The hashtag is common Twitter parlance, so this is predominantly used on Twitter but has broken out into everyday speech.

Commonly used in forums, chatrooms, and online games. Used to symbolise that whatever the previous or quoted person said had just completely failed, being a fail in grammar, or life. The / before the fail is derived from HTML language in which ending a function defined by a /. The / also emphasises how the person in question failed and should not continue to post moronic things on 'teh interwebs' as their father taught them, but to ask to have their passport and material possessions confiscated and have themselves shipped off to a third world country.

A word that used to mean "not succeeding" and was used by normal, literate people.
But these days "fail" is mostly used on the internet by no-life teenage losers. (Sometimes even in real life)
They say phrases such as "this FAILS", "you FAIL at life" and "FAIL" and "EPIC FAIL".

When someone says or does something extremely stupid that causes them to look like a huge newb, usually results in self inflicted pain and humiliation.
"Lauren, Jurasic Park is a movie, not a place! FAIL!"
"Watch, Carly is about to do a belly flop... FAIL!"

"Fail" is a word that is more than often overused online. Unfortunately it has spewed into mainstream society and now is being used in every day life, much like "epic".
People who "fail" generally are not even trying to accomplish anything, or they simply do something different than you. This word is most commonly used by annoying teenagers (who put a bad reputation on gaming), who shout "FAIL!" every time someone makes a slight error.
If you point out an obvious flaw by saying "FAIL" you're obviously a failure yourself for having lack of logic.

Kid: I just tripped because someone...tripped me.
Idiot who doesn't use logic to realize it wasn't the kids fault for being tripped, it was actually the other persons fault: FAIL!
