Friday Caption Fun

29 02 2008

Previously our Friday procrastinate-until-you-can-sneak-out-of-work-early activities were Rorschach Inkblot Tests using the global heatmaps from Halo 3 as our images. The answers always varied from deeply insightful to side splitting hilarious, and I loved reading through them every week. Unfortunately there are only so many maps and we happily burned out way through them. That means it’s time for a new Friday activity.

I spend a decent amount of time these days scouring through screenshots for halo3screenshots.com. I find myself coming across ones that are so funny, they seem to be positively begging for a caption. Thus begins Friday Caption Fun. I’ll give you a screenshot, you come up with a caption (or 42 if you are NsU Soldier!). Just like with the Rorschach Inkblot Tests, I’ll do a recap on next week’s post of some of the funnier submissions.

Here is this week’s screenshot, which was taken by AusQB. I call it “oh shit” but I know you can do better. Hit me with your best captions!

One wonders if going the other direction when deciding in school on either Chef at Che’ Manufique, or Universal Merchant Marine, would have been a better choice.

“Crap! Which ones are sticky: the grey or the pretty blue ones? Cause if it’s the bouncy kind, I’m fine, but if it sticks I’m screwed. Damnit, why can’t I remember this kind of thing when I need to! I shouldn’t have slept through so much of Basic Training. I could have been a good student. But no, I had to be known as the ‘Party Spartan’ and be out all night, every night…”

Following the RvB reference

Little Spartan soldier
Sat on a turret,
Sniping the noobs far away.
Along came a spider
Who sat down beside him
And blew Spartan Soldier away.
