Caption Contest! (UPDATED)

"And I told them I needed the money for bandwith! Bandwith!"

Via Gawker:

Last night, Gawker Media Capo di Tutti Nick Denton hosted an intimate gathering at Gawkland, aka, The House That Links Built. (We only tell you this because he’d fire us if we didn’t.)

The occasion? Celebrating the taping of an upcoming episode of Charlie Rose featuring writer and semi-retired blogger Andrew Sullivan (left), our own foul-mouthed sister, Ana Marie Cox (center), and conservative blog phenom Glenn Reynolds (right, and yes, they’re not standing in order of political inclination).

Caption it. The possibilities are endless. I'm stunned into bemused silence right now, but I'll contribute more later. If you aren't registered to comment yet, you should register.

UPDATE: Another caption:

"Don't look now, dahling - here comes Professor Pyle from 'Wayback University.' Ah-hahahahaha!"

"Well Goooooollleeee! This here shrimp cocktail is miiiighty fancy!"

UPDATED: A p-shop masterwork.

UPDATE: Easy on the X-rated stuff, jeez. I mean, if you're gonna take the crass route, it needs to be clever.

"So Glenn asks me...wait, wait, this one'll kill you. He asks 'How much f*cking Pledge do you need to buy?' AAAAAHAHAHAHA!"

Glenn--"ha, ha, that's a good one...er, ha, er. Wait, he stuck it where?"

The source of Glenn's new obsessive showering habit.

Ana Marie: "And her mouth was open like this..."
*Sullivan puts on plastic grin to hide horror*
Glenn Reynolds: "Oooh.."
Ana Marie: "And he stuck his Congressional Representative deep..."

Posted by: Hans Mast [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 11, 2005 12:22 PM

Glenn: "Thank goodness I'm married."

Andrew: "Thank goodness I'm gay."

Wonkette: "I wonder who's writing my blog?"

Which way is the bank?

Posted by: beautifulatrocities [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 11, 2005 12:32 PM

I want to touch Cox's boobies.

I'm just sayin...

Posted by: Rob [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 11, 2005 12:33 PM

Where is Paris when we need her?

Posted by: Fausta [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 11, 2005 12:37 PM

Wonkette: "Oh, Andy. If you meet any hookers in Paris who have been a** f*cking Jaques Chirac, I want an exclusive."
Glenn: "Heh. Indeed."

Wonkette and friends celebrate the news of her getting the starring role in the Broadway production of "Clarabelle, The Whore Clown."

Sullivan: "KY?"
Cox: "Anal-eze"
Reynolds: "indeed"

Definitely reneging on your "SWWNBNNL" pledge.

No weaseling out with "It's only anonymous, unlinked photo."

Posted by: Commissar [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 11, 2005 02:45 PM

I squeezed Wonkette's ass

Heh.

Posted by: Stephen Macklin [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 11, 2005 02:48 PM

Definitely reneging on your "SWWNBNNL" pledge.

Holy ... that's Wonkette?!

Posted by: Bill from INDC [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 11, 2005 02:48 PM

Wait. Who's Wonkette?

Posted by: Dr. Rusty Shackleford [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 11, 2005 03:29 PM

"Ok, Glenn, um, is it a carrot?"
"No!" (giggle)
"Is it a flashlight?"
"HA,HAHAHAHHA!"
"Glenn, if you say, 'It's my nanotechnology!', I'm letting Sully put you in the bear suit"

Posted by: T Marcell [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 11, 2005 04:25 PM

"Like that time Goldstein wrote about Oliver shotgunning dozens of Townhouse crackers smothered in fondue? Genius! And yet, we make all the money! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

Glen: "And when Charlie asked me which bloggers I most respect, I said Bill Ardolino and Oliver Willis!"

Sorry, I just saw your last update.

Please delete mine if you find it offensive - it's your house.

Thanks.

(Off camera) "Show us your cockholsters!"

(Wonkette & Sully oblige)

Glenn, "Psst, what's a cockholster?"

Posted by: Froggy [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 11, 2005 06:21 PM

Cox: And then I said . . . butt-sex!

Sullivan: That's gob-smackingly vile! I'm giving you my inaugural Wonkette award!

Reynolds: Say, is that the Minolta M982-32a with the optional flare reducer and gyroscopic stabilization? Let me get out my Cannon 567-l and photoblog your camera.

Posted by: J Mann [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 11, 2005 06:46 PM

Arrgh! Why can't we edit comments? Pretend I had Wonkette laughing at her own joke, as in:

And then I said . . . BUTT-SEX!!! HAHAHA[snort]HA!!!

Posted by: J Mann [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 11, 2005 06:48 PM

Gilligan, Mary Anne and the Professor share a laugh at their most recent reunion.

Posted by: OneDrummer [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 11, 2005 07:18 PM

Tag-team bloggers Andrew Sullivan and Glenn Reynolds employ the half-nelson and goose maneuver on Wonkette.

Posted by: betalune [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 12, 2005 12:21 AM

What happened to Reynolds' right hand?

Posted by: willem [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 12, 2005 12:30 AM

Hmmm. That post from Hubris was one of the funniest things I have read in ages. But I am not normal, and this IS Bill's baby, so I have no problem with its removal.

I forget who posted something like this one originally, but lets see if this revised version passes muster (assuming anyone even gets it):

Glen: OK, the Nikon is on the tripod, and the remote is in my hand. On the count of three, everyone say “santorum”!”

Posted by: jmaster [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 12, 2005 01:00 AM

One more button and we can see peoples actual attraction to Wonkette.

Posted by: PiZero [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 12, 2005 01:26 AM

Glenn: So, I pull this out, count to five...
Sully: Three, Glenn!
Glenn: To three, then we throw Wonkette at the Vorpal Bunny? Ok, One! Two!...

Posted by: Cybrludite [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 12, 2005 01:30 AM

Malkin linked and delinked, you guys got so bad. And I can't say I blame her ...

Posted by: Bill from INDC [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 12, 2005 01:31 AM

Glenn: "So, you think it's because I'm from Tennessee that I understand all this butt sex talk?"

Posted by: Cowboy Blob [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 12, 2005 01:45 AM

There are three boobs in this picture, and Glenn's not one of them.

Posted by: Pat Curley [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 12, 2005 01:59 AM

You're really suprised, given who's in the picture and what two of them are famous for?

Posted by: Cybrludite [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 12, 2005 02:11 AM

You're really suprised

No, not surprised. Though, what is it exactly that you think Sullivan is "famous for?"

Posted by: Bill from INDC [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 12, 2005 02:20 AM

I TB'd my photoshop entry. Thanks for hosting the contest, Bill.

Posted by: Dan [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 12, 2005 02:55 AM

I could have phrased that better. Basically any caption contest involving a noted (sometimes conservative) homosexual man and a woman famous from breaking a story on another woman blogger getting buggered for pay, the humor is going to be a bit on the raw side. And Professor Reynold's positioning & goofy expression don't really help matters much.

Three of the most prominent analyzers of the news today discuss Eason Jordan’s career options.

Posted by: Tim Worstall [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 12, 2005 05:51 AM

No caption, just two comments:

Tim, shamelessly begging for a link from one of them? ;-) hehehe

And...Gawd, SWWNBNNL is fugly. She and Sullivan are clearly using one another for their "connections"...sexual, financial, etc...

Posted by: Beth the VRW Conspirator [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 12, 2005 11:42 AM

Cyber -

Your analysis is right, it's not unexpected. But here's the key with naughty, naughty humor - the joke better be damn good. :-)

Posted by: Bill from INDC [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 12, 2005 12:22 PM

"Hey Sully, who's that guy behind us? Is that Josh Marshall? Glenn who? Sorry, I don't read blogs."

Holland Tunnel seems to have access from both sides of the river, according to this pic.

Wonkette: Andy, what is a UFIA*?

Glenn: THIS is a UFIA! Heh.

Wonkette: !?!

Andy: Heh, indeed.

(*Don't blame me, blame Fark.)

Posted by: Nick Bourbaki [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 13, 2005 10:13 PM

Why, exactly, are Cox and Sullivan posing with a cardboard cut-out of Reynolds?

Posted by: Joe R. the Unabrewer [TypeKey Profile Page] at February 14, 2005 11:50 PM

Great, looks like there's now another reason to look at Wonkette and think "Boob."

Later,
bbeck
