Here’s our next caption contest, since it’s Monday. This week’s photo features a couple of guys standing in the midst of firecrackers exploding. Or so it seems. The actual story could be anything, because you get to make it up. So write a funny caption explaining what’s going on. If nothing comes to mind immediately, let your mind wander for a few minutes while staring at the picture. And remember, you get to invent the story, so it can be almost anything you want.

before Ninja’s perfected the whole ‘disappearing in a cloud of smoke’ bit, the experimented briefly with ‘disappearing in a cloud of farts’.

Amazingly, Chang’s scooter still conformed with Chinese pollution regulations.

The elderly, washed-up “Important Evil Genius” had invented buttcrackers, which was like firecrackers you shoot from your butt. It was a bad idea…

Pedestrian safety is at an all time high with the advent of the disposable car. Upon hitting anything, the vehicle explodes into smoke.

Mango-Man has been eating at Taco Bell every day, and for whatever reason he was storing the leftover FIRE sauce packets in his pockets. I told him that was a turrible* idea, but he never listens to me… Now that he’s blown his britches out, he should apologize for calling me a stupidhead!
* I know how to spell it, but you’re supposed to say it that way — turrible (like Charles Barkley in the Taco Bell commercials).
Crappo the Clown
That guy is a fartcracker!

Weather for this morning: isolated patches of heavy fog.
