Rain On Your Parade

You have a brilliant start up idea. You get investors to fork out nearly $2 million. You launch in April. Within two months you have it rolled out to 11 major cities in China. What could possibly go wrong? Well, if you have a Chinese umbrella sharing rental business and it buckets down for days, don’t expect them returned anytime soon. Yep, after a fortnight 300,000 umbrellas were stolen. The big flaw in their E Umbrella idea…..they didn’t include a charge fee for failure to return the umbrellas. Back to the drawing board.

Spiderman Fail

OK, this Spiderman can’t do everything a spider can….

Hail Mary Fail

Oh dear, someone didn’t do their homework. Instead of printing the traditional Catholic prayer Hail Mary during one of the largest Christmas Carol services in Sri Lanka some fool printed Tupac Shakur’s song of the same name. The lyrics go something like this “I ain’t a killer, but don’t push me,”  … “Revenge is like the sweetest joy next to gettin’ pussy.” ….“Fuck the world if they can’t adjust, it’s just as well, Hail Mary.” You get the drift.

Standoff Fail

Oh well, seems Aussie police aren’t immune to the occasional awks. Seems the men in blue spent 7 hours outside a house in an apparent standoff. Only prob, the house was empty. The Critical Incident Response Team members claim they were negotiating with a man who refused to leave the house but when they finally decided to enter…..crickets. Pity the fool who had to tell the school that had been in lock down all that time.

Passport Software Fail

A nicely presented Asian man had his passport photo rejected by software  run by New Zealand’s department of internal affairs. The embarrassing blunder is just awks on so many levels.

Disappearing Act Fail

Need I explain?

Carpool Lane Fail

OK, one more time loons, if you are going to try and sneak into the carpool lane put some effort into your fake passenger for goodness sakes. A 61 year old woman got busted after a cop couldn’t help but notice her poorly constructed occupant. A pillow in a jacket and cap just doesn’t cut it, even of you put a briefcase on its lap. Oh and make sure your car is registered…sheez, bummer.
