Failure to plan is planning to fail!

The most clever comeback a teacher will ever make. It will be used against you if you forgot to do something.

Mr Broadhead: Where is your commerce book?
Yasmin: I forgot to pack it this morning.
Mr Broadhead: Failure to plan is planning to FAIL! :O

Single Point of Failure (SPOF)

The term used in an organization that is commonplace for no apparent reason to explain why leadership only designates ONE person in the whole organization to be the Point of Contact to be able to fix something that is broken. When this is person or entity isn't available the whole organization - or the specific people affected by the problem are at the mercy of this person returning to work to solve the problem. Single Point of Failure or SPOF is commonly used with another term known as FUBAR - (Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition) because no professional organization would allow a Single Point of Failure to exist.

I'm sorry but we can't fix your computer today because we have a Single Point of Failure (SPOF) in that department. Pay no attention to the man behind the green curtain - he can't fix your computer - the only person who can do that isn't here today. You might want to try and click your heels together and say three times - "there's no place like home - there's no place like home - because if you were at home your internet service provider has an entire staff that is interchangeable and capable of completing most any IT-related task.

Al Gore Failure Beard

An Al Gore failure beard is the cloak of shame worn by men who have been unemployed for over 90 days and don't have any job leads. I also used it for hopeless people and institutions.

"My dad's job search isn't going well. He is rocking an Al Gore failure beard."

"My buddy got laid off last year, and spends a lot of time on LinkedIn. He'll have to shave his Al Gore failure beard when he finally gets an interview."

"My flight was canceled last night, even though we only had an inch of snow. American Airlines is the Al Gore failure beard of the airline industry."

also in geography, dump failure is used to refer to bad waste disposal

I just had the biggest dump failure.
