CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #78
 

Or, the last caption contest before anyone here who is still sane goes insane.

Here's the scores:

And the picture, which will have to serve as my safety reminder for the year (as I can't animate worth squat):

As always, the deadline is midnight at Saturday, although I'm sure that starting around 10:00 AM on Saturday you'll have bigger things on your plate.

Go!

Scratch it right there... no, a little more to the right... Awww, ya got it!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #78
 

This probably wouldn't have happened if Ricky had worn his safety glasses over his eyes. If he had he might have noticed the finely printed letters on the lenses warning that "Sharp objects in front of lenses are closer than they appear".

269's Robot: This is what Ricky looked like before he got his front two teeth removed.

The Cooney Robotics team suddenly realized that they still had a little more work to do on their "Robo-Dentist" system. It seems that when the "remove filling" command was activated, they had forgotten to have the robot use an existing orifice rather than make a new one...

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #78
 

When robots become the safety captains for your team, you know everyone is going to have to wear their saftey glasses correctly.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #78
 

"AHHHHHHH!!! i got something in my eye now only if i knew were my safety glasses were i wouldn't have this problem!!!" :D :D :D

... but his fancy protective headgear was not enough
to stop the evil robot from sucking his brains out ...

take two:

"my thoughts to your thoughts
my mind to your mind....
PAIN! PAIN! STRIPPED GEARS! BROKEN TEETH!"

Ricky demonstrates 269's heavy lifting ability. The team spent so much time on the robot it left little time for a design on the lift attachment. As this picture demonstrates, lifting a mentor with a little plastic head attachment causes a great deal of wear and tear on the mentor. Fortunately, doctors agree that with therapy, Ricky will be able to get his ears back to their original location without surgery.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #78
 

Entry 1: Ricky, thinking that if he kept his eyes closed he wouldn't need safety glasses. This did not keep him from running into robots and getting impaled though.

Entry 2: Team 269, in the hopes of getting Dean Kamen's attention, decided to use Ricky as bait. Here we see them inserting the hook. After the initial pain, Ricky didn't feel a thing as this was a part of his body he didn't use :)

Entry 3: Team 269's robot, seeing a direct safety glass violation, decided to take matters in it own hands (hook) and put the glasses in their correct location. This caused Ricky great pain and some stitches but he will never forget the proper wearing of the glasses. The robot later self destructed because it caused harm to a human (Robotics law #1)

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #78
 

take three:

no matter how short you cut it, you cant stop a determined robot from pulling your hair

take four:

STOP! STOP! STOP! HUMAN INTERFACE - POLARITY IS - REVERSED!

take five:

"How do YOU like getting new code downloaded every 2 minutes? Hurts, doesnt it?"

Fortunately the camera was searching for the yellow target

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #78
 

When 269's robot decided to become a surgeon, it first learned the ropes of how to use anesthetic. Here, we see an example:

Ricky: owowowow!
Robot: he's still awake ! ANESTHESIA!!!

[not part of entry] you might not get this fully if you haven't seen the skit "Anesthesia"[/not part of entry]

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #78
 

269 Operator: Hey! Guys, I think Dave took the Krispy Kreme bait! We'll be sure to have the best robot in 2006!

269 Driver: That's not Dave! Ricky, why'd you have to take the last donut! :mad:

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #78
 

Tim the enchanter: There in that cave is a mnster of terrrible wrath! It will take your head off from a mile away!

Arthor, king of the brittens: where behid the robot?!?!?!

Tim: NO! IT IS THE ROBOT!

Arthor: You SILLY SOD! THAT IS HARMLESS!

tim: THATS NO ORDINARY ROBOT!

Aurthor: Lancealot! go kill it!

Lancealot: MY pleasure! I have head prtection! AHHHHHHH (rabbit rips its head off!)

Arthor: DEAR GOD!

(to understand this you must have seen monty python and the holy grail.)

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #78
 

"STOP STOP!!!! It TICKLESSSS!!!"

And everyone turns their backs on the helpless robo kid.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #78
 

Ricky: OOOOW! UGH what did I tell you about moving the robot when people are within one foot of it?!?!?!

Kid: Sorry...*frowns*

Ricky: Ugh...rookies.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #78
 

On tonight episode of ROBOTS GONE BAD, we learn what happens when unsuspecting Ricky tries to reach over and grab a Krispy Kreme from Dave Lavery's private stash.

[NOT ENTRY] So which is the real wrong here, not wearing safety glasses over the eyes or the robot attacking? [/NOT ENTRY]

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #78
 

Ricky: Uh, guys? There's a reason we didn't pass inspection! Get me the file!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #78
 

Ricky: hey my head's itchy and I dont feel like touching my head, can someone do it for me? please?
Driver: sure *crashes robot on Ricky's foot*
Ricky: OWWWWW!!!!!!
Driver: Sorry...*Robot's arm scratches Ricky's head*
Richy: oww...aahh yea the itch is right there...owwww......too bad I wasn't wearing these safety goggles on my foot :(

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #78
 

Programmer: Ive programmed the robot to shave our team number into our hair, who wants to be first?

Ricky: ME! ME! ME!

Programmer: Ok, hold still...

Ricky: OW OW OW! Did you set it to 'shave' or 'scrape'?

Programmer: Opps! sorry!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #78
 

See, guys? This is why you can't date the robot - they're the jealous type....Ow! Geez, I wasn't staring at her!

Peter Pan!
At last, after 102 years*, I have caught you!

You moved to Wisconsin, cut your hair and disguised yourself as a FIRST mentor but that didn’t fool Captain Hook.
Mah ha ha mah ha ha.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #78
 

Thanks to Ricky, Team 269 has been pulled from the pool to win a Saftey Award yet again ...or have they?

(Oh man, I've been waiting for this picture to show up in the UCC for so long, and all I could come up with was this horrid caption...forgive me Luis, I am unworthy ;) )

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #78
 

Entry #4: Last word heard from Ricky "Hey, what does this pull sting do?"

Entry #5: Robot "Tag, you're it"

Entry #6: Ricky (doing stand up) "Our robot has two brains. One's lost and the other one's is looking for it". The robot was not amused.

Although being impaled on the head by a 130 pound robot appears quite agonizing, it pales when compared to the agony of realizing that you live in Oconomowoc, WI.
