Remember me when you are rich and famous.
I’m so excited I’m about to drill a hole into the floor.
Hey guys. The Caption Contest from last week over at Stereogum is still going on, for some reason. It’s a bloody back and forth battle that makes no sense to me, but is oddly fascinating to watch. But this past week it appears someone ran a campaign to get their comment a bunch of votes, edging out the previous lead horse which was our very own Top Knot. Since every dirty tactic in the book has been pulled in this contest, I thought I would point this out to you guys in the hopes that 15 or 20 of you could go over and reset the balance in Top Knot’s favor.

Make it happen guys. Don’t let some punk get away with creating an account, making a single comment, and then getting all of their friends to simultaneously vote their comment up while voting every other comment down simply to grab some swag prizes.
No. You should just plan on having this continue to happen frequently and without warning for the rest of your life.
Good idea playing The Offspring over top of her screams for help and frantic claims that she changed her mind. It makes the video seem a lot more fun and far less litigious.
I had a hard time recognizing that as Joaquin Phoenix. I knew it had to be, because of his lip, but I had to look it up to be sure. In just a few short seconds he succeeded in convincing me he was a different person. Good job.
‘Hyde Park on Hudson’ doesn’t make any sense at all historically. First, it isn’t even set in the right time period. Second, Benjamin Franklin was never president.
Well… There were a pile of foam cubes next door. This was a pile of cardboard boxes holding my very excessive nail and glass collection.
I actually still have the theme song for the ALF cartoon memorized and it pops into my head more often than possibly any other song. It’s a tragic tale and I’m sorry to share the burden of my pain.
This. I haven’t seen the movie yet, but they showed her pointing pistols and giant robot dragons in the trailer and I can’t get past that image. Every time someone tells me how great the movie is I ask them to confirm or deny that she points a pistol and the giant robot things, and when they say “well, yeah.. I guess…” I make a frowny face.
There is seriously almost 2 more weeks for that “contest” too. It’s a hilarious train wreck of sad clowns and slowly deflating balloon animals.
Anyway. Whatever it is, I’m sure it can be summed up with a very clever visual metaphor.
Also, that is a horrible album cover, and I hate it worse every time I go back to check the comment section.
I’m fighting an uphill war over at Stereogum to make sure you win the Dirty Projectors Caption Contest too. That thing is the most brutal competition I’ve ever seen held on the internet. It’s like watching a city of people try to outrun a flood as they all actively smash each other in the shins with sticks and debri.
I mumble comments at the TV all the time when I’m alone. Usually they are like, “Oh, you gonna eat that cookie now. Yeah, eat that cookie. What’s that outside, go check that out. Whoa! Watch that car. Get back inside! Quick they are coming! Wait, where did the plate of cookies go? Stop moving buddy, where did the cookies go? Why are the cookies gone? Who wrote this garbage?”
I agree and also disagree about the clapping at the end of movies thing. I think clapping is silly, because we aren’t a bunch of walrus or something so why are we flapping our arms into each other to communicate? But I do think shared expressions of enjoyment should happen at the end of group activities like movies. I suggest barking and running in circles.
This girl will no doubt learn a great deal of bad habits from her parents. For instance, I can just picture her as an adult, getting her own house and moving her couch in and then mounting a TV next to it in such a way that she has to stand in the middle of the living room to watch because it’s impossible to see from the couch.
I like to cover the left side of the screen and read the description of what they are wearing, and then try to compare reality to what I was imagining. It’s a fun game you should try it.
Picture This:
“Colours are my current obsession. Before I wore only black but now I’ve found colours with the help of this pullover. I own 7 leather jackets. This one I bought last summer. The shoes I’ve sprayed myself with silver spray.”
My favorite punk band of all time? Easy. Devo.
I would also like to point out Magic Andy’s magic hand, and invite you to imagine his magic band.
As an engineer, I strongly disapprove of their rain gutter system. Also, that back porch was poorly design and that lady is probably really hurt, but what is up with that gutter system? You route everything into an ashtray or something? You guys go check on that drunk lady please, I’m still in a little bit of shock because of your exterior duct work.
She is complaining about having to poop, but she seems much more preoccupied and uncomfortable about that catheter they have her hooked up to.

Seriously. I read that response, like, five time trying to figure out if he was joking or not. Does he really believe what he is saying? Avatar 2, Avatar 3, Avatar 4, Avatar 5… What is he even talking about?
Ah man. No way. For every one vote that we throw at it, that dude gets five more and downvotes Topknot. I’m convinced this dude Diego4533 is cheating with Proxies or something. It’s a shame too, because his Seinfeld caption is ridiculous.
Oh, well. We have until next Wednesday to turn things around, but I’m fairly certain no matter how many unique votes we log Diego will magically find more.
