First!
I’d have to assume there was a banana peel involved in this somehow.
O’doyle Rules!
Billy Madison FTW!
Only snow, ice, and Seattle drivers actually. We’re horrible at driving on that white stuff we normally get only a few times a year.
Yeah, well, it doesn’t help that Seattle has what–26 snow plows? I’m from the midwest and live in the Seattle area now and I’m just awed–and not in a good way–by how King County has totally dropped the ball on this. All of this could have been prevented. It is reprehensible and uncalled for. And those who did make it out to make it more miserable for those who DO know how to drive, should have stayed home because they were the most miserable excuses of human beings I’ve ever encountered. No wonder Seattle is known as the least-friendly city in the US./end rant
I’m sorry. It just took over. I’ll behave now.
Not sure which Seattle you been going to, must not be on the one I go to. Yeah this winter sucked, but it does the same thing every winter, we get a week or less of really bad weather that turns to ice. And everyone complains about everyones driving.
I think they were trying to cross the Bridge to Nowhere…
With all the talking heads blathering this campaign season, it must have been a road to nowhere.
David, for the Byrne!!
Yeah, the took the wrong right turn.
Maybe the bus driver tried to do the noble thing, sacrafice himself for the good of mankind?
…or driven to the brink of suicide by the BS overload?
Hahah…the BS obviously exceeds the maximum capacity of the guard rail.
@rho
Merry Xmas, ya damned Texican! xxx
Even if ya think that boobies don’t make me smile xxx
Merry Xmas to you, too, Unc!
May your holiday be filled with great mammaries!
All comments much funnier than what really happened. This is what passes for normal driving in Seattle when it snows. There were 2 buses that crashed through the retaining wall and were hanging over the freeway – this photo angle doesn’t show it but it was a really steep hill they came down, covered in compact snow and ice. The buses were full of kids from Moses Lake, in central Washington, where they get serious amounts of snow and know how to drive in it, but the bus drivers were probably from Seattle. Our incompetence, let us show you it.
You’re such a LoL-kill.
Pundit Kitchen is serious business. Please refrain from making humorous or amusing comments. They will not be tolerated! There is a time and place for that sort of behavior…oh…wait…this IS that time and place!
Now, be nice…the admins do solicit comments telling them what really happened in the photo.
Pcflamingo didn’t say “too soon” or “you people don’t appreciate the seriousness of this grave situation,” etc. Many of us like to know what happened in photos like this one, and pcflamingo managed to put some comedy into the description, besides.
Hate to say it, but you’re guilty of LOL-kill fail. (I put “fail” in small letters to take some of the sting out of it.)
Fortunately I am an old fart with very thick skin, and not one to get my feelings hurt easily. Enjoy my comments or don’t – makes no nevermind to me
Thanks for the defense slan & rho
I hereby award you the ‘Order of the Rat’s Ass’… wear it with pride!
Yay! I love awards! Hope it goes with my tiara. Oh heck, I’ll wear it even if it doesn’t match. *dusts spiderwebs off tiara* Off we go to Christmas Eve church services! Bet they’ll let me sit in front because I’m so special.
Merry Christmas to all (you too Steve) and to all a good night.
Merry Xmas… x
*presents pc with a shoulder-to-hip sash with “SPECIAL” emblazoned across the front*
Have a great time, Dear One! *hugs*
yep, saw it happen. There is no reason they should of tried to go down that hill. people even tried to stop them from doing it.
Is this bus related to the FailBus?
It would seem so!
Maybe he wants to be a FailPlane when he grows up…
Awwww… Little FailBus wants to be FailPlane when he grows up. How adorable. I wonder how mom the FailBoat feels?
Snow and steep hills and moron drivers and inexperienced snow drivers and a city not prepared nor willing to cope with more than an inch of snow that melts in hours all combine to make quite the debacle. You really can’t fully understand how bad it all is until you experience it.
Oh, and I don’t get the joke with the picture. Am I over-analyzing “Straight Talk Express?”
“Straight Talk Express” was the nickname that John McCain gave his bus during the 2000 primaries. He continued the theme into 2008, however the sentiments behind it diminished. It was originally meant that reporters and journalist would be allowed on the bus and to ask any kind of questions they wanted and get an answer, but as the 2008 campaign wore on, less and less journalists were even allowed near the campaign and were often refused interviews.
Oh and McCain lost.
he WHAT!?
He called it the “Straight Talk Express”… I know. It’s a shock.
Huh huh huh, you said “bosom”.
Well, it could have said “the boobies of oblivion.” Which, upon reflection, may well have changed the nature of some posts.
Boobies!
“the boobies of oblivion.”
`
The rack of doom?
Hurmmmm…. booobies…. they make me smile…
Also not Unc.
“Stocking” puppet, I suppose, given the season.
Actually, that was me… boobies do make me smile
So boobies quash your sardonic tone. Interesting…
*pencil scritches on note pad*
I’m a man… and thus a weak, silly creature, susceptible to blandishments, flattery, and ladies turning up naked with beer and food…
Boobies may not be the meaning of life, but- aww hell, who am I kidding, yes they are!
So you won’t tell the naked ladies to throw out the beer, and come
when they have Jameson’s?
^come *back*, that is…
(interesting mistake, though)
I kinda thought Version1.0 was more interesting… gotta LOOOOVE the Irish…
Oddly, I have similar weakness though I lack a fondness for alcohol.
Jeez Rho, I though you knew how to use the girls better than that. Didn’t you know ALL men are affected by boobs? It’s like kryptonite. Even one of my gay friends is strangely fascinated by breasts.
If men had boobs of their own, they would never leave the house and everyone would work from home. Naked.
And more of your female friends than let on, I bet. :^) (linky)
(wrong linky, try this one)
Both were amusing to me.
Yay! How fun that something that I watched on the news happen in my city made it on here. I feel so ALIVE!
The caption is very appropriate, especially since McCain did sacrifice everything he has politically stood for in a vain attempt to win the White House.
It was only a matter of time before I saw this on here. The moment I saw it in the news I called it out. I turned to my brother and said “How much you wanna bet that’ll be on failblog within a couple of days?”
Okay, so it’s not failblog, but close enough.
This is just what I heard… the drivers AND the kids were all from out of town, and on KIRO radio I heard that there were actually people trying to tell the drivers not to go down that road.. which, excuse me but I think any moron would have been able to tell it was a mistake, because I’ve driven on the top road and looked down, it’s not as if you can’t tell what would happen. So… just a case of stupid, I think. but of course it wouldn’t have happened if we didn’t have all the damned packed snow.
I throughly agree with the descripion of I-5 as “the bosom of oblivion”.
Idiots. This is so unnecessary.
people, people, SO SAD! i only came on this website to see some fails i was told about but reading these comments actually makes me feel sick. HAVE YOU ALL NOTHING BETTER TO DO? a job perhaps?
yeeeesh.
