especially poor leila*
For most, home is where they spent most of their life when growing up. For me, home is the Pacific Northwest. I’m totally comfortable there. The northeast is… different, somehow. And Texas? No offense, but no thank you. Nice place to visit, but…
I agree that we are worlds apart, DITH, I never did feel the slightest bit comfortable there, or even where I was born in Louisiana. Once I came out west I knew immediately I was home.
*tengallonsqueezes*
That football insanity is also rampant in Chicago. I love orange, and wear blue jeans all the time, so most people think I’m supporting the team. Um…. I’m really really not.
Husker fans define football insanity. I can’t tell you how many Husker yard decorations I see around town. And God forbid anything gets done on game days. Bleah.
Ugh, Razorback Red is the color of choice for vehicles here in NW Arkansas. I’m a Florida baby and I understand all too well about college bowl with UF, FSU and UM down there but this place is crazy. I think it’s because they have no pro teams to deflect the hysteria.
Hun, I live in NC…smack in the middle of UNC & Duke war zones. Talk about living dangerously, mention anything collegiate-related during ACC season and a riot will break out!! These freakin’ people are nutz!!!
ROFL!!! They sound like my family but unfortunately, that’s all I’ve got. Our extended family is back home still so it’s just us sisters and our kids and our…ahem, mommy.
My company moved me here from NJ and I work from home. Not a good starting point to make friends. I am currently buying them with cakes. I have been getting all kinds of invites lately to parties because I will bring the cake It works.
Girl, they’ve lost me already. I found that most of them are nice to your face and they stab you when you aren’t looking. Maybe it’s a corporation ‘thing’ more than it is a Texan ‘thing’ but it does rub you the wrong way. I have 3 girlfriends whom I love dearly. Since we live so far away from each other, we go out to dinner once a month to catch up and hve a drink. So life is good.
My daughter and I don’t have a problem with it. We find pretty much everything we need for our diet. The rest of our household are into meat which makes it kinda weird but we work it out.
I make all kinds of cakes, including “risque”. I am working on a new website so I can get them posted. Clickie my nickie for one of my cakes on photobucket.
I looked at your cakes. I really like the naughty ones, like the bed and hot tub. I really like your use of Pirouette Rolled Wafer Cookies (to see what that is, clickie) and Twix around the cakes.
It’s almost like a diary in cake! Now that’s journaling I could get behind! Very inspiring.
I have no idea why, but my daughter googled B ible School when she was about 14, and was very upset at some of the links that came up – homosexual porn sites!
Can anyone tell me why?
Anyway, the reasons are probably the same.
True story… haunted corn maze near where I live, group of friends walking through talking loudly about how they aren’t scared of anything in the “kiddie corn maze.” At that point, one of the guys working in the maze jumps out from behind a stack of bales of straw with his chainsaw (actual chain removed for saftey, but the motor was running) and yelled. One of the girls in the group screamed at the top of her lungs, turned, and bolted… right into another stack of bales of straw. The guy with the saw started laughing so hard he was bent double and dropped the chainsaw. The girl then proceeded to get up, and chase the guy through the rest of the maze brandishing his saw and trying to beat him with it.
Yep; might not want to disclose location of this Wally…pissed newbie on rampage would know exactly where to shop for all their revenge needs.. (oooh! PNOR…Pissed Newbie On Rampage…lol)
Due to circumstances, I can’t play on FAILblog anymore. I didn’t want to just disappear and have people think I was hit by a low flying plane or anything, so I’m posting this.
It’s been a lot of fun – I love ya all, and I wish you all the best!
And this is why I add people to my myspace page, even if I never look at it.
WN, seriously you were always one of my favorites. Much squeezes, and hopefully you aren’t gone forever.
Oooh, so you swing both ways?
I’m facebook only, and that has been keeping me way too busy already. The only reason I would join MySpace is Arthur, but I still hold out hope that we can lure him over to Facebook!!
I have some issues with Facebook, sorry. One of those is that it apparently already knows me – when I created an account under my AE-alias it immediately offered me three people to add as friends. I actually did know all of these three – in real life. Kinda scary, dontcha think?
Leila - Made of Toxic Cocoa with Shiny New IgnoreButton™ says:
Folks, it’s OK – stuff just came up that prevents me being here. But thank you all for the sentiment I really have enjoyed FAILblog a lot, and there are a lot of very talented, funny, and sharp people here. I’ve had a great time And thank you for caring so much – you kinda blew me away here.
I don’t always catch comments that were posted in a timely manner. If I don’t reply to something, it’s just an oversight. Or, I’ll just poke or molest you in the latest posted fail to acknowledge your existence.
I just found out about the sad news, and I’m vitrually crying. WN, you were one of the first to welcome me here, and I always look forward to your posts, among others.
RMA, my friend!
(P.S.: You can tell me the truth – it’s Arthur’s fault, isn’t it?)
You’ll be missed. A lot. Try to pop by in the evenings at least?
I’m glad you at least said goodbye. I hate having people simply disappear.
*special squeeze*
Off-topic, but does anyone know how long the backlog of submissions usually is? I submitted something a week and a half or so ago and still haven’t seen it on the vote page. I thought it was funny…
Seriously? But then what is the vote page for? Especially since I sometimes see the same thing posted multiple times if it got voted down the first time…
I’d accept that people voted down my submission if they at least got a chance to vote on it!
Chainsaws? Halloween masks? AND it’s near the children’s Miley Cyrus backpacks? At this point, all I can say is “Saint Jude, thank you for favors granted!” Scaring little annoying children is a win any day, especially if they’re Twihards or Hannah Montana freaks or both.
well i got to say it dose go perfect for accessories soo you cant say this one is a totall fail give or take the season of hey f*^*#% imma by a mask and a god dam chain saw and f$#% yah kiddies up with it but maybe thats what a physco would think or anyone who watches reads a lotta thrillers
How is this a fail? i want to be a sadistic serial killer for halloween and this is helping by making my trip to walmart much shorter and thus more enjoable
Had a guy get on the bus yesterday with red smeared all over his shirt carrying an oversized knife and wearing a hockey mask… I really hope he was going to a halloween party…
What? It’s the perfect accessory to a costume!!
Ok, so which Psycho do you wish to imitate today?
Imitate?
*Shifts nervously*
*Tries to exit room without making any sudden movements*
No, Mr. Hitchc0ck! Not the birds!

Oh no the evil grin.
Oh relax! I have to be going anyway, the windows, they need washing. As does the rest of the apartment!
Toodles! I may be back later this afternoon!
*positions potato on floor near windows*

What with floor to ceiling windows that cover the ENTIRE wall!
That and the apartment is on the 27th floor.

Oooooo! I like it, BG! Thanks!
*clickclickclickclickclickclickclickclickclick* It works great!
BTW: How’s the vertically-challenged amusement park development going?
ywah i would add this as a win too
I concur, that is most definitely a win.
DAMMIT!
*makes √√√√s in log book*
Oooh, Jason Vorhees, for the win!
In that case, may I interest you in this fine machete? On sale this week only!
Don’t you think you should have at least washed it?
Oh! I’ve got a coupon for that! One, please.
(I’m gonna kill on Halloween!)
Coupon? For what? A piece of Texas bbq?
May I recommend Soulman’s BBQ in Garland, TX?
You can’t beat their meat!™
Don’t do it sauerkraut. Just don’t.
Can I?
Costume? methinks whose are safety masks on the right.
In place of goggles?
Yeah. You don’t want all that blood and icky stuff on your face when you’re working.

Erm… what’s wrong?
Chainsaws scare me.
Psycho killers, not so much.
True story: When I was a kid, there was this little boy down the street whose parents were friends with mine. My father taught the kid to answer the question “What do you want for Christmas?” with “I want a chainsaw!” His parents never did forgive my dad for that.
*snorks*
I will remember that for my god daughter!
For Christmas one year my dad gave the kid (long since grown up) a chainsaw pendant on a necklace. I saw it a few years ago when the kid randomly came into the store where I worked. That kid is about 27ish now.
Still wearing it??
Well my dad gave it to him when the kid was about 20 or so, so yeah, I bet he still wears it on occasion. It was what you might call a long standing joke between the two families.
Besides, how often do you see a chainsaw pendant? Has a morbid coolness.
LOL!
Last year, Santa came to visit my daughter’s preschool class. He took time with each kid & asked what he/she wanted for Christmas. One of the kids said, “a hatchet!”
During the gas crises of the seventy’s my father gave me a push mower for my birthday. He thought it was funny.
Parents think all kinds of unfunny things are.
*squeeze*
*Squeeze*
That’s what my kids keep telling me . . . oh . . . drat.

Random story in the same vein. I used to catch hell from the in-laws because I did not teach my son Spanish even though they were the Hispanics and I am not. So I caved and taught him to say “mi papa es un bendejo”. Nothing like hearing that from a 3 or 4 year old to get them off my back
ROFL!!!!
pendejo, no?
They always said bendejo. But then again, they always used vos instead of tu. Crazy Nicaraguans.
I pronounce v’s as b’s and I use tu form…
WIK! Nice to see you!
It just occurred to me that your acronym could be short for wiki, therefore making it appear as if you are very learned. Win/win!
That was not the original intention… but I’ll take what I can get.
Are you a crazy Nicaraguan?
I’m a crazy southern Californian, (its much, much worse!)
WIK how is the knee?
Just noticed this hiding up here.. The knee is healing great, I can walk again and I hardly limp at all! Thanks for asking.
Why wasn’t the father held responsible for teaching him?
Exactly. I can speak it but it isn’t my first language and I speak it like my ex speaks engrish. He was too lazy to try to get him to understand and he conveniently disappeared when they were on me about it. And he wonders why I always introduced him as my first husband long before the divorce.
“My first husband”
Pfft
I’ll have to remeber that.
How about Future Ex Husband?
How about Soon To Be Ex Husband?
Hey! I’ve got one of those!
A-HAA! See you soon, sweetie!
Sure, oh, and say hi to the GF for me.
Will do.
(I hope you’re feeling alright.)
Fan-tastic! *SUPERDUPERSQUEEZE*
Great!
That’s what the chainsaw is for…
In-laws never pick on their own kid.
That totally would not stop my father.
Generally I agree.
However I do know a couple that divorced, and then her parents only invited him to Thanksgiving that fall.
ooo BURN. That’s horrible.
Family fail.
Do you know why?
I think it had to do with him catching her cheating on him, and her telling him to “Close the %&*#@! door.” Her parents didn’t view that too highly.

guess I didn’t watch enough psycho movies… all I know is that when in Texas, I am not allowed to stop for bbq. Nor am I allowed to watch any movies about massacres.
How do you NOT stop for BBQ in Texas?
And, every good haunted hayride or country haunted house has at least 3 guys with chainsaws running around.
Not even Alice’s Restaurant Massacree?
What? All your Halloween needs in one place.
One stop shopping!
That’s one way to make it realistic…
*switches out Judy’s second s for a c*
chainsaws do not chop; they rip.
rip in piece.
Rest in pieces
Rest In Ripped Pieces
If they widened the picture, you would see coffins over to the right.
If they stepped back to widen the picture they’d fall into the freshly dug grave.
And the lid would slam shut on the coffin.
And they’d wish they bought the chainsaw.
*snork*
Luden’s®, it’ll stop the coffin!
*snorkcoff*
om nom nom
I know this is a timeliness thing but *yawns* I am not feeling it.
If it included some “people of walmart” in the shot would it help?
Only been to walmart once and I never will do it again. So to answer your question…maybe(?).
Clickie my nickie. I keep seeing people here in Arkansas that I know should be on that site but I am afraid I will get my @ss kicked if they see me taking a picture. The site has gotten some negative publicity here in the heart of Walmart country.
I keep expecting to see some of my family members on that site. No, really, I do!
There are a couple of transvestites on there that I think I have seen in one of the Walmarts near our old office in Florida. It’s a sight etched into my memory forever.
Thank god I no longer have family in Florida!
Of course, now most of my folks live in Texas, so it’s kind of a draw.
Never say draw in Texas Avis.
Good advice!
LMAOOOO
*eyes twitching*
Why…why Ry.
*faints*
Hey, I usually catch hell for having less than delicate links my in my clickie. I have grown since then, plus all my bookmarks were wiped out in a hard drive crash
Yeah Leila, you should thank your lucky stars you missed some of her earlier links!! Baby Jesus in particular.
Oh I still have that link
It’s a keeper. hehehe
Oh dear.
*hides*
*hides with Avis*
I have extra protection with Big Brother watching and all but some links do go thru.
CLICKIES ARE EVIL!!!!
Before clicking on a link, see if anyone else has first and what their reaction was. If you trust the person, go right ahead. Most of us DO give warning if it’s questionable. Most of the time anyway!
This should be added to the FB manual. Where is Brewski?
I’m usually good about warning but it doesnt make the bad ones any better
It is at the failpeeps site. Somewhere.
I sometimes right-clikc on the linkie, copy it and paste it into google, to see what it is before clicking.
Also, I might right-click it.
…I right click and go to properties to peek at the URL address.
Hey no peeking. Get your own URL.
Good morning all!
Oh, wait… it’s not morning. I guess I’m running a bit late!
Did you find it on failpeeps? Dragon can add it. Actually, so could I… I’ve never actually edited the site tho. This hi-tech stuff is just too hard for me!
It’s still morning here. *Loans Brewski pacific time zone*
Thanks!
*good-morning squeeze*
We just had our company Halloween party. It didn’t amount to much.
why was dog in the wal-mart? buying food?
That site should come with a lifetime supply of mind/eye bleach.
I’m surprised there haven’t been pictures of people from my area on there yet. I’d take some pics, but I don’t want to break my camera.
*shudders*
It’s further proof of why I avoid that place at all costs.
Good morning everyone!
Buenos Dias!
I think this should be product placement win.
*makes note in logbook*
*adds yuletide log to logbook*

hahaha Niceone!!
The fail is that the person said it was near to school supplies you idiots. I guess this “champion” in life has a 5 aisle radius to where back to school should be next to masks.
No need for name calling you big poopie pants!
*chases Ry*
But but but he started it!
That was relatively harmless. TT is an asshöle.
HeeHee!!!!
*specialThursdaysqueezyAE*
Reminds me of an old joke:
Q: How do you catch an elephant?
A: Dig a big hole, fill it up with ashes, put a line of peas around the outside, and when the elephant goes to take a pea you kick him in the ash-hole!
That can be dangerous. Clicky.
*squeeze*
Elephant WIN! I enjoy watching someone who acts like an idiot getting exactly what they deserve.
Oh, that’s just gnasty!
*goes in search of mind bleach*
once upon a time, I took the kidlets to the circus. part of the clown and pony act included the clown pretending to stick his head up the pony’s patoot. one kidlet was traumatized; the other goes to circuses hoping to see a repeat.
I guess that would be classified as a winfail…
I am thankful it’s blocked then.
Would you like a short description, sweetie Leila?
Yeah no.

The TT coupe is made by Audi. And Audi is a fail.

There’s not enough soap in the world! At least not once she and Mookie get on a roll.
But then, it’s one of the things we like about them!
Ah…sounds like my daughter IRL. She would make a sailor blush.
I’m in Arkansas, imagine. My friends in NJ and FL keep asking if I have met anyone and I just look at them funny. I am not quite the right cup of tea for these people. I took the Bible belt, cut it up and made it into a cute bikini top.
MAKES SENSE YOU ARE FROM ARKANSAS YOU SEEM LIKE THE TYPE TO BE THE OFFSPRING OF BROTHER AND SISTER.
Well, you type like one.
IN and FROM are two different things. I am IN Arkansas, not FROM.
Imma sneak in a repost
I’m in Arkansas, just think. My friends in NJ and FL keep asking if I have met anyone and I just look at them funny. I am not quite the right cup of tea for these people. I took the Bible belt, cut it up and made it into a cute bikini top.
Your comment will eventually make it out of moderation, unless you used foul language. Eventually. Might take awhile. Might not.
That is a very peculiar choice of words to moderate.
Apparently the p0rn sites use it a lot to try to sneak in pics. And I think it’s more a WordPress thing than a FailBlog thing, but whatever.
Porn sites? On the internet? Why didn’t you tell me about that? I’ll be back…

Don’t believe them, Arthur. I’m sure it’s just a nasty rumo(u)r.

That’s another thing that drives me bananas about this state and OK. Why are they so stupid crazy about football? Aggies this. Longhorns that. OU this … I soooooooooo do not care!!!
My step daughter who attends OU got pissed at me for wearing a longhorn t-shirt. Orange isn’t allowed.
The ugly in me came out one day and I told her that I didn’t come to this country for someone to tell me what colors I can and cannot wear. I felt bad later on but I have no loyalty to any team so I just don’t care. *sigh*
I used to live in TX… *gags* *shudders* I lived near Houston, then to Dallas, I cant decide which is worse. I prefer life in Cali.
*was born in Dallas*
They’re both pretty bad.
I had to live in Abilene for four years…talk about a fail!
LOL, I’m a proud Native Texan and I just moved back home from 8 years in California. I’m so glad to be back – CA is definitely not for me. Especially the Bay Area, where I lived.
I’ll say it again, Texas is a whole ‘nother country and California is a whole different planet!
*squeezies to all whether they love or hate TX, especially poor leila*
True.
For most, home is where they spent most of their life when growing up. For me, home is the Pacific Northwest. I’m totally comfortable there. The northeast is… different, somehow. And Texas? No offense, but no thank you. Nice place to visit, but…
I agree that we are worlds apart, DITH, I never did feel the slightest bit comfortable there, or even where I was born in Louisiana. Once I came out west I knew immediately I was home.
*tengallonsqueezes*
That football insanity is also rampant in Chicago. I love orange, and wear blue jeans all the time, so most people think I’m supporting the team. Um…. I’m really really not.
I found out that they drug Bevo, the longhorn at the games to keep him from hurting people. I think that’s soooooo cruel.
I’d say that’s nice.
*sticks tongue out at AE*
*moons him*
*leaves*
@Arthur: You’re just saying that because it makes it easier for you to run up and shag it!
:p
*snork!*
Yeah, you caught me…
You’d shag a boy cow?
Husker fans define football insanity. I can’t tell you how many Husker yard decorations I see around town. And God forbid anything gets done on game days. Bleah.
Ugh, Razorback Red is the color of choice for vehicles here in NW Arkansas. I’m a Florida baby and I understand all too well about college bowl with UF, FSU and UM down there but this place is crazy. I think it’s because they have no pro teams to deflect the hysteria.
Can I just insert here how many times I have to see LSU Geaux Tigers! per year. *sigh*
Hey you are in the north west corner of AR. I was just down around the Fayettville area at the Flint Creek power plant.
The 1+ about that area, Little Debbie stores.
I was in the north west corner of Louisiana, about an hour north of Shreveport.
And OMG little debbie *drools*
Hun, I live in NC…smack in the middle of UNC & Duke war zones. Talk about living dangerously, mention anything collegiate-related during ACC season and a riot will break out!! These freakin’ people are nutz!!!

ROFL!!! They sound like my family but unfortunately, that’s all I’ve got. Our extended family is back home still so it’s just us sisters and our kids and our…ahem, mommy.
My company moved me here from NJ and I work from home. Not a good starting point to make friends. I am currently buying them with cakes. I have been getting all kinds of invites lately to parties because I will bring the cake
It works.
Leila is a vegetarian in TEXAS of all places. It’s practically a requirement to bring a side of beef to most parties there!
Ever since Texas came up, I keep hearing that song “deep in the heart of Texas” and it is making me crazy.
Sowwy
Girl, they’ve lost me already. I found that most of them are nice to your face and they stab you when you aren’t looking. Maybe it’s a corporation ‘thing’ more than it is a Texan ‘thing’ but it does rub you the wrong way. I have 3 girlfriends whom I love dearly. Since we live so far away from each other, we go out to dinner once a month to catch up and hve a drink. So life is good.
I managed veggie diet in TX OK, mind you, my friend there is a bit (a lot) of an old hippy!
My daughter and I don’t have a problem with it. We find pretty much everything we need for our diet. The rest of our household are into meat which makes it kinda weird but we work it out.

(Hey, WordPress told me I was posting too fast and to slow down, LOL.)
Hey, stop posting so fast! The words go by so quickly I can’t read them!
What kind of cakes? Do you deliver to Nebraska?
I make all kinds of cakes, including “risque”. I am working on a new website so I can get them posted. Clickie my nickie for one of my cakes on photobucket.
Pretty! I couldn’t do that to save my life! I can cook though, wanna open a cafe?
A very impressive cake. You sure all those flowers are edible?
Yep, some are made from rice paper and others are from royal icing.
Prince Harry wanked on your cake?!?
What a wanker!
Ah! Photobucket. One site my employer hasn’t yet blocked.
GIRL!! That’s gorgeous. How do you do that wavy thingie you did?
That’s a beautiful cake!
I Like the bed cake. Very entertaining!
*TackleSqueezesJules*
*plays with him*
*leaves him laying on the bed*
*click*
That’s the Leila I know.
Love um and leave them wanting more.
I looked at your cakes. I really like the naughty ones, like the bed and hot tub. I really like your use of Pirouette Rolled Wafer Cookies (to see what that is, clickie) and Twix around the cakes.
It’s almost like a diary in cake! Now that’s journaling I could get behind! Very inspiring.
Those are beautiful, Ry! I especially like the hot tub ones.
I want to learn to be a cake decorator someday. For now, the closest I get is checking the cakewrecks site every day.
Beautiful Ry!! I can bake, but total fail @ decorating…lol. Hat’s off to you!
I’ll be your friend.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaw!!!!
{{{{{{{{{{{The Moomin}}}}}}}}}}}}}}

Well done. I hope you’re proud of yourself.
I am.

*chocolatestrawberry SQUEEZE*
Hey, we make a delicious combination.
I suddenly feel like you and I should break out in a song and dance of sorts.
Should I get the video camera?

Please see my lawyer.
*sets up video camera*

Aaaand action!
You should add 356 blue M&M’s and make sure they are counted correctly.
It’s okay, I will do some low/ natural lighting pictures.
That is a matter of opinion!
It’s a simple derivative. You divide it by the day of the week and add a pinch of salt.
Oh, I see what I did wrong. I added a teaspoon of cumin.
A teaspoon of … cum?
*writes note to self to NEVER eat what Leila’s been cooking*
O-my.
*walks away quietly*
10cc
* I’m not in lu uv
dont you forget it *
Cumin AE! Cumin!
Hmmm…I guess that doesn’t sound too good either.
*SNORK!*
*SNORK* indeed.
Uh oh! I think I am in trouble. I have a comment that says it is waiting on moderation!
You must have used the word i m a g i n e or a variant of it. Failblog does not like that word.
Wow, I figured it was B i b l e hahahaha
Why would anyone moderate B i b l e hahahaha
*snorkroffle*
only conservative republicans know for sure.
I have no idea why, but my daughter googled B ible School when she was about 14, and was very upset at some of the links that came up – homosexual porn sites!
Can anyone tell me why?
Anyway, the reasons are probably the same.
to me it’s more like a win
Aren’t you the woman that wrote to Bundy every day until he was executed?
wel-mart, rolling back prices, along with children’s heads!
Yes, they also have a chainsaw display in the weight-loss-aids aisle.
Quick way to shed unwanted pounds, inches, or enemies!
Population control? *shudders*
Breed more mass murderers?
Is this a government assisted program? Where do I sign?
I think it’s more like win too.
Oh Jesus!!!!
“And remember, Jesus saves, but George Nelson withdraws!”
Baby face George? Is that you??
DON’T CALL ME BABYFACE!!
*pouts*
It was her!… *points*
WHAT?
Cross-selling win, for sure….now we just need some unsuspecting teenagers…
Seems a WIN to me…
Really? How is that? Please tell us more! This is absolutely the very first time someone says that here!
True story… haunted corn maze near where I live, group of friends walking through talking loudly about how they aren’t scared of anything in the “kiddie corn maze.” At that point, one of the guys working in the maze jumps out from behind a stack of bales of straw with his chainsaw (actual chain removed for saftey, but the motor was running) and yelled. One of the girls in the group screamed at the top of her lungs, turned, and bolted… right into another stack of bales of straw. The guy with the saw started laughing so hard he was bent double and dropped the chainsaw. The girl then proceeded to get up, and chase the guy through the rest of the maze brandishing his saw and trying to beat him with it.
Thanks for sharing, JayDubbya. It wasn’t really all that interesting, but I appreciate your use of correct punctuation.
7/10 for punctuation (used too many …)
0.00000ELEBENTY!1/10 for interest
Way to welcome the newbies, guys!
I thought it was entertaining.
:p
Wait, how else do you want us to lure…erm, pull them in. We gotta be ourselves, no?
I agree, we have to be Leila to lure people in.
Oooooh, where did the ’says:’ come from?
LOL!!
Can I press your button?
Yep; might not want to disclose location of this Wally…pissed newbie on rampage would know exactly where to shop for all their revenge needs..
(oooh! PNOR…Pissed Newbie On Rampage…lol)
I thought it funny.
*squeeze*
lol costume win
Instead of fail, I’d say convenient.
That’s Great! Halloween Win!
Might as well protect… your identity.
fail??? thats a win if u ask me…
Dear FAILfriends –
Due to circumstances, I can’t play on FAILblog anymore. I didn’t want to just disappear and have people think I was hit by a low flying plane or anything, so I’m posting this.
It’s been a lot of fun – I love ya all, and I wish you all the best!
- WhoaNellie
*Cries*
Don’t cry custard fairy..
You mean…never?!? That’s horrible! I hope that changes soon! We’ll wait for you.
*Specialsuphasqueeze*
Oh shit! That just ruined my freakin’ day! WN — please play at night or whenever you can. We will miss you so much!
*cries*
I just saw this and I have to say that’s really, really bad news. We are the poorer for the loss.
*squeezies*
God, you guys — I’m seriously choked-up over this. Is this what it’s like to lose a Fail Friend? DO NOT WANT!
DO NOT WANT either.
And this is why I add people to my myspace page, even if I never look at it.
WN, seriously you were always one of my favorites. Much squeezes, and hopefully you aren’t gone forever.
*is reminded to create account on Facebook*
Doh!
Not on MySpace?
Split personality?
Go on then, if you’re offering.
*splits into Dr. Arthur and Mr. Eld*
There. Happy now?
TOO MANY ANKLES!
*panics and runs off*
*tries to chase The Moomin*
*fails to coordinate four legs*
*falls*
*has both* I prefer facebook though…
Oooh, so you swing both ways?
I’m facebook only, and that has been keeping me way too busy already. The only reason I would join MySpace is Arthur, but I still hold out hope that we can lure him over to Facebook!!
*lures* Seriously. Arthur, it would make our lives much easier.
I have some issues with Facebook, sorry. One of those is that it apparently already knows me – when I created an account under my AE-alias it immediately offered me three people to add as friends. I actually did know all of these three – in real life. Kinda scary, dontcha think?
It is scary! It’s like they are watching.
*glances to the right and left*
I don’t like MySpace. I deleted mine a few months ago because IMO it’s too busy and crazy.
So, um … I really do not like talking to myself. Some may thing I’ve lost my marbles.
I think I saw some marbles behind the couch…
Oh thank you.
*goes to collect marbles and sneak a ‘k’ and remove the ‘g’ while no one is looking*
WTF? What circumstances? It’s not fair. AAAAAAAAARGH!!!!! That’s so shitty!!!!
Folks, it’s OK – stuff just came up that prevents me being here. But thank you all for the sentiment
I really have enjoyed FAILblog a lot, and there are a lot of very talented, funny, and sharp people here. I’ve had a great time
And thank you for caring so much – you kinda blew me away here.
SQUEEEEEEEZES all around!
It’s NOT okay – unless you promise to show up whenever possible! And tell those circumstances they SUCK!!! GRRRR!
Yeah! What AE said.
*SqueezesWN and doesn’t let go*
I hope it wasn’t something Mookie said.
Wow! Terrible news, you’ll be missed. Take care of yourself, I hope you can come back at some point.
And yeah! What AE said!
Wait, I come back in time to have to say goodbye to one of my favs?
Sadly, the fail community has high turnover.
BTW, it’s nice to have you back, Ry.
Awww and Mookie always said you didn’t like me. Thank you!
What?! Hm. It’s weird in the failblogosphere, because failure to reply to a person’s posts frequently can be misconstrued as dislike.
I blame everything on Mookie. She is too busy getting her hoohoo taken care of to notice.
What is she doing exactly?
You want a picture? $9.99 a month unlimited access.
What?!
I’ll still blame you Arthur. *squeeze*
Whew! I was worried for a minute.
*squeeze*
I don’t always catch comments that were posted in a timely manner. If I don’t reply to something, it’s just an oversight. Or, I’ll just poke or molest you in the latest posted fail to acknowledge your existence.
We’ll be here if you pop back.
*squeeze*
*SQUEEZE*
Make a facebook page and add us, so we can keep in touch, k?
I just found out about the sad news, and I’m vitrually crying. WN, you were one of the first to welcome me here, and I always look forward to your posts, among others.
RMA, my friend!
(P.S.: You can tell me the truth – it’s Arthur’s fault, isn’t it?)
You’ll be missed. A lot. Try to pop by in the evenings at least?
I’m glad you at least said goodbye. I hate having people simply disappear.
*special squeeze*
*parting squeezes and a shot of Cabo for WN*
Take care, WhoaNellie. I hope we can hear from you again, on occasion.
Darnit! I missed his goodbye! *pouts*
*hopes along with the others that WN can make it back from time to time*
*sends goodbye squeezes his way*
Gah! It’s true.
A little Byron for WhoaNellie.
Fare thee well! and if for ever,
Still for ever, fare thee well.
Byeeee WN… you will be sorely missed…
Noooo but I understand. If we can help let us know ok.
Life is made up of change. Perhaps your life will change so that you can come back to us. Until then fare well our friend.
Take care WN. You will be missed ton.
*super squeeze*
WhoaNellie!! Come. Sit. STAY!!!
One stop shopping for psychos! Lol.
Hey, that’s not a nice thing to say about FailPeeps! The people on here are just. . .eccentric.
Oh! You meant the Product Placement Fail! Nevermind.
Off-topic, but does anyone know how long the backlog of submissions usually is? I submitted something a week and a half or so ago and still haven’t seen it on the vote page. I thought it was funny…
Most submissions don’t make the cut. Don’t take it personally!
Seriously? But then what is the vote page for? Especially since I sometimes see the same thing posted multiple times if it got voted down the first time…
I’d accept that people voted down my submission if they at least got a chance to vote on it!
Did you include the picture of yourself that is required? If it didnt accompany the fail, it is automatically sent to the trash folder. Sorry.
You forgot to mention that it has to be a nude picture.
It’s in the fine print, I shouldn’t have to say it. If they didn’t notice the pic requirement, they are definitely not going to make sure it is nude.
Aw crap! I had a shirt on in my pic submission! That explains it.
And I thought a free swinging dong is enough!
I think I am a 5 year old boy. I laugh every time I hear dong.
*laughs too*
But it’s a Wal-Mart, what do you expect?
Why you gotta be hatin’ on Wal*Mart?
so you can scare birds as lumberjack
♪I’m a lumberjack and I’m ok!♫
♫ I sleep all night and I work all day! ♫
You get alot more candy when your chainsaw is real…
This is NOT a Fail. 100% WIN
Thats what she said sarcasticly
What’s with fails these days? This is a win. Not a fail. FAIL BLOG FAIL!
Even Jason needs somewhere to put his pencils.
Trick or treat!
But, he’s got Bud Light……
THIS IS A WIN!!!! they know what the public wants
Should be WIN xD
this is a win.
I think Jason Voorhees from Friday the 13th must have been there, maybe even Leatherface from Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
Chainsaws? Halloween masks? AND it’s near the children’s Miley Cyrus backpacks? At this point, all I can say is “Saint Jude, thank you for favors granted!” Scaring little annoying children is a win any day, especially if they’re Twihards or Hannah Montana freaks or both.
OMG, Grell cosplay time. (Grell is an insane, gay, shinigami with a chainsaw.)
its anather way to get your slasher products at decently low prices
Seems like a win to me
Totally a win!
I feel many times your fails are wins. What’s the fail here? Chain psicho makes a costume. A fail would be mask, next to chainsaw, next to GAS.
well i got to say it dose go perfect for accessories soo you cant say this one is a totall fail give or take the season of hey f*^*#% imma by a mask and a god dam chain saw and f$#% yah kiddies up with it but maybe thats what a physco would think or anyone who watches reads a lotta thrillers
looks more like a win for aspiring psycho-killers ^_^
i dig the KISS mask on the bottom acutally bought that mask
it says “next to back to school”
awesome
no way this is a fail, it’s a total WIN. I can see hockey masks right there, how can you go wrong with that?
sorry but i have to say thats a definite win in my book
haha that recalls me to “texas chainsaw massacre”
ooooh really chainsaw for jason that epic win oh wait… this is madness?
The only fail on this is saying it’s next to school supplies! Did some school somewhere include Halloween masks in its uniform code?
id say thats a product placement win. holoween slachers choose the chainsaw for there weapon of choice 9 times out of 10
How is this a fail? i want to be a sadistic serial killer for halloween and this is helping by making my trip to walmart much shorter and thus more enjoable
Had a guy get on the bus yesterday with red smeared all over his shirt carrying an oversized knife and wearing a hockey mask… I really hope he was going to a halloween party…
aw sweet! dad, can i have one, please please please
Muhahahahahaha nice 1 =)
Add my vote to the not-a-fail side.
Unless those 400+ comments are all votes for either fail or not-a-fail rather than spam. 400+ posts this fast couldn’t POSSIBLY be spam, right?
WINNAR!
EPIC
Well, atleast it’s easier for serial killers to buy their tools!
OK. Has anyone actually said it??
How, pray tell, is this a fail. Looks like a (unintentional) win to me.
Wow. This is about as good as putting self motivation books, next to guns.
I can see it now:
“Excuse me, sir, could you show me to the serial killer materials isle?”
“It’s two isles down to the left”
Our halloween masks we’re right by huge knives.
Not fail.
EPIC WIN.
notice how the red sign in the background says, “eatable”. thats a fail in it’s own right XD
That should be a WIN….lol
That should be a WIN[2]
this is a win, take one poulan pro and a jason mask and it will be epic
I see this is where Jack the ripper got his props from
