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.

Re: Caption contest
I'm really getting tired of the ads we're forced to watch before the real video begins.
Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

"Wow, who would have thought you could still access 'Stupid Wombat Tricks' after all these years."
"Who would have thought anyone would want to?"

Re: Caption contest
This week’s belated winner is SGT tech guru ktulu, who coincidentally was responsible for the Stupid Guest Tricks outage today that delayed his coronation! Congratulations on your second win of this year, ktulu!
Honorable Mentions: Mike Reid: "Luke, what's this... Oh, change the channel. This is a re-run of Letterman's Stupid Human Tricks!"; DisneyMom: "Looking back to Episode IV, we found the inspiration for Jar-Jar Binks...."; Wayne Franklin: "I knew this franchise would go downhill after the Disney buyout, but wow."; and YANXWIN: "This can NOT be our only hope."
Thanks to all who entered! New picture coming Monday!

2014 CAPTION CONTEST, Week 15. How would you caption this picture?
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. No prize this week, other than the glory/infamy of being chosen!
