Current is (a) quite busy and (b) weak on showing what caused the table flip. Suggestions for replacement:

All of the suggestions bar 1.3 look similar to Table Flip. They're using the same motion even if some aren't flipping tables.

Not really feeling any of these, honestly.

As mentioned on Flipping the Table, both tropes often go hand in hand. As long as it's clear that the character's frustration comes from losing in a game, I'm happy with having a table flipped in the image.

The pic on Flipping the Table doesn't have a game in it so any of these suggestions here are different enough that they'll work fine.

Still prefer 1.1 over Gaston. I don't think the mid-action still really works.

Crowner?

Votes bump; three in the green, two in consensus range.

One more bump; same state as before but the vote-getters have changed around.

I like Gaston one. I just love Gaston's "I'm going to poop!" face. [lol]

This one's now at a week and the two leaders are tied for votes and ratios. I'll give this another day or two and if there's not a clear winner we'll need a runoff.

Now that's a vote shift. Calling this one; the new pic's up and tagged. The caption obviously needs to be a riff on the "No one X's like Gaston!" song, but what's coming to me feels too clunky.

"No one table-flips like Gaston"?

Sounds good. Sometimes the obvious choice is the best one.

I say we take some inspiration from the lyrics of the song and go with "No one matches wits like Gaston!"

[up] That's already cited in the example and I'd rather go with a riff instead of the actual quote. The "table-flips" option is good.
