    How am I gonna mic spam obscenities to my enemies now!? D:

  2. Daifuku on November 16th, 2009 8:20 am

    People really need to learn the 2% rule. For those who don't know, that means you must be 2% smarter than what you are working with in order to operate it. This poor sod obviously failed those requirements.

    Use scissors wisely!

    FIRST!!!!

    Good Riddance I say. One less 12 year old screaming over Xbox Live.

    *note* I don't even own an Xbox, but the one time I saw a friend play something over it (halo 2 I think) was traumatizing.

  5. Ataeru on November 16th, 2009 8:35 am

    Hey if he is that much fail, then it would be one less troll on live.

  6. Fission on November 16th, 2009 8:50 am

    I think this shithead's a pretty cool guy, he wastes money and ruins his things and doesn't afraid of anything

  7. luigiforVP on November 16th, 2009 9:35 am

    can you hear me now?…WHAT?

  8. Hareoic on November 16th, 2009 10:28 am

    I guess he's not cut out for XBox Live.

  9. Cajun Raccoon on November 16th, 2009 11:07 am

    Zing!

  10. Miketuu on November 16th, 2009 11:09 am

    DO A DUCT TAPE ROLL, ew, ew, that's just gross.

  11. ThatOneDude on November 16th, 2009 11:30 am

    Sticky.

  12. Alpar on November 16th, 2009 11:39 am

    I can't tell whether the Female Gamers one was more fail than this or not…

  13. Captain Rehab on November 16th, 2009 11:52 am

    YES!!! as the former Ducttapeking4, I approve your suggestion to use duct tape.
    (results may vary)

  14. Taiho on November 16th, 2009 12:36 pm

    What if they don't let him burn in the warm flames? We don't have any more dry ice and the spam pits are almost empty!

  15. Taiho on November 16th, 2009 12:41 pm

    He's still smarter than my boss…

  16. Hareoic on November 16th, 2009 1:01 pm

    Oh, snip!

  17. Daifuku on November 16th, 2009 1:07 pm

    Bosses are technically allowed to be idiots. They can fire you D:

  18. Roflcopter419 on November 16th, 2009 1:09 pm

    Personally, I would have gne with "YOU GET NOTHING!!" but that's good too.

  19. Daifuku on November 16th, 2009 1:11 pm

    Obviously not. At least that has boobs :3

  20. Vabolo on November 16th, 2009 1:44 pm

    Package opening FAIL, mute button WIN!

  21. Vabolo on November 16th, 2009 1:49 pm

    YEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

  22. fmarulz on November 16th, 2009 1:55 pm

    not as painful as this…….. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJG0A3XVqWQ poor guy…

  23. tveye on November 16th, 2009 1:55 pm

    FFFFFUUUUUUU

  24. Daifuku on November 16th, 2009 2:00 pm

    But he has indeed lost, although he will not have a good day…

  25. Rogan on November 16th, 2009 2:27 pm

    thats why you use a knife and not scissors, but thats somethign a 12 year old won't understand. i'm glad teh mics built into my gaming laptop are high quality and i don't need a seperate mic.

  26. FoxyMayo on November 16th, 2009 2:59 pm

    FAIL leads to OWNED.

    Way to go, dumbass.

  27. AreUExperienced on November 16th, 2009 3:11 pm

    Inb4 ur doin' it wrong.

  28. AreUExperienced on November 16th, 2009 3:12 pm

    Inb4: "You're doing it wrong!"

  29. PhilHarrisMMA on November 16th, 2009 3:26 pm

    You're doing it…..dangit!

  30. PhilHarrisMMA on November 16th, 2009 3:31 pm

    Don't worry, we can fix it, using the handyman's secret weapon; Duct tape!

  31. PhilHarrisMMA on November 16th, 2009 3:31 pm

    AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!

  32. Bombahey on November 16th, 2009 3:45 pm

    Should of used a banana to open it…

  33. shadow649 on November 16th, 2009 4:04 pm

    I should be a boss then i'd be so great :)

  34. Badonk on November 16th, 2009 4:05 pm

    Its time this guy cut his losses.

  35. shadow649 on November 16th, 2009 4:05 pm

    This was more failure because the female gamers were at a disadvantage being female of course…

  36. MasqueNoMercy on November 16th, 2009 4:07 pm

    im gonna be honest… if youre so dumb that you cut the mic wire when trying to open the case… then you shouldnt be allowed to talk… ever… about anything

    just one of those guys that is entertained by what he says and loves to just squeal into the mic like an idiot… i mean come on… if youre going to annoy someone on xbox live, at least be entertaining about it! what is the originality in going "eeooooeeeeoooeee!" for a god damn match?! when i put my mic on, its to entertain the guys im playing a match with, not to entertain myself… or just to, ya know, RESPOND

    and thats what really grinds my gears

  37. shadow649 on November 16th, 2009 4:07 pm

    Lucky you! For that post you just won a crappy computer mike! *YAYS AND FIREWORKS*

  38. TheAceOfSkulls on November 16th, 2009 4:15 pm

    I don't know if this is truely fail material. After all, it's still about as good as the mics that come prepackaged with your 360 (I find it amusing that the newer the 360, the worse the mic).

  39. BlueChameleon on November 16th, 2009 4:18 pm

    May I borrow your earpiece?
    'This is sc' – Oh, it appears to be broken…

  40. MrRaccoon on November 16th, 2009 4:38 pm

    From the same guy that pierced his DS with the stylus

  41. Rogan on November 16th, 2009 4:46 pm

    mike or mic?

  42. EddRazzell on November 16th, 2009 4:55 pm

    GOOD DAY SIR!

  43. EddRazzell on November 16th, 2009 5:08 pm

    Your doing it wrong?

  44. meinmattias on November 16th, 2009 5:08 pm

    Snip-snap indeed! </Frisky Dingo reference>

  45. TCC on November 16th, 2009 5:28 pm

    yaknow what else grinds my gears? when I can't find the droids i'm looking for… -.-

  46. TCC on November 16th, 2009 5:30 pm

    I NEED SCISORS!! 61!!!!! O.O

  47. ArmyOfMidgets on November 16th, 2009 5:45 pm

    Now that's some CUTTING EDGE technology!

  48. Vabolo on November 16th, 2009 5:55 pm

    Everyone else does afraid of lots of things.

  49. Shawn Handyside on November 16th, 2009 5:56 pm

    *claps* WELL DONE

  50. MasqueNoMercy on November 16th, 2009 6:11 pm

    i know i does

  51. DClaw on November 16th, 2009 6:15 pm

    Daaaymn!

  52. MasqueNoMercy on November 16th, 2009 6:16 pm

    after your post i dont think you should be complaining about misspellings :-P

  53. DClaw on November 16th, 2009 6:19 pm

    First the headset…next the Xbox…THEN The WORLD!!!

  54. Rogan on November 16th, 2009 6:22 pm

    spelling counts when it changes teh meaning completly. i would not want a crappy "mike", what would i do with him? i could probably sell his organs but thats about it

  55. Dracojounin7 on November 16th, 2009 6:36 pm

    It's not just Francis who hates clamshell packaging.

  56. Leo058 on November 16th, 2009 6:45 pm

    Duct Tape solves everything.

  57. MasqueNoMercy on November 16th, 2009 6:46 pm

    … expertly responded sir… expertly responded

  58. Ataeru on November 16th, 2009 6:50 pm

    i could not think of anything else and Tenck beat me to my original thought. =P

  59. Vabolo on November 16th, 2009 6:53 pm

    Actually, I think this is the best thing you could do with an XBox live headset. That, and burn it.

  60. Someguy5031 on November 16th, 2009 7:18 pm

    What a shame.

  61. PhilHarrisMMA on November 16th, 2009 7:22 pm

    Actually, it was Wil Wheaton, so it makes it even more epic of a fail.

  62. Kergeros on November 16th, 2009 7:46 pm

    I actually believed I would be the first one to make a comment about how this meant one less little kid/asshole talking on xboxlive.

  63. ThatOneDude on November 16th, 2009 7:50 pm

    So very wrong.

  64. Marzen on November 16th, 2009 7:53 pm

    The puns! They burn!

  65. Vabolo on November 16th, 2009 8:04 pm

    :D *shoots self*

  66. pinecone2654 on November 16th, 2009 8:53 pm

    GAH I was beated to it D:
    good show ol chap if I do say so myself *raises champagne*

  67. Lohlwhaut on November 16th, 2009 8:55 pm

    You can have that or what's in the box? *opens box* It's nothing! You never choose what's in the box! YOU SO STUPID!

    Credits for the name of the movie.

  68. Lohlwhaut on November 16th, 2009 8:55 pm

    Yeah, it's about time he's at the end of his troubles.

  69. pinecone2654 on November 16th, 2009 8:56 pm

    Reminds me of the time I tried scratching the silver off my point card with scissors. I FINALLY guessed the code after some expert help from gamestop :P
    me fails :(

  70. Lohlwhaut on November 16th, 2009 8:56 pm

    Yeah… just saying, this shithead doesn't deserve to be compared like Master Chief…

  71. Jeot21 on November 16th, 2009 9:38 pm

    You sir, are and idiot.

  72. Hareoic on November 16th, 2009 9:43 pm

    Do you want me to cut it out?

  73. Marzen on November 16th, 2009 9:44 pm

    *eyes explode*

    Aaaaaaagh!

  74. Hareoic on November 16th, 2009 9:46 pm

    Have I left you in tears?

  75. Hareoic on November 16th, 2009 9:52 pm

    Would you say it's rive-eting?

  76. Hareoic on November 16th, 2009 9:59 pm

    And for some reason, THAT reminds me of when I first tried to get the Baten Kaitos Origins discs out of the case, but the thing that held them in place wasn't moving, and I was deathly afraid of snapping the disc in half if I tried to pull it out.

    Fortunately, I found out how to avoid that.

  77. Coodoo on November 16th, 2009 10:01 pm

    THIS is why you buy Bluetooth!

  78. Roflcopter419 on November 16th, 2009 10:06 pm

    Might also be one of the many people who smash their TVs with the WiiMote.

  79. Marzen on November 16th, 2009 10:11 pm

    Yes. Yes you have. :(

  80. Marzen on November 16th, 2009 10:11 pm

    Yes. Yes you have. :(

  81. Techercizer on November 16th, 2009 10:19 pm

    Ha Ha!

    Dangly Parts.

  82. Hareoic on November 16th, 2009 10:28 pm

    Fine, I''ll beshave myself for now.

  83. Marzen on November 16th, 2009 10:30 pm

    Alright, that's it, boy! You're too full of yourself! I'll need to cut you down to size!

  84. Hareoic on November 16th, 2009 10:34 pm

    Challenging me? That's shear idiocy!

  85. nobrain on November 16th, 2009 10:38 pm

    We need to cut out the grammar mistake in that sentence D:

    the comments for this pic are puntastic.

  86. nobrain on November 16th, 2009 10:39 pm

    I'd like a mike… so loney =(

  87. MasqueNoMercy on November 16th, 2009 11:11 pm

    ironically… i am mike

  88. Marzen on November 16th, 2009 11:19 pm

    Oof, that one sliced right through me! But you're the one who shall take the next slashing blow!

    (my god I suck at puns so badly)

  89. meinmattias on November 16th, 2009 11:28 pm

    I'd say cut out while you're ahead.

  90. meinmattias on November 16th, 2009 11:30 pm

    I tell you, your wit is razor sharp, today.

  91. Hareoic on November 16th, 2009 11:52 pm

    Toushave.

  94. Nick Soapdish on November 17th, 2009 12:19 am

    But that's Wesley Crusher from Star Trek who cut that! He's meant to be a super genius that has saved the Enterprise, which means…. *steps slowly away from Xbox headset*

  95. Nick Soapdish on November 17th, 2009 12:21 am

    He should pull the plug on his own accord before he gets his wires crossed.

  96. Nick Soapdish on November 17th, 2009 12:23 am

    Did someone says boobs? I came as fast as I could.

  97. Nick Soapdish on November 17th, 2009 12:30 am

    I will make it my life's work to remedy this problem and educate our youth. *Starts handing out sharp knives to 12 year olds*

  98. Davis007 on November 17th, 2009 12:35 am

    Meaning within the meaning?

  99. ProfessorLuigi452 on November 17th, 2009 12:38 am

    Watch out Wii….

    +1 for saying use scissors wisely, or -1 as usual.
    Oh well…

    Can you be my mike then?

  106. PhilHarrisMMA on November 17th, 2009 1:52 am

    Actor, played as Weasley Crusher on Star Trek: Next Generation. Big time gamer, I do believe.

  107. IndianCHAN on November 17th, 2009 1:52 am

    Carefully snapping the case and not the disk?

  108. Senax on November 17th, 2009 2:11 am

    I'd say Master Chief was pretty cool guy

  109. Senax on November 17th, 2009 2:12 am

    I see your here to replace Paiv.
    I CAN'T LET YOU DO THAT!

  111. shadow649 on November 17th, 2009 2:28 am

    Look on the minimap of course that should help you find them droids the use a sapper!

  112. Hareoic on November 17th, 2009 3:17 am

    No, you stick a finger in that opening in the middle, then pull the disc out. It loosens it somehow.

  123. Hareoic on November 17th, 2009 5:57 am

    Yeah, I know it sounds like a sexual euphemism. I couldn't think of another way to say it, on account of not sleeping for three days.

  124. Sinya on November 17th, 2009 6:29 am

    He is not lossing much anyways.

    Duct tape is man's fourth best friend, next to his super glue, hammer, and his dog ^^

  133. PhilHarrisMMA on November 17th, 2009 5:17 pm

    I say, you certainly have some sharp wit, but it wouldn't help if someone had you at clever pun point!

    ….Am I doing it right?

  134. Hareoic on November 17th, 2009 10:12 pm

    Meh, I think I've got an edge over you in this department.
