OK, another shot at something that can be captioned...

The object of this game is to come up with the most humorous, impactful, thoughtful, original caption for the displayed photo that will collect the highest number of 'likes.'

Submissions can be of any type - caption, limerick, de-movitational, poem, speech - whatever inspires you to write something for the photo.
Contestants may submit more than one entry but it must be in a separate post .

Important: whether you submit an entry or not, please 'like' any posts you feel deserve it!

Thread starter is the moderator and they must post their own original photo at the start of the thread.
In an effort to keep the pictures fresh, respondents have 1 week (see above) to submit their entries, after which time the number of 'likes' will be totaled to determine a winner. (One reason for the longer period is to give an initial writing stage that transitions into a voting stage towards the end of the week so that latecomers still have a chance to have their entries read.)

In case of a tie the thread starter must choose their favorite to break the tie. (It is somewhat ambiguous whether it is the total likes a person gets, or the single entry with the most likes that should be the winner, and we are leaving it up to each host to interpret as desired.)

The winner of that contest will be notified by PM by the current contest host and will become responsible for posting the next original work to be captioned. In the event the winner does not feel they have content they can use for the contest or for any reason they can decline via PM to the host and the second most liked entrant will be designated to host the contest

This installment of the contest will close on June 21, 2012.

Have fun and remember to check off some "Likes"!

The latest allegations of performance enhancing drug use were more than Lance could bear, so he walked into the ocean, never to be heard from again.

If you're from England, you can't ride the "Tour *to* France".

Looks like a mid-contest lull. Hope it picks up a bit in the next day or so :-)

A bit late for new entries, but make sure you registered the Likes. I'll vote on the tie-breaker if needed and notify the next host in 4 hours (9:30PM California).

Thanks to everybody. Bill is the next host!

We need some inspiration, I think...
