And, for the picture:

(For the record, 116's galleries seem to have the second-highest total of caption contestable pictures to ChiefDelphi.)

Until Friday night, when I won't have anything going at 9:00 PM (I swear!)

(By the way, I hope you're happy--you have an extra hour this week to enter, since I'm posting this with a whopping 56 minutes left in daylight savings time.)

"Sir…. or Madam…. Robot? You have to come down to the station with us for operating a motorized vehicle, that would be yourself, with out a license, performing robotic tricks without a permit, and refusing to show any identification. You can come quietly or do I have to cuff you? "

"Excuse me, robot citizen. This Chick-fil-A is currently under investigation for using poorly-maintained robot workers to prepare and cook their food. That gentleman and that boy over there just found some setscrews in their popcorn chicken. YOU wouldn't happen to know anything about that, would you, sir?"

Moments later...

"Oh, so you won't talk, eh? OK, buddy, up against the wall! Let me see what's in your (s)p(r)ockets!"

Um where is your turn signals and brake lights? I wrote a ticket to your segway cousin last week for the same thing.

Election fraud is plaguing the polls, as evidenced here by the security guard double-checking a “registered democrat.” The man in the background was removed from the line after being told that his eating a burger and fries did not prove that his name was Bill Clinton; nor did they believe his claim that the redhead seated next to him was registered and had voted for him eight years ago.

"Sir, I pulled you over because I clocked you doing 15fps in a 10fps zone. I need to see your license, registration, and competition inspection form. I also see this is your third violation. You should know that, if found guilty, you face up to 90 days incarceration in the county scrap heap..."

It seemed like such a good idea in theory, but when put into application, many officers found that "RoboCop" did not live up to the movie's standards...

Hey?? When does our precinct get one of these?

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #17
 

Sir (referring to Dave), please have a seat over there while I search your vehicle.

Lose the last one I submitted...

Reuters - October 2002

Attempting to cash in on the 20 year anniversary of their most successful movie of all time (not really), Paramount is proud to present their latest movie "An Officer And A Robot". A tale of law enforcement, technology, and the struggle for the two to coexist peacefully.

I have a metallic male, 130 pounds, about 60 inches tall, says he's been hanging around bars. What? Oh, hanging on the bar. And Dave is his pimp. What? Oh, Dave says it's pimp. And he says he kidnapped JVN.

What do you mean there is no emergency?!?
I saw you had your warning flashers on from a distance of at least 100 feet (R08). It did seem strange that they were blinking red...

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #17
 

Now can someone tell me if I'm mackin' this contest, or if I'm mackin' on it, or if it's mackin' on me, or should I be mackin' something else, or someone else, or am I just too old to be mackin' :confused:

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #17
 

I would say, that since you have so many points for your captions, that you are most definitly "Mackin' on this contest". However, if you wish for this contest to be "mackin' on you" that's a really interesting thing to consider. You could be mackin' on something else, but this is CD and mackin' on CD is fun. One is never too old to be mackin' providing the put the appropriate amount of effort into the said action. :P
