Epic Fail Guy or EFG is a meme in which Anonymous will draw images of a stick figure and imageboard roleplay this character going about various methods of failing completely. This minor forced meme grew into a meme of epic proportions when in one adventure he pulled a Guy Fawkes mask out of a bin. This image of a stickfigure wearing a mask much like in V for Vendetta became a meme and from then on most depictions of EFG will involve this mask.

In threads that the OP or a majority of posters are undergoing complete and total failure, posting a picture of EFG is considered enough to tell Anonymous that he is failing the interbutts.

As Epic Fail Guy is a simple stick figure, many others have posted their own tales of fail using this character. Threads involving these stories usually turn into a complete mess as people post random EFG images in there and argue about whether the OP is the original EFG artist. These threads are best described as an epic failure. Oddly enough, Jamie Demeter theredskull fancies himself to be THE EPIC FAIL GUY in IRL.
