Catchphrases

rkmsuf · 04-22-2008, 12:51 PM

Man, internet catchphrases catch on fast. I'm on the little league field with 10 year old boys and as they are going through pitching drills I hear near the mound "Fail!" when one of them misses the strike zone. A couple of them were using the term with mechanics too when they messed up. Cracked me up.

Maybe the use of "Fail" extends to tv. I'm just familiar with it from the interwebs.

I drove past a church, and the church's sign outside said "STICK IT IN HER POOPER."

Actually, I think that was the name of the church.

I don't think I've ever heard "Fail" online or anywhere else.

MikeVic · 04-22-2008, 12:54 PM

I've used Epic Fail a couple of times.

Kodos · 04-22-2008, 12:54 PM

FAIL.

rkmsuf · 04-22-2008, 12:54 PM

I believe it is frequently photoshopped as a caption.

Cringer · 04-22-2008, 12:54 PM

I'll buy that for a dollar.

I think the catchphrase fails. It's not funny.

Get used to unfunny? I refuse. Next you are going to tell me I must watch Jay Leno.

Dola...

Hey, if everyone could chime in and let everyone else know whether they think this specific joke is funny or not, that would make for a great thread.

MikeVic · 04-22-2008, 04:02 PM

I think it's funny.

cartman · 04-22-2008, 04:40 PM

It worked to finally keep a certain MaxFB fanboy from coming around here and claim we discriminate against all non-Solecismic games.

Karlifornia · 04-22-2008, 06:23 PM

How would it be funny? It's not like a joke with a punchline...it's the pictures that are funny. The "fail" is just there.

MJ4H · 04-22-2008, 07:13 PM

rkmsuf · 04-23-2008, 08:29 AM

People that don't find this funny:

FAIL

ISiddiqui · 04-23-2008, 08:40 AM

I find it funny... but yes, it's the pictures (or situations) that are funny and "FAIL!" just encapsulates it.

I think you should have a pretty good sense at this point.
