Fail

Fail is derived from an old video game that was originally made in Japanese and then translated (poorly) into English. When the failure (game over) screen appeared in English, it would say:

"You fail it!"

Fail means to suck, to not succeed, or to be horrible at something.

"You bought a cassette tape? You fail."

"You missed a hit at point blank range? EPIC FAIL!"
