Ginger Sign FAIL - EPIC FAIL Funny Videos and Epic Fail Funny Pictures

I don't actually know who put it up, only found out about it a few days after it was added there.

Some of the comments are a bit weird - some believe it is not a fail, but I'm not sure if thats worse for me or not... and for the record, my hair is very ginger, not 'light brown' :cool:

I don't understand. Is it supposed to be funny because you had ginger hair? If so, it's definitely a funny pic so can't be a fail. Unless they mean that the sign is a fail?

Did you post the pic there, by the way?

Yea, I don't get how its a fail either. We just though it would make a funny photo. And no, I didn't post it there, it had been on facebook for a couple of years before it got posted there.

Was it a baseball bat, and are you one of those ride-by cyclist muggers?

Not on this occasion, I was cycling around a local lake and it was dusk, it is a very ‘batty’ area, water with lots of insects hovering about and lots of trees surrounding the lake, ideal bat territory and the right time for them to be active. It was a warm summers evening and I had a few buttons on my shirt undone when this thing hit the inside of my right arm and went up into my armpit and then started to wriggle about. Naturally l bricked myself. I nearly fell off my bike whilst foraging around with my left hand under my right arm to find out what had attacked me, wobbling left and right on the bike. In fact it is a minor miracle in itself I never fell off into the margins of the lake. It was then I pulled the bat from out of my armpit, I am sure it was also in a state of shock, but flew off hopefully non the worse.
 
Was it's nose all wrinkled up?

:p

Is there a site record for how far off topic a thread has ever gotten from the OP's intent?

Perhaps you should consider a stronger anti-pipistrant :)

Smith's Gazelle; anyone heard of it?
Click to expand...

I vaguely remember hearing the story read on the radio in the late 1970s. If I remember it is a novel about someone looking for an undescribed gazelle species.

If I have a favourite gazelle it is the Grant's. But most look too similar to me.

I cannot believe you ranked the Dama gazelle ahead of the Mountain gazelle. What were you thinking?:) Also, why no love for Mongalla gazelles?

Its not that i dont love mongalla gazelles, its just that i dont know as much about them as i do other gazelle species and subspecies, but then again it is ironic that i ranked thomsons gazelle first and Mongalla gazlle last because the mongalla gazelle was thought to be a subspecies of the thomsons gazelle until relatively recently
