Caption contest

A place to be entertained. Videos, jokes, games, and more.
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.

Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Apparently the new hot toy this year is the "Tickle me Wombat" which utters the phrase, "I'm gonna sue you!"

I'm never gonna be able to watch one of those commercials again without giggling madly. I hate that damn Elmo, especially the Hugs one. I mean, really, if your kid needs a hug, hug him yourself, don't buy him a scraggly red muppet to hug him for you.

The look of disdain was clear on Santa's face that some child had asked for a "womkey".

Santa had found places for nearly everyone on the Isle of Misfit Toys, but had to bring one back...

Whoa Whoa! I get a "tip of the hat" but ktulu gets the prize?

That's like saying Cinderella has the shoes that fit, but the ugly stepsister goes to the ball.

Yeah, sorry leftcoaster, you were the first with that reference, but I thought ktulu's was the funnier line. You may appeal the decision, however; official protest forms are available on the third floor of the the United Arab Emirates consulate in Kiev. Ask for "Jeff."
