fail

You're having fun, you're partying, you're playing along in fun contests - having a great time. There's a 'drink this frozen drink as fast as you can through a straw' contest that you volunteer for. What could possibly go wrong?

Your tax dollars hard at work.

My sister's back in the day had the hair curler's back in the day and no morning started without the Spackle cycle

These guys thought it'd be funny to honk their horn and act like they're about to hit some dude walking across the icy road. There's only one problem - the road is icy. What do you think happens next?

In your brain dead moments in sport's history, this Russian basketball player passed the ball to the coach on the sidelines.

We like to think of ourselves as pretty adventurous creatures. We'll throw back a few fried turkey testicles if the mood strikes, or dunk our heads in a vat of warm urine for a couple hundred bucks. Unfortunately, there are times when our adventurous actions are backed with good intentions, and go completely unappreciated. Like putting icy hot on our babe's vibrator, for instance.

People love watching videos of other people failing at something, whether it be failing at life or failing at the reason they were making the video in the first place, then post the outtake. We do because it makes us feel better about ourselves. It's the same reason we watch Mtv. To ring in 2013, let us look back at some of the best fail videos of 2012. Some doozies in here.

Watch, as this idiot flies through the air with the greatest of ease. Actually, he doesn't fly so much as crash. And it's not so much ease as it is fail. So, watch as he crashes with the greatest of fail. Yeah, it's what he gets. And have you noticed many of these videos feature kids who live in nice houses and have nice cars in the driveway...

One of my most favorite type of videos on YouTube are the ones of news bloopers. Ones where they're video-bombed from the background, ones where they say the wrong words, ones where they can't stop laughing - I love'em all. In case you missed any from 2012, here are the best news bloopers of 2012...

Attention everyone: we now officially have T-minus eight days until Christmas, and preparation time is running out faster than we can shove holiday cookies in our mouths. We still have to buy last-minute presents, dig out those stockings from the back of our closets and make time for that awful office party.

The funniest thing about this video, to me, isn't what he did to that spider, but it's what he says after he did what he did.
