"High Falutin' Ultra Classy Caption This"

Because some of the recent "caption thises" (caption these?) were so...well, let's just say they would have surely killed Granny Crotchety if she weren't already dead.

So, this week, I've classed up the contest with a famous painting from some guy named Dave. I saw this painting live and in person on one of my many trips to the Met in New York, and I immediately started coming up with better captions for it than "The Death of Socrates." Socrates last words had something to do with take out chicken, so you know he had to say some other really funny stuff.

(ed. note: Crotchety has only been to the Met once, but has seen the Mets many times, which is almost the same to him.)

As usual, I will dole out some craptastic prizes on Friday. Good luck, and good captioning.

"The hour of departure has arrived and we go our ways; I to die, and you to live. Which is better? Only God knows. All I know is that I want some big ass titties in my face before I go."
-Socrates


Yeah, he said that, look it up.

Damn, forgot this is ultra high classy caption...

and I looked upon them and said "he, whom sits upon the foot of my bed in an act of defiance in the face of our fathers inserted his digit forth as such"

There is absolutely no way that I could add anything unto what you have already received. I think you may need to ask NASA if you could borrow one of their super-computers for a couple of days or so in order to determine a winner.

The fraternity alumni reunion toga party went pretty much as expected-- with most of the aged frat brothers blitzed, half-naked, angry drunks, or sleeping it off.
