I said "worried", not that I'm not willing to use that pic.
Let's just run a crowner and settle this proper-like.
demonstrates as well!
I downvoted Yoshi, in one pic he's using the tongue for eating and in the others the usage of the tongue (as opposed to, say, a proboscis) isn't as obvious as in the Schlock pic.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanThis looks fairly decisive.
A shame, because I would've preferred the non-webcomic image (we seriously use a lot of those... I suppose Mario's not exactly underrepresented either, but still).
And before anyone points out that overuse is not the primary criterion on which to judge images: I know. But when the images are (personally) on equal footing with regards to the proper criteria, it seems fair that it should enter consideration.

Moon◊I'd say we've got consensus. The new pic's up, potholed, and tagged. Caption or no?
"You're welcome!"
Found a Youtube Channel with political stances you want to share? Hop on over to this page and add them.That crossed my mind but under the circumstances, it doesn't seem like it would fit.
"This pistol tastes like loser."
Bigotry will NEVER be welcome on TV Tropes.That being said, does the deliberate manipulation of the context of an image make-or-break a caption candidate? Personally, I think 59 holds some merit. Whether or not that's the one that works best all things considered, I don't know.
Would potholing it to Sarcasm Mode be abuse of that trope?
Yes. Sarcasm Mode is supposed to be "the creator uses a different font or typographic convention to indicate sarcasm".
We're trying to clear out the sinkholes where it's simply used to indicate "Hey, I'm being sarcastic here."
Sorry.

...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.No problem. I was thinking we'd had a discussion along those lines, wanted to confirm one way or the other.
We did have a discussion on Sarcasm Mode here. Most importantly, I can't find any place where it's said that potholes aren't examples.

Crown Description:
Nominations for replacement images:
If people think the tongue was used to shoot the gun with, if anything it makes the image stronger.
I still think it's about equal with the Yoshi pic, so I don't mind either.
