Caption competition!

Hey, don't press on my knee, it turns out the lights! Pic: AFP

We haven’t had one for a while, so give us your best shot. This here is Beyoncé and some fans. What say you, all you Punchy wits?

Anything else you’d care to put a ring on today?

    Yes timmie 20 years Slipper is a liberal member of parliament and they never cottoned on as to what sort of person he was. Gotta love conservatives. They now know what sort of person Pyne and Brough are and still they remain. This should be good fun as the “campaign”… Read more »

Housekeeping first. The winner of yesterday’s caption competition (regarding the Melbourne water spout) was Jim with his obvious but deliciously rude caption “Meh…this government blows harder.” Jim, you win glory.

In other news, today is hump day so here are a couple of humpback whales to help you feel humpier.

Heck, feel free to write a funny caption for this one too. What else is busting your hump today?

    Only twelve dead in whole of NY Tim which is 12 too many but I expect the death toll would have been a lot higher if people had not got out. Suppose there has of yet not been too great a body search either and some reports have indicated death… Read more »

Caption competition!

This really put the WAVE in Glen Waverley!

We haven’t had one for ages, so why not unleash the beast on this burst water main in Melbourne yesterday.

What else do you feel like spouting about today?

    Gregg, I was working on the same theme, but alas, you beat me to the punch, as it were. Caption: Public outrage at cynical ploy by Sea Shepherd to increase funding. Read more »

 

It’s Wednesday. It’s Wednesday. Yay for Wednesday. Arguably the most hopeful day of the week. Two days closer to the weekend. And two days further away from Monday.  What more could we ask for?

I might be cute, but I have breath that would strip paint (thanks to old fart)

And here is one of the cutest animal pics of… well, possibly the year so far.

Now for the caption comp: what’s this little guy saying? Keep it clean people.

    Hi Punch Team, I truly impressed with your new photo shoot & I just want to say that the more, the merrier. I just think that all the great minds think alike.  As for this beautiful seal picture itself would be great for selling a new brand of extra healthy… Read more »

 

It’s Wednesday, and what does that mean? Well, nothing usually. But from now on it means: Caption competition!

You tell us. Pic: Ray Strange

So here’s a ripper for you today. Context: a giant toilet was set up outside Parliament House yesterday to draw attention to the link between decent sanitation and preventable poverty-related deaths. Please don’t dump too much crap in the comments.

What else is on your mind, Punchers?

Canadians are a placid bunch. Usually. Where ice hockey is concerned, primal passions arise. All kinds of primal passions, as the pic below shows.

What happened yesterday in Vancouver was shocking. The local NHL team, the Canucks, lost the final match of the Stanley Cup and riots soon engulfed the city. Vancouver’s top cop blamed “anarchists and criminals”, but it appears regular hockey fans were involved too, given there were over 100 arrests.

Vancouver has never won the Stanley Cup, the ice hockey equivalent of baseball’s World Series. So locals were entitled to feel frustrated after leading the seven match finals series 3-2, then blowing the last two games.

But were they entitled to riot? Of course not. If you ask us, these two had the right idea. While their city burned, they fiddled. With each other.  Do you approve? And can you come up with a better caption for this wonderful photo than Ant’s effort? Pucker up, Punchers!

    Uh. I suggest you go and stand on any major road and look at the shadow pattern. I don’t see anything that would indicate it was shopped. Much less problems with shadows and light sources. Read more »
