FAIL: Borat Song Plays Instead Of Kazakh National Anthem [VIDEO]
28 Mar 2012 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
At a recent sporting event in Kuwait, a Kazakh girl won the gold medal. But check out the awkwardness when the Borat parody of the Kazakh national anthem is played during the ceremony! Some weeks earlier, Ricky Martin’s “Livin’ la Vida Loca” was also played instead of the country’s anthem at another sporting event. Both incredible moments can be seen after the jump.

14 Mar 2012 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
Fashion students at Chengdu University of Technology in China recently pumped all their creativity and innovation into a theatrical lingerie show displaying various wonderful designs, except…er, wait, scratch creativity and innovation off the list because each and every one was a Vicky’s Secret knock off! FAIL! Full gallery after the jump.

Hillary Clinton’s Fashion FAIL At The G20 [PIC]
22 Feb 2012 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
This weekend, the G20 Ministers of Foreign Affairs held an informal meeting in Mexico. During this time a group photo was taken of everyone wearing tropical, weather-ready white cotton shirts. Everyone except Hillary Clinton, that is. Clearly her memo was lost in the mail as she rocked up in a lime green blouse. Awkward group photo after the jump.

Viral Marketing Fail – PETA Taking Flack For New Pro-Vegan Ad [VIDEO]
15 Feb 2012 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Yesterday PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) launched their new viral campaign to encourage people to “go vegan”. Unfortunately for them, what they apparently intended as a tongue-in-cheek ad has sparked outrage and concern by painting a sad picture of domestic abuse and violence.

Bloggers Paid To Promote Google Chrome
04 Jan 2012 by Jasmine Stone / 2 Comments
Earlier this week it was revealed that there are literally hundreds of bloggers who were bribed to promote Google Chrome and to claim that their blog’s were “sponsored by Google”. Google’s response has been to point the finger at ad agencies.

High School “Prank” FAIL Sees Children Make Out With Parents
19 Dec 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 3 Comments
I believe the expression, “oh, America!” is very appropriate here. The principal of a US high school has been forced to apologise after a recent pep rally “prank” provoked outrage. This after a video surfaced online of team captains being blindfolded in front of their classmates and told to wait for a kiss from a “special someone”. After literally making out with this special someone, it is then revealed to them that it was in fact their mother or father.

Rick Perry: Parodies And Protected Posts
12 Dec 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
It didn’t take long for the internet to respond to Perry’s ridiculously offensive ad. Besides over 120 000 dislikes on YouTube, here is a taste of the many fine parodies his bigoted nonsense stimulated, while his new videos have comment and rating functions blocked.

K53 FAIL: Weltevreden Park Driving Test Gone Wrong [PIC]
01 Dec 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
This picture was taken in Weltevreden Park, Johannesburg, earlier today. The events leading up to the picture being taken are not known, but I think it is safe to assume that the driver did not pass his or her K53 test.

BlackBerry Services Collapse Worldwide
10 Oct 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 4 Comments
Millions of BlackBerry users from all over Europe, Asia and Africa have been without online services such as email and BlackBerry Messenger for the last few hours. A spokesperson for RIM has not yet passed comment, but we do know a major fault at the RIM data centre in Slough is responsible.

“Leisure Diving” Is A Thing Now [PICS]
18 Jul 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 2 Comments
The world of ridiculous internet trends is a highly competitive one. There’s photo bombing, fail videos, planking, and most recently owling – all highly popular in their day, but now quickly becoming old news. I’m told the current meme flavour is called “leisure diving”, and involves jumping into a body of water whilst striking a “leisure pose” in mid-air. Examples inside.

Awkward: BBC Introduces Rupert Murdoch’s Biographer As A Baseball Expert [VIDEO]
15 Jul 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Michael Wolff is a very influential American journalist who has lately been doing a lot of television interviews. This makes sense, seeing as he wrote a biography of media mogul Rupert Murdoch two years ago, titled “The Man Who Owns the News”. But see what happens when the BBC wrongly introduces him live on air as Ben Walker, baseball editor for the Associated Press! Awkward.

News Host Remembers No Terrorist Attacks On US Soil During Last Bush Era [VIDEO]
15 Jul 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
Fox News’ Eric Bolling recently decided that one of the guests on his show was being too mean to George W. Bush. So he spoke up in defense of the weapons of mass destruction eff up. Try spotting the slight error in this statement: “America was certainly safe between 2000 and 2008. I don’t remember any terrorist attacks on American soil during that period of time.”

News Reader FAIL – Drops F-Bomb Live On TV [VIDEO]
10 Jun 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
All this newsreader had to say was, “more teens are having luck finding summer jobs”. Instead she managed to replace “luck” with another word. This one starts with a “F” and rhymes with “luck”, as well as “buck” and “duck”. Trying to keep her composure whilst realising her EPIC FAIL, however, is even more priceless. If you are at work, keep the volume down.

Fox News FAIL: Photo Of Tina Fey In Sarah Palin Report [PIC]
07 Jun 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Wow. How something like this even happens, I’m not even sure. But, it is both hilarious, and an epic fail. During a Fox News report on 2012 American presidential candidates, Fox News displayed a picture of Tina Fey playing Palin on an episode of Saturday Night Live instead of showing an actual picture of Sarah Palin. Awkward.

You Shouldn’t Laugh, But This Domino Fail Is Epic [VIDEO]
27 May 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
The poor dude in the video you are about to see was attempting to set a new world record for the amount of dominoes stacked on top of each other. He needed 13 482 to be the domino boss, but only got to 13 043. His reaction when realising he came 97% of the way, whilst watching the other 3% flush down the toilet, is… unmissable.

12 Apr 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
An Indonesian lawmaker quit politics yesterday after he was caught watching pornography on his tablet computer during a session in parliament. At least this guy was awake, unlike some of the pictures I’ve seen taken during our parliamentary sessions.

How Not To Win Elections #435 – Campaigning At Funerals
22 Mar 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
You have to give this guy some credit for thinking out of the box – posters tied to lamp posts are getting old. But choosing a funeral to tell everyone to vote for the ANC is just plain wrong. Especially if the woman in the front row just lost her husband and seven-year-old triplets all in one go.

People Are Awful

Last week, malibu showed you how awesome people can be – which is great, but we strive for objectivity here at 2oceansvibe, so here’s a video showing you some of our recent failures. Remember – the only thing better than seeing some cool people is seeing how much cooler you are than other people.

US NEWS STILL FAILING AT GEOGRAPHY
18 May 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
With the Soccer World Cup just 24 days, four hours and 20 minutes away, it’s so comforting to know that our beloved RSA is getting the accurate international press coverage that we deserve. I mean, take this, for example, courtesy of Chicago’s WGN news.
