[Friday UPDATE] Pic-of-the-MOMENT

[MrWhat]

And the world waits to see what Picture #100 will be...

Well, I'm waiting, anyway  

[Captain Southbird (EHOL Creator)]

Wow, hadn't realized we were already that far up.  O_o

But, of course, Tim has been the general manager of it thus far.  

[Saucer]

I have a request! OVA Iffy, please! Been awhile since we had one of those. DLing a bunch of Iffy screencaps from you the other night, made me think how great an Iffy caption thing would be. She has some funny expressions.

[Captain Southbird (EHOL Creator)]

Actually, of all the characters in El-Hazard, I think OAV Ifurita has some of the most serious, stern, and otherwise normal expressions... what's "funny"? :p

That is exactly what makes her so funny!

^_^;

Yeah, I know I'm weird.

[Captain Southbird (EHOL Creator)]

Well, you GOT OAV Ifurita.  Now go make it funny.  

[Lord God Jinnai]

Grrr... Makoto AND the trecherous she-bot in the Centenial pic?! I protest! The grandness of Jinnai should be the one depicted, not those two dopes.

Feh, just cuz they're the main characters doesn't give them the right to hog everything!

As part of my ongoing efforts to avoid doing anything useful during weekday evenings, I've compiled a list of some of my favorite captions from the first 100 pictures.

• larewen_evenstar:  You do realise i can make a much sadder face than this.
  
• Saucer:  You broads love watching sunsets, right?
  
• BRPXQZME:  Geez, are the uniforms really that bad?
  
• washuchan: When you fly, you're suppose to flap your arms like this.  See?
  
• Kathy Guinea:  ARE THOSE REAL!?
  
• Saucer:  Oh wow, that sounds too complicated for me!
  
• Saucer:  I never thought I'd walk in on those two in bed together!
  
• jewel_of_roshtaria:  Its grip is firm, its chaotic power unparalelled.
  
• larewen_evenstar:  Oh the peace and quiet.
  
• Lord God Jinnai: Getting attacked by a cheap Doctor Who monster: PRICELESS.
  
• Saucer:  This one looks painful O_O;
  
• Neil Lafrenais:  This whole El-Hazard business is a bit silly, isn't it?
  
• larewen_evenstar: I can't let her know that I used her mascara...
  
• larewen_evenstar: "Do you think we can make it?" "No."
  
• Saucer:  This is why your mother told you to always look before you grab things.
  
• Saucer:  Just spit straight game!
  
• larewen_evenstar: I could use a beer.
  
• Saucer: My name is Shayla-Shayla, and I'm an otaku.
  
• Spanner: I would have gotten away with it, too, if it wasn't for you meddling kids!
  
• Saucer: Have you seen my notebook?
  
• Spanner:  "No conquering"?
  
• Lord God Jinnai:  Then I ate it.
  
• Saucer:  Geez... that woman can yell...
  
• rowan_a._seven: Entire religious order...at Arliman...
  
• Lord God Jinnai:  D'oh! (facevaults).  Gah! (facevaults).  Ouch! (facevaults)...

And, being the shameless self-promoter that I am, my favorites of mine:  

• Not now, dear. I have a headache.
  
• Damn it, kid, quit copying me!
  
• You don't have to rub it in!
  
• Strategery!!
  
• I'll eat my pancake in the bath if I want to!
  
• Ph33r my 5m411 b1U3 d0t!
  
• Quit trying to wrap me around your body, you sick bastard!
  
• Don't say that! It's her *wedding*!
  
• They had both expected her to be much better looking.
  
• That's the biggest thermometer I've ever seen.
  
• If I turn it off, the monsters will get me!
  
• We all know she's gonna kick your butt.
  
• When *I* was your age, we didn't have these newfangled 'great priestesses of fire'!
  
• (that one)
  
• Alas! I feel the cold cruel hand of Fate upon my neck!

Whew.  That was a lot of work  

[Captain Southbird (EHOL Creator)]

I do agree with a few of your choices there, such as LGJ's for #100.  

One of these days, I'm planning to redo the comic script not only for a better layout (see a later caption script I designed for my sister's little site, probably will borrow some elements), but also allow voting of maybe once or twice for any particular image... except probably not your own quotes.    I mean it to help give confidence to our best.  Although I fear it might make it a little competitive too.  Oh well.  

[Lord God Jinnai]

Ha! I'm not worried. Competition is good for the soul! It weeds out all the weak elements and puts the strong where they rightfully deserve to be! It's Darwinism and Evolutionism and, uh, Strong vs the Weak.. ism.

Anyway, I say we go for it! Death to the Makotos, and long eternal life to the Jinnaians! A bucket in every bang, a baby for every kiss! Read my lips, no new taxis! We shall neva surrendar!

[washuchan]

yay..I got in the list
actually it took a strenuous 10 min of brainstorming for that one, in the effort to catch up with everyone's creativity

and of course, LGJ got the hillarious trophy..man, you really do have the "blood", don't you?

Spanner got the connection trophy, heh heh, I can picture the exact thing since I've watched & read all Love hina series & manga....but pulling tights down, that's gotta be intentional & Keitaro, well, ummm...

and last

IFURITA: I have no feelings or a heart!

(Makoto tackles Ifurita)

actually I was laughing so hard because I read tickels instead of tackles at first reading....but then the fun is gone after 2nd reading

hmm, OAV Iffy is funny after all , I guess

w00t! I got quoted not once, not twice, but nine times! Sankyuu MrWhat, sir! I'd forgotte alot of those. Gave me a damn good laugh. I'll post my faves later.

[Captain Southbird (EHOL Creator)]

Of course, I've decided to put some effort into updating the script massively... you can already see how I've begun adopting that oh-so-nice one I wrote for my sister.



Sweet, sweet droplist... I think.  I at least hope that's a little more intuitive than the previous design.  I still haven't thought of a good way to manage the date/time stamps.  But a way to sort by recent posting would be wonderful.  After all, a lot of really old ones sometimes randomly get posted to by new participants.  And trying to look through all those dates will hurt your brain.




Um, point being -- you may want to hold off any more favorites list because all of your links will be totally invalidated once I update to a nice, clean, CGI implement that doesn't utilize these redundant space-wasting generated HTMLs.  

[MrWhat]

 

I do agree with a few of your choices there, such as LGJ's for #100.  

That one was particularly brilliant, wasn't it?  Easily one of the Top Ten overall, to date.  Kudos, LGJ.

One of these days, I'm planning to redo the comic script not only for a better layout (see a later caption script I designed for my sister's little site, probably will borrow some elements)

I stumbled onto Sarah's caption contest awhile back.  I'll have to give it a try one of these days.  It could be more difficult when you don't know the characters-- or it could make free-association easier.

My thoughts on the new POTM posted in the new thread.

actually I was laughing so hard because I read tickels instead of tackles at first reading....but then the fun is gone after 2nd reading

You should post a "tickling" caption, washuchan!  No one's used that idea yet.  And that would be better than mine.  I'm afraid my 100th caption was actually one of my worst ones  

Come to think of it, I should have written "glomps" instead of "tackles."  Oh well.

Why do I get the feeling that we're being led to certain conclusions with some of these...?
