EDITOR'S NOTE: This post is in response to an email FAIL Blog received 
from an attorney representing Guinness World Records Limited.

Dear Sir/Madam,

Thanks for writing us an email regarding the "Record Breaking Fail." 
Unfortunately, douchebaggy cyber-bullying emails will only bring upon you 
more shame on your house. I am also resisting the urge to write this email 
in ALL CAPS.

I believe it is the duty of FAIL Blog(TM) to call out organizations when 
they encourage the public to do such things as "Break the record" for the 
"Most Individuals Killed In A Terrorist Act." We firmly believe that our 
publication of your fail is protected under the concepts of fair use, 
commentary and non-trademark use. Please RTFM and we welcome you to teh 
interwebs.

Since we at FAIL Blog(TM) don't have a legal defense department, we have 
complied with your request to remove the trademarked term and logo from 
the original image. We have used the "naughty bits filter" on the image to 
secure your naughty, naughty, trademark assertions. However, we have 
posted your email so that our audience can see why we had to remove the 
name of the failer from the image. I hope that this is the outcome you 
have expected as now NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW THAT GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS 
LIMITED HAS FAILED.
