    Sorry it should have been catching exceptions at the end obviously...

  • Balazs - 13 years ago

    I would suggest C@(-H
    Which could be read "catch" which is a reserved word in some programming languages for catching expression.

  • Colin - 16 years ago

    Can't see that any look like the fail whale. How about (_"_)>{

  • Mark Salinas - 16 years ago

    What about the birds?

  • Kathleen - 16 years ago

    I second satoko's (__•)

  • Boydchan - 16 years ago

    I like this one 'cause whale look like sick when it have "+" instead of eyes >>

    Hil's gets my vote too, but the one with the simpler tail:
    (__-)

  • Julie - 16 years ago

    Absolutely going with Hil's. It represents FW best. (__-){

  • *Stina - 16 years ago

    I vote for Hil's also. (__-){
    The hyphen eye makes it super cute.

  • eric - 16 years ago

    what about this G>{ ... maybe not. Hil's is good

  • josh - 16 years ago

    Here's my vote:
    (´__){*

    The asterisk represents one of the birds, the rest is self explanatory.

  • Hil - 16 years ago

    it depends on the font, sometimes the simple tale works better: (__-)

  • Liz - 16 years ago

    A combination of the last two. You need a tail and an eye...and a smile would be nice, too!

  • Lisa Creech Bledsoe - 16 years ago

    I think you could add an eye to the third choice, possibly. (*_)

  • Kyle - 16 years ago

    I like B because it has an eye. It makes the beloved falewhale feel friendlier.

  • Joel - 16 years ago

    I too think the third is the best option. That big blank with the

  • Melissa - 16 years ago

    Simplicity and a tail are both key elements that C possesses. A whale without a tail is just sad.

  • BondJaneBond - 16 years ago

    None of them truly capture the magic of the fail whale, but "C" is simple and do-able for the masses.
