It’s Friday! Time to play!
My friend found this picture on photojojo.com. I loved it because I could actually think of a caption. (I really am terrible at this game. It’s good that you all are better than I am, or Fridays at Zebra Sounds would really be a drag.)
Here you go, kids! Caption this!
Please donate to the cause: If you have a fun picture (or a great link to fun pictures) for “Caption This,” send it along.

And now for something completely different… As fun and quirky as The “Blog” of “Unnecessary” Quotation Marks, I love the blog of Passive-Aggressive Notes - “Painfully polite and hilariously hostile writings from shared spaces the world over.“
Ogden tries to focus on their work, but Mary’s utilitarian fashion sense drives him wild. He’s always been a sucker for sensible shoes.
“I still can’t figure out how you are going to mount this on your scooter.”
ribbed, for her pleasure!
Judy,
Caption?I have none….at this time….so members of the press…my comment….is ….no comment….. I did just figure out CMW’s connection to you though.
*sad* I’ve been coveting him…..now I’ll have to stop.
and “ribbed, for her pleasure?” nice.
Oh wait, I might have one…
“Are you getting all this Miss Simpson? To continue….’So therefore my conclusion gentlemen, is that the reason the new and improved himulator failed was NOT, as you suspected a problem with the improved design….. it was this little piece of MC Hammer’s parachute pants that somehow got into the air intake manifold.’”
woman: ” i know, i know, you have a big rocket sir. you’ve told me before.”
You’d think, since we are the smartypants in this outfit, that they would approve our request for casual dress Friday, but noooo!
kid
I spend each Friday just waiting for John’s captions. I can’t help myself.
man: “despite it’s rugged appearance, this rocket is actually a delicate piece of complex machinery. in fact, it’s this tiny piece right here that makes the whole thing work and… oops!”
“I wonder, is she enjoying this as much as I am?”
JB, Seriously. What woman hasn’t had to say THAT before? (Good one!)
“Shirley, why don’t you ever watch while I touch it?”
Better:
“Shirley, why don’t you ever look at me while I touch my rocket?”
I haven’t nothing to add (surprisingly being the geek that I am.) but I am lovin some of these captions today. Got some good belly laughs outta me today! :-D
“Peggy takes copious notes as Walter attempts to win the most complex version of Operation ever produced by Milton Bradley.”
Me too! Belly laughs, I mean. I love Annette’s evolution of a caption. The end result is excellent!
Craig, yours was there when I updated with my comment. Bonus! I think you have a knack for captions.
Shanna, you killed me on that one, and Craig, I loved yours too. So many creative minds, so few pictures.
cmw
“complex version of Operation ”
LOL oh man, that’s funny. I wonder what the buzzer would sound like?
Ahhh Dr. Morgan thought to himself, Mary has a little of the Captain in her.
What are we doing tonight Professor?
Same thing we do every night Ms. McGillicuddy. Try to take over the world!
Powered by 224 Apple iPhone 3Gs’s and one burley hamster with an attitude, The famous physicist Dr. VonBang was going to show those poindexters at Stanford what happens when you double dog dare the wrong person to create a Weapon of Mass Twitter destruction!
I absolutely love JBs and Craigs is brilliant. Unfortunately most of mine ended up being older references from the 60′s. Originally I thought them relevent because of the black and white nature of the photo, but I found myself with that profound fear of a repeat of last month where a person asked me “Who’s Steve Martin”. So no ancient references :)
Who’s Steve Martin? That’s crazy talk! Actually, I laughed at all of yours. Apparently, I’m as partial to 60s references as I am to sexual innuendo.
I canned the 60′s one. First one is current pop commercial. Second is 90′s cartoon Pinkie and the Brain. Last one is oldest. Early 80′s reference to the movie A Christmas Story.
I’ll give you one of my 60′s.
Take down this letter Ms. Scott. “Dear Prudence, won’t you come out and play?”
Couldn’t twist it into anthing though. None of the other Beatles Lyrics worked either. Ahhh comedy is hard sometimes :)
sexual innuendo caption:
“V-I-B-R-A-T-O-R…OK, I wrote it down like you said. But there is no way I am using that thing, no matter what you call it!”
nice guy caption:
“eggs, butter, milk, cereal…he will never know I tuned him out hours ago…chicken, rice, toothpaste…
I never saw Pinky and the Brain. How sad, right? I have heard the theme song. I would say that Dear Prudence, come out to play could be followed by “why don’t we do it in the road…” but that’s just too racy for me to say.
Which is why I get to tell Bobby I’m blushing…
Hey Judy,
I want to start captioning things on Fridays – I could not figure out where to submit the caption…Any pointers? Or maybe the comments here go to the caption? Just was not sure. Love your site and congratulations on the prospect if getting the novel published!!
Hi, Margaret! You did it just right on today’s. It’s just that the moderator function was turned on, so I had to okay it. You should be fine from here on. The captions just show up in everyone’s comment box, which is nice because you can scroll through all the clever! So glad you came by and I’m super happy you’re going to play!
