Caption Contest! Let's have some fun!

BentFork · January 15, 2008 1:19PM

Let's have some fun. Below is a picture (doctored up of course) I will be awarding a prize for whomever submits the "Best Caption". Now before we get into the rules of this contest, I bet some of you are asking, "Is this another one of those lame VTH 3 Bag O' Crap Contests"? Absolutely! The winner gets a Bag O' Crap. How lame! Look at all the good stuff LM and Goldrush give away! Well folks, since last year's winner never posted the goodies in his Bag O' Crap there's not much I can say. I guarantee there's treasure in it. But if you don't want it, that's okay. I understand. If you pass up a Walker, it makes me no nevermind as us hillbillies say. Some of you might be familiar with Woot's $5 Bag O' Crap. This is kind of the same, only it doesn't cost you.

The rules are this -
Anyone can participate.
One entry only. If you think of a better one, edit your original.
Doctoring up the picture is optional.
Jerry, Rob, and Phut must further doctor up the picture just for the heck of it. I like that actually.
Keep it clean.

I'll let this run for a while. Here's your challange!

AM Edit- I see 2bits posted his beer can caption while I was photo-editing my picture, so apparently great minds think alike.

<< You might be a redneck if there are Beer cans buried 5 feet deep in your back yard!! >>

Put HIS caption with MY picture, and it's even better!

<< "Steel toed boots, why do you ask?" >>

Edit: Whoa! That was quite interesting timing and thinking (compare with LM's post above)

BentFork · January 17, 2008 2:24AM

The schtick about the steel toed boots reminded me of an episode I once saw and eventually became part of. I went hunting to one of my regular spots years ago and happened to see a newbie hunter getting really PO'd. He'd hunt for a while, dig and dig, and eventually start cursing and throwing things. Then he'd take off again and the same thing would happen. I intro'd myself and we got to talking about detecting. He complained that everytime he'd go to recover his target he'd have trouble finding it.

"My machine must be messed up", he said.

"Oh, why is that?"

"It must not be ground balanced right."

"Oh?"

"Yeah, I keep getting false signals in every handful of dirt I pull out of the hole".

"Oh?"

"Yeah. I pull a handful of dirt out of the hole, pick up my machine and wave the coil over my hand. The machine beeps, but the object is never in the dirt. Why's that?"

His problem was he wore gloves and rings on both hands. I'm sorry to say it WAS funny. He'd go from

to

The lady next door said what ?

I swear Im not trying to tunnel into her bathroom !!!

marym · January 17, 2008 9:05AM

Ok, here it is:

"Explain this to me again? If Mary gets into round 47 of the next virtual treasure hunt with target number 93, and G-Man can find me with his detector even though I'll be friggin 3 feet underground by the time we're done here, she finally wins the grand prize?"

Ray261 · January 17, 2008 9:19AM

But honey, I know grandpa buried his gold around here close.

phut · January 17, 2008 11:08AM

<< Good news honey,............I found your ring!! >>

Bad news is... I seem to have lost mine now..

marym · January 18, 2008 8:05AM

Tim & Erik, VERY funny stuff!! lmao

pocketpiececommems · January 18, 2008 1:31PM

If I had the photo that Lord Marcovan has with the cans I would use the caption, "With Aluminum cans at 50 cents a pound I've got a gold mine."

Riccar · January 19, 2008 4:52PM

Here ya go PPC (you get full credit for this one... I was just goofing around with a paint program)

lordmarcovan · January 19, 2008 5:23PM

Gee, great. Now I have a malignant-looking tumor on my head! Thanks, Rick!

Riccar · January 19, 2008 5:38PM

Does it hurt much?

maybe we could use one of these to cover it up...

I swear I picked up the molten nickel core of the planet with my new Earth Buster XXII.

BentFork · February 1, 2008 12:39AM

I've decided to make a poll out of this thread. I'm going to pick my top 4 and you folks can pick the winner. That's more democratic.

Since I don't "do" Super Sunday, that's when I'll put the poll up.

In addition, I'm not really going to send a Bag O' Crap to the winner this time. That was just a ruse to lure you in. Yeah, right! But I will post Sunday what I will be awarding.
