WOO-HOO!!!!
Avis, was that a first comment???
What do you mean?
This is awkward… You sound like you woo-hoo’d because you were top. Althought that is almost certainly just me who thinks that…
Indeed.
Indubitably.
(In)yes.
wtf? ò.Ó
hola mane, i sell you my daughter for beer n tacos
penis
Didn’t your mother give you one?
Honestly, I don’t care. I have the FB legends replying to me for the first time ever, so I’m happy
Now, your experience is complete.
* snork *
what a loser you are.. LoL, FB Legends! ha!
Why would being first be any big deal?
ask the trolls. They should be arriving soon…
I thought I did.
Here I am, guys! Did I miss much?
You have failed us Troll… you have failed us all…
Mage
You are the Singular Entity, not the plural.
awesome, i just love the trolls…
Thats what I say to my older brother.
I think thats the question many failbloggers have been asking themselves ever since this site started
The big deal abouth being first is that you have the oppertunitie to write something smart and funny which everyone will read because you are the First. However, most people can not meet this pressure, which caused a short circuit in the brain and brings about the only thing they can think is, First !
*Looks around for Nightshayde*
*Doesn’t see her, so slowly pulls an “opportunity” out of purse*
*Slides into place, and quietly leaves with excised “oppertunitie”*
Actually, most tops don’t say woo-hoo. There is usually no need for them to say anything. Bottoms, they make all sorta noises.
I make noise when I’m on top;D
*ahem*
That was a woo-hoo of happiness for a late afternoon fail. Not for the subject of said fail.
Sounds like a first comment to me…
*looks sceptical*
Can you look like someone who has a comment to make about the fail instead?
Why must every comment be about the fail? There are really only so many things one can say. And this one isn’t particularly funny, so there are even fewer things to say about it.
You can say ”Where’s the beef!”
*snork*
Didn’t think about that one!
Ah, the 80’s…
Pst!
Also hope you don’t mind, I left a message in previous post for you. *clicky*
*just looked at message*
Thank you, and it’s true, I wouldn’t erase that time even if I could.
Somehow, this just doesn’t look right.
A bird with her feet firmly on the ground. That’s our Avis.
*Squeeze*
*squeeze*
I’m happy iffn yer happy!
*Bighairsqueeze*
*never, EVER had big hair!*
*squeezes anyway*
I did. Biiiiiiig hair.
(And if you and Marius were on the other FB, you would have seen a pic of it last week!)
I’m working on it! I need a relatively recent photo first. That may take a week or so.
If one needs a photo, recent or otherwise, that seals it. I am never going to the other FB!
No photo required.
One doesn’t need a photo I suppose, but I’m not crazy about the ones I currently have.
The only way that I would be crazy about a picture of me is if it was of someone else.
*shakes head*
Coyote, I’m sure you look MAHVELOUS!!!
Everybody knows that Failfriends are dead sexy. Quite literally, in some cases.
Not I. I have the strangest hair in the litterbox.
I am now under pressure from Farmville people. Resistance seems futile.
I thought resistance was R=V/I.
I thought Resistance was futile.
I thought resistance was….. ohm, I forgot what I was going to say.
picturesque?
No tacos for u sir
Wait, what?
*pokes, before pointing up at the fail again*
READ IT!
Oh, and Yu Yu Hakusho abridged FTW!
That was a sarcastic “wait, what?” Like total disbelief of what I was reading. *sigh* Nevermind.
They used to call that “double take.” Back when people spoke in a language other than macros.
Nice, that’s parenting skills…
Exactly. Good parents ALWAYS get their money.
First well Im glad he called the cops and got busted and I hope the girl is ok
well I thought I was
They should toss him off a high cliff either way.
I remember this story from last year. He’s from a place where it’s considered normal for a father to trade his daughter for goods. She was a teenager. He was REALLY upset to be arrested and have her taken away. Saying it was part of his culture and he should be allowed to do it.
Sounds like one less “culture” we need on this planet. That and the violence committed against pre-teen’s crotches in some countries. …
What kind of “culture” would allow selling your daughter… Does Christianity count?
Next time you’re bored try reading Exodus Chapter 21. God lays out exactly the rules around it.
“When a man sells his daughter as a slave, she will not be freed at the end of six years as the men are. If she does not please the man who bought her, he may allow her to be bought back again. But he is not allowed to sell her to foreigners, since he is the one who broke the contract with her.” Ex 21: 7
What about the New Testament, which establishes a “new covenant” between God and mankind? Where are the references to slavery in it?
Christianity is not a culture! It calls itself a religion…
PROTIP: Christianity ≠ Judaism. Get your religions straight before you criticize them.
Selling offspring into slavery for cash or other prizes is an established and theoretically still legal practice on that Haiti island everyone loves so much these days.
Yes, the town where the guy lives in about 10 miles from me. He’s a Triqui, and in their tribe in Mexico it is custom for this type of thing to go on. What they didn’t mention, however, was that the beer, meat, and money were to be used for the wedding. However, it was wrong of him to try and sell off his daughter at such a young age (the father was mad because the daughter was already living with the guy)
That’s one way to get rid of that illegitimate child…
Just coz her dad sold her for stuffz, dont mean she cant read, yea?
Ok, sorry, I can’t type like that any more…
Can’t read?
(illiterate)
Did you forget to take your meds today, bo?
*squeeze*
You are awesome.
I know that, but … forget it, nevermind. I keep forgetting that logic and reason (among other things) don’t apply to trolls.
Let’s wait and see.
(Pssst…Arthur and Avis…you are FB legends!
)
I thought he was referring to YOU and Arthur!
Because clearly, he has mistaken me for a “firster”.
HAHA so I totally read “firster” without that valuable “r” and no not the one at the end. haha p.s. I wish i was a legend, like legends of the hidden temple! (I’ve been at work waaayyyyy too long)
As opposed to you. Who are you anyway?
My feet are legends.
I am not a legend, I am a myth.
“Myth…? Myth??”
“Yeth?”
A Dragon Myth? Fanthy that. All I have is an old thaw.
I thee your thaw and raithe you a lathe.
For such a sad and disturbing fail, you guys can be incredibly funny.
+100 internets for the Muppet Movie reference.
OOooooo! Fankoo!
*runs to spend internets on something sparkly*
If I clicked on your name and it didn’t work, would it be a mything link?
If that joke gives anyone a headache, take an Asprin.
A headache? That would be a Mythfortune.
I’m nothing if not tired.
*waves*
I’m a nobody.
♪♫ He’s a real nowhere man
sitting in his nowhere land
Making all his nowhere plans
for nobody. ♫♪
I’m merely a shadow of my former self.
Ok, I can do that.
The hanger would’ve been sufficient, but nooooo
You can’t just hang children up in your wardrobe and hope they dissappear like so many socks do!
Big_bo are you high? Because you are on a major reply-fail-spree
And…who hangs up socks in their wardrobes, anyway?
You don’t?
I must confess, I do not. I toss them on the floor next to my boots. :p
I only hang them by the chimney with care, and then only once a year.
Your boots on the floor?! You are rather sloppy, are you not? I put my boots in the fridge where they belong.
Wow you are a disgusting person, the fridge is for the socks, the boots go in the kitchen oven!
*tries to figure out which room besides the kitchen might contain an oven.*
Survey says?
You know it depends on personal preference.
Boots go by the computer so that you can boot up quickly.
You have been accused of having “cold feet” haven’t you?
Well, it’s a serious fail. Life fail, I think.
And I didn’t laugh.
What he did was horrible…but there is still something darkly humorous about it.
The humor is that he called the cops because the results of his illegal act were not what he expected.
Right.
Although I’m sure this idea will not fly, he should have expected the cops to toss him off a tall building.
Yeah. It’s kind of like when a drug addict calls the cops to report his pot stolen.
GJ dad keep it goin
Someday maybe we can all become fathers like him… at least that’s what I aspire to become. Ah, meat!
I think he was asking for a bit to much.
Cash? Sure.
Beer and meat? Over the line.
*snork*
If this is the same story I heard about a few months ago, this was an arranged marriage. The beer and meat were for the wedding banquet. The big problem was the girl was underage, like 14 or something. The parties involved didn’t understand that something commonplace in their home country was illegal in the US.
I think you’re right. I heard that story, too. It puts the weirdness into some context.
Context, my ass. For arranged marriages to *not* be illegal anywhere is an atrocity, tradition be damned. Human rights come first.
Actually, arranged marriages in other countries like India typically fail less and have higher happiness statistics than “love” marriages in the US. It’s because there’s a bigger focus on family in those countries, and they really do know their children well enough to find someone who suits them. You can’t really condemn something that works for a lot of people.
Proletariat 2.0
So he tried to sell her on ebay?
He must have misinterpreted Marx…not the first, not the last…
Cash, beer and meat? Sounds Bavarian to me.
When will people learn that human trafficking is not what ebay is for?
I thought that human trafficking is what crosswalks are for.
Bavarians never exchange meat for beer… just cash. And the key to the loo.
This reminds me of the story of the guy who called the cops because his weed dealer ripped him off. Real genius there.
It was a moral imperative.
Kant argue with that.
It’s a Jungster’s mistake.
I’d say the fundamentals of his morals were a touch Freud about the edges. Then again,
♫We’re only Hume-in’, we’re supposed to make mistakes♫
I aFreud you’re right, ED!
Refresh fail! Freud I was a wee bit late on this one.
That’s logically positive.
Touche’; metaphysics may not be wrong, but what does it mean?
Only Mr. Spock knows for sure.
What, and he didn’t ask for two front row tickets to Bon Jovi while was at it? Boy, did he miss out!
Maybe the guys who got the girl sold her again for said tickets?
So… did he get his meat?
Yes, but it was rendered. And blue.
Yeah, but he didn’t eat it.
Consequently, No Pudding!
The cash is not really the big issue…It’s the beer and meat that got to him.
I thought it was the part where he realized he told the cops he sold his daughter to some people for meat.
What a dumb-ass… get the cash FIRST!
He SOLD his daughter… for BEER!? It’s a good thing he called the police, or perhaps someone else may have had to call, and that would take too much time.
Yeah, but what KIND of beer?
Cheep Mexican beer I’m sad to say.
A good parent puts money first. Then beer/food.
lol, stupid mexicans
Heh heh. I know. Them with their work ethic… and their good food…
And doing the jobs that others don’t want to care for their families…I mean, am I right, Shadow!
Don’t forget about the constantly being polite. What a pain!
Parenting at it’s best.
But, but, Mr. Officer Man, he just seemed so trustworthy.
No fail here.
The trade was for “$16,000 and provide him with 160 cases of beer, 100 cases of soda, 50 cases of Gatorade, two cases of wine, and six cases of meat.” I mean, there could’ve been more meat, but this girl was worth a librarian’s yearly salary!!
I pretty sure she was/is worth plenty more than that.
If he wanted to lose his kids so much, should have just gone to portugal…
ooohhh… how many points does FB award for zinging obscure maddy maccann reference?
This is a good case for justification of the death penalty. Some people truly are just wastes of life. That thing is breathing perfectly good air that the rest of humanity could be using.
What’s wrong with selling your daughter? The bible says it’s okay to do.
Because this doesn’t follow the guidelines the Bible sets for negotiating a fair price.
It’s really not as bad as it sounds. It’s not like the girl was unwilling or going to be a slave or anything. This would just be an ordinary misdemeanor statutory rape if it weren’t for the attention-grabbing “sale” angle.
The only really spectacular fail here is that the father was so completely ignorant of US law as to think it was a good idea to involve the police in this.
Yeah everyone knows girls are more mature at a young age, and girls like maturity in a boyfriend.
So, really, we’re only standing in the way of nature when we think there’s something wrong with older men sleeping with 14 year old girls.
Exactly. It’s not like she was going to marry to some dirty old man or anything, the guy was was only 4 years older.
omg a fellow troll!
Trollin trollin trollin, I’ma justa trollin trollin trollin.
looks like a trollish night tonight. ~Fun~
Slow going tonight.
I just thought of a photo that I could use that would show the inner me. They gave me three pics from my bronchoalveolar lavage today.
That sounds… uncomfortable.
Are they “good” pictures?
I think that they caught my good side.
I didn’t feel a thing. I don’t remember a thing.
In at seven in the freaking AM, out at nine. The parking booth could break a twenty yet so the parking was free.
lol mexican culture
WIN
How much for da girl? would u accept one of my sons as payment?
why need cash when can have meat & beer
I wonder what kind of meat… cause i have a girlfriend and a sister that i’d swap for some good roast beef… and maybe a pack of smokes…
How is this a fail? The guy is just a libertarian practicing his beliefs.
the cash is for the hookers
Well how is he going to buy somone elses 14 year old daughter if he can’t sell his own?
these is even worse
http://www.guzgan.ro/mail/alina.php?code=5rJPbeZ1
Um dude, most of us don’t speak Romanian. But if this is one of those chicks who offer their virginity for a price, then no, it’s not worse.
I suppose he really thought they’d be on his side?
Apparently this type of thing is still common in parts of Mexico. It’s shocking.
It’s disgustingly common in a whole lot of places. Quite a lot of prostitutes (including in the United States!!!) are there because their family sold them as children into slavery.
I watched the video on:
CNN, cnn (dot) com/2009/CRIME/01/13/daughter.for.sale/#cnnSTCVideo
It’s seems $16,000 grand plus some grocery will buy you a 14 yearold.
haha,
Sadly enough up until recently the age of consent in Canada was 14.
14, what’s wrong with that? As the old saying goes, if there’s grass on the field, it’s time to play ball.
I’ve always thought if there’s grass on the field, mow the lawn. But that’s just me.
hold on now, let’s not be too hasty…
what kind of meat are we talking about here?
jonesies- LOL!!
But seriously. If he’s in prison and word gets around WHY he’s in there – he’s gonna be sold for some “meat”. Enjoy your 10″ of irony, sir!
Damnit! after I hit add I realized I should have said Enjoy your 8-12 of irony. No? ah, forget it.
You know this sounds bad until you think about it. Maybe it wasn’t that great of a kid, ill-temperred? disrespectful? Turkish? And maybe the meat was bacon… Maybe it was a lot of bacon.
Would this count as a double fail?
L.A. Laker fan for sure!
This is exactly the kind of things that make me lose more and more faith in humanity.
I mean, I started browsing failblog with an already diminished hope in our species, so most pictures were funny and not wallbangers.
But this… guy was either severely stoned or being a dick and an dumbshit at the very same time.
Either way my bar just lowered even more.
i thought they called this marriage in india
Snookied
This actually happened right here in my little backwoods CA town. *face palm*
