more fail, owned and pwned pics and videos I’m a regular reader of Failblog, but mostly because I like to feel better about my position in the food chain. So, I was a bit surprised when I saw that someone had submitted an image of Sucklord’s Gay Empire Stormtrooper as a ‘FAIL’ yesterday. Of course, it [...]
