caption contest, guys standing by exploding fireworks

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.

caption contest, Star Wars, evil donations

This week’s caption contest has a Star Wars theme.   It appears that the Sith Lord and an Imperial Stormtrooper are either selling something or asking for donations.  Who knows what’s really going on.   But that’s where you come in.  Figure out what’s happening, and write a comment about it.   Of course, your explanation / story doesn’t have to be anything realistic at all — just funny.

caption contest, public toilets with audience seats

This week’s caption contest features a very unusual photo — a covered stage that’s outside, with benches for the audience, and there are two toilets on the stage.  The sign on the wall says “WC”, which I suppose means water closet.  There’s also a window with bars.  I have no idea what the actual context is, but that doesn’t matter because we’re going to make it up.   So write something funny to explain what’s going on here.  And remember to keep it clean.  You can use potty humor, just don’t use vulgar language.

I realize this caption contest is a little easier than some, but don’t let that hinder your creativity.   Here’s some ideas for exploring different perspectives.  Who designed this and why?  What kind of story is told on this stage?  What would the audience think?  What would be a good advertisement for this play?  What might a critic think?  You could also make up a story to explain it, whether entirely fictional or using your friends or incorporating current news events.   There are a lot of possibilities with this one.

caption contest, firefighters watching fire tornado

It’s even hotter than normal for August here in central Arkansas (as the last post so deftly explains), so I thought this week’s caption contest could have something to do with extreme heat.   I chose a picture of firefighters watching a fire tornado.  You get to write a caption explaining how this happened, or what the people are thinking, or what the cameraman is looking at instead of the fire tornado, or make up a story that’s somehow related to what’s happening in the photo.  Use your imagination…  see if you can surprise me…  🙂
