Failnade
In the Counter-Strike Source Mod known as Zombie Mod, an improperly thrown grenade (or any grenade thrown by a n00b) results in failnade, which instead of hurting the zombies, propels them forward into whatever spot you are trying to defend, resulting in failure.

Failnale
An unsatisfying finale. Riddled with plot-holes, dei ex machina (plural of deus ex machina), and various other writing blunders. The name is a portmanteau from the words "fail" and "finale".
Normally stemming from either a premature cancellation, or writers writing their way into a corner.
What makes a finale a "failnale" is completely subjective, and is a decision up to each person to make. However, there are times when the writing is so blatantly bad, only the most hardcore of fans would defend it.
Note : While it mainly refers to television programs it is also applicable to, books, video games, comics, and basically any form of entertainment that eventually ends.

Rachel : "So during the finale there was an ancient and powerful being, who just happens to show up to give the main guy a brand new power RIGHT when he needed it."
Steven : "That was total garbage! They didn't even foreshadow something as big as that. It just showed up out of nowhere! And did you see what they did to the villain?"
Rachel : "Are you talking about the convenient and sudden mental breakdown? It was only there so the good guys could easily win. What a cop-out"
Steven : "Yeah, it was a total failnale!"

failadelphia
The fact that all Philly sports teams often come so close to winning a championship, but fall just short every time. Philly teams haven't won a title since 1983; every city with at least three teams (except Cleveland) has had at least one of them win a title since then, even Phoenix!
The curse of Failadelphia was prevalent in 2004, as the Eagles and Flyers lost in their league semifinals. It even spread to other sports, as St. Joes basketball fell just short of the Final Four and Smarty Jones barely lost the Belmont Stakes in his bid for the Triple Crown.

womp
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
