» 122 Failures in Communication

  1. Mouse says:

    sign, sign, pass

  2. qwertyuiop. says:

    FIRSTTTTTTTTT

  3. yugypeerca says:

    i wonder what kind of games they have

  4. Morgan says:

    ahhh! too many gay jokes at once 0.o

  5. M.U. says:

    Any one of those would have been unremarkable, two would still have been unimpressive, but packing three unintentional double entendres into such a short block of text is quite an achievement.

  6. Born Toby Wilde says:

    Ah, the combined smell of testosterone, adult sexual immaturity syndrome and homophobia. Fail at being a fail.

    • TwoMayToe says:

      stfu.

    • Danny says:

      Ah, the smell of tryhard elitism.

      Place your snubby upturned nose *here* and SNIFF.

      • nipplejuice says:

        danny win

      • Fault says:

        There’s a difference between being an adult and being an elitist. If you don’t know the difference, then you aren’t an adult.

        • Eric says:

          You’re right. The difference is, adults don’t go around berating Failblog pictures on the internet; they have the common sense to know where immaturity belongs and to let it be. Elitists, however…

    • Fault says:

      You win. This is only a trifecta of fail if you’re a homophobe. Why are so many people on the internet so proud of being immature and narrow minded?

      • Art Radio says:

        Most of my friends are gay and even they think the sign is hilarious.

      • Dacling says:

        Oh, so I am a homophobe now. I guess I should stop hanging out with half my friends. All of which who would laugh at this. I think you are the one who has the problems. You must be a homophobe also as you were able to look at it and see the gay jokes. If you were truly not homophobic at all you would have looked at this and not gotten the joke. Note that I am using your assumption that all of the people who though this were funny are Homophobic. Since we have established that I will end by saying you are just an Elitist homophobe who turns his nose up at this only so you can keep believing you are better everyone else.

      • sigh says:

        Yeah, sorry. If you want to play the “I’m a better ally to my gay friends than you are” game, that’s fine, but I assure you my gay friends would find this hilarious.

        Knowing when it’s okay to laugh is part of knowing the difference between right and wrong.

    • Ess says:

      Is it lonely up there on your pedestal?

    • nzm1536 says:

      Ah, the combined syndrome of oversensitivity, political correctness and being new to the internet.

    • Reki says:

      Actually, I see NO homophobia ANYWHERE. And all you need is a dirty mind, not immaturity. And you are obviously a girl since you think that testosterone causes it as well.

  7. James Brooks says:

    This is a shopping arcade found in the heart of Adelaide, Australia. I walk past it quite often while in the city. First time I saw the sign as a teenager I laughed my ass off. Triple fail indeed :D

  8. R3sistance says:

    This isn’t a fail, there is no way to predict the way English will be changed in the future, for example if suddenly “failers” became synonymous with homosexual in 30 years time, would we assume everybody that ever visited this website was homosexual reading other’s blogs… I some how doubt that. Gay originally meant (and still means) happy so this is actually Happy’s arcade, not homosexual’s arcade.

    • Alan Gerow says:

      The fact that “Gay” is used in the possessive form, would imply that it is a name. Such that James Cumming erected an arcade in 1885 and named it after someone with the last name of Gay. So likely “gay” in this context does not mean “happy”. “Gay” as an adjective could not possess an arcade.

  9. dj_4 says:

    that’s in Adelaide Arcade

  10. WetSandinMyTummy says:

    To all those standing up for gays out there. Come on, it’s funny. If it would’ve said “Girl’s arcade” or “Jennifer’s arcade”, whatever, it would have been more than a trifecta, m’kay thanks bye.

    • Fault says:

      Your statment implies that you enjoy making fun of both gay people and women. If this is so, I recommend seeking professional help. If not, your grammar fails at communication, I recommend seeking further education.

      • tereglith says:

        Your statement implies that you enjoy attempting to correct the morals of people on the internet. If this is so, I recommend seeking professional help to cure your need to attempt impossible feats. If not, you clearly do not understand that your endeavor is futile, and I recommend that you lurk moar.

  11. shar says:

    *sigh*

    Remember the good old days when you could use the words “gay” and “erected” and “cumming” all in the same sentence without giggles and snickers?

    Yeah, me neither.

  12. Danny from Hells Kitchen says:

    Finally, an arcade thats gayer than Aladdin’s Castle.

  13. Evertide says:

    What kind of video games did they have back then?

    • ilech says:

      the erection is cumming’s, and its gay’s.
      like, how bout, wack a mole.. sputune ball… tiddly twinks!

  14. Danny says:

    I’m gay, it’s hella funny.

    Y’all need to get over yourselves.

  16. tookie says:

    this belongs in the hall of fail

  17. Bosuil says:

    @ R3sistance (and others): if you “explain” everything, humour will be dead in a few years.

  18. POC says:

    GAY ERECTED CUMMING JAJAJA LOL

  19. glass cactus says:

    See, I thought this was win, because it wasn’t funny when it was created, but it is now. It’s like a joke that was a century ahead of its time…just waiting around for people to get it.

  20. Gretgor says:

    Wouldn’t it be four fails? He’s an architect.

  21. wowogeegee says:

    Gay is actually a last name. In Québec, we spell it Guay. I feel sorry for those who have to deal with all the stupidity aimed at them for being named Gay or Guay.

  22. RiderLeangle says:

    This HAS to be intentional..

    • Ess says:

      In 1885 Australia…probably not very likely.

    • James says:

      Gay only meant happy, or a persons name at that time. Cummings is a common enough name as well. What is the manufacturer of the diesel engines used in dodge full size pick ups again, oh yeah Cummings.

  23. Me says:

    I’d consider this a WIN!

  24. Cyberwolfman says:

    May it be an erection that stands for all time!

  25. thestudent2010 says:

    I would say this is more of a win.

  26. Popanator says:

    Mmm… that’s an arcaid I wanna visit with my brothers. I can imagine playing with all those nice hard joysticks!

  27. Wetpixels says:

    Wow. That’s the Gold Standard of FAIL.

  28. Laura says:

    Not a fail … not unless you’re a 12 year old boy. *Rolls eyes*

  29. Deep In The Heart says:

    I suppose you do find a point in the fact that the word “gay” describes a type of behavior involving masculine sexuality. One does not have to make a judgement of any kind upon the lifestyle to appreciate the relatedness of the three terms.
    The only reason I’d *sign, sign, pass* on this would be the relative baseness and immaturity of the humor and the likelihood for trollish commentary to abound, no doubt leading to hurt feelings for some.

    • gosauce says:

      The only people doing anything close to trolling here are those saying the fail sucks because its “immature”. You’re on fail blog for crying out loud. This place used to be where you go to laugh at people getting hurt, and things haven’t changed much.

    • Eric says:

      So…what exactly were you expecting? Someone to come along and comment “Haha this shows that homosexuality is wrong”? No, really, I’m trying to imagine.

  30. TorachiKatashi says:

    I’m also gay, and yes, I did laugh at this when I saw it. So please, don’t try to speak for all gay people. Whining pricks like you who immediately drop the homophobe card whenever you get the chance, are the reason people are getting so sick of gay people. I’m one of you, and I’M sick of you.

    On a side note, even if the point you were trying to make wasn’t totally whiny and annoying, the correct term in this sense would be heterosexist, not homophobic.

    • Dacling says:

      I may not be gay, but it seems most of the people saying this isn’t funny aren’t gay themselves but In fact are just elitists who don’t laugh at things because they want to believe they are better than everyone else.

  31. Nik says:

    FINALLY someone posted this on Failblog. Well done fellow Adelaidian!! Walking past this sign everyday I was always too lazy to bring a camera.

  32. 1stcomment says:

    There once was a genie with a ten foot wiener
    And he showed it to the lady next door
    She thought it was a snake
    And hit it with a rake
    And now its only five-foot-four

  33. A lol in the life (remastered) says:

    And thats why you are the propietor of this establishment.

  34. Saira says:

    This isn’t a fail. This is awesome!

  35. Saira says:

    This isn’t a fail. This is awesome!

  36. Mitch says:

    Yep, we have Gay’s arcade and two large balls in the middle of our mall. Does anyone feel something Freudian going on or what?

  37. tassiebear says:

    Actually, our society is the fail. When this marble was engraved, none of these words would have evoked a derogatory response. Don’t blame the people of the past for our current stupidity.

    • Dacling says:

      Just because it wasn’t funny when it was created doesn’t mean it isn’t funny now. Get off your pedestal and get down with the rest of the idiots you speak of because you are obviously one of them.

      • tassiebear says:

        In 50 years when someone posts the name Dacling as a FAIL, will you not be the least offended by it? I’m simply saying that society is changing in many ways, including to stoop so far as to make fun of people’s names. In its day, this cornerstone wasn’t a mistake in any way–I’m simply saying we’ve made it that way. No need for the outburst.

  38. Trink says:

    Oh man, I live in Adelaide and I walk past this sign at least a couple of times a week – never fails to inject a little ray of LOL into my day.

  39. Kookas says:

    I don’t see how this is homophobic. Is it saying anything derogatory of homosexuals? I’m sure that no-one ever accuses a fail of being heterophobic… ¬¬

  40. Geoffrstone says:

    I had a picture of this on my phone for years. Love it. It never crossed my mind to submit it here.

  41. L says:

    Too many bigoted comments on this FAIL, “chill Winston”

  42. Radelaide!!! WOOO! lol

  43. Rai says:

    Here, we see the rare “Hat trick fail” in it’s natural habitat.

  44. mingming says:

    this is in adelaide! i live in adelaide and walk past it at least twice a week in the mall. haha

  45. kernell says:

    THAT had to be on purpose!

  46. Davey says:

    lol exceedingly common proper last name fail.

  47. kingcobra501 says:

    gay
    erected
    cumming
    that is alot of fail for one picture

  48. Gabriel G says:

    OMG … that is a lot of fail for so little words *lol*

  49. ShadowMuse says:

    Take THAT Westboro!

  50. jiriji says:

    Yes, it’s in Adelaide in Rundle Mall.

    And to all you idiots who associate the word “arcade” with video games (as in an amusement arcad) in this instance it has nothing to do with that. An arcade is a covered, arched (where we get “arc” from) walkway. Imagine a mall with an arched roof.

    Now consider yourselves edumicated.

  51. flavorfulless says:

    I think this should be a total win.

  52. Dann says:

    You know… if you erase some words it could say: Gay´s erected cumming…XD

  53. vampdestiny says:

    They also have a drag queen shop in this arcade, apparently. I’m too scared to ask where. I keep looking…

  54. 1stcomment says:

    Hey guys!!!!! guys!!!!!!!!!! guys!!!!! I got a funny comment…..
    wait for it…..

    wait for it……….

    THATS WHAT SHE SAID!
    XD

  55. trundle mall says:

    It’s innocent funny little things like this that make Adelaide so amiable. <3

  56. Cakeman says:

    Does anybody realize that a “trifecta” is a kind of horse race?
