Cascading Bailure 

When making plans with a group, if one person bails, so will multiple others.
We were going to go to brunch until Dan had to go into the city instead. After that John started "feeling sick" and Isabel "had to work", and the whole thing fell apart. It was a serious case of cascading bailure.

When BOTH of the following two conditions are satisfied:

(a) A person fails to attend a planned event (ex. "he totally bailed on the party")

(b) When the event that was "bailed" was super awesome, or at the very least, better than what it was the person "bailed" for. (ex. "bailing on the beach full of hot babes is both a fail and a bail, therefore a bailure?")
Alex tells his friends that he will go to the beach with them. On the beach day, Alex tells his friends he can't go to the beach because he has to take care of his friend's dog. This is the "bail."

If it turns out that the beach was full of hot babes, high-fives, and free pie, the alternative for which Alex passed up the beach is clearly a "fail."

Combined, we have BAILURE (BAIL+FAILURE).

if something seems like a lame failure, which enacts you to bail, or leave it. Could be a relationship, party, meeting. The act of calling a bailure is making a motion to leave or bust since the place you're at is bunk.
I'm going to call a bailure on this party, it's pretty much a failure so I'm bailing.

or

I'm going to make a bailure.

epic bailure 

To commit the act(s) of an epic failure to the highest degree resulting in the realization of an immediate need to flee the location of said act(s). This attempt to flee is intended to maintain any remaining shred(s) of dignity.
1. When one finds a tasty treat dangling precariously inside a vending machine and tries to dislodge it by jump kicking the front of said machine breaking the protective glass. After such an act a turn and burn, or epic bailure if you will, is executed.

2. When attempting to park a motor carriage, an individual initiates contact with several motor carriages leaving considerable damage on all motor carriages present. This crumple-rama is now left in the dust of destruction by a rather timely epic bailure.
