With this year's Crystal Con starting up, I thought we could set up a little caption contest. Something for a bit of fun, and get the creative juices flowing.
A caption contest starts with a single picture with no text. Just something enough to give context. That part, I'll be delivering.
Your part in this though is to write up a line for that context. Or even a few lines, though don't go farther than a few sentences. Make sure it fits the picture and try to be funny.
Here's a few ground rules:
1: One entry per person per picture. If you try to put in multiple entries for the same picture, I will only count the first one as your entry. Make it a good one.
-If you think up more captions at a later date, after the contest, the gates will be open, and you can make more, there won't be anything stopping you.
2: No plagiarism. If I do see someone copying someone else's entry (or so close the difference is nil), I will only count the one who posted first
-That being said, if you ignored rule #1 and posted multiple entries, others can copy your second entries for themselves. Makes sure someone doesn't block others from entries, and a good reason to follow rule #1.
3: Edits are allowed. If you changed your mind on your entry, you can edit them, but be careful. I will keep an eye on the does of the edits, so if someone else picked your entry before you edited yours, I will consider theirs the first entry.
4: No blatantly offensive content. It's a basic rule of the forum, but doesn't hurt to add it in
Entries will be accepted for the time of the con, from August 30th to September 1st, with the winners announced shortly after.
And here is our first picture of the day: say hello to Jobe in all her 'glory'.

Say hi to them if you have time.

After some deliberation, this had to be the winner.
Not only do we have the front and color change to match, this line is totally in line with what you expect from Jobe. I'd almost say a mite too obvious, but it still had me laughing. Congrats!
