A single word stamped on a picture of something going wrong. Ran an entire blog empire and was finished when television presenters began saying epic fail with a straight face.
I tried to explain FAIL to my father in 2008. He asked, sincerely, what it was for. I explained. He then explained it, with my explanation attached, to his entire address book. That is how these things actually spread.
The simplest definition of FAIL is the one you would give a parent, and the reason it is hard to write down is that the parent version is the one that killed it.
8 yrs. Not bad for something that started in Blazing Star (Neo Geo), FailBlog and had no plan. The cause listed is “Overexposure”, which is another way of saying it got too big to be the thing it was.
What does it mean? Write it the way you would say it out loud.
