Caption Contest 66 Winner!

Wow, there were some really funny entries for Caption Contest 66, thanks to everyone who took the time to make a submission! I think this is the longest Honorable Mention list I've ever had, but they were just that good.

Ultimately, of course, There Can Be Only One, and this week that One is first time winner Tim!

It probably says more about my completely random and odd sense of humor than anything, but that makes me laugh every time. The ejection nozzle on that "gun" just screams "TOAST!" to me now whenever I see it. Plus I love the idea of that expression on that "woman" as she wades into battle, flinging lightly crisped bread products willy-nilly. It walks that fine line between head-scratching legitimate war-cry and completely inane blather that truly is the hallmark of the Image Nineties. Well done, Tim! He receives his choice of either his portrait or any item he likes to be included in the final HM3 version.

As I said, though, many other outstanding entries were submitted, so without further ado I present your Honorable Mentions for this week:

  • Blue Blazer: That’s for wiping snot on the side of my pool.
  • Gero: “It’s lucky this gun is so big, because I can’t see a damn thing!”
  • Dennis: “Does my butt look in this”
  • Danny Beaty: Keep your “Watchtower” and give Jehovah my regards!
  • haydnc95: ‘If you look real hard…You may notice I have a gun!’
  • nick: when life hands you ammo, buy a bigger gun.
  • Gene: “It IS the size of your gun that matters!!”
  • Aaron: Yes this is a gun…..and no I am not happy to see you.
  • Deadeas: “Hey! The frozen pizza’s done!”
  • Patrick: I have what kind of envy now?!
  • Loki: Now that’s what you call a bullet-bullet!
  • GreenBat: I’ll let these guns do the talking.
  • Jake: You should see my big gun.
  • D: That’s not a hairdryer! THIS…is a hairdryer!
  • Kountkill: “Who said you can’t weaponize an E-Z bake oven?”
  • PRiegel: “Good Lord! I DO have feet…and I shot one off!”

Thanks again to all who entered!

    @Jeff: What’s the next contest?

  5. Tim says:

    Woo! Alright! Thanks Jeff and everyone! 😀

    I’ll have to think about my prize Jeff.

    Good job everyone 🙂

    Man, all day I thought the new contest post was up, and I was wondering why no one was submitting any entries. Went to a movie with my wife, came back, still no entries, and then it hits me (thanks to a poke from Hammerknight) — I previewed it but forgot to hit “Publish”.

    What an idiot.

    Sorry fellahs, it’s up now!

  7. Tim says:

    I think I’ll go with the .50 Caliber Smith and Wesson Model 500 Magnum, the strongest handgun currently in production.

    Here’s a rather large pic of one to make it easier for you Jeff 🙂

    Here’s another image of much better quality, but it doesn’t have the right nozzle. (The three holes)

    And just for fun, here’s a video of someone shooting the gun vs. watermelons. (caution video might be loud)

    Thanks again everyone 🙂

    @Tim: I’d take the Zeliska .600 over the S&W anyday, but it costs you $40 every time you fire off a round…

    Here’s the Wikipedia page:

    And here’s a video of a guy underestimating its recoil to hillarious effect:

  9. Tim says:

    Ah yeah, I’ve seen that video before. Pretty funny 😀

    No doubt that is stronger than the S&W (and more expensive too lol), but it’s a custom made weapon, Gero.

    There’s nothing wrong with that, I just prefer the S&W because it’s currently in production.

    The S&W can take down an elephant, I can only imagine what the Zeliska can do!

    All in all, it’s just a matter of preference for me 🙂

  10. Gero says:

    Yah, I’m not trying to say anything bad about the S&W 500, you don’t make fun of a gun like that! And being a production model does give it some pretty good advantages over the more powerful Zeliska, so unless I won the lottery, I’d pick the 500…

  11. Tim says:

    Yeah no doubt they’ve both earned mass respect, but I still can’t get over the massive price difference between the two. It’s insane!
