Your own personal "Epic Fail"

[AkJay]

Yes, the word "Epic Fail" is being thrown out in between every 2 words of a 16 year old male, but let us shed this harsh light on ourselves for once, what is your own personal story of epic fail.

As for me.. probably when i wanted to show off to my friends, i jumped off a diving board trying to do a backflip, instead i landed on the diving board, and on top of one of my nuts.. ouch.

once...like 5 minutes ago...my friend left a bitchy comment on another thread only to realise after i posted it that she hadn't logged in and i was still on, so it looked i had randomly jumped in on a conversation giving out to someone for calling her a guy! incidently she (my friend) is typing this so it was like a collective thing! our bad.

I was following my mate out of a room and he shut the door behind him in my face. I stopped it with my foot without breaking pace, and then smacked my face on the side of it because I'd caught the door right in front of me. Nobody saw, fortunately.

I can't cook with a toaster.

Don't ask how. Don't ask why.

I don't know..

Haha-I just got back from camping and had 2...well kind of one and a bit.

First night I was going back into our 2 man tent-all our stuff was piled at the front bit which we had to leap over to get in, our mosquito net was up, I had shades on so couldn't see it, and dove straight into it and bounced back.

Then today, our last day, I walked out to the end of a load of boulders sticking out into the sea, turned round, shouted, "Look at me!" and got soaked from a giant wave which hit the rocks.

I've never failed at anything

The best way to describe it is like this:

"It's not that deep..."

I ended up with a really cut up left foot.
Stones can be very sharp.

Back when I had a stint at Joystiq I put up a story about how Resistance: Fall of Man (a game Sony was calling THE reason to have BluRay) was just filled with mostly empty fluff to fill the disk all the way. Turns out the guy who ripped the game didn't adequately explain what was ripped. The game still had a ton of useless junk packed on the disk (some of it arguable, like including all those different language tracks on the same disk), but nowhere near what I made it out to be. Learned it was important to verify first.

I accidently put Cinnamon Rolls in the microwave for like 5 minutes when I was about 7.
One meet with the local firemen later.. I am sitting down just thinking.. "What the Hell just happened?"

I once set chocolate on fire while cooking. Still no idea how it happened.

Wow, that's skill. I made smores with an oxy-acetylene torch and I wasn't able to pull it off.

 

[reaper_2k9]

I sat at a stop sign and waited for it to turn green, I was really tired.

Long story made short: I wanted to show off on a skateboard > I ended up with a broken arm.
It was the only time I ever wanted to show off... I learnt my lesson well that day.

Chocolate does burn dispite that most people probably think it doesn't due to it melting first so you don't need to worry, your fail isn't epic.

As for me, I walked into a tree. Let the lesson be learned: Always look where you're going, even if friends in the vicinity could point out any potential obstacles.

 

[Soxafloppin]

not being able to get wellies off, due to the wetness. Dam.

Reminds me of:

I haven't done anything THAT bad... Although my friend did set his own house on fire while trying to cook.

This girl in my creative writing class needed a hug and being her friend I gave her one. Then as I sat back down I smacked my elbow on the dry erase board causing me to jerk, drag my desk over and rip open her shirt with my shoe as I fell to the ground.

My epic fail happened today i tired to light aloud of stuff that is flammable and it did not light. Then i tired setting off fireworks on it that did not fail so i said F&^k it then poured lighter fluid all over the stuff and tired to light it. That did not work either. So i yelled fail and left.

 

[Insert Comedy Here]

Anything I do positive has to be counteracted with a fail of some sort.
I pull of a mega good hit in cricket, I'll trip over when running to the other stumps.
It's like active neutrality, if I do good, I have to be prepared for something bad.

Oh that is nice.

When having a mock swordfight a slashed open a lightbulb and electrocuted myself. I didn't collapse until after I had legged away from there very quickly.
