I also have a king size Tempur-Pedic for me and my wife. I will not buy another type of bed ever again. The only problem is, now I can’t stand hotel beds.

China’s “One Child” Policy is enforced by giving each baby a toy baseball bat, and requiring at least 2 hours of swinging in proximity to daddy’s crotch per day.
The repeated whacking of men’s testicles and flying/hurtling into immovable objects isn’t that funny, imo. I prefer humor that requires a bit of thinking.
Heck, what you find funny I may not, so laugh all you want. I just find myself attracted to dry senses of humor. AFV was too blatant, hit-me-over-the-head funny.
That’s why I *heart* Youtube. I can catch shows that normally I wouldn’t have access to, such as Mock the Week, Have I Got News For You, and Quite Interesting, to name a few.
I agree, MtW is a bit *meh* now that Frankie’s gone. But I figure I’ll give it a season, at least, to sort the kinks out from the new format. Would love to see David Mitchell as a regular, though.
I’ve watched some of Frankie’s stand-up, as well as his appearances on other shows, and he is consistently funny. My one complaint, and it’s a small one, is he recycles the same material from show to show and stand up gigs. Other than that, he’s one of my faves!
The Great Lab Monkey - Hiding under a bandana says:
May you live a long life
Full of gladness and health,
With a pocket full of gold
As the least of your wealth.
May the dreams you hold dearest,
Be those which come true,
The kindness you spread,
Keep returning to you.
Dunno whether you were able to see it, but whenever the Fail Peeps reminisce about who hasn’t been seen on the blog in a long time, your name is almost always mentioned in the list…
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!! May you have a wonderful this and a beautiful that and a sparkly thingie and a rainbow-filled affair and a chocolate covered everything.
To be or not to be – that is the question:

No need for the bukkit! You’re just a wee bit under the influence of what must be a very, very fine vintage. Dropping a be here and there is to be expected.
*hops in from neighbouring thread*
*temporarily abandons lurking state to congratulate the much admired Dragon*
Happy birthday, Dragonwriter!
*leaves a yummy Sacher birthday cake on the table*
*resumes lurking state*
Ooh, looks like I’m just in time!
*slides into cuddle puddle*
Oh, cabana boy, I’d like a classic margarita please.
*squeezes peeps*
*extra special squeezes for the Birthday Dragon*
*makes chicken parmigiana with penne pasta, extra juict chicken peices, tomato sauce, and just the right amount of spices*
I can’t make many things, but what I do make is pretty good.
Oo that sounds good! I’d already decided tonight was Italian night, but now I think I’ll switch up what I was going to make (something alfredo-y) and go for home made meatballs and spaghetti sauce with chunky veg and penne. Best part of the day, imo, is going home and making messes in the kitchen!
Me too! Tonight it’s spice-rubbed chicken breast in a salad of mixed baby greens, walnuts, and granny smith apple! With balsamic vinegar and olive oil, and parmesan!!! Spicy, sweet, and a bit tart!
*snicker* I think you’ll find, once I start posting more, that while on paper I seem to be the stereotypical woman (I love to cook and iron [I know, I'm wierd!] and have a penchant for spikey high heels), I spent most of my childhood summers in the shop with my daddy learning how to use powertools. To this day, sawdust and cut grass are my two most favorite smells.
I remember many a happy Saturday morning spent covered in baking flour, learning how to make pancakes or dumplings or whatever. As long as I cleaned up after myself, my momma didn’t care in the least.
My oldest (11) wants to be a cook when she grows up. I let her help in the kitchen, but I don’t think she’s old enough to be totally on her own for new recipes yet.
Quit asking me to visit your failbooking site! Ive been there, it sucks. If I want to visit it, it can do it without you asking me in all your videos. Enough, it got annoying a LOOOOOOOOOONG time ago.
(I did find become a fan animation funny, the first 500 times)
What day do we usually get that bonus “All Around the Interwebs” post?
Because I just noticed we have a new site in the family. Tweetbaggery. Like Failbooking, but with twitter.
Dear FAIL Blog, please stop putting Failbooking plugs at the end of your videos. We’ve seen them countless times already and we get the picture. Thank you.
On the subject of which, I’d like to apologise to the Admiral. I acted like a bit of a troll, and I regret that now.
However, I would like to take this opportunity to kindly request that you don’t treat me like the child I am, as I am fairly mature for my age and utterly despise being patronised, which is an impression I get from some of your posts towards me.
I respect you, I find you funny and clever, and really don’t enjoy being on the end of your dislike. I would really like to be a part of the FailBlog community, but I feel that with such a well thought of member openly avoiding me, I’ll never feel particularly wanted around here.
Jon, it’s hard to gauge what the right ‘fit’ is here sometimes but when you do, everything will work out.
As a foreigner coming to live in the US I learned that there cliques and those cliques have their own. It’s normal I guess. I like everyone here (except for the trolls of course) and really enjoy ‘playing’ and all the back and forth joking around that goes on.
You play hurt all the time, trying to garner sympathy, but you use this as a position to lash out. Look at your so-called apology up there. Take responsibility for yourself. Don’t find excuses for what you say and how you behave.
I’m fed up with you because several people have tried to get through to you, but you don’t listen. You find it easier to find fault elsewhere than to listen to what you are being told, look inward, and actually try to change. It’s hard, and it doesn’t stop. It’s a lifelong endeavor. If you truly respected and cared what I and others think, you’d make an effort to change. You won’t be welcomed by many here until you do.
~Hey Jon;, where’s the sacrificial lamb? Don’t you know you insulted one the gods of FB?? If you want absolution ewe better come prepared next time. I think I saw one wandering off of LeiLei’s farm. That’d be perfect.”~
Alright folks. We have enough trolls to deal with, let’s not make a big hairy deal about this. I suggest we drop it and move on. We don’t all have to like each other, this isn’t a popularity contest.
Really. If you don’t like each other, stay away from each other. And if you have nothing nice to say, just say nothing at all, and be the better person.
I’d have to agree with Avis on this matter, and the way I see it, things are getting very tensed up. I’m beginning to see parallels with the Cold War here. We need a strong, tightly-knit community to survive. Let’s focus on bashing the trolls.
Oh, and I’m also going to be neutral here. I’m not critisizing anyone’s actions.
Jon, I apologize for losing my temper earlier. You didn’t deserve such an outburst. When I first saw your comment that made requests of me my first reaction was to ignore it. As I thought further, I began contemplating a reply that tried to explain why we weren’t getting along. I knew I didn’t have the time to do this immediately as I had someplace to go. If I was going to reply, it was going to be much later. If I crafted this reply, and I had not yet decided if I would, it was going to be my last effort to find some way for us to communicate. When you saw me commenting and not replying to your first request, you posted another which I took to indicate an impatience on your part. This, unfortunately, got to me, and I lashed out.
No one is ever going to get along with absolutely everybody, so it’s probably just best to avoid those who appear to be avoiding you. Again, my apologies for being such an ass today.
Hey guys. Just a quick question.
I didn’t want to dig myself too deep just doing this.
Do I need permission to wear an I heart (Sorry, I’m not pasting today) bloggy t-shirt. I wanted to wear it in my name.
Sorry, I know it is stupid, but this wouldn’t be the first time I’ve gotten in trouble for something like this. Sorry for longness (Is that a word?).
Happy Landing!
stupid landing, lol, that happens to you when you are a poser

*happy squeezing!!*
How are you on this fine day?
*superHumpdaysqueeziesStarfishy*
Good, good! Nice to see you! (Or, as our beloved coyote says, “Nice to lay eyes on your avatar, as well.”)
How goes work?
yep, say that and walk away. that’s how friendship works
Have a nice trip! See you next fall.
gots to represent!
(from the ground)
That was a bad idea.
Are you talking about their sense of fashion?
Not so much…
*squeeze*
*squeeze*
How is the little birdie doing today?
Just fine! You?
I have yet to see the sun but I already deemed it a great day!
It’s pretty cloudy here too. But! It is not freezing effing cold outside!! Yay Spring!!!
*does a happy Spring dance*
I agree springs are a wonderful inventions, what would beds be like without them?
Futons.
On legs and with a headboard.
Some futons come with frames! In my teen years I had a futon minus the frame. It was… less than comfortable.
My casket is a Tempur-Pedic and I have to say not only does it totally lack springs but is the most comfortable casket I’ve ever rotted in.
*snoffle*
Tempur-Pedic, huh? Must’ve cost you an arm and a leg…
I also have a king size Tempur-Pedic for me and my wife. I will not buy another type of bed ever again. The only problem is, now I can’t stand hotel beds.
Yeah it did LGB, but I won’t say whose.
60 degrees and sunny. I went outside and ate lunch in the sun.
What was for lunch?
Speaking of lunch… *looks at the time*
V8
I know – isn’t it glorious?!?!?
I have been waiting all winter.
I never saw that coming.
They just never learn do they?
If they did, then what would we talk about?
*HappyHumpDaysqueezies*
Nope
This is an argument in favor of stupid people not breeding.
This is also a highly effective way to stop stupid people breeding.
I wish it were more effective!
China’s “One Child” Policy is enforced by giving each baby a toy baseball bat, and requiring at least 2 hours of swinging in proximity to daddy’s crotch per day.
America’s Funniest Home Videos has been celebrating that very policy, but it doesn’t seem to be stopping procreation of stupid people. *sigh*
That show contributed to the “dumbing down” of America.
Agreed.
How? I always thought it was funny. *feels guilty*
The repeated whacking of men’s testicles and flying/hurtling into immovable objects isn’t that funny, imo. I prefer humor that requires a bit of thinking.
I will remember not to laugh.
Heck, what you find funny I may not, so laugh all you want.
I just find myself attracted to dry senses of humor. AFV was too blatant, hit-me-over-the-head funny.
It got old a little too fast for me. There is not much I find interesting on TV.
That’s why I *heart* Youtube. I can catch shows that normally I wouldn’t have access to, such as Mock the Week, Have I Got News For You, and Quite Interesting, to name a few.
British Quizcoms! Hurrah, your taste in funny is impeccable.
I thought Mock the Week lost its “punch” after Frankie Boyle was booted off. Nevertheless, it is still hilarious.
I agree, MtW is a bit *meh* now that Frankie’s gone. But I figure I’ll give it a season, at least, to sort the kinks out from the new format. Would love to see David Mitchell as a regular, though.
I have watched some of the shows with Frankie. Let me just say I couldn’t watch…I was laughing so hard the tears clouded my vision.
I’ve watched some of Frankie’s stand-up, as well as his appearances on other shows, and he is consistently funny. My one complaint, and it’s a small one, is he recycles the same material from show to show and stand up gigs. Other than that, he’s one of my faves!
It changed my name! That was weird…
Were you still signed in to Gravatar? That’ll do it every time.
This is why I regard Jackass as screamingly bad.
It’s super effective!
Too bad it isn’t, but couldn’t resist saying it anyway.
Was he died?
*Kif Kroker style sigh*
Looking a little green there, ZA…
This would have been much funnier if he had been on an overpass.
Ice covered overpass.
Over the Taos Gorge maybe.
don’t forget some spikes below
With a snow mountain, complete with shopping cart peak.
Using nunchucks.
Doing a back flip.
On a trampoline.
While eating a grilled cheese sandwich.
What? I can’t say a turkey sammich. I am vegetarian. *bats eyes*
I don’t know. Grilled cheese sandwich plus trampoline sounds like a recipe for disaster.
Yes it does!
Look, it’s not. I can demonstrate if you wish…
*gets camera*
Um.. no, thanks, but I think Rooster would be a little upset.
Yeah, internet is slow anyway.
What does it have to do with Rooster?
I’m going to send you an FB2 message, hold on.
Leila, did you really forget what a “grilled cheese sandwich” is?
*hums to hold music*
♪ I ♥ you
♪ you ♥ me
NOW do you see why Rooster might be a bit upset!?
I do. I do…I responded.
One thing I gotta say is —– synchronized trampoline jumping while eating GCS.
*snork*
Read and replied back too!
Gracie, I know what GCS is. Why everyone so worried?
Just the thought that something might get bitten off, Leila.
… Bad 1mages.
… Really, really bad.
Carrying a valuable/delicate item.
And the Benny Hill song “Yakety Sax” playing.
*nods knowingly at Judy*
Heee!
How’s your birthday going, sweets?
Great, thankee!!
Though it will take me WEEKS to get through all the dragon cakes people have sent me.
Happiest B-day to you, DW!
Thanks, my favorite zombie person!!
Happy Birthday Dragon!

Do you have anything un-alcoholic? Just because I’m under age doesn’t mean I don’t like to party…

I’ve some sparkling non-alcoholic cider for the young’uns.
Graci!
Yay!
*Stumbles about*
Boring Qwaz would never do that.
Did somebody call?
No offense to you Gracie, but “graci” means “thank you” in Italian (or something like that).
Ah, was wondering what that meant. Though I’ve always seen it spelled “grazie”
Eh. I read it in a book. Blame the authors.
Psst, you spelt ‘Arthurs’ wrong
Haven’t you always wanted a Monkey?
Hey! I’m not that kind of Monkey!! I’ve heard about Judy and the ET finger….

*snicker* I think you’ll find, once I start posting more, that while on paper I seem to be the stereotypical woman (I love to cook and iron [I know, I'm wierd!] and have a penchant for spikey high heels), I spent most of my childhood summers in the shop with my daddy learning how to use powertools. To this day, sawdust and cut grass are my two most favorite smells.
Love the smell of cut grass! The process to get there?
Not so much.
*drools* Can I come over to your house for supper one night? That sounds oh so yummy!
Do you want the spice rub recipe?
Yes, please!
*happy dance*
Find me on FaceBook and I’ll send it to you!!!
Ooh, spice rubs!
I tried Senegalese style spiced fish once, though it was a marked failure.
Supermarket fish just don’t fry like the ones on cooking programs.
Sweet! Hm…how will I know it’s you when I find you?
Hint below, also if you and DW are friends, I’ll show up as having a mutual friend.
I’m still awaiting confirmation from DW, if it’s the right person. So far, I haven’t found you.
Still looking, though!
Hmmmm… DW is online at FB2, so you should get that confirmation soon!
Unless I sent to the wrong DW…but I don’t think I did. I’ve been to DW’s blog before (very much enjoyed it, btw!) and I recognise the name.
I am the only Avis LittleBird that shows up when I do a search for the name. If that helps.
Are you a fan of the Failblog page on FB? I am, and can post a msg there.
Success!! Found, and FR sent
Yes I am!
There are several Failblog pages on FB2..
Several hundred.
I just sent you the recipe!!
I got it, printed it out, sent a reply.
Yay! I has a new recipe!! *does another happy dance*
*quickly exorcises LoLspeak demons*
Friend request accepted!
Yay! Y’all are all so welcoming, makes me wonder why I waited so long to speak up.
Thanks for turning this into a great day!
Send me a friend recommendation, Dragon.
Hint, I’m wearing pink glasses in my profile pic.
I myself love to cook, but it often leads to messes, so my mom has all but forbidden me near the stove. Just four and a half years left.
*sigh*
How does one learn to cook if one can’t make messes in the kitchen?!
FINALLY! Someone that understands!
*thanks Jebus*
I remember many a happy Saturday morning spent covered in baking flour, learning how to make pancakes or dumplings or whatever. As long as I cleaned up after myself, my momma didn’t care in the least.
My mom likes “her” kitchen to be orderly at all times, and I’m a pretty messy person, to say the utmost least.
My oldest (11) wants to be a cook when she grows up. I let her help in the kitchen, but I don’t think she’s old enough to be totally on her own for new recipes yet.
Whee! A cuddly puddly!
*congratulatorydwsqueeze*
*cuddlesqueeze!*
This is also a friendship fail… that kid gets the kcuf out of the way.
The friendship fail is allowing your friend to try this in the first place.
Quit asking me to visit your failbooking site! Ive been there, it sucks. If I want to visit it, it can do it without you asking me in all your videos. Enough, it got annoying a LOOOOOOOOOONG time ago.
(I did find become a fan animation funny, the first 500 times)
Seconded!
See my comment down there. vv
May have had better luck if his shoes were tied correctly… LOL
*recites a quotation from something I don’t remember*
“…and yet another has fallen.”
Welcome to the boarding school at Great Falls.
What day do we usually get that bonus “All Around the Interwebs” post?
Because I just noticed we have a new site in the family. Tweetbaggery. Like Failbooking, but with twitter.
Dear FAIL Blog, please stop putting Failbooking plugs at the end of your videos. We’ve seen them countless times already and we get the picture. Thank you.
See the thing at the bottom of the page that says, “contact us?” Click on that and then tell them. It’ll get to them faster that way.
Then they’ll change it to promote Tweetbaggery.
Gracie – Have I missed the story behind your new shirt?
It all started in Burglar fail.
On the subject of which, I’d like to apologise to the Admiral. I acted like a bit of a troll, and I regret that now.
However, I would like to take this opportunity to kindly request that you don’t treat me like the child I am, as I am fairly mature for my age and utterly despise being patronised, which is an impression I get from some of your posts towards me.
I respect you, I find you funny and clever, and really don’t enjoy being on the end of your dislike. I would really like to be a part of the FailBlog community, but I feel that with such a well thought of member openly avoiding me, I’ll never feel particularly wanted around here.
I’m sure he will forgive you. I would.
This part got deleted for some reason
We want you Jon! You are probably my favorite person on Failblog!
*SorryForTheFightSqueeze*
Jon, it’s hard to gauge what the right ‘fit’ is here sometimes but when you do, everything will work out.
As a foreigner coming to live in the US I learned that there cliques and those cliques have their own. It’s normal I guess. I like everyone here (except for the trolls of course) and really enjoy ‘playing’ and all the back and forth joking around that goes on.
Thanks, Leila. LGB and I have been having a very similar conversation on FB2
AA, whether you forgive me or not is your choice now, not mine.
What is FB2? (I’m not really good at the whole “news” thing)
FaceBook.
Explains. SO. Much.
[Dilly] Is that a threat? [/Dilly]
Worst. Apology. Evar.
You don’t want to hear what I have to say…you just want to be absolved.
Ok then.
You play hurt all the time, trying to garner sympathy, but you use this as a position to lash out. Look at your so-called apology up there. Take responsibility for yourself. Don’t find excuses for what you say and how you behave.
I’m fed up with you because several people have tried to get through to you, but you don’t listen. You find it easier to find fault elsewhere than to listen to what you are being told, look inward, and actually try to change. It’s hard, and it doesn’t stop. It’s a lifelong endeavor. If you truly respected and cared what I and others think, you’d make an effort to change. You won’t be welcomed by many here until you do.
~Hey Jon;, where’s the sacrificial lamb? Don’t you know you insulted one the gods of FB?? If you want absolution ewe better come prepared next time. I think I saw one wandering off of LeiLei’s farm. That’d be perfect.”~
You’re very much mistaken about me feeling insulted, I’m just fed up.
Either way, you’re taking it too seriously.
It would have been a much better idea to just accept the apology that Jon; shouldn’t have even given you in the first place.
Unfortunately, I can’t stay and chat. I do take this community very seriously.
No problem, I don’t anything else needs to be said.
*welcomes Jon; along with many others*
~Critiquing a person’s humble apology is certainly one way to garner respect.~
Alright folks. We have enough trolls to deal with, let’s not make a big hairy deal about this. I suggest we drop it and move on. We don’t all have to like each other, this isn’t a popularity contest.
I would like to take this moment to say that I refuse to take sides in this.
Really. If you don’t like each other, stay away from each other. And if you have nothing nice to say, just say nothing at all, and be the better person.
I’d have to agree with Avis on this matter, and the way I see it, things are getting very tensed up. I’m beginning to see parallels with the Cold War here. We need a strong, tightly-knit community to survive. Let’s focus on bashing the trolls.
Oh, and I’m also going to be neutral here. I’m not critisizing anyone’s actions.
*Rubs forehead*
Friends, come now. Perhaps the proverbial “Chill pill” is required. It’s the blue one, not the red one, to clarify.
um… the blue one does not inspire “chill” in the male of the species… think it has rather the opposite effect
Jon, I apologize for losing my temper earlier. You didn’t deserve such an outburst. When I first saw your comment that made requests of me my first reaction was to ignore it. As I thought further, I began contemplating a reply that tried to explain why we weren’t getting along. I knew I didn’t have the time to do this immediately as I had someplace to go. If I was going to reply, it was going to be much later. If I crafted this reply, and I had not yet decided if I would, it was going to be my last effort to find some way for us to communicate. When you saw me commenting and not replying to your first request, you posted another which I took to indicate an impatience on your part. This, unfortunately, got to me, and I lashed out.
No one is ever going to get along with absolutely everybody, so it’s probably just best to avoid those who appear to be avoiding you. Again, my apologies for being such an ass today.
That’s ok, AA. Some of what you had to say is fair enough, and I appreciate your apology.
what ever happened to survival of the fittest?
He’d plant his face deep in that
He’d plant his face deep in that concrete if he succeed “falling” on that plank of what the hell it supposed to be.
Hey guys. Just a quick question.
I didn’t want to dig myself too deep just doing this.
Do I need permission to wear an I heart (Sorry, I’m not pasting today) bloggy t-shirt. I wanted to wear it in my name.
Sorry, I know it is stupid, but this wouldn’t be the first time I’ve gotten in trouble for something like this. Sorry for longness (Is that a word?).
K@ purveys them, so you may want to send some internets her way.
Other than that, ♥ away!
Thanks Jon! I’ll ask her next time I see her.
Reading past comments this week, I am now extremely grateful that I wasn’t involved in the Burglar fail. Extremely grateful.
It’s a good thing Farmville seems to have swallowed you whole! In that regard at least!
*squeeze*
Not my fault, I swear. *squeezes BFF*
And a strained silence descends on the blog….
Maybe not a good day for me to come back… I’ll check around later.
I’m happy to see you.
*warmsqueeze*
*sneaks in late*
Happy Birthday, DW!
Well what do you know!
*squeeze*
*offers food*
Helps in tense family situations back home.
Mmmmm! Food!!!
*waiting for the chicken to thaw so she can make that salad*
Food and/or power tools…those are usually my answers to just about anything. And Duct Tape counts as a power tool!
Of course it does! Duct Tape can fix anything!
Wrong place for a skateboard stunt!
(Only the official skateboard ramp can take it to the extreme!)
Wow. A skateboarder fell down. How unique, interesting, and unexpected.
durrrr physics
Thats why you never use a cardboard ramp…
Remember kids, grip tape is your friend.
that really cracked me up
or open?
… pero me agarras duro carnal pa q no me caiga jajajajajaja
that is one of the reasons why i never started skateboarding xD
helmet anyone?
looks fake
Hello friends,this is a nice site!
