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.

Brad found out the hard way why wobmbats, unlike birds, are not normally seen perching on wires.

After his monorail surfing stunt and feeling cocky, his luck soon took a turn for the worst as he decided to try to tap-dance as well...

Tired of the Flying Wallendas getting all the attention, Brad forms a new group, the Flying Wombats.

Alternate Entry (same theme): "Now you tell me it's the Flying Wallendas. I thought it was the Flying Wombats!"

I normally don't jump into the middle of these threads, but after several odd entries, I think a diagram may be necessary:

Carry on.

Yes, and I fear I started it. For that I offer my most sincere apology. Something obviously short-circuited in my brain.BRWombat wrote:I normally don't jump into the middle of these threads, but after several odd entries, I think a diagram may be necessary:

I have also engaged in revisionist history and corrected earlier posts.
