Look, I know this photo has already appeared on the site, but when you get your photo taken with Omar from The Wire, you have to MAKE THE MOST OF IT. Those are just the rules. Besides, if you’re going to dish it out (captions), you have to be able to take it (captions). Now, obviously, we know what I am thinking. Something along the lines of, “I know that you are an actor, and that we are standing outside of a charity event on a Saturday morning, but it is really hard for me to not think of you as a homicidal maniac. And, so, even though I am pretty sure you are not going to kill me, I am still actively hoping that you do not kill me. Or at the very least, if you do kill me, that you wait until after I post this on Facebook.” But WHAT IS OMAR THINKING?!

Winner will receive special recognition in this week’s Monsters’ Ball, which is almost as good as having your picture taken with Omar from The Wire. (Now I am rubbing it in! To your face!)

  3. Now if I had watched the Wire I would probably have some witty insight as to what Omar was thinking. Since I have not watched The Wire(YET, guys, yet.
