FIRST

None of those is even remotely funny. Kash's rep takes a hit.

Vote me for FIRST!

How does "Things I don't believe in" not make the cut? What a f#$%ing joke.

WTF does a GD Wombat have to do with the law?

What'd you say? What was that? Oh, that's right, assclown. NOTHING.

4:12: I disagree. This is a much better bunch of captions than last time. F is very funny, and I'd vote for the Donnie Darko one if it weren't so obscure.

What if the response is:
Bunny: Why do you wear that stupid president suit?

They are all horrible. D is the least horrible, followed by E.

B is plausible. Does that make it less funny?

You picked some of the worst captions.

Bush: So that's what happens to the bottom 2/3 of the class at Fordham.

4:12

I think the problem is that you are not remotely funny.

The ones you've selected are all horrible.

I still like "Things I don't believe in." though it should probably have been phrased differently for a caption contest.

VOTE FOR THE DARKO QUOTE (J).

B wins, hands-down.

J is the funniest.

Yeah, "Things I don't believe in" was clearly the best.
That being said, the Darko quote is the best of the nominees.

I'm a conservative who supports the war in Iraq, and even I have to laugh at F. It's the best one by far.

"[FN1] There were many funny comments, but we exercised a bias in favor of those with a legal connection."

That is to say, "We exercised a bias in favor of comments that are not funny."

"Things I don't believe in" gets my write in vote

"Things I don't believe in" to win as a write in.

Even though I made the finals, I support "Things I don't beleive in" as a nominee - let the people decide! Democracy! Anyone can win the quote contest...if the Supreme Court says they can.

I'm writing in "Things I don't believe in" Kashmire, you whore.

The problem with the way these contests are run is that the actual caption is given to begin with. Then you end up with a glut of comments that aren't funny and don't make sense unless you know what the real caption is, which makes the entire contest completely pointless. If you have to know what the picture actually is, that's not a caption contest. It's a snark contest. A TRUE caption contest would present the picture alone, and invite commenters to have at it.

133t, you are a fraud. Everyone knows it's spelled 1337.

I voted for F, but "Things I don't believe in" is even better.

1.5% = guy who submitted E.

"Things I don't believe in" was by far the best. But I voted for H.

G and J do not have a remote or tangential relationship to a legal issue or reference. G is as funny as a cartoon in the New Yorker (i.e., NOT) and J is merely a tired, old, recycled ad hominem attack that's trotted out day after day by mindless Bush-haters. Yawn. At least the other ones are based on something that people can see varying degrees of humor in. Oh well.

Some of the others elicited a chortle, but G got a head-thrown-back laugh. Excellent reference.

B, F, and H are clearly the funniest.

I don't understand why the others don't just pull out of the race now for the sake of party unity, and stop these mindless and unnecessary personal attacks.

Vote for the worst!!!

Amazing how dull and lame the picks were. Dull and lame! I agree that this is Kash's first wipeout.

A New Zealand man who called police, claiming he was left with an Australian accent after a wombat raped him has been found guilty of wasting police time.

48-year-old Arthur Cradock was sentenced to 75 hours of community service for calling police last month, asking for urgent assistance because a wombat was raping him.

The orchard worker from the South Island town of Motueka made another call shortly after reassuring the police he was okay, but had been left with some side effects.

"I’ll retract the rape complaint from the wombat, because he's pulled out. Apart from speaking Australian now, I’m pretty all right you know. I did't hurt my bum at all," Cradock told the operator.

Cradock pleaded guilty in court to using a phone for a fictitious purpose.

Wombat-ATL-reference NOT funny at all. Not about GWB at all. Not about the law at all, really.

The same person is writing different responses in favor of "Things I don't believe in," trying to make it look like it has support. But the guise is easy to see through, since that caption is completely lame. Besides, there are at least some reasonable people (a majority in the last election for starters) who believe in the Easter Bunny.

I voted for H, but I'm still pained by the lack of an apostrophe in "its."

Well, there's at least 2 people who like "Things I don't believe in" because I only wrote one of the comments.

5:15

All your base are belong to us.

well it's official... lawyers have terrible senses of humor. i guess that's why they're lawyers.

"I hate America"

-Barrack Hussein Obama Bin Laden

Man these pretty much blow. Worst. Captions. Ever.

B was the only one that made me laugh out loud. Definitely the best of the bunch, and of course, topical.

No, 5:54, the even-lamer-than-this "Vault 16 'Coolness' 'Tournament'" was Kash's first wipeout. This just makes 2 days in a row. Time for new blood. Lat, fire Kash!

Wait, 7:45, you laughed out loud at "The Mad Hatter and the March Hare discuss the legality of waterboarding the Dormouse"??? That is an incredibly low humor threshold. None of these really even provoke a smile, but that one is especially lame.

F

J is definitely funny

F

8:09's ironic "advocating through posting his or her vote and then claiming they are voting but not advocating" wins it all.

Hell yes, B made me laugh at loud. Bush as Mad Hatter alone is humor-worthy.

Waterboarding the Dormouse who was drowning in a cup of tea? Quite intelligent reference.

But hey, if you aren't a Lewis Caroll fan, 7:54, so be it. Worked for me, though.

THINGS I DON'T BELIVE IN.

Eff Louis Caroll, Donnie Darko references FTW.

4012 dead? 23,145 wounded? for a little fib here and there?

haha...federalist society ROCKS

b

F. Nothing else was even close to funny.

B. The Lewis Carroll reference is the best and made me laugh out loud. Picture Bush as the Mad Hatter. Hilarious, and I happen to support Bush!

I too am writing in "Things I don't believe in". It's funny cause it's true.

Fred Fielding, tired of the President ignoring his legal advice and trampling the Constitution, attempts to sway the President under the guise of Hip-Hop, the freindly neighborhood bunny.

Kash, you forgot to include the funny captions as part of the poll.

If you didn't think B (the Lewis Carroll one) was funny, then you are most likely an uncultured savage. Do yourself a favor, take a break from your document review dungeon, and crack open those Liberal Arts college books that you never read because you were too hung over at the time.

H

Worst. Caption Contest. Ever.

That picture of the Dormouse is hilarious. How can it be anything but B?

should i be laughing?

11:46:

there is a difference b/t understanding a joke and thinking it is funny.

Yes, B is probably the best, but i didn't laugh out loud at any ...

If you have to explain why a joke is funny, then it's not funny.

2:10,

Probably not. Odds are you a tool with no sense of humor. Go back to your billing.

Whoever screened these from the original post must have mixed up the "good" list with the "bad" list. These are the worst!

239

seems the consensus is that the posts are not funny.

and i don't work for a firm and am headed out right now for the weekend ... maybe i'll watch a comedy when i get home ...

239 - is someone upset that no one is finding their caption funny?

Guys used to be president and totally fuck up the country all the time at my high school. It was no big deal.

@8:09's "the only attorney who votes as requested and does not advocate"

Which makes you a pretty f'ing useless attorney.
