Caption Discussion/Repair Thread:

Go To

This is the thread to use if you feel that the page image itself is good but the caption needs help.

If you think that both the image and the caption are poor, please make a thread in Image Pickin' for the page, and we'll work on the image and caption both at the same time.

As with other TRS and IP threads, please state your reasons and make your case in your first post. Don't make the other posters spend time trying to pry it out of you.

Seeing that, all that comes to mind is Arnold's Pizza Shop.

^ While I'm tempted to suggest something about the predestination paradox, I think it works better wordless.

I'd kill the entire thing, but it's got its own thread waiting to be opened that will fix the issue.

Any thoughts on a caption for the new pic on Inexplicably Preserved Dungeon Meat? "Dude, don't gank the bats' dinner!" came to mind.

"What a horrible place to hide a chicken" works decently as a Simon's Quest reference.

^ Except World War III isn't about TEOTWAWKI. It may result in that, but it's not inherent in the trope.

They're a bit long, but I don't think they hurt anything. Maybe one could be made a page quote.

EDIT: Called the crowner since the votes haven't shifted in a few days.
