jonathan, i need your help! (Everyone's Captions), Not Visiting Belgium Showing 1,401-1,450 of 1,615

[Phil]

"Come on, little man," prompted Louis. "Don't be silly. There's no harm in wearing that red shirt on the planet's surface."

That said, they proceeded to beam down.

[Sarah]

Louis' logic was impeccable. Unlike his lipstick.

[Jammies]

Louis' makeup artist laughed as she took her 7.5 million franc fee to the Caymans.

[Sarah]

Unfortunately, she took her money to the Caimans by mistake.

[Phil]

Dammit, where did I leave that Oil of Olay?

[Jonathan]

Phil wrote: "Dammit, where did I leave that Oil of Olay?"

¿Olive Oyl? ¡Olé olé y olé!




Fleischer Studios

[Cynthia]

That girl was sure skinny but boy, oh boy, could she dance!

[Phil]

It had been months since Popeye's last date, so even her extra two legs didn't keep him from hoping to get lucky that night.

[Sarah]

The extra legs really helped Olive cut a rug, but they definitely held her back in the cutthroat world of ballet.


Edgar Degas

[Phil]

He wasn't much to look at, but could Claude plié and chassé like nobody's business.

[Jonathan]

...and you should see him in a tutu--what great gams!

[Sarah]

(Not an actual entry in the saga: whenever we go to a museum with my stepfather, we wind up taking pictures of him posing as each painting and statue, including one of Degas' dancer statues. I should put one of those up here and see if you can spot the differences.)

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

Occasionally he just liked to slow dance.



Anders Petersen

[Jammies]

AMC rejected the proposed drama "Irritated Hominids" because it seemed too familiar.

Can you make him pose as the TC logo?

Some are more irritable than others.



H. R. Hopps

[Phil]

John Ashcroft's chief goon removes Lady Justice from the statehouse for daring to expose her breast. Justice, meanwhile, laments the breaking of her scales (during Ashcroft's time in office) due to extreme pressure on the right.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

Unable to locate his "Philistinism," "Evil," and "Utter Vileness" clubs, Günther settled for culture.

[Phil]

Curious George's rendition of "Beauty and the Beast" gave his brother, Boy, the original idea for his new effort: Culture Club.

[Sarah]

Boy had ulterior motives for starting the Culture Club. Where else could he properly launch his dream of becoming a pool shark?

[Phil]

Floyd was a real bully (dog) at the bar until the day he lost all his kibbles to the newcomer, a true pool shar-pei.

[Jonathan]

I love the basset hound with the eyeglasses, Sarah. Cassius Marcellus Coolidge knew his dog breeds.

[Sarah]

Yeah, that's totally Bo standing back there with the bowler and the bowtie too.

[Jonathan]

And I guess the German Shepherd is off duty from his security guard job, so he gets to relax with a beer.

[Sarah]

Jonathan wrote: "And I guess the German Shepherd is off duty from his security guard job, so he gets to relax with a beer."

But he still looks watchful and concerned.

[Jonathan]

Of course he's concerned. He has a two biscuit wager that Floyd misses the bank shot and sinks the eight ball.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

Whereas Estelle seldom was ever off duty.
[image error]

Nancy LeVine

[Phil]

Poor Estelle was always terrified that the next customer through the doors would think her name was Bell.

[Sarah]

So she took steps to make sure nobody would make that mistake again.


von perrichon

[Jonathan]

I'm not seeing the image, Sarah. Is it one of the illustrations from Hugo's Notre Dame de Paris?

[Sarah]

Yes. The flogging of Quasimodo.

[Jonathan]

That's a famous one. It's even available as a jigsaw puzzle.



Now for a caption...

[Jonathan]

"But it isn't actually a crime to wear linen after Labor Day," Quasimodo protested. The fashion police had gotten completely out of hand.

[Phil]

Hehe. I was going to say something about Santorum whipping Gingrich, but yours is better.

[Jonathan]

The fashion police faced serious blowback the next time around.



Unknown artist, Edo period, Hegassen Emaki ("Flatulence Battle"), detail from a scroll painting on this theme

[Phil]

Boy, this is the last time I invite Jim and Larry for a sleep-over.

[Jim]

Last time I accept too!

[Sarah]

#1584 Ando's team didn't need to see the scoreboard to know which way the wind was blowing.

[Phil]

The Romney team had no answer for the steady stream of (link NSFW) santorum flowing from the other side.

[Phil]

Sorry. I thought most knew the definition of "santorum" by this point.

[Sarah]

Phil wrote: "Sorry. I thought most knew the definition of "santorum" by this point."

If so, was the link even necessary? I decided not to click based on the fact that I did know the definition.

[Jim]

I don't know the definition, but will pass on clicking.

[Jammies]

Jim wrote: "I don't know the definition, but will pass on clicking."

What Jim said, especially after what Bun said!

Peer pressure. It can save your life.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

I do know the definition and will pass on clicking.

[Sarah]

Bun, just so you know the origin:
Several years ago, Santorum was on one of his streaks of eloquence, comparing being gay to bestiality and incest.
Dan Savage decided that if a member of Congress would slur part of his constituency so consistently, he would hold a contest to come up with a noun or verb to replace his last name.
The definition described above is what came of the contest. Savage's readers then bumped it up the search engines to be Santorum's number one hit.
Savage has said that if Santorum would donate $5 million to a gay rights agency to clean up the damage he has done with his crusade, Savage will take down the website.
I have no sympathy for Santorum's "Google problem" because he brought it on himself with his hypocritical, damaging, bigoted views.

There was too much dirt in the air to see the scoreboard anyway.



Charles M. Conlon

[Sarah]

#1597 Charlie Barnett's baseball-leapfrog hybrid league, Frogball, was shortlived due to a misunderstanding with PETA.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

The Peekenhaulen Pipsqueaks' habit of filling the bases with razor blades for the top half of the inning always made Jerry's slides a bit of an adventure.

[Jonathan]

Some slides are more dangerous than others.



Missy Meyers

[janine]

Frankenstein Jr. followed in his father's footsteps. Some described him as a wunderkind, others were not so enthousiastic. Especially after he brought the playground to life and the swingset started to swing, the slides started to slither, the merry-go-round went round the bend and the seesaw started sawing everything in sight.
