» 146 Failures in Communication

  1. CentaX says:

    yay, free internet!

    • Skeletor says:

      Adress please…

      • Kpness says:

        he’s syphoning it from your house

        • loladahl10 says:

          Someone said free?

          • CentaX says:

            But you DO see the sign next to the “FAIL” don’t you?!

            • Stelly says:

              I don’t see the fail here…In fact if it said “Fat girl 225′ I would think it was a WIN. You know them fat girls when at public restaurants order a meal and pick at it for an hour and say “I am full”. Then they go home and stuff their face in private. Your not fooling anyone!

              Or, if you misinterpret it as “all you can eat girl, for 250″ then you as the reader have failed……

              • InternetPervert says:

                I know what it means! And I know what I choose to perceive it to mean!

                Besides, I don’t see a period in there. For $250, I’d better be getting my fill of several girls. AND one of those ladyboys on the side!

  2. Raptoplob says:

    Something for everyone to much through!

  3. K@ the Custard fairy says:

    Buff eh!

  4. Ian says:

    250? too beacoup!

  5. Michael says:

    This is thailand, i guess?

  6. grannycatflap says:

    I’ll take the ladyboy and a tossed salad

  7. Czuhc says:

    The sign doesn’t mention women with bionic legs.

  8. ImDJT says:

    I love how on the “Free InterNet” sign it looks like they’ve covered up the word “Joint” … subliminal advertizing?

  9. Dan says:

    I can’t decide if ladyboy means A lady with a big appetite or a pansy man. I also wonder if there should be a fourth “American.”

  10. The Moomin says:

    It has girl, ladyboy, boy and salad buffets. This leads to two possibilities:

    1. Carrots and tomatoes come here to eat.
    b. MATT’S JOINT BUFFET IS PEOPLE!

    *flees with Charlton Heston*

  11. Oulshroum says:

    Bah! Thats not a fail thats a WIN!

  12. James says:

    It’s in English, people. this is probably on Khao San road or a similar tourist ghetto and is meant as advertising. While there are plenty of ladyboys in thailand, it’s a safe bet that they’d be better serverd with the same notice in thai. Also: 250 for a buffet sounds sort of cheap until you really think about it and realize that’s the same price (around a fiver) a lunchtime thai buffet will cost you in london these days at a cheap place.

  13. Sun says:

    mmmmmmmmm All you can eat as a women

  14. Was this in Thailand?

  15. keithybabes says:

    I take it that proof of ladyboy status will be required.

  16. bo3rn says:

    if i eat a girl and a boy, do i get any discounts?

  17. BAReFOOt says:

    The real FAIL is the social pseudo-correctness of the one who thought it was a fail.
    A man usually eats more than a woman. A womanish guy or a manish woman eats somewhere in between on. On average these assumptions are true. If you can’t stand reality, then just kill yourself please. Thanks.

    • Xarcharon says:

      ..and of course.. a boy takes longer to be eaten than a girl. But ladyboy has the best sauce..

    • Randy says:

      As with most assumptions about the gender divide, the fact that it’s usually true doesn’t make it any less discriminatory or any more right. In the US, that would be illegal – it’s REVERSE discrimination against men. (Yes, I know the picture is likely from a restaurant in Thailand – I’m just sayin’.)

      • Droo says:

        “…the fact that it’s usually true doesn’t make it any less discriminatory or any more right.”

        Um, really? Because logic would dictate that is exactly what it means. It wouldn’t be any more “wrong” than having separate women’s/men’s basketball leagues.

        • Mouse says:

          You say that as if separate basketball leagues are “right”.

        • grrr says:

          You’re missing the point. The fact that something is USUALLY true for a certain group means it’s discrimination to assume that it’s true for EVERY member of that group.

          Also, the practice of having gender-separated sports leagues is a relic of older times, and nowadays is being challenged. For instance, many high schools now allow girls to play on boys’ sports teams as a result of complaints about discrimination.

      • grrr says:

        “In the US, that would be illegal – it’s REVERSE discrimination against men.”

        a) You’re right, other commenters are idiots :)

        b) Any thoughts on the practice of bars charging men cover and letting women in for free (or for less)? That always seemed like discrimination to me. It seems VERY common though…

    • Arthur Eld says:

      Sag mal, bist du immer so wütend? Ich mein’, auch im echten Leben? Wenn ja ist das bestimmt anstrengend…

    • D.M. says:

      Since you seem to think it’s so straightforward, explain to me how you figure to go about fingering the ladyboys without discrimination.

  18. Randy says:

    Discriminatory, offensive… and ridiculously funny.

  19. Julya says:

    I wonder how they check if you’re a real girl or a ladyboy…

    Please miss, you look a bit masculine, can I check something? *squeeze fondle*

  20. grannycatflap says:

    *tucks*
    does this entitle me to a discount?
    *displays mangina*

  21. flonken says:

    I think this is in Koh Phi Phi, Thailand.
    If I’m right, I saw this sign there last year.

  22. Benji says:

    Discriminatory pricing? Fail.

    Attempt at catering to a non-binary definition of gender? Win.

    Naive understanding of non-binary gender definitions? Fail.

    Still better than whoever thought this was a fail, I’d wager.

    • Julya says:

      I feel sorry for the Lordgirls

    • Esprix says:

      Well put. I’d also add:

      Knowledge of foreign cultures? Fail.

    • ¡Great Scott! Me transmitte sursum, caledoni ▲Caution slow posts▲ says:

      Take it up with all the immature fools who voted this to the front page.

    • ased says:

      They’re Thai, so I suspect their use of the girl/boy/ladyboy trichotomy is not a result of naive understanding of nonbinary gender definitions. In fact, I’m inclined to suspect naivete is the one of the last things involved.

      Anyhow, as others have noted, it’s for the benefit of the tourists.

      • Benji says:

        You’re right. This is really little different than the assumption in most of Western society that there are only two genders.

        I still call fail on whomever submitted this, and those who voted for it.

      • snokful says:

        Yup, there are three genders in Thailand, although ladyboys are ridiculed and seen as very disappointing to be a parent of. Suicides do happen because of it. And of course there are many who don’t fit into those three genders/presumed sexualities – including trans dudes! Butch women & trans guys are seen as too threatening. ‘Toms’ are pretty marginal, but at least they are visible, unlike in many other cultures.

  23. grannycatflap says:

    I can eat a ladyboy for hours, but I’m not sure why

  24. blackgarnets says:

    ♫Dude eats like a lady…♪

  25. db says:

    the name of that restaurant is called “The Pope’s Servant”

  26. Fielding Goodney says:

    eat me…

  27. Dargus says:

    Err… I’ll have the salad.

  28. Mistress Mutilator is a lil Devil says:

    You go now, you here three hour!

  29. Mentos says:

    Where is the pricing for a Boylady?

  30. Kelly says:

    I didn’t understand what a ladyboy is, or why everyone assumed it was Thai. Then I googled it. Wished I hadn’t…… ::shudders::

  31. Erin says:

    Gotta love Phi Phi Island in Thailand!!

  32. ivan says:

    oh the horrific Phi Phi!!

  33. Jack says:

    I have been there its in Thailand on Phi Phi island.

  34. Jordan says:

    What is a ‘ladyboy’ anyway…
    O_o

  35. Steve D. says:

    Do they serve ladyfingers?

  36. melanie says:

    haha i totally took a photo of that same restaurant sign last year in thailand

    http://www.flickr.com/photos/melanie1127/3342854279

  37. tktk says:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kathoey

    Its a south east asian thing.

  38. Willy says:

    haha i love thailand! i dont wanna leave…

  39. Oli says:

    I think this is a WIN!

  40. Onion says:

    Men are always discriminated against.
    It’s time we fight for our equality!

  41. Aaron Hong says:

    Anyone else reminded of “Nature No Free” (something like that)?

  42. maglindracia says:

    Thanks for the link to wiki, it was educational.

  43. Connie says:

    The correct thai term for lady bor would be “Kathoey”

  44. Connie says:

    I meant boy not bor

  45. Luke Biddell says:

    OMGGG!!! I ACTUALLY ATE HERE!! I went to phiphi for christmas (i live in thailand) and i ate there!!! wowwwww. im a legacy ;D

  46. YukiEiri says:

    How is that fail? :D

  47. Crusty says:

    Heyyy the salad buffet eats for cheapest…. That’s so intolerant, they must be veggies…

  48. Sexy Sadie says:

    I don’t wanna eat a ladyboy.

  49. Shelly says:

    It might be Samoan. There is a third gender (men living as women), and it isn’t really seen as a shameful thing like it is in Thailand.

  50. pothead says:

    I like the “Free InterNet JOINT” :D

  51. Dean says:

    Hermorphandites are both sexes,so do they charge double and do they open the door to the restaurant for the female by the male ?Confused already ?

    • Me says:

      It is hermaphodite. The word comes frm the greek demigod hermaphroditus who was transformed into a half male half female by the wishes of the girl who had a crush on him.

  52. micah says:

    $2.75 all you can eat.
    im gonna have to borrow a dress.

  53. adrian says:

    just wanted to point out that charging a different price for a guy than a girl is probably illegal…additional fail!!!

  54. melanie says:

    im pretty sure nothing is illegal in thailand. lol

  55. oak says:

    to be fair, this is probably pretty accurate in terms of how much a person is likely to eat.

    and hey, at least they recognize three genders. the US can’t handle more than 2

  56. Lexual says:

    Actually, I think this might be a Ru Paul win:

  57. Spike says:

    It’s on Koh Phi Phi, been there last year.

  58. DenimPants says:

    Uhm. This wouldn’t be in Thailand would it? cause I think Ladyboy is an actual sex there… or something similar.

  59. fundriver says:

    nothing fail…

    WIN!
