Cookie Jar Caption Contest! UPDATE: winner announced
It's been a little while since we've had a caption contest and it's fun to give away cookie patches so why not do both at the same time!
Why not indeed.
So! Here's the deal. Submit a caption for the picture below from this thread and you could win a 3-D puzzle of the whole world!
It goes like this:
- Post a new comment with your caption
- You can submit up to 3 captions
- Each caption gets its own comment
- Contest closes for entries at 4:30 pm PDT tomorrow (look at the timestamp on your comment)
- Everyone who posts a caption gets a cookie patch
OK now go!
UPDATE: The winner is gibsly with the caption in the picture below. Thanks to everyone who entered with a caption! There were many other great captions there.
Due to a minor emergency around delicious food being served somewhere else there will be a delay in the cookie patches being sent out, but they will be sent out.

Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer
YAY. Okay Entry 1: Women - I will shoot you... after I fart Entry 2: Man - We agreed to shoot the giant face, not my face! Entry 3: Women - I am Achmed. I KILL YOU! Or at least break your back.

each entry was supposed to be a separate post.... ;-)
Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer
Really? I think it would be more organized with all 3 in just one post.
Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer
Yeah, it would seem, but then, if the posts are separated, then they get 3 notices of the post, OR if they are linked as replies to one another, they are still pretty much organized :-)
Anyway, I assumed that this is what he meant by:
- You can submit up to 3 captions
- Each caption gets its own comment

"Mens vacua in corpore nero."

What?
Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer
Sorry, domindude10. I'm not sure how this works. First time I post here. Was that "what" for me? Just in case: "Mens vacua in corpore nero" is mock Latin. It's a remake of that "Mens sana in corpore sano" line. It could be translated as "An empty mind in a black-clad body". I was just using my definition of Goths with these guys in the pic. :p

I was punning around with Skunkbait....and was a bit tired when I wrote that...I didn't have a useful pun, so I shot two different languages back at him :-)

Would you mind PMing me what you too wrote?
Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer
Please?
Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer
huh? I don't even remember how that makes sense.
Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer
Sorry, I copied your small print into a reply box so I could see it (it gets bigger with a copy/paste) BUT I normally then delete it, having read what you posted. This time, I lost my mind for a moment, and clicked on post, and didn't even notice that I had done that.....sorry for he confusion..
Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer
No, I know what you did, (Copy and pasted) but what I was saying was, I don't know why I posted that because it now doesn't make sense to me.

and you answered to the affirmative :-)
Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer
Yeah, but I used to wrong to, so I was litterally reading, "Yes it was too you," instead of,"Yes, it was to you."
(I like to use correct grammar, and when I don't, I get confused.)
Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer
I see. Yes, that was what Skunkbait played off of when I accidentally posted it :-) I suppose I could delete it and REALLY confuse future readers LOL

I quite like the post as it is, actually. Instructables looks so cosmopolitan. In any case I can add to the confussion by writing in Spanish and Galician, the language they speak in the area of Spain where I live. After a while we could write an instructable on how to make sense of the comments. :p
Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer
May I ask (and if it is not something you wish to say on the boards, you can pm me) without sounding too forward, is English your first or second language? You seem to handle spelling, and grammar quite well.
Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer
Oops... confusion. :D Hi Goodhart, As they say, you're free to ask anything you like. I'm free to answer whatever I want. :p I can answer that one. English was my first language until I was 6. Then my parents, who are Spanish, moved back to Spain. I couldn't speak any Spanish before that. So most of my education has been in Spanish. In my twenties I moved back to Britain, and after some years I moved back to Spain. I speak both as a native. I teach English and Spanish for a living, so I have to use both every day. But at this moment I guess my first language is Spanish. :)
Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer
Ok, thank you, that is interesting. I certainly could have used another language under my belt when I was younger; but at my present age, I have a bit of difficulty with foreign grammar, etc.
Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer
Do it! Do it!
Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer
Wait, I know what I did. I wrote "too you", instead of, "to you" My mistake.
