soft fail

Not quite passing, not quite failing. Enough to leave you wanting more, if any.

Ty recognized his attempt was a soft fail and wondered if there was a pill that could help him.

Fail tail

When a man attepts to cling to his youth by maintaining long hair in a ponytail. Usually he is also going bald and wears a ball cap as well.

Mark should quit clinging to scraps and cut that fail tail off.

fail bin

A fail bin is where features of an item do not make it to the final product. In modding forums it is where failed mods or games are seperated from the others.

*Mod Developer fails to make something decent*
User: This is crap, Im reporting it to a Moderator
Moderator: Another useless mod? Off to the fail bin!

butt fail

When your phone or device does random things that you didn't expect to the extend that could get akward. A true butt-dial but beyond the telephone.

As I had my phone in the shower a sundden drop of water launched Instagram and initiated a video call by mistake as I quickly attempted to hang up with soaked fingers... What a Butt fail!

Hulu Fail

When The Biggest Loser music comes to a momentous crescendo in preparation for a commercial, and the commercial doesn't happen.

Hulu fail... a horrible, horrible Hulu fail.

fail-fro

Curly hair on a bad day. Frizzy, all over the place, heat conductor.

I did my hair but once I got to the park, I was already sporting the fail-fro.
