Some of us are staring down the barrel of an enjoyably long holiday weekend full of fireworks and barbecue food. Before we begin to officially revel in the patriotic festivities though we have to first make it through the rest of the day. Let’s burn some of that time by recapping last week’s funny submissions and then trying our hand at captioning yet another entertaining screenshot. Bonus points if you can do it while holding a sparkler!
- Brute: “You’re sure that If I can stay up here until we get to the third tower, Bungie will give me Recon?” Arbiter: “Yes, yes, just trust me. It’s in the bag!” (mendicantbias00)
- “So you’re saying that this is the location where the island in “Lost” is suppose to pop up? OMAIGOD, there it is!!!!” (retinence)
- “You missed the off-ramp for the airport; it’s that way. What kind of cabbie are you, anyway?” (Anton P. Nym)
- “In the year 2552, ghost riding would become more and more dangerous, but more and more popular.” (Jonathan Fisk)
- “Do the hustle! .Doot doo doot da doot da-da doot doot…” (ZZoMBiE13)
- “Brute: Ok Ok Ok. I know it was funny when I said it, but PLEASE do NOT do a Barrel Roll!” (Travis Jones)
- “For a laugh, Bungie decided how far players would go to grab the new hidden skull.” (Weths)
- “The new summer blockbuster – BRUTES ON A HORNET” (Hoovaloov)
- “Near, far, where-ever you are. I know that my heart will go on.” (SF Legend)
I included that last quote just for Louis Wu who happens love that song. Yeah, I’m nice like that, what can I say? It’s just the way I roll. While I enjoy my new ban from hbo, you can enjoy captioning this humorous screenshot that will probably resemble more than a few of you this weekend. I call it “Party On Chief” but what is your witty caption for it?

“Aww crap I didn’t die by the traffic cone, I’m certainly not going to have Recon..”

It was the morning after the annual Bungie Day Bash when MC realized that beer before liquor does, in fact, get you drunk quicker.

After days and days playing campaign to achieve the 7 billion kills,this Spartan found out that if he thinked that he was going to be able to do that,he probably was out of his mind.This picture just aproves it.
Well,bai bai!

Dispite what the criminal would have investigators believe, this was in fact an attempt to frame the traffic pylon for what was in fact, a really cheap kill.
What the criminal failed to realize, was that traffic pylons only attack in self defense.
Posted by caelan96 on July 4, 2008 at 4:30 pm
Spartan: “Sigh. Bungie will never give me recon.”
Posted by caelan96 on July 4, 2008 at 4:32 pm
Spartan: “Are you sure you can shoot this thing off my head with a Rocket?”
Elite: “Yeah Yeah Yeah. Just hold still and I’ll get my shovel ready.”

Who needs Recon when you can have a cone on your head?
Looks like another tequila sunrise.

The soldier was worried. Not only did he find that he had woken up with a traffic cone on his head, but more importantly… why did he have *two* assault rifles?
Posted by Cailus on July 5, 2008 at 5:01 am
In 2552, traffic wardens had…evolved.

1. “Years after Halo 3 many Spartans now found themselves out of work, this is one such fellow.”
2. Sort of a follow up: “Spurr change sir?”
3. Also a follow up: “Will Overkill for food.”
4. “When the Red woke up he wasn’t sure if it was a big party or an assasination but it felt like both.”

Timmy’s friends took the “sleeping with shoes on” rule to a whole new level by painting an entire spartan outfit on him last night.

Have a picture of you, passed out and with a traffic cone on your head, put on the web by your friends: PRICELESS!

Remember kids, even Spartans are not immune to the post-July 4th party hangover.
or
If you fail to get a single kill in any match, you gain a new helmet: the Dunce helmet.

getting recon: you’re doing it wrong
“yeah, right. first you tell me i have to save the world, then it’s how i’m gonna die all the time (still alive, duh). now i bet you’re gonna tell me that there’s a cone on my head and i’ve been out cold for the past 14 hours.”

After years of spectacle, those who continually tried to earn Recon by getting ‘Cwned’ would end up on the streets with nothing but Mark V and a terrible addiction to plastic.

“Wh-wh-what? Where am I? What happened to my armor? Last thing I remember is me, about to beat Frankie in a drinking contest for Recon, and now I’m here! And it’s morning! I must have been smoking some baaaaaaaad granola.”
OR
“I did do the nasty in the pasty!”
OR
“Cone, is the new Recon.”

The new ‘Traffic Cone’ Helmet soon far surpassed Recon in popularity. Spartans began sleeping with their weapons to prevent anyone from stealing it.

Even if I could dual wield two assault rifles I’d still get pwned by that 12 year old noob with a traffic cone.

though a lot had changed since the old days, the dunce cap was one of the items that never received much of an upgrade.

After being denied recon this Spartan got drunk and sadly tried to make his own custom helmet.

Timmy was never the sharpest energy sword in the barracks. But after stating in class that UNSC stood for “Uncle Newb’z Stinky Crack”, he got to spend some quality time with the dunce cap.
