Friday Caption Fun, Round 85

Bungie Team MeetingMany of you are off enjoying the PAX East festivities. While I am headed out of town today for a vacation that will thankfully span several days, unfortunately my destination is not on the Atlantic side of the country. The only downside of vacations is the distinct lack of gaming so I expect those of you that are home for the weekend to make up for my online absence. You are welcome to do that in Halo 3′s Living Dead Double EXP weekend playlist or you can just pop in Viva Piñata. Either or works! Before you do that though let’s recap last week’s witty responses to our replacement picture depicting a standard Bungie Team Meeting, and then we can pick up where we left off with the captioning of one of our customary Halo screenshots.

  • “Thank you everyone for coming to this meeting on such short notice. Now, I’d like to address the prankster who thought it was funny to put a dildo, a stick of butter, and a picture of Bill Gates in my top desk drawer and tell security I had a gun in there. Thanks, security won’t even look me in the eyes when I walk in anymore.” (xxxJL AUDIOxxx)
  • “And this gentlemen is a PowerPoint on a ‘girl’. Take notes, you’ll need them.” (OwlAssassin)
  • “Guys, I need to tell you guys something very important…. I Lost The Game.” (SoC BrownSound)
  • “Right after the annual Pentathalon, Bungie has a lesser know competition simply known as “Man Couch”. It’s basically a timed event to see how many men can be crammed onto a single couch, all the while being commentated by the boss.” (borrowedchief)
  • “Ok guys… Hawty McBloggy is gonna take a screenshot of us for her caption contest soon, so let’s just sit around and do nothing so no one can think of a halfway decent caption.” (A Deaf Boy)

Princess Peach Was Always a Bitch Anyways

Princess Peach Dog Costume

The last time we saw Parsnip, an adorable dachshund who enjoys modeling in her spare time, she was dressed up as everybody’s favorite pudgy, Italian plumber. This time around though she’s sporting something a little more gender appropriate. Showing off an adorable pink dress complete with a matching crown, both of which can be yours for $16.50 USD, this Princess Peach pooch getup has the power to instantly transform your dog into the biggest tease in the neighborhood. Unless I live in your area of course. Then she would have to settle for being the second bitchiest creature around.
