When your city's Major League Baseball team sets the record for futility in all of professional sports.

See Pittsburgh Pirates 1993-2009.
When they made their final out of their 82nd loss of the season, for the seventeenth consecutive season, the Pittsburgh Pirates achieved Epic Fail status in the world of professional sports.

to fail in such a way people will ask you how the fuck did you do that or to be obliterated off of a game for doing something stupid that could have been avoided
1)to epic fail in total failing status and to be annihilated from the face of the earth for no apparent reason

2)to be like the titanic and sink your self on a ice berg you could have rammed in to and lived

3) throwing a diamond over the edge of a moving boat

4)ramming a car into the roof when all the spots are taken up by fellow cars

An annoying as all fuck "internet meme" or trend used by people who aren't innovative enough to come up with an appropriate term, expression, watch too much Attack of The Show, or spend over 8 hours behind a computer.
Boy 1: Did you see that airplane take off and crash?! Dude, "EPIC FAIL"!

Boy 2: Epic----what?

Boy 1: You don't know what "Epic Fail" means, bro?

Boy 2: Being that the word "fail" isn't an adjective, I do now.

A failure so large and obvious it has to have its own catagory.
Guy 1: Dude, I just missed an A on my test by 1 point.
Guy 2: Which one did you miss?
Guy 1: I spelled my name wrong.
Guy 2: *shakes head* Epic Fail

(After SP goes 7-8 solid innings, and the bullpen immediately blows a 3-4 run or more lead)
