Friday Caption Fun, Round 8

halo 3 screenshotIt’s Friday, and it’s hot! We seemed to skip the mild spring season and go straight to the blazing hot summer. While I spend the entirety of my day holed away in the cool basement, I could use some entertainment. Before you caption this week’s screenshot, let’s recap last week’s hilarious captions. While it was difficult narrowing down the nearly 200 awesome submissions, these were my absolute favorites.

  • “After 1 day of being hired to re-design the latest MJOLNIR armor, Tony Stark was let go.” (-S-)
  • “This leaked screenshot from an upcoming Halo 3 expansion pack shows yet another Bungie-only armor permeation.” (petetheduck)
  • “What he did at the Halo 3 after party will echo through his life for years to come.” (aussie_spartan)
  • “You should see the shape of the ammo!” (soulofaqua)
  • “It’s plenty big, but how’s the… uh… “reload time”?” (Yellow Six)
  • “Although it proved completely impractical in every combat scenario, the entire team agreed that the Mjolnir mark VII armor was totally awesome.” (T Robert T)


Totally awesome indeed. Can you imagine running across that in matchmaking? It would be like triple wielding needlers but so much more amazing. While I fantasize about that, I will leave you with this week’s screenshot. My title for it is “Put me down!” but what’s yours?
