Even Pink was saying "Epic Fail" on Radio 1 the other week in her interview. I think it must be some American slag.

FAIL.... Don't really know where it came from - seems to be a continuation, or evolution of "owned" (or pwned/pwn3d) which used to cover pics like the above.... Now "fail" seems to be the "in" word....

Still fucking funny when used in context with pics like the ones above tho
