Fail Whale

Extreme fail, usually said after something you strongly disapprove of.

Fail Whale

You start to do an awkward turtle but instead of using your thumbs, you accidentally use your pinky fingers. This is a social fail and so to save embarrassment you pull your hands back in with both your thumbs and pinky fingers clenched in. This is the Fail Whale.

Sophia: OMG Rhys! You know Siobhan?
Rhys: Yeah she's a total social hand grenade.
Sophia: I know right? Well she just did a massive Fail Whale and everyone decided to throw her into the ocean. How ironic!
Rhys: Alanis Morissette butchered that word. Never speak of it again.
