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.

"I've always treated you just like my other kids. I feed you, I house you, I keep you safe. Now that you're five, I expect you to start picking up after yourself. Here's your rake."
Re: Caption contest
Move to Florida, they said. You'll never have to rake leaves in Florida, they said...Wombat was really growing to hate his friends.

The new HGTV show, Gardening with Marsupials, did not quite turn out as expected.

A GMO with its own rake. Good. A GMO with its own rake and lawyer. This time science has gone too far.

Re: Caption contest
It wasn't the air guitar Brad wanted, but it would have to do. Someday, the Vocal Majority would allow him to use his air guitar. Someday.
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?
