Here's how the game works, I post a picture, and then y'all try to write a caption on it. After 24 hours, I will pick the winner, the winner posts the next picture, and then the winner picks the winner after 24 hours, and so on.


Rules:


Follow the CoC.
No derogatory captions.
The pictures found must have originally been under a BSD license, the GNU GPL, a Creative Commons license (other than -nd), the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL), the X11/MIT license, or another license that permits modification and redistribution (If it requires attribution, then for the love of God attribute to the author(s)!!).
All pictures must be redistributed under the same license that they were found under (after captioning) if they are posted in this topic.


Note: Copyright still applies to a picture, even if it is not claimed by the copyright holder.

Microsoft claims the new icon for Internet Explorer 9 is completely unique. Any similarity is entirely coincedence.

"The response to the new release of Windows 7 wasn't quite what Microsoft hoped for."

I'm gonna call it, since it's been a week.

Grant's kicks butt, so he wins, unless he wants to pass.
