it’s not that much of a win tbh
it’s pretty sweet.
it’s pretty clever, don’t get me wrong, but i don’t think it’s worthy of failblog
Exactly what I thought, it’s a pretty cool bilboard but… It isn’t funny.
Who had so much time to capture this??
You don’t know how to spell “know” my young simpleton.
You are probably not her best option for a teacher…
he he ..quality
You do not understand the error of his ways, my child. He spelt ‘no’ wrong but simply put the wrong kind in as it should have been ‘know’. Therefore, it is a grammar mistake. You are forgiven.
It’s a word usage error, not a grammar error.
Improper word choice is indicative of poor knowledge and mild illiteracy. Usually those that don’t know attempt to defend this ignorance by claiming that people who point it out in the first place are somehow grammar Nazis or picking on insignificant things.
I suppose flipping burgers or delivering pizzas are two career positions they could assimilate in to without too much worry of this limited skill. :p
I believe “in to” there should simply be “into.”
JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJa
Do you have any evidence showing a correlation between internet typing skills and literacy and level of knowledge? Perhaps it has more to do with muscle memory and typing “no” a lot more often when thinking of that sound to type.
Perhaps we should give people a break. There are more worser offenses out there.
“Worser” hahaha. FTW!
A mistake is a mistake, for whatever reason. Why make excuses? If you wish to enter the dialogue, know that you sound like an idiot and miss your point when you don’t pay attention to your ‘muscle memory’ faux pas’. Unforgiven.
More worser?
Those WHO, not those that. Who is used when talking about a person or group of people.
into not “in to”
kan ull ov yous kwit bichen ubout falcon spellars?
WHO CARES ABOUT SPELLING, IT’S A FAIL BLOG NOT A SPELL BLOG
You do not know Te Internets,
Young Grasshoppa.
you done using improper grammer their……
Maybe it is natural light during the day, and unnatural at night?
but it would be good for EPIC WIN FTW
Yeah, that’s true. Not quite failblog material, but perfect on the other site.
Win! Fails are posted here because it reminds us of how much our Fails fail. If we didn’t have any Win! Fails, we wouldn’t have a yardstick to measure how fail our Fails really are.
*head assplodes into a zillion pieces*
We should enjoy it now, for it is hair today and gone tomorrow.
See here, now! I’m not going to strand for that kind of talk!
‘assplodes’
FAIL.
Somebody call for a mop and five gallons of Clorox?
I agree! This is a win, but not a ridiculous win.
Guaranteed to give you hair with lots of SHINE…but maybe not at night!
Maybe they’re advertising that if you buy their product, people will look straight through you… hmmm…
Haha, what terrible marketing! Wouldn’t be the first time though.
Transparent advertising — happens all the time.
I’ve never seen transparent advertising.
How do you know when you’ve run out of invisible ink?
A message pops up on the screen telling me that the printer cartridge is low.
Which I promptly ignore and manage another 1,300+ sheets of text printout. Yep, on an HP with an X cartridge.
why is this on fail blog? i dont get it…
agreed
Well, it looks like an innovative way to advertise their hair-coloring products. Though it’s neither a win or a fail. A win for creativity? Meh, if it’s not funny it doesn’t fit in FailBlog.
Who said all fails here have been funny? I recall many that made me gag.
They are typically meant to make people laugh.
They are typically meant to make people talk. And they do get us to talk.
*is silent*
You’re such a rebel!
…and wily, to boot.
Wily? Isn’t that Basil Brush in his picture? And Basil Brush was a fox last time I checked…
Yes, but his screen name is (Wily) “coyote INFJ.”
yeah…. i dun get it either
i don’t get it.
blonde -> redhead -> brunette
it’s advertising hair-colouring products
~Ahhh.~
Over the course of a day that chick’s hair changes from black to blue/white to yellow to red and then back to black.
O’rly?
Ya rly!
shiiiiit? rly?
Am i missing something here? Why is this on failblog and why is this a win.
I ‘splained it all up there, jake ^^^^^^^.
Looks like a rabbit in the first two pics.
Hare’s looking at you, kid!
all I see is ninja dust bunnies
The first two are sorta pretty, but not really…
Where is fancy bread? In the heart, or in the head?
It’s “Where is fancy bred?”.
Fancy bread is in the bakery.
It’s a win because its innovative and looks great. The sun set gives the illusion of the girl in the billboard changing hair colours all the time. Furthermore it is an advert by Koleston “naturals” which I can only assume is the name of a hair dye product. So the billboard is naturally changing its colours just as advertised. Win
oh dear stfu
Seconded. It’s a pretty great advertising idea. Of course it still says absolutely nothing real about the actual product. Which means that it’s crap and there is nothing good to say about it. But the ad itself is good.
Oh, and “sunshine ted”: Did you ever hear this saying, that the length of someone’s sentences (especially questions) is usually directly proportional to his intelligence?
May I add, that every ad hominem, especially every insult, adds a factor of 0.5 to the length part of that equation?
Brevity is the soul of wit.
.
There are exceptions to every rule.
How about rule 34?
Being somewhat unfamiliar with that particular rule, I can’t say.
That one probably has no exceptions. Sadly.
That’s just sad.
Hey.. I didn’t come up with it
tldr
I think the post was meant to show blonde, redhead, brunette? But still…
*skips into guy’s post*
*erases ‘still’ and replaces with ‘soft’*
*adds ‘What light through yonder window breaks?’*
*stands back and admires*
*skips out of post*
You do good work.
ah, brings back semi-painful memories of hardcore memorization… IT BUILT CHARACTER
It’s a win if we wanted to look at something boring. Unfortunately most of us come here to laugh; this is a huge fail in that respect.
By that definition, half of the posts on here are a fail because most aren’t even mildly amusing, let alone funny.
Don’t be so hard on yourself.
Um…what?
Ummmmmmmmmm … yeah. No.
And on an overcast day, you can look like an old woman!
Hahaha, good point!
Meh… funny or not, I think its a win. Not everyday you see something new and innovative on billboards
Agreed
Thirds.
i seriously don’t get why this is rated highly
UPLOADER FAIL
this photo is a sign that fail blog has started to become a fail itself
Voting Page.
That’s TWO words! *squeeze*
I hear Cheezburger has this one site under its network called EpicWinFTW. Maybe the uploader should check that out.
fail blog, you suck!
It’s not that FUNNY but it’s a WIN
Another sponsored post?
That’s the feeling I got. It just seems like someone paid Cheezburger to post this.
Someone should take a screen shot of this page and post IT as a fail!
We’ll call it a failblog win fail!
Haha, that doesn’t roll off the tongue too easy, though the title is a win in and of itself.
Like this?

(If anyone’s seeing a wall o’text, get TTI)
Why is this even on here?
I think it’s supposed to be racist. Don’t look at the woman’s hair. Look at her skin. At sunrise and sunset her “skin” is black. At night she’s white. The “Win” is, I guess, ironic because she’s suddenly white. And being white is good if you’re a racist.
Racist stuff are usually considered as fail (fortunately)
Dude… what? Seriously you seem like one of those persons that sees racism everywhere.
Like if the guy at Starbucks asks you ‘would you like some milk with that ‘Oh so dark cofee is bad huh? Only lighter coffee is good? RACIST!!1!’
Haha, exactly what I was thinking!
What the hell?? Really? Sweetie, you need to chill out.
You are going to FREAK when Pokemon Black and White comes out in the USA.
Will it be in Technicolor?
It will be Technicolor, HD, 3D, LED, HIV, H1N1, etc.
haha… i sort of get it as… a pun thing… cause her hair color changes with nature… and its koleston “naturals” but dont they have a page for puns…
Actually, they do.
http://somuchpun.com/
I thought she was high lighting her hair.
The same thing just dawned on me…
Actually they do have a page for puns (under the lulz portion at the bottom of the page)
http://somuchpun.com/
I want to submit a screen capture of this “WIN” to FAILBlog. At best it’s really lame product placement.
What’s with all the negative vibes moriarty? This is pretty.
Rather be drinking wine eating cheese and catching some rays.
Creativity WIN!!!
failblog fail. no win here.
I don’t get it either
Me either…
…Me either…
FYI: It maybe looks like California, but that’s actually the eastern coast of the Mediterranean Sea… Lebanon! The billboard was constructed in 2008, and has become world famous in the past two years. It was designed for the H&C- Leo Burnett Agency of Beirut, Lebanon. Credits: Art direction by Celine Khoury, creative direction by Bechara Mouzannar, billboard illustration by Mark Calina.
(Oh, and “Sunshine Ted”: you are a TROLL. Truth is knowledge, knowledge is power, and power is victory. Knowledge is not produced by silence.)
Knowledge is not produced by silence? You have much to learn.
STFUing = empowering yourself
~I always thoroughly enjoy the people who give us the ‘Pop-Up Video’ version of the fail.~
~…as well as the bonus commentary…~
I absolutely love this. Thanks for prettying up our Failblog every now and then, PTB.
*sets out a basket of squeezes for the peeps*
Agreed. It’s a lovely change.
*exchanges some squeezes*
*takes a squeeze. leaves more squeezes*
Pretty…..*smiles*
Its the weather woman!
Fail @ this Entry
No, not failblog worthy…
It’s a fantastic advertising billboard, but it doesn’t belong here.
Why is it that on weekends the trolls come out in force?
In the summer it is because there is no day camp. For the rest of the year, there is no school.
I keep forgetting that. I suppose it’s better that they have the excuse of extreme youth. It’s certainly better than the alternative.
Depends on the alternative. If it’s shutting their collective cake holes I’m for it.
Well, yes, I’m all for that. But, if they are not able to claim youth as their excuse, then they are particularly pathetic.
When did failblog change their name to WinBlog?
I suddenly have the urge to find that billboard and create Kefka right next to her face. Why Kefka? I don’t know.
This sign goes from blonde to dusk.
She’s fat.
You think so? She looks like a light weight to me.
*tickles coyote’s *** with a feather*
*skipsawayjauntily*
Oh ho. Tickle my fancy will you!
Hmmmm … I didn’t know that was your fancy!
*scribbles notes*
Composing?
Uh-huh — wanna see what I’ve got so far?
Right here? In public?!
Wull, yes. How else would you see it?
*shows*
*admires*
*blushes*
on a cloudy day, she would me an old lady.
*replaces ‘m’ with ‘b’*
Now, obstakle1, I’m not an “old lady” and my hair is almost all grey. How would you account for that?!?
My hair is almost grey as well and I’m not an old lady either. Explain that one if you will!
*has a ponder*
You’re a sheepdog?
*runsawayfast*
Well I’ll be a son of a b…
Nope. Better not go there.
Har! Beeeee-awtch!
You could never pull the wool over my eyes…
Does anyone else see the resemblance of this girl to the Ke$ha cartoon in her “Your Love is My Drug” video?
Yes.
Pure Epic Win
D: sooo BORED must DIE!!!
I’m still looking for the old lady silhouette. It must be there somewhere….
This belongs on hawtness.
I get it, it’s just not really amazing. Quite boring.
If someone responds to my comment then I will be really happy.
The paedophile from Family Guy (called Herbert), dressed as noddy besides a van with open doors saying ‘you want popsicles? i got loads of popsicles in the van!’http://www.ad-postings.co
“You do not understand the error of his ways, my child. He spelt ‘no’ wrong but simply put the wrong kind in as it should have been ‘know’. Therefore, it is a grammar mistake. You are forgiven.
” apparently you don’t know that he SPELLED “no” properly, bit used it in the wrong context.
Secondly, some people in here should live by the old adage that goes… “I would rather seem like a fool than to open my mouth and remove all doubt”.
That is all.
But used*
Sorry for the mispelling. Typed this on the iPhone…
The highschool mascot in Pekin, Illinois, across the river from Peoria, was once upon a time the ‘Chink’. I kid you not. A little Chinese guy with a long pigtail.
I don’t get it.
Me either…
Aren’t pictures on this site supposed to be funny? That’s amazing, but not amusing, if you get what I mean.
HEY EVERYBODY, I AM EXTREMELY INDIFFERENT. :U
Glad to see I’m not the only one confused as to why this is on FailBlog. Cool? Yes. But it’s not the right kind of win for FB.
Now that is the sweetest thing I have seen for a while. Constructed( the !mage) word ideas for other ideas,
blonde, red, or brunette! take your pick.
Although it looks great in all of those pictures, I can’t help that think how during most of the day, her hair would be blue or gray/white, depending on cloudiness.
Not everything in failblog has to be funny.
Don’t get it. Not funny
(P.S, I HATE COMMENT WARS!)
(P.S.S, HERE COMES ONE BECAUSE I SAID I HATE COMMENT WARS!)
Another win on FAILblog how nice…
FIRSTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
it really is a win!
It’s a fail because you can’t read the words while the sun is setting. They should have cut those out too, so light shines through…
That way you’d know what company was kind enough to put up such a billboard…
And what would really be funny is if someone took a picture on an overcast day… gray hair…
Agree with David… perfect advertising if you could read the words day and night. Otherwise, it’s still a pretty smart design I must say.
Why is this on failblog when it’s neither a fail or win
So….
I’m the only one who can see the upside-down pole dancer, then…?
er… the advertising point is to show that the hair products are for all hair colours – blond, redhead and brunettes (from top pic to bottom)
Seriously, it’s not that difficult.
but..what is it selling? Shampoo? I’m guessing hair dye?
failblog.org just take anything cool, or viral online, copy it as theirs, and label it a win or fail. Just be honest, call yourselfs a viral site.
From fail to WIN
Daewoo slim, , .
? .
.
Ha!
that is bad ass, and genius too.
This is stupid. Why is it on Fail blog? Too be honest, I don’t even get how it is a win, it is just a billboard that blocks in the view of the ocean.
? This isn’t even funny…who put this on here? It’s not fail/win worthy. It’s just clever. This should be on cleverinventions.com. I’m actually mad because I spent about 2 minutes trying to figure out how this is a “win.”
shes blonde in the morning, a redhead in the evening and brunette at night.. like how much women change their hair colour
It creative and looking good.
Does no one think that this is a magic power of nature? During the day, night, nature is very ordinary thing, but it is a reflection of beauty.
Hi, i believe that i noticed you visited my site so i came to return the desire?.I’m trying to to find things to improve my website!I guess its ok to use a few of your ideas!!
