FIRST!
POSTING FAIL ON FAILBLOG IS NOT A GOOD IDEA
Also, jumping into a frozen lake with a LARGE ASS is not a good idea either!
this video is also on failblog
This clip is awesome…ouch!
…largesse?…naw…naw…I don’ use no GAY words, Holmes…
what is “dui fine”?
Driving while Under the Influence (of alcohol, or other mind-addling substances).
Are you sure that it is not Damaging Umbrellas Intentionally?
Deranged Unicycle Incidents?
Domination of Urinated Illiterates.
Deviant Underwear is Interesting?
Dancing Undressed and Inebriated.
Dude Ur Ignorant
Daft Uninitiated Improbabilities
*remembers New Years Eve after getting back home*
…Judy…judyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudyjudy…
…you know…when you go back to the library an’ they say the DVD’s like all late an’ sh1t an’ it’s like a doller…it’s the decibel system or sumthin’…
DUI stands for Driving While Intoxicated. I work in a Courthouse and you would be suprised at how many people come in to pay fines with alcohol on their breath! And how did they get here? They drove. Dumb.
…HEY BABY!…You wanna frisk me or sumthin’?…
…HEY! HEY!…I GOT A SUMMUNS!!…
D.U.I. = Driving Under the Influence
D.W.I. = Driving While Intoxicated
Not a big difference to the eye, but a huge difference to the wallet. Are you sure you work in a Courthouse?
lol
BREAST!
Where?
About 2 fails ago, i can’t get it out of my head
I need to stop using Listerine.
..with that whiskey chaser.
And you know if they had to post a sign about it someone already did it….. lmao
Probably more than one someone…
The world is a sad place.. I just looked at my deoderant and read the following line “Avoid spraying in eyes”
Believe me, these alcohol programs encounter a lot of that sort of thing! ::don’t ask me how I know that::
there is always a reason for such signs: retarted people
I hate retarted people, they make my face twist up. When the wind changes, it’s hard to get it back to normal.
the only thing worse than retarted people are people who feel obligated to retort to spelling mistakes. PHAIL!
there is not much diffrence between “d” and “t” …
ant i’m glat dhad dhere r such wise guys on phailblog
There is not much difference between irony and sarcasm.
You can find even more wise people on a University, if you are in need of them.
i’m pretty sure there r also wise people in jail, at least wannabes
…WHUT?!…WHUT?!…YOU SAY SOMTHIN’?!…
what about cynicism, is it much diffrent?
Good thing you are here to tell us what is bad and what is worse.
everybody has to do his job
it was not me starting complaining about spelling, so i don’t feel appealed. and i never use caps on the internet, caps just make no sense. u know english is not the mother tongue of all people in the world? i don’t care if there r spelling mistakes, it’s all about the sense!

I thought he was talking about somebody who divorced his whore wife and married another one.
Oh, the irony.
…*PUNCH*…*KICK*…*WHEEZE*…
Gin gin gin gin gin gin grin.
I think someone’s in the spirit.
…*DANCE*…*PAUSE*…
No, bourbon. Only limp-wristed f**s drink gin in Kentucky. And given that Shelbyville is about 30 miles east of Louisville, ground zero of the state’s liquor industry, it isn’t surprising that people would be drunk while paying their DUI fines.
There are two kinds of counties in Kentucky, dry ones where you have to drive for awhile to find a wet county in which to buy your liquor, and wet ones (like Jefferson County, of which Louisville was the county seat before it just ate the whole damn thing), which are so wet, you can buy Jim Beam at the grocery store.
damn that is real wet man buying jim beam @ grocery store,good thing I live in a progressive place
Seventh!!!
Courthouse win; drunk drivers fail.
Sounds to me like a courthouse win, frankly.
…CMON’ CRACKUH!!!…*PUNCH*…
…*EXIT*…
why is it not a good idea? You could always walk to the office to pay the fine… drunk as a skunk…
I don’t understand, either. What are they going to do to you? They could charge you with public drunkenness, but I’m not sure having “alcohol on your breath” is enough for that. The worst that could happen, I suppose, is they could have an officer follow you out and see if you’re driving? It’s not illegal to drink again just because you’ve had a DUI.
Potentially, they could hold you in contempt and throw your ass in jail, slap you with a bunch of community service and a big fine.
The sign says “not a good idea”, not “illegal”. There are plenty of perfectly legal, completely bad ideas to choose from if you were so inclined.
If you’re on probation for a DUI, you’re not allowed to drink. The court can order that you get randomly tested, or make you wear an ankle bracelet that will report you if you drink, or (in the more extreme cases), force you to take a drug that will make you very, very ill if you drink.
*sigh*
It is actually just dependant on state laws. Where I live, for a first offense DUI, you would simply have a revocation of your license and unsupervised probation. On the other hand in Iowa, where I got my OWI (operating a vehicle while intoxicated), I had to serve jail time in addition to unsupervised probation. I am, however, still allowed to drink as I please, though I cannot drive as my license has been revoked.
Or dependant on federal laws, too, I suppose.
Yes, and a number of them are in the Darwin Awards.
Personally, I think this is a WIN.
If you are sentenced to probation, as I was for my DUI, it is illegal to drink. But you’d be surprised how many of my colleagues show up to court, community service, drug and alcohol counseling, etc. after drinking alcohol. This is actually really common.
For some repeat offenders, it IS part of their probation to remain sober.
*cough* how do I know that?
In Soviet Russia, the fine pays you
why not??
…*SCREEEEEEEE-EEEE-EEEEEECH*…*VROOOOOM*…
The judge is a recovering alcoholic and will probably try to rape you
Or go to the bar with you, (lawyer joke in there some where).
I’m duing fine.
You a lawyer?
That’s another fine mess dui’ve gotten me into.
This is a win for the courthouse. It’s only a fail for the alcoholic loser who would come in drunk to pay their fine.
A
Why? At this point wouldn’t you have your license revoked, and thusly be either driven by someone else or using public transportation or taking a cab?
Please don’t cloud the issue with logic.
Because DUI or not, they can still arrest you for public intoxication. Especially since it’s usually illegal to have any type of alcohol or drugs around a government building.
Can one have alcohol on the breath without being intoxicated?
Of course, but every US state that I am aware of has a zero tolerance policy for even a drop. It’s the same kind of crap as many other laws and loopholes they have. Another is that you can be ticketed for having an open container if you have a 6-pack or 12 pack container that is missing a beer. The container can then be considered “open” in the vehicle. (Unless it’s in the trunk. Why do you think they say to never look in the trunk? You can put anything back there and they need a warrant or very good reason to open it.)
Too true, I got busted when I had a 6 pack with three beers in it. It was in my back seat because I have Subs in my trunk. Cop was very happy to hand me that ticket. The beer was from two nights before and it was 10 in the morning. Oink oink

Well, I guess it’d be OK if you didn’t drive to drop off the fine.

okey thank you!
42nd!
Also, a DUI summons is not an acceptable form of identification when attempting to buy liquor.
test 2
This is a total win–glad to see somebody in a courthouse has a sense of humor.
I like it. Sounds like the clerk was fed up with one too many sots. One does wonder whether Shelbyville is a “dry” town.
the city of Shelbyville is wet, the county is dry.
ORLY NAO?
it was mouthwash
They would need that sign in Shelbyville.
SPRINGFIELD RULES!
Was this picture taken in New Mexico?
Caption says Kentucky, but as a former resident of Santa Fe, I could completely buy that.
:sing:
This seems like a prime candidate for passive agressive notes.(cron)
Wouldn’t this be more of a win?? I mean, people ~obviously~ do that a lot, and I would imagine to get to the station, most people would have to drive…..so if they’re driving after drinking, in order to pay a fine for already driving while drinking…..
>[b]poopoo[/b]<
I agree that it is an WIN for the humor of the staff
FAIL because they actually had to post it!
Personally, I was NOT there for a DUI related incident
agreed.
