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.

Potential one for the newly added image in Funny.Dungeons And Dragons Honor Among Thieves since it fits the context
Calling Hollywood Giftwrap crowner in favor of the following option which is now in and tagged as the new caption:
"I couldn't afford a present this year, so I got you this box."

Macron's notesHonestly I don't think that Chocolate Baby even needs a caption. We can see that the man in the image looks extremely pissed; we don't a caption to tell us again what we are already seeing. The image kinda speaks for itself.
Keanu Reeves is graced with this caption:
I could totally live without yet another reference caption relying on the viewer keeping pace with memes. But even if the caption is kept, three potholes in a three-word one-line are two too many.
Let's just say and leave it at that.I agree both can go, though there may be value in mentioning that the not-father is deeply racist.
ISO has a weird caption that I think is trying to say that the comic is Manly Gay through and through but not explicitly sexual. I don't think it adds anything.

Stories don't tell us monsters exist; we knew that already. They show us that monsters can be trademarked and milked for years.Is the caption on Creator Backlash necessary?
TRS Queue | Works That Require Cleanup of Complaining | Troper WallIn my opinion, it isn't because it doesn't add anything.
I think we should pull the caption from both Keanu Reeves and Creator Backlash.
The universe is under no obligation to make sense to us.Pull Keanu Backlash captions.
Feels good, don't it?Late but I like Sync's Chocolate Baby caption. The father being a Nazi does add some more "oh shit" to the image so it's worth mentioning.
I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.Trope of the day is Literal Soapbox Speech. A (wrongly-formatted) caption was added today saying "Actual soap box optional"; which is... not quite correct to the trope? The trope is about standing on top of something, not strictly a soapbox, but not nothing like the caption implies.
I'd like to apologize for all this.Bouncing Battler has a detached caption. Should we fix it?
Fixed it as there's no reason not to.

"No, your other up" sounds like a good replacement idea.

Is the caption on Brainy Pig supposed to be anything other than a shoehorn? I'm not seeing how it relates to the image in any way. clearly things are going well.
It feels like a shoehorn to me, so I wouldn't mind it being cut.
I cut the caption on Keanu Reeves, citing this thread.
Let's just say and leave it at that.I updated the recently-chosen caption for Level in Reverse so that it's actually in reverse and not just backwards.
I'd like to apologize for all this.NightmareFuel.Moon Girl And Devil Dinosaur 2023 does have a pretty good image there but I wanna suggest a potential caption to replace the current one:

So I’d like to change the caption for Film.Five Nights At Freddys 2023 from the current (Are you ready for Freddy… on the big screen?) back to the original (time to clock in).
The Owl House and Coyote Vs Acme are my Roman Empire.Is the caption on Blown Across the Room handholdy?
That's effectively a narration (or alt text). No it's not needed.

I prefer Sync's suggestion too.
