True Definitions of EPIC FAIL

After picking up the phrase from someone else as all good slang sayings go, I recently discovered that EPIC FAIL is actually a real official dictionary-ized word. I was shocked at first, around my little corner of the world, it's pretty original for my friends and I, but then I found some of the definitions quite amusing. Here is the official definition of EPIC FAIL:

Epic Fail - adj.noun.
1. Something that can be seen as a complete and utter failure.
2. The highest form of fail known to man. Reaching this level of fail means only one thing: You must die, or the world will fail itself due to such extreme level of failage.
3. A mistake of such monumental proportions that it requires its own term in order to sucessfully point out the unfathomable shortcomings of an individual or group.
4. Complete and total failure when success should have been highly easy to attain.
5. When an attemt at creating an entertainment product fails so badly it incites anger and/or unintentional comedy.
6. An attempt to endorse Fanta and homosexuality at the same time on an internet message board that leads to ridicule
7. Similar to fail, but at an even larger, more pitiful scale. Sometimes so pitiful or pathetic, some will either sympathize that person or will not say anything, due to the fail being so large that words cannot describe it.
8. A failure so abysmal it is epic in scale.
9. Failure so big not even light can escape it.
10. George W. Bush's Presidency
11. A term used to describe an unsuccesful attempt at achieving a goal, usually with unintended hilarious results. While a 'fail' can be defined as simple disappointment, an 'epic fail' is of monumental proportions. A term most commonly used by keyboard warriors of the internet age that choose to argue on the website Youtube.com, whose lives could be summed up as an 'epic failure'
12. When someone attempts to be cool or do something for another person's entertainment and truly screws up their task into something that results in anger, uncontrollable laughter, or pity to the other person.

And now for the best examples of Epic Failure.
