Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #109
Well, first things first: I apologize for the downtime on the link. I'm not entirely sure what happened (343's site has played host to two caption contests before), but I'll take steps to make sure it doesn't happen in the future.
First place (not that it should surprise most) goes to:

And by opposing, end them. To die: to spray;
No more; and by a spray to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand natural colors
That flesh is heir to, 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to spray;
To spray: perchance to laugh: ay, there's the rub;
For in that spray of paint what laughs may come
When we have sprayed off this florescent color,
Must give us pause: there's the respect
That makes a mess of so short a life;
For who would bear the cans and sprayers of paint,
The oppressor's wrong, the proud man's arrogant act,
The pangs of robot love, the mentor's delay,
The insolence of teammates and the spurns
That patient merit of the unworthy takes,
When he himself might his quietus make
With a spray can? who would finish the job,
To grunt and sweat under a rebuilt crate,
But that the dread of something after spraying,
The undiscover'd country from whose robot
No robot returns, puzzles the will
And makes us rather bear the paint we have
Than spray on others that we know not of?
Thus conscience does make cowards of us all;
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,
And paint of great color and glitter
With this regard their heads turn away,
And lose the name of action.-Spray you now,
The fair teammate, in thy spraying
Be all my gloating remember'd.

Second place goes to:

Girl on Left: We're going to go, but we didn't feel we were presentable for the public at large. But, then we found whole cases of this stuff, maybe you guys should try using it...
Guy on Top: Huh??? What are talking about????
Girl on Right: Y'know, this nifty spray on deodorant.

The caption contest effect?
And, to top it all off, now my spreadsheet is on the blink, so I'm having to do a little workaround to get this:
