explanation of Global Warming for children

There were some good (verbal) responses on our recent post with the child-like explanation of nuclear meltdown, so today we’re going to show a video that explains what causes Global Warming.  This is a simplified version, at a level anyone can understand.  (So if you still don’t get it, you’re obviously making things too complicated.)

FYI, this is from an episode of Futurama, in case you were wondering.

caption contest, Darth Vader on a swingset

We missed last week’s caption contest for various reasons, so perhaps this week’s should be double the awesome?  Well, I don’t know about that, but how about one with double the Darth Vaders?  It’ll have to do.  There’s some potential with this one, for both puns and Star Wars references, as well as original humor.  So put your thinking cap on (or take it off if that’s how your randomness flows better), and come up with something funny to explain this picture.

caption contest, multi-car pileup

We now bring to you the next regularly scheduled caption contest.  BTW, just an FYI, it can be fun to glance at the previous caption contests (which can be easily accessed with the Say What? link).  You may think of a new caption because your perspective and mindset will be slightly different each time you view them.  And sometimes you can take a theme from one and apply it to others (like how it’s all Mango-Man’s fault, for instance).  Just a thought…

This week’s photo features a multi-car pile-up on the highway.  It’s up to you to figure out what happened and/or why, and to deduce what people might be saying about it.  (Just keep it clean, as always.)

caption contest, boy with boombox

It’s now time for our weekly caption contest.  This week’s photo features a boy holding a dual-cassette jambox / boombox, with a couple of cans of spray paint.  Behind him is a prodigious amount of graffiti.  The young man is also making some attempt at being “cool”, wearing sunglasses and making some sign / symbol with his hand.   As always, there is no factual context behind this picture, so you get to make it up.  You can explain what he’s thinking and/or doing, what his peers think, or what has happened or is about to happen.  Basically, you can make up whatever you want.  The only rules are: keep it clean and make it funny.  Have fun!
