    Did we not learn anything from the great Dan Quayle potato fiasco of ’92?

      OK, correction. Apparently, whoever is hosting the pix for the site is the real FAIL. Despite a broadband connection, the pix apparently took something like two-plus minutes to show up at all. Might still be a FAILure of the web programming, though…

      Aaaand we have a winnah! All around web design FAILure.

      1) unspecified posts should be added at the end, not assumed to be a response to the first comment. That’s outright stupid.
      2) pix take an eternity to load/display
      3) Javascript engine goes into overdrive at any action. Double FAIL.

      You might WIN on English but you’re FAILing on programming.

      Oh, lovely. NO comments get sent to the correct place.

      4) Better and better. FAIL, FAIL, FAIL.

    I think what they are trying to say is there are three different kinds of pickled fruits.

  3. Django on March 18th, 2009 at 8:43 am

    No, I think them mean it’s one type of fruit that visually looks like three types.

    • Kimizzy on March 18th, 2009 at 3:54 pm

      Ah, yes. Good point.

    I’m most concerned about the Irish jello, actually. Is it just green, or is it actually spiked?

    • Anonymous on March 18th, 2009 at 12:19 pm

      That’s what I was wondering. I say, spiked.

    I’m concerned about the fail in the title. The diminutive for the male name Patrick is Paddy, not Patty. I saw this several times yesterday. Patty is a female nickname. So unless St Patrick has some issues s/he’s grappling with of which we’re not aware …

      Thank you wildmustard for pointing that out! I changed the title. :)

    Anytime, admin :-) Because otherwise this menu is a lovely cornucopia of misspellings, incorrect adjectives (mashed, not mash, potatoes, and corned beef, not corn beef … oh, let me get on my soap box about old fashionED anything, long sleevED shirts, sweetENED tea …), and even a capitalization fail (Irish jello, not irish!)(whatever the HELL Irish jello is …). And yet they used the apostrophe correctly, at least in St Patrick’s name (if not in the poor shepherd’s pie).

    • admin on March 18th, 2009 at 12:45 pm

      Haha, exactly! ;-)

      Well, just move to Southern Indiana, where the locals call it “Unsweet Tea”. You can’t get “Tea without any sugar” because it confuses them.

      The misspelling of shepherd (especially when talking about breeds of dogs) is one of the words that annoys me. I don’t know why it irritates me so. In any case, shepherds don’t “ard” sheep, they herd them.

      • Damien on March 18th, 2009 at 3:18 pm

        This was actually taken in Southern Illinois at a restaurant called Dolly’s Place, so you aren’t far off with the Southern Indiana idea.

    • Kimizzy on March 18th, 2009 at 3:52 pm

      That and last time I checked there is no such word as “mashpotatoes.” I think the person who wrote this should go read a dictionary every once in a while. Or at least a menu. Not asking much… no Hemingway or anything. Just. READ.

    well, cows eat corn, don’t they? thus corn beef. just like corn chicken.

  8. Udoli on March 18th, 2009 at 7:04 pm

    I once knew a shepherd named sheppard and he had a sister who had a pie. I ate some of it. Yum!

    Is this site actually supposed to be SHOWING anything?
    .
    .
    I’ve pulled it up in two different browsers and I’m not seeing anything but the adverts and the comments/replies.
    .
    .
    The biggest FAIL apparently is in the site’s overall functionality.

    • itsjustme on March 19th, 2009 at 1:16 pm

      Funny……I don’t have a problem with the pics loading on my end………maybe your setup just sucks:)

      • Amanda on March 19th, 2009 at 3:49 pm

        I agree. I have no trouble with this site.

  10. SQURRLZ on March 19th, 2009 at 12:30 pm

    THAT IS FUCKING HILLARIOUS
