Last week, for our Friday Caption Fun festivities, you provided quips for an image featuring a rather fishy scene. Here are the top captions you left for that particular image!

“I bet the Blue team gets Filet Mignon.” –Link1201
“It’s the dinner contingency!” –petetheduck
“Press X to swap for… wait, what?” –Ev1l D3m0n
“It was at this moment that Obi-Fish Kenobi wished that he could talk and say
that this was not the fish they were looking for.” –Hotrod192
“Halsey’s experiments on the Spartan candidates occasionally had unintended side effects.” –That Gunslinger
“Realizing that Spartan III’s simply did not know how to swim,
UNSC employed new instructors to train them in aquatic-based survival.” –Lumberjack086
“Don’t play koi with me!” –DarkEdge16
“Red team’s recruitment really started to flounder.” –Coux73
“Forget the Master Chief. We need a master chef!” –cryptickidd

Now that we’ve wrapped up that picture, let’s start a new one. Up for your captioning pleasure this week is a picture featuring an Elite in a barrel. Soak in the screenshot, then leave your witty and relevant quip in a comment. Off you go!
