A word used by teenagers, or by your fellow teenage friends who cannot, for the life of them, use a word that actually makes them sound smarter then a second grader. Also a slang term for sucking. If you ever give someone a chance to say the word fail to you, kill yourself. Or redeem yourself by giving them a good shot to the nose.
You: DAMMIT! I just can't seem to get this guitar riff right!
Friend who plays Guitar Hero, and expects that since he can play the same song your trying to learn on expert, meaning he has no life, you should be able to too: FAIL!
You: *Kills Self* OR *Punches friend in the nose*
Other acts to ensure they never utter such horrible slang ever again also acceptable
*Only excusable use of this word is when an "emo" starts talking about MCR... or any form of emo music. Also acceptable when describing rap*

a word used to say that someone has screwed up at something they were trying to accomplish. like if someone trys to do a trick shot in pole but misses the pocket and hits the cue ball off the table. they have failed, but should not be used in situations where someones well-being or feelings are put on the line. also should NOT be used as a come back unless the person insulting you did NOT use a good insult in the first place. like "YOU"RE A....a....a.....YOU"RE AN ASSHOLE" you just say "And you're a failure....at life." then turn and walk away. in no way should the word fail be your best or favorite word to use in any situation.
1.a person trys to be funny by calling you a name and no one laughs. you:"And you sir, just failed like a captain."
2 this is what not to do. a person crashes on their bike. you:"FAIL!!" that is a no no.
3.someone swings a bat and the bat goes flying. you:"well...that was an awesome fail."

The term FAIL was coined by the cupo clan from the original counter-strike and quake 3 arena gaming era. It did not come from no Blazing Star game. "You fail it" and "FAIL", have absolutely no correlation, and FAIL was not derived from Blazing Star. However, the inspiration for the usage of FAIL throughout the quake community and the Half-life 1 community stemmed from the original Super Smash Bros for the Nintendo 64 in the "Break the target" challenge mode where if you fall off the map before breaking all the targets, the screen reads "FAIL" and you pretty much feel shit out of luck. No credit was given to the cupo clan due to their involvement in "Video game griefing" since the early Quake 1 days on Mplayer.
Some evidence that might help prove this fact is that anyone who dare contest the origin of this term PROBABLY played either Quake III Arena or Counter-strike for Half-life 1.
Epic fail is just a spin-off of FAIL that was created by some WoW players.
The term ''tryhard'' also originated in the Quake III Arena and Counter-strike communities. (which makes sense)
