    "Why is everyone saying "fail" all of a sudden?"

    Oh, facepalm.jpg

    Hey, Slate guy, it's not "an epic fail" or "a fail". It's fail and epic fail. No indefinite articles.

    Oh irony of ironies, the Slate guy's article about fail is full of fail.

    I just wanted to say I revisited the failblog the other day, and laughed so hard for so long that I had tears coming down my face.

    I love when things that I'm already sick to effing death of are touted as some new fringe sensation. Then again, stories like this sometimes alert me to memes I had no clue about.

    Bud, if a thread title ever summed up its starter better, I haven't seen it.

    Is it wrong that when I saw that, I kicked myself for not thinking of it?

    I still think this is the most badass plate ever. And I have seen a few out on the road before.
