blog fail

fail blogs. probably the one thing that hasn't failed so far on the internet. and there is no reason for it not to, everyone likes seeing people fall or hurt themselves or make a fool of themselves. it's human nature.

so what is a 'fail'? it is finding a picture that says just that - the person or thing in this picture has done something stupid. it could be a mistake in a direction board / placard or a person giving dumb answers to really simple questions or generally people doing something they are not supposed to be doing at that point in time. just about anything stupid.

there are a whole host of blogs and sites that collate and showcase these 'fails' the most noteworthy of them is one called failblog.org or wowfailblog.com. there is even a decently funny political one dedicated to surprise surprise politics called politicalfailblog.com.

so, i'm guessing you got the gist of what a 'fail' means in an online medium. if you haven't then this would be a 'blog fail'.

here's a book that showcases the losers around us.
