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.

potty fail

When you had to go potty really bad but there was nowhere to go and you didn't make it.

(continuing from my potty emergency definition): Little kid crying more:I can't hold it!!! Parent:yes you can use your muscles. Kid:I can't hold it!!! Parent:no you are not going potty in your carseat. Kid crying more:I can't hold it!!! I'm potty failing!!! Parent looking at kid:you did not just go in your carseat. Kid crying while going potty in carseat:Its too late I'm already going!

astro fail

Astronomical fail. Something going so wrong as to require an extra adjective (astronomical) to accurately describe how terribly awful something went. Can also be used to describe a person who fails at something or just life in general.

"Dude, that part last night was an astro fail."
"You clearly can't dance. Astro fail."
"You are such an astro fail sometimes."

Failed Fledgling

Adult children that briefly left home that couldn't make it in the real world and moved back into their parents home (nest)

Did you hear that the Cadman boy moved back home after he couldn't get a job after eight years of college getting a doctorate in Theater Arts? I feel sorry for them about their failed fledgling.

Turbo Fail

A "Fail" that is a bigger fail than a basic fail but not quite an "Epic Fail." A Fail that is rapidly barrelling towards Epic Fail proportion.

This drive-through is a turbo fail. The parking lot exit uses the drive through lane, and you can't see cars coming from the drive through.

fail pwn

A fail pwn is best described by using an example. Say a friend of yours requests back-up in any video-game, and you tell them you can't play because you are too tired; this would be a friend fail. If on top of friend failing, your friend gets slaughtered in whatever game they played and lets you know the next day about it, the appropriate response from the absent friend would be, "fail pwn," since by their friend fail, the other was pwned.

Jonny: Wow, you left me to die last night on counter-strike. We got completely slaughtered. What a fail.....

Sam: Yeah, I know. It was definitely a fail pwn.
