And that is why you fail

A phrase used to indicate when a person is at fault or had made some sort of mistake. Can be used in a similar manner as "that's what she said" at the end of the persons' sentence.

Leaving the mall after a long day of shopping for a friends birthday present

Jake: Dude, so what did you buy?
Adam: I bought some shirts, jeans, and a fresh pair of kicks.
Jake: So which one of those is the gift?
Adam: ....gift?

Jake: And that is why you fail...

Just Kidding. You fail.

Usually added at the end of a praise to make someone feel even worse when you put them down.

22:43 - Kon: Aren't you happy that I gave you it? :(
22:43 - Krabman: Yes! :D
22:43 - Kon: XD
22:43 - Krabman: Just kidding. You fail.

you have failed me

The last thing you hear your boss say before your sudden demise. Usually because you screwed up that one time. Oops.

You have failed me for the last time, Admiral.

YOU failed

HAHAHA! WHAT!? I don't think that's how that works but OK. Kind of. I mean, what did the guy who did the shooting actually say was the reason he did it? Because it's probably just that (to the extent he has the capacity to articulate his grievance)

Hym "Nope. YOU failed. You tried to tell me that I failed and YOU failed, shit-head. Like, the national guard BEING THERE... Was supposed to prevent that. They were supposed to scare crazy-evil people into not doing crime and/or actively prevent the crime from happening as it's happening... And then look what happened. Not only did they NOT DO THAT EVEN A LITTLE BIT... But also they were the VICTIMS OF THE CRIME. That's like ME getting murdered in a mass shooting. I mean... It's like they are trying to 'manifest' things. Right? It also seems like the approval rating goes up or down at my behest. So that's neat. I say down! Shut it all down! No more approval for shit-heads! And yes Alex. I do exist. I'm like a real guy. I got a little baby dick and everything. I live in an apartment. And I am existing so fucking hard right now you would not believe. A lot harder then those fucking national guardsman, that's for sure. Because, uh, they do not do that anymore... Umm... Right. Sorry for your loss, by the way. Whoever thought having the national guard fucking stand around out there was a good idea... Does the national guard not have a plan for that? Like... The American military... doesn't have a plan... For what to do... If a guy with a gun... Tries to shoot them while the are standing around? What?"
