    *points to the sign*

  28. OT: Was I the only one thinking here when I went to the blog today, “Good lord, what in all that is holy have they done to the design?”

  29. ZombieApocalypse - wearing a soiled and blood soaked ~I ♥ Bloggy~ t-shirt says:

    Back in the day years ago when the girls in the office were still drinking coffee, they would make the darkest coffee you’ve ever seen. It would absorb light, you could stand metal spoons up in it, plastic spoons dissolved in it and even Darth Vader thought it was too dark. Sometimes one of the guys would make coffee, but they wouldn’t make it nearly as strong, so a running joke was started around here – “girly coffee” was strong enough to make you grow hair in your nether regions and “manly coffee” was glorified tea.

    More recently one of the guys here started making it even weaker, so I coined the term “infantile coffee”. This could be bottle fed to infants before bedtime without concern.

    This morning I showed up and poured a cup of hot water. Blasted stuff was barely even brown, I’ve seen green teas with more color. I don’t know what to call it, except garbage. I threw it down the drain (which seemed to grimace at me) and made a nice “girly” pot.

    Now it’s time to drown in it. Please feel free to LOL all you want.

    *pours a collection of tubs full of light absorbing, black, ebil “girly” coffee*
    *gestures invitingly*
    *safety*
    *falls face first into one tub*
    *lays there, not moving*

    • Marius says:

      I feel for you ZA. One of the many things my wife does for me is grinding fresh coffee every morning and making a pot of “mud”. She knows I come from a long line of mudders.

    That’s a lot better

  32. lindsy says:

    I’m sure this sign was made before the “LOL” and texting craze. Meant to represent a person drowning as in stick figure, still funny though

  33. pootpoot says:

    You can’t tell me this wasn’t supposed to look funny.

  34. Rasta says:

    photoshop

  35. Tetzin says:

    It looks like “lol” to me. Does that mean start laughing out loud when someone is drowning?

  36. Dragonfang says:

    It’s actually a warning for the Baconator. When released into the wild, they grow to huge sizes and attack swimmers, causing them to become fat and sink. The beach officials don’t want to cause a panic.

  37. Chelles says:

    so they want us to call 911 if we see someone happy about bacon?
    …………… . …………………
    lol < YES . ^ \ / ^ < *oink*, ARREST .

  46. Piers says:

  47. threephasewolf says:

  48. Kitty says:

  54. Dethrax says:

    No! It’s a TIE fighter!

  55. ●.ℓנє98 says:

    What has happened to society these days?
    Instead of immediatly screaming, running about like an idiot, panicking, all simultaneously, we laugh, then ring 999/911 as the poor stickman drowns to another horrificly hilarious death.
    Damn, we are harsh these days.

  56. squish says:

    The coastguard will send their Roflcopters to the rescue.

  57. Dimpotos says:

  71. Saltmysoul says:

  72. GARBAGE DAY says:

  73. Some Idiot says:

  80. neeouh says:

    A failed attempt to draw a head and arms.

  81. milly says:

    You Call It A Fail I Call It A WIN!!

  82. Nerk says:

    To prove the failure even more, I someone is drowning, you are supposed to help first, not call. (I just had this in health class and I have an IQ of 134.)

    • lfdsfdsa says:

      Wrong, actually. The way I’ve been told, is that saving a drowning person IF YOU ARE INCOMPETENT (assume you are, unless you’re a really strong swimmer) is a BAD idea. You’ll end up with lol lol!

  83. Mike Toreno says:

    I showed it to my wife, and all she saw was the head and arms of somebody drowning. I, on the other hand, first saw the “lol” and didn’t recognize for several seconds that the intention was to show a head and arms.

  84. Rachel says:

    Oh wow… i can’t stop laughing… this stupid site makes my day so much happier…. i first saw the lol too

  85. NJV says:

    If you see someone drown, just stretch out easily in bed.

    Ahh, screams of drowning human. The sweetest of lullabies.

  86. Darth says:

    everyone stfu/ its lolbacon

  87. Huh? says:

    I don’t get it. Where’s the fail?

    I think it’s just a reminder to call for backup before you swim out there to help and we now have two people drowning.

  88. tfg says:

    I always wanna laugh out loud when i see someone drowning…

  89. Kyle says:

    “If you see someone drowning… LOL’ing is similar to calling 911″… so, your choice

  90. Ashlynn says:

    It looks like he’s drowning in bacon.. =/

  91. Darth_Danny says:

    No way… is that lol supposed to be a drawing of a guy drowning? =))

  92. Mac says:

    WARNING! Do not type lol while swimming in bacon.
    Advertencia! no lol tipo mientras que la natación en tocino.

  93. Hellbane says:

    Laugh out Loud than get bacon, and call 911

  94. da_petcu21 says:

    THAT should be WIN. You should lol before calling 911

  95. Kammerjunk says:

    I’d probably do it – I’d laugh at the person and call 911.

  96. Kenz says:

    I think Win

  97. lolerzez says:

    You know….. I think they did that on purpose.

  98. Smokey Jackson says:

  99. Eel says:

    Apparently my last comment about the fail random button got moderated or something. :(

    4th time I’ve seen this in less than an hour…

  100. qedah19 says:

    yeah right… call 911 so they can come to pick up the body later.. and… the drowning man in the sign looks like he’s trying to make u “laugh out loud”…
