| #578 Posted 6 months ago | Reply | Okay, all I've found were pretty much "Snakes on a Plane" jokes, statements that the "guy" is Sean Connery, pointing out that they look like they're holding hands, and crappy photo shop attempts. How sad. Is this usually how the caption contest goes?
I'm not trying to be a dick, douche, or a prick, but the funnier ones are the one-liners. I mean, take this:After losing both his Millenium Eye to Bakura, and the duel to Yugi in the finals, Pegasus decided to go to Egypt with Kaiba Corp's BEWD (Blue-Eyes White Dragon) Airlines. There, he planned to plagiarize more Egyptian hyroglyphs and turn them into cards, thus compensating for his losses.
...Wow... You lost me around the plot synopsis... I don't think there's anything nicer I can say, so I'm just going to take a step back from this one so I don't get flamed for this.
This was my submission:"Things got very awkward, very fast, when Fidel Castro rejected Pegasus' offer to join the 'Mile-High club'..."
Allow me to analyze it. Sure, I made a gay joke--It was the first thing that came to mind. Never did I actually say "Gay" or make it stupid "Haha, he's gay! Laugh at the gay". The only mention of gayness would be the mention of the "mile-high club," which has only been used once or twice in earlier posts to my first one. Next, I left the quote off at the end of the first sentence, as the rest of my idea killed the joke. Also, notice I did not mention Sean Connery--I used Fidel Castro, which I have not seen been used. I, personally, don't think the man looks anything like Sean Connery, but bears a striking resemblance to Fidel Castro, without his hat (not that it matters, I just decided to add this in). I did not photo shop a hat onto him--that would be too excessive.
Here's one that made me laugh:Man next to Pegasus: "Fucking hell! Why is it so bright?!"
Pegasus: "Loreal darling, Cause I'm worth it"
It's short, clever, and doesn't kill the joke. Man says something, Pegasus says something. End. It doesn't continue with something explaining the joke--it ends at the best part, rather than the childish argument that could follow, and does in so many other submissions. Necrotism, I solute you for making me laugh... and for not photo shopping.
And, just putting this out there, most of the funny ones don't even mention things on the wing, with some exceptions (I'm not sure if Necrotism's counts as an exception, because it didn't address anything outside albeit the brightness. I don't know).
LK said he prefers text, and it seems few people respect that... ever notice that the text ones usually win? |

Sean Connery (bearded man): "Yeah. And I'm pretending to be a top British secret agent. Just like mine." |

Actually, the ones with pictures that HAVE to be pictures (rather than the picture with just text) usually win and some text ones get nominations.
And yes, all caption contests are like this. We get a bunch of n00bs who try once and never enter again every round.
But I must say, the only problem with:
Man next to Pegasus: "Fucking hell! Why is it so bright?!"
Pegasus: "Loreal darling, Cause I'm worth it"
is that I dunno if that counts as an abridged series joke, and those are guaranteed not to win. But I understand where you're coming from in terms of how to make a joke in the first place.
Though unfortunately, the thought put in your text will probably for the most part just go to waste; a lot of the people who posted here obviously didn't read the other entries so why should they read yours? :/
Mine didn't outright mention gayness either, even though it was implied.
Bad animation, endorsed by the Republican Party, denies Pegasus's right to position his legs however he wants.
It probably won't win because it's quite the American entry, but it's something. :/ |

| #584 Posted 6 months ago, in reply to post #578 by Kyhan | Reply | I agree that a lot of the jokes posted are really weak, and that they make up about 90% of the entries. However, I don't think that it justifies specifically pinpointing various entries and evaluating their faults and merits, and then explaining how yours was better. I'm sure it is, in your opinion, but the noobs who make entries probably think that theirs is superior to yours. People have different senses of humor.
I don't know if it's occured to you, but by encouraging others to improve their own captions, you've likely lessened the odds of your winning. Although, judging by this particular series of captions, it may be worthwhile just to see something other than "Ooh! They're on a plane! I am now obligated to make a Samuel L Jackson reference!" |

| #585 Posted 6 months ago, in reply to post #583 by iodashi | Reply | I wasn't trying to be cruel. What I mean, is that he was criticizing other people's submissions when he really didn't have the right to. Then he went on to say why his own submission was so great, when, in fact, it wasn't. It just seemed a little big-headed.
Edit: Yeah, basically what LordVoldything said... |

Sorry for making the pictures/post so massive though :x I'll scale them down next time. (Ah, managed to make it an animated GIF :). ) |

| #592 Posted 6 months ago | Reply | Well just read the past few posts and all i want to say is just stop and get on with making captions. This thread was meant to be filled with captions not criticism for captions. Everyone who's joined this site has the right to post their own captions regardless if they suck or not. (LK has to read all of them including the less humoress one's) They shouldn't be discouraged because someone else says theirs suck. Everyone starts out bad sometimes but gradually get better (for some people that's not the case). Not back seat modding but i think i'd be in everyone's best interest to drop the topic and move on.
My caption entry:
"First class isn't the best class when it comes to sitting next to peagasus" |

| #593 Posted 6 months ago, in reply to post #565 by JesusRocks | Reply | | You are quite right, mine was an entry and yours was a joke, and they were extremely different in execution. As such I apologize for challenging your post, my bad dude. |

| #594 Posted 6 months ago, in reply to post #591 by geekymcgeekstein | Reply | | Thank you. I spent a great deal of time and effort making it. Especially, "Carlin-ing" that guy to look like him. I am extremely happy with the results. Carlin was and quite possibly will be considered the funniest man to ever live. |
