Fail Blog

Fail Blog (stylized as FAIL Blog) is a blog website created in January 2008 that publishes editorialized discussions on social trends, cultural narratives, and opinion pieces about real life issues in the workplace and other social settings. Often through the lens of stories as they are shared online.

It was purchased by Pet Holdings Inc. to add to the growing Cheezburger Network under, then CEO, Ben Huh, in July 2008, permanently becoming a sub-brand of the Cheezburger brand and site.

In its first years, FAIL Blog featured disastrous mishaps and general stupidity in photos and video which have captions such as "fail", "epic fail", "X Fail", or "X; You're doin' it wrong" (X being the activity at which the subject has failed). There were also multiple sites under the FAIL Blog brand, including Failbook (which features FAILs on Facebook), Ugliest Tattoos, and There, I Fixed It.

Fail Blog was sold, along with the rest of the Cheezburger sub-sites and sub-brands, to in 2016.

Now, Fail Blog primarily features real life stories. Most of these sourced from Reddit with an added introduction, commentary, and photos for illustration. Fail Blog focuses on topics such as horrible bosses, employees, workplace, HOA, family drama, customer service, and entitled people.
