A story that should be near and dear to SportsJournalists.com members' hearts..

http://www.slate.com/id/2202262/

"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.

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.

Like the word "memes" for example?

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

I think I'm supposed to be offended. AT LEAST I DIDN'T D_B, DAMN IT! :)

You see, I know some people who would do that intentionally. I'm not sure that's a fail at all.

That could be devastating for us and for him. Hopefuly he had an extra nighttime dose of Ovaltine.

Well, it's 3:25 a.m. on the East Coast, which means he should be waking up any minute to hit the Golden Corral.
