FoF of 2010

A few to get in before the new year:

Internet Fails....

Cause He's Paunchy LOL

While the correct verbiage, it still seems hilarious to patronize then =P

I mean...I knew they were full of shit...

...but who knew they were trying to infect the rest of the world with their crap!

This is the last posting for the year...sorry it wasn't more fail, but I have other things to address.  So, with that, I wish you a happy and safe New Year!!!! =)

Fashion Faux Pas

In two days, I captured two decent faux pas in FoF clothing....

Here they are:

A Rebel in Disney Licensed (potentially female) Apparel

I don't care if they are athletic sandals; you never wear socks and sandals "off the field".

Not to mention the classy tats >.>

Merry Kiss-Moose!!!!!

With A Motto Like This...

I am sure this Education Club would receive recommendations and endorsements from all the strangers with candy...

Because we all know that strangers have the best candy...Wuh, waaaaahhhh...Full-on Fail!

50th Post...Wow...That's a lot of FoF!

This one comes via the DailyBento. 

First of all, if I am ever THIS single (or have a house full of and carry the odor of cats), please, SOMEONE full-on fail me!

 

Cause, it's not just the camera contraption, but the full-on look that makes it so fail (take note of those awesome specs)!

So Many Things to FoF, So Little Time...

Apparently, when it rains, it pours in the world of Full-On Fail.  First things first,  we have a new, and completely unaware, acquaintance that shall be referred to as "Bad Comic", who has presented us with this little fail:



I thought it was "You", says Smokey...

Next, was my own personal FoF, which happened while trying to capture another complete Full-On Fail.  I was driving home last night and was driving behind this fail (I will go into a pictorial rundown after I explain this one).  I realized my camera was sitting home on the charger, so I attempted to retrieve my phone from my purse.  At this point, I was halfway home.  After much digging and dumping of its contents, I realized that it was sitting in my drawer at work.  Yup, I Full-On Fail with that one, lol.

So, to describe the FoF, I am going to demonstrate, through some Googled images, what I saw and why it fails.

First portion of the FoF is this:



Cause it's a Dodge Neon lol

Second portion of the FoF comes from this surrounding the license plate:



Cause it was on a Dodge Neon and it makes a lame Twilight reference...

 This fails; full-on...Essentially, you could take my car:



Not actually mine, but yes, I drive an Aveo (lol)

And add this plate frame...



 ...to create the same level of FoF.

Finally, the news is usually always lame, but this was so FoF on so many levels, I can't help but share...

Apparently, there is even a YouTube video for this (cringe)....

Just what nerdy male gamers need...(Like DOA/DOA Volleyball wasn't enough)

Another excuse to close themselves up in their homes (or parent's basements) and not look for a real "va-jay-jay" to play with...FULL-ON FAIL!

Have a great day! =)

Millions of Peaches...

...Peaches for Fail!

So, besides an unbelievely "cold", cold front here in the southwestern portion of Florida that required some serious power walking to my car, I get to the driver's side door only to find this:

I am pretty sure this looks like some form of cobbler vomit; peaches maybe...

My only thoughts are this...

If you eat that much cobbler, you are bound to throw it up at some point, making you pretty FoF, however, if there was some form of cobbler eating contest going on in my workplace's parking lot, then that is also a pretty big FoF when you consider how cold it was, and we are talking about the employee parking lot nonetheless!

Now, the only other alternative is that it was someone being a d-bag full of FoF and dumping it in the parking lot, which I would like to point out was less than 5 feet from the grass.  Yes, dumping garbage and food debris on the asphalt vs. the grass is considered a Full-on Fail and in turn makes you a d-bag if it was you who did it!

You're welcome! =)

A Quote About Failure

I am not really one for quotes, but since this one directly relates to failing, I just couldn't resist:

"You can be discouraged by failure - or you can learn from it. So go ahead and make mistakes. Make all you can. Because, remember that's where you will find success. On the far side."

~ Thomas Watson, Sr.

Please don't be discouraged by failure.  My blog, even if we poke fun, would FoF without it! =)

Everyone Has Their Priorities...

And...

It seems this gentleman has his own; beer.  At around 9:00 to 10:00 AM in the morning, this good sir needs to get his beer, and ride home (or wherever) with it in his lap.

May I tip my FoF hat to you, mister!

Many thanks go to Dr. Candy "Postpartum Barbie" Strauss for this one!

An Important Announcement for FoF XIV Fans

I received an email update yesterday from the "president" and CEO, Yoichi Wada, about a pretty full-on fail game...

Now, I am not one to beat a dead horse, but this dead horse seems to get up from the ground like a zombie and beat itself.

This game seems to be the mother of all gaming franchise FoFs, and it seems to just keep getting worse.  It makes me sad because FF, as a whole, has always been a franchise I anticipated its gaming releases.

On a positive note:  It does seem like the WoW X-pac, Cataclysm, rolled out fairly smoothly and has been a welcomed event for its players.  Congratulations Blizzard!  Now, hurry up and get Diablo III out! =)

When Gold Sellers Happen...

We hop into action!!!

Or...

At least make them think twice about talking in-game!

Sometimes, an FoF can happen in the MMO.  It's not alway just an FoF of an MMO. =D

Because FoF Hearts HP

I have a few things in the works, but came across this little HP (Huffington Post) gem.

It seemed like it was so FoF worthy, I just feel the need to share! Here goes (The funniest, in my book, out of the 48 listed):

A little over the top, but funny none-the-less

So...it is called a "conversion" now?

I don't even know where to begin...or end...>.>

I am sure they only serve the finest desserts!

Family Food Fun Turns To FoF

As seen on TV on Thanksgiving day...Could it be fun for the whole family, or just an awkward moment while your chewing a bite of turkey with Granny at your left?

Pretty sure that ranks as a family full-on fail (holiday style)!

Dedicated to a very special ninja I know, who had to endure this...



Happy Holidays!!!

BFS w/ My BF, OMG WTF? So FoF! | Moar Pics FTW!!!

I know it's Wal-Mart, but was it too much for "corporate" to send some sturdier signs (with proper spelling)?

This is the tri-fecta, people; Underwear hanging out, butt crack hanging out, and a wife beater were always abound at Wal-Mart!

Butt crack and undies in all their glory!

The sea of people....FAIL (Full-On)

Moar Crack Bunny!!!  I think it was a vicious "jackalope" (not to be confused with a Penelope, which is just a little bit better than everyone) in disguise.  That or the Monty Python Rabbit; pretty sure he was gonna lure us to his cave-like dwelling! =)

BFS w/ My BF, OMG WTF? So FoF!

So, the night started with a little movie called Burlesque...How FoF, but the most important fail was the guy who walked in and watched it in the back row "all by himself"; you can draw the same conclusion we did!

Next was a quick trip to Toys 'R' Us, and a very quick decision to not wait in the "200 in - 200 out" line from hell.  This sent us to the nightmare known as Wal-Mart.  There were an amazing array of mullets, men in genie pajama pants and sneakers, bare feet, pregnancies, and parents with small children in crazy Black Friday shopping situations.  Here are some highlights:

Next we headed to Kohl's.  Our original plan was to hit up Taco Bell, but they went the way of the FoF and were closed...wuh waaahhhhh!

After about a 30 minute wait, a very nice group of strangers sold us some albino hot dogs.  I kid you not, they were as white as the inside of the bun.  Yes, we were so hungry we were completely willing to take food from a stranger offering hot dogs from the back of his truck. >.>

All that was left of these dogs?  Here you go:

We made friends with the couple in front of us, but it was pretty fail when she let her cougar friend cut in front of us:

Quite literally, she has jungle cat sneakers, RaWr..FoF!

Inside was pretty uneventful, or rather, not particularly FAIL.

Next was Target.  We had to wait about 10 minutes before it opened, but we also had to wait in the back of the line, which was all the way down to the back of the parking lot.  Once we were in, we knew it was going to be crazy.  Dr. Candy "Postpartum Barbie" Strauss, almost saw a fight break out between two women, I am pretty sure someone pulled a fire alarm, and the poor male cashier was so nervous, he gave her an extra gift card and gave her a free memory card.

After the last bit of Target awesomeness, we picked up some breakfast biscuits and headed home,  On the final stretch - my road - a most cracktastic and fail bunny took the wrong turn at Albuquerque, got loaded up on crystal meth, and wouldn't stop hopping in front of the car.  With our minds being mush, we could do nothing but try to take pictures and laugh hysterically.

 
All in all, it was a great time full of great Full-On Fails.  I will get my other photos loaded up tomorrow! 

FoF for the Holidays!

I wish I had some tremendously fantastic fail to provide you with as a Pre-T Day treat, however, you are just going to have to settle for this (so FoF, I know):

From the Real World (Or Land of the Living), We Have Super Sanitary Conditions

From the land of not undead, we have floating corpses!

Noticing a trend on Patch Day

In the land of undead, we find large piles of crap...Obviously, we strike a pose =P

To avoid the TSA pat down, this bird chose to fly cheap and parachute down; seems a bit redundant to me!

To all of you, I wish a happy and safe goggle, gobble day, and hopefully after year two of the Black Friday madness, I will have some truly FoF to share!

Good Morning, America!

Mary Brown has reported in and stated: "Where can I get me a sweet shirt like this?"

My only response to this fail is:  "McDonald's, obviously!" =P

Can't Spell Final Fantasy Without a Little Fail

After reading http://blog.games.yahoo.com/photos/178-biggest-game-flops-of-2010 yesterday, I started thinking.  First, I remember having issues with the original MMO, FFXI, at launch, but now to see all the PC and console players in an uproar, I think it may be safe to say Square has produced another fail (full-on style).  Some of the gripes from the previous game (FFXI) came years into its launch; the game got stale.  Stories had been increasingly rushed for the expansions, making them weak and light, the graphics could not be upgraded much, due to the PS2 console's limitations, general boredom from the very "big effort, little reward" mentality that comes from a lot of overseas developers, and lots of hope fell to FFXIV for a cure to all the consumer complaints.

Now, from most of the articles and people have spoke with about this, I can say that it seems they dropped the ball again; delivering a sub-par band-aid for the MMO universe.  Conducting some research of this game, I found, right out of the gate, you need a serious gaming machine, purchased or upgraded most recently, and that isn't even for a suped-up gaming and graphics experience.  I even compared the system requirements to other popular titles including its predecessor, and this is what I found:

Final Fantasy 11 System Requirements

Final Fantasy 14 System Requirements

WoW System Requirements

Aion System Requirements

For the record, making graphics superb does not fix a bad or diluted storyline; plenty of regular RPGs have proven that, but to compound it by creating a world where fans of a series need to upgrade PCs to just log in to a game really drives off the consumer base heavily.

That brings me to the second area of fail concern; the story.  Based on actual people playing the actual game, I hear the story isn't great.  Any fan of RPGs knows that the story can be the vehicle for long term commitment.

Other areas of concern are poor movement and combat mechanics, numerous system bugs, and a plethora of users quitting before the trial period ends.  Sure, Square may make a little coin from initial game purchase, but if no one sticks around long enough to pay the ridiculous subscription fee (much more costly than WoW or other competitors), how will it profit from this title?  Maybe the console launch will go more smoothly (I doubt it, though).

These types of screw-ups are why I am patiently waiting for Cataclysm and Star Wars: The Old Republic.

For a fun and humorous look at a comedic Square fail, see below =):

So many places we could go with this one...I think I will just chuckle instead =P

From Point 'A' to Point 'Fail'

On my way home from work on Monday, I realized I had to pick up some Soy Milk from the store.  The lactose intolerant can't truly enjoy her morning coffee without it.  On my way out of the store, I saw this car a few lanes down from mine:

Now, before anyone gets "up in arms" and begins to think I am failing a woman's right to choose; please, don't.  What this sticker reminded me of was a very funny blog called Shit My Kids Ruined (http://www.shitmykidsruined.com), which my very good friend, Dr. Candy Strauss (also affectionately known as "Postpartum Barbie"), showed me one day during a work break.

As I walked by that car, I thought of all the poor mothers on that site that submitted photos from their children's utter fail.  In some cases, I suppose the 2 minute turn around may have made it their fail, but I digress.  I know, more than anything, that those mothers may have chosen 'Yes' back then, but I know first hand that they were questioning that choice when they saw things like this:

I am pretty sure this is what Satan looked like as a baby.  At least he is health conscious.

Let me just tell you, if you want to see some fail at its finest (besides here lol), I definitely recommend this site for all the best, "Toddler vs. Kindle" to "Kids with Crayons vs. Kittens and other Live Pets", entries and posts.
