Caption contest
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.

After General Zod was sentenced to exile in the Phantom Zone, he was secured inside of a basketball scoreboard.

I don't have any ideas yet, give me a day. For now, I must complain. It is week 47 and there was no Star Trek reference. I expect one on week 74.
WAIT. I do have an entry.

My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?

Re: Caption contest
CAPTION CONTEST, Week 48 – Hunger Games: Catching Fire is out, and I'm pretty sure I'm misreading this situation. How would you caption this picture? Comment below!
The same pic will show here, on Facebook, and on The World of Wombat. I'll repost the pic with my favorite caption on Friday. As always, no prizes, other than the glory/infamy of being chosen.

All those that would like to wear my goofy blonde wig, hold up your right hand. Those that don't , hold up your left.
