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.

Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

Re: Caption contest
When I saw darph's post, my first thought was, "I hope Wombat picks that one!"
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
2014 CAPTION CONTEST, Week 2. This is totally something I would actually do, by the way. (Pose for a photoshopped pic, not handstand on an insanely high rock, that is.) 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.

It was then that Brad came to the conclusion, his zen master had finally gone too far over the edge.

Re: Caption contest
The degree of difficulty score was very impressive, but the Russian judge deducted several points because Brad's left foot wasn't pointed.

While Brad showed off his superior balance skills the locals below collected his change, car keys and iPhone.

Superman was in such a rush to save a bus load of seniors on their way to a Lake Tahoe casino from being crushed by a gigantic rock that he neglected to remove his civilian clothes.

I sure am glad I wore the extra strength anti-perspirant today. I hate underarm sweat marks.

Re: Caption contest
This was a really tough week – I laughed hard at almost every entry, so picking a winner wasn’t easy! Way to bring the funny, everybody – but in the end DisneyMom’s Lion King reference took the prize. (Poor Simba!!) Congratulations, DisneyMom!
Lots of Honorable Mentions: hhsrat: "The degree of difficulty score was very impressive, but the Russian judge deducted several points because Brad's left foot wasn't pointed."; Don Kistler: "If this doesn't get me in the front row, NOTHING will!"; Jay Marsh: "Why did he go straight for the 'triple dog dare'?"; and G Scott Lewis: "This is what Wombat will do for a Klondike bar." A special Honorable Mention goes to hobie16, who rotated the picture 90° clockwise and provide this caption: "Superman was in such a rush to save a bus load of seniors on their way to a Lake Tahoe casino from being crushed by a gigantic rock that he neglected to remove his civilian clothes." And finally, a slightly dis-honorable Honorable Mention to Alan AJ Irby, who referenced Baylor’s bowl drubbing: "So Brad, what'd you have to do after losing that bet for the Fiesta Bowl??"
Thanks to all who entered! New picture coming Monday!
