bombed out 

To fail badly at something, while suggesting there was an element of unluckiness or inevitability working against you or the subject of said failure.

A slightly slicker way of saying 'epic fail' or 'botched' and a quicker way of saying 'crashed and burned' while lacking the culpability of 'screwed up'.
a: How'd it go with what's-her-name last night?

a: Oh... Wait, what?

X: How's the derivatives business going? Still trading CDS and sub-prime mortgages?

bombed out 

Another expression I made up from listening to too much hip-hop and use a lot. It means pretty much the same as "amazing", "cool", or "bomb-ass", but I mostly use it for describing sexual matters.
