Friday Caption Fun, Round 70
November 13, 2009 108 Comments
Many of you have fallen victim to the latest video game bug often referred to as MW2 but if you find yourself still free of its grasp, perhaps this weekend’s Halo 3 double EXP offering will appeal to you. It’s called Team Control and it basically offers up all the gametypes you typically veto in one handy playlist. Tempting, right? While you weigh your choices, let’s go over last week’s entertaining responses and then we can caption another screenshot!
- “GET YOUR OWN TAUNTAUN!” (Pete Cooper)
- “Dude…NO ONE is going to believe that you thought it was a Brute.” (mendicantbias00)
- “Puma – 1, Zebra – 0″ (rowboat 000)
- “Planting the Magnum on the body was easy; the hard part was making it look like suicide…” (Tactful)
- “Having finally beat the dead horse until it disintegrated, Halo speculators moved on to a dead zebra.” (General Vagueness)
- “Early in Foe Hammer’s career, she wasn’t always as skillful in delivering Warthogs to the front line.” (petetheduck)
- “Is this zebra related to Dare? Just look at the size of its jaw!!” (cardo)
- “Nope, this one doesn’t have any candy either. I’m beginning to think Romeo was lying to us…” (Absolute Edge)
If Microsoft came out with a Halo-themed version of Viva Piñata, let’s just say I’d be first in line at the midnight release. Being able to feed and care for a garden full of candy-filled Grunts? Yes please! Sharks though? I feel my excitement wavering. Can you pick it back up with an awesome caption for this next screenshot? I guess we’re about to find out. Off you go!

“I’ll show you i can swim 10m with my gear on!!!”
It’s not the water that kills ODSTs that land in it….
Having just killed a Zebra, Dutch decided he might try his hand at jumping a shark.
Dutch may not have trained to be a pilot, but he sure knows how to drop in deep.
Hey-o!
y’know… go deep.
Shit.
Hey there, big buoy.
well played!
Win
Oceanic Diving Seamen Trooper…
I see what you did there (after reading it about four times) hah.
you know, i wish they would have put this sign up on the beach…
[in Aussie accent] “Now here we have the magestic, beautiful creature known as the Stingray… They are very docile creatures, wh-”
:Insert Jaws Theme Here:
The Jaws thing was unrelated BTW…
Being an Australian myself I say fuck you. Steve’s death isn’t something to be joked about.
I know… I was very sad when it happened, but it happens to everybody eventually…
However, I do apologize for that…
I understand that death is something that occurs to every single living person, yet you’ll find a lot of Australians considered Steve to be family, he was an icon, a role model, he was a true Aussie. Would you crack jokes about your family members dying?
We did joke about my great grandmother dying… She couldn’t for the life of her tell me apart from my cousin Tom. Despite the fact that he had red hair, was half a foot taller than me, and was a guy. We wondered if she would be able to tell heaven from hell.
He did apologize, so let’s all just put on a happy face. :D
I’ve cracked jokes about family membebrs dying.
I have too… I’ve also joked about my future one too…
Being an American myself I say everything can be joked about. hahahaha abortion
Also yay on getting my comment featured. :D
LOL… Sending babies to heaven faster…
That was a real joke someone told me…
I’m saying that it’s a Horrible joke… And someone told it to me…
Damn sensetive types… (Thumbed myself down too)
That’s funny, all of the Australians I’ve ever met said they had no idea who he was until he was already quite famous in America.
If an animal kills you, you were doing something to it that you shouldn’t have been doing.
Props, McGhee. For the apology and for the original post.
Thanks… (I guess)… To MW2 I go!
With a horrified look on his face behind the helmet visor, the Rookie realized the reason why Romeo was known as an asshole
The day started out bad for the ODST, and it just got worse from there
They weren’t kidding, the Flood ARE a bitch!
This week Crazy A 64 couldn’t think of a caption which probably wouldn’t have been picked anyway. But that’s okay because he knows bsAngel loves him all the same.
<3
I’m off the BOAT
I laughed out loud at that one. At my school we’ve recently begun saying that about anything. lol. I love it. And really good song too.
After five hours of swimming, the Rookie finally reached the ultimate out-of-map camping spot, only to realise he’d brought a laser instead of a sniper.
Dun-nuh….
Dun-nuh….
Dundundundundundundun
(We need a bigger boat!)
This ancient forerunner structure was built to honor the pokemon
You all laughed when I bought these ten meter long stilts.
Who’s laughing now?
Well, if we’re looking for a shark we’re not gonna find him on the land.
After tracing his genealogy, the Rookie decides to see if he has the swimming skills of his great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandfather, Micheal Phelps.
YEAH!
Here’s to swimmin’ with bow-legged women.
” I TOLD him not to rock the boat, baby!”
I guess they don’t allow one handed swimming …So Ill just do the breast stroke!
Ok, Dewey, if you stay until night falls, then mermaids will appear and grant whatever wish you have!
Roflz.
Then It’s Good I’m Not Wearing Pants!
Having gotten past the space trashcans, Steve was about to experience space buoys first hand.
The squad was still playing pranks on the Rookie, who of course, was still the FNG.
After hearing the story of Angel’s life in a previous post(starting with something wet, and finishing with something hard), Rookie knew it was time to jump in feet first and see where this would go..
“Oh, great; NOW they tell me…”
— Steve
5 minutes earlier:
- what does that sign say? on that buoy over there… let me borrow the sniper rifle to see
+ hell no you cannot use my sniper rifle!
- well then tell me what the sign says
+ well why dont you swim out there for a closer look?
- … okay, fine i will!
The ODST would raise his hand like the sign suggested but was………….busy with it below the water.
Let’s hope that these sharks don’t have lasers!
Nice Mr. Evil reference there. ;)
It’s DR. Evil. He didn’t spend 8 years in evil medical school for nothing!
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight
That’s odd, the GPS on my hud says this is Kikowani.
The GPS is a lie.
A buoy that’s 10m deep? but that doesn’t make sense!
Insert perverted 10m deep joke here.
The UNSC decided its anti-swimming policy needed to be enforced, with much more…desperate measures…
We ARE the desperate measures.
;)
lol
After spending an hour in the water looking for the ‘Failboat’, the Rookie realize that he had been tricked by his squadmates again.
Well, so much for free-style swimming! No front-crawl allowed!
“No sniffing your pits while swimming. Got it.”
“It’s a good thing I brought stilts!”
Just another day for Bob the ODST.
A Bouy and His Bob!
F7 plz
“Good thing I’m not a stick man”
Dang it! they put up a sign, how am I gonna tell the kids that they won’t be eating human anymore?
Why do I have to go and get the golf ball every flippin time??
One thing the Chief couldn’t do: Swim
Blame Stosh.
“I wonder why we can’t swim…oh well”
*continues swimming*
*reaches death barrier*
Why couldn’t they have put this closer to land?!
I swam out here to see what it said!
Oh. Crap.
Hmm, I wonder why it says thi-hrk! Bleh…
I found nemo!
Just keep swimming, swimming, swimmhrk! Bleh…
He, just goes to show you can’t swimin half ton armor.
Ah! The flood!
Hey, it worked for Steve…
Here be grunts!
Bouy oh bouy!
Note to self: Don’t make PMS jokes when travelling in an open-door Phantom.
Watch out florida. here comes ROOKIE!*jaws theme*
Ah, suicide the Steve way. How fun.
Hi there!
No waving!
WILSON!!!!
Dutch was fed up with smoke monsters, and knew that The Island would only plummet from there.
this was Romeos punishment for lying to everyone about Zebras having candy in them
Swimming. Ur doing it right.
Well, at least the water is warmer now.
Hey there Big Buoy how’s it goin?
Jesus FAIL!
“Now that i can see the sign…well i’m not gonna swim back”
“I’m such a rule breaker…”
Micheal Phelps seeks a new career.
Having realized the hilarious joke romeo had played on him, the rookie felt insecure he had not packed his water wings before the drop.
gone phishing
(get it one of bungie’s sayings)
Aww, beat me to it.
(look down 2 posts)
Upon reaching his destination, the Rookie figured out that what looks like sand isn’t necessarily sand,
(the water looked like sand to me at first =\ fail)
“Lesson: Don’t fall prey to Phishing scams.”
“WARNING: IF YOU CAN READ THIS SIGN, IT’S TOO LATE.”
Mickey watched from the safety of the shore as Dutch took back his previous words of “I’m keeping my boots on the ground”.

The ODST began wondering why the UNSC had coined terms such as “Navy”, “Marines”, and “ships”. He soon realized that sharks were as formidable to humans as humans were to the Covenant.
I suppose this redefines “helljumping”, huh? You watch… just like Valhalla, there’s some unexplainable cliff IN the water that’ll cause that ODST to plummet.
Turns out that some of the new water-signs, based on every-day road-signs, weren’t a succes. Especially the “No Swimming” sign, usually found near ponds, was a complete and total disaster.
Danger: David Hasselhoff.
“I can only hope that my emblem doesn’t have yellow on it… Ah crap.”
“There he goes again…doing his underwater aerobics workout, RIGHT NEXT to the sign that tells him not to. I swear, someday that’s going to catch up with him.”
Sadly the Rookie realized to late that the bouy wasn’t in fact an ancient atom bomb.
ODST thought she would swim out 10 meters and act like a shark, but not until she got there did she realize that no one would be out there
FAIL.
Dutch – “So I’m guessing those fins I saw weren’t Grunts”
ODST – Top Gun Re-enactment was a popular way to waste a Friday evening.
“Goose!”
Obeying Warning Signs: You’re Doing it Wrong
Even when he’s in deep, the Rookie always wears a helmet.
