As always, the deadline is sorta kinda theoretically Saturday at midnight Eastern. I'll be at TNT this weekend, and in-person submissions will be welcome with two minor caveats:

1) Written submissions are preferred. (My mind is not something to trust to remember creative wordplay unless it's especially potent.)
2) If you wake me up to deliver yours, just go ahead and expect negative infinity.

Go!

Person 1: Why did we make this?
person 2: So rtfgnow can point out to Billfred that he has influence on where Billfred sleeps and can make it uncomfortable without breaking the OTHER Heidi Foster Rule.
everyone: ahhhh

Its looks like they are getting ready for the new game. I had no idea the new game was a mix of Stack Attack and Triple Play. O__o

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #276

January 2005: team 276 opens a fast-food restaurant as a spin-off of Domino's with an innovative slogan:
"Tetras. You've got two minutes."

December 2007: Domino's introduces a new ad campaign with their new slogan, "You've got 30."

October 2009: Team 276 sues Domino's for copying their slogan.

Sure, anybody could lift three tetras, but snagging four robot builders at the same time will definitely get you a Innovation award

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #276

Though three tetras look really heavy, they only plan on competing in Canada where, due to the use of the metric system, the load will be much lighter.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #276

You seldom see this much dedication in a team. They even redesigned the windows so the triangular light patterns complement the tetras.

Promotional shoot:

The lesson:
Tread softly, carry a big stick.

The motto:
Stack it like you mean it.

The men:
Trouble.

Photographer: Why do you say that, guys? Wait, you did say the robot was off right? Right? *runs*... I hope they are the only robotic nerds around, many more and it could get downright crazy. *keeps on running*
