It's back thanks to all you fools bugging me about it. The Caption Contests have been very popular with the forum in the past...but they ended up being very time consuming for me. So I'm bringing it back on a bi-weekly basis instead of every week. Let's see how it goes. All your precious scores have been reset, so say hello to a clean shiny new slate! This way it'll make it easier for new kids to join in on the fun.

Here we go!

Not tonight. Your breath stinks of kebabs and I can tell you're drunk again because I heard you knocking shit over. Fuck off.

I could have sworn I saw a shadow of Tom Cruise's profile just a few seconds ago

"What am I supposed to do with all those 400 copies The Final Frontier CD's now?"
"You think you've to it tough? What am I gonna do with those 1500 Predators in my closet?"

Oh and I'd like to point out I don't like this idea of a reboot. With Olivarez long gone to Valhalla, I was the master.

I think I can put this back on a weekly schedule. I wrote a little Python program to automate the process. I just pick the images and winner quotes and boom. As crazy as it sounds, it took just 30 minutes and it should significantly reduce my time investment to these bread and circus events! ;-)

The downside is, try not to over format your captions because it will throw it all out. But if you must...I can copy by hand where necessary.

Goodnight, you princes of Maine. You kings of New England.

I didn't even know it was from that movie. It was vaguely familiar, that's it.

I Googled it. It seemed the more intelligent thing to do than ask for a LMGTFY link.

"Good night!" he would call. "Good night--you Princes of Maine, you Kings of New England!" (That thing Homer had held in his hand was no prince--it hadn't lived to be king.)

Then, bang!--the door would close, and the orphans would be left in a new blackness. Whatever image of royalty that they could conjure would be left to them. What princes and kings could they have seen? What futures were possible for them to dream of? What royal foster families would greet them in sleep? What princesses would love them? What queens would they marry? And when would they escape the darkness left with them after Larche closed the door, after they could no longer hear the retreating squeaks of Nurse Edna's and Nurse Angela's shoes? (That thing he had held in his hand could not have heard the shoes--it had the smallest, most wrinkled ears!)

For Homer Wells, it was different. He did not imagine leaving St. Cloud's. The Princes of Maine that Homer saw, the Kings of New England that he imagined--they reigned at the court of St. Cloud's, they traveled nowhere; they didn't get to go to sea; they never even saw the ocean. But somehow, even to Homer Wells, Dr. Larch's benediction was uplifting, full of hope. The Princes of Maine, these Kings of New England, these orphans of St. Cloud's--whoever they were, they were the heroes of their own lives. That much Homer could see in the darkness; that much Dr. Larch, like a father, gave him.

Princely, even kingly behavior was possible, even at St. Cloud's. That seemed to be what Dr. Larch was saying.
