The site is just a chronicle of mundane to epic failures, from inflatable dartboards or flyers for "litercy" seminars. For the sake of categorization, there are a lot of confusing packaging and unfortunate product names, creative English translations, indictments of poor parenting and unintentional phallic imagery on the site. Some post videos that could double on America's Funniest Home Videos (with ER ending its run, perhaps Uncle Jessie could take over Bob Saget's old, old job): this sleepwalking dog is adorable (I'm sure he recovered fully) and I must've seen 10 surveillance videos in which people apparently forgot to put their vehicles in Park.
But I'm ashamed to admit that it was this video that literally caused me to fall out of my desk chair. It's horrible to laugh at the victim of the finale, but he acquits himself nicely by refusing to let this incident pass without comment.
The site has some Wins, too, choosing to highlight the odd positive moment or victory in a sea of faildom, but the Slate article gets it right: schadenfreude is the main event because it's just too satisfying. Enjoy the failure!
