Caption Contest!
The pictures reminds me of Roger Whittaker: Streets of London
They could (almost) fit as illustrations to the song.
It’s Ralph McTell’s song & I much prefer his version - I’m sorry, I just can’t relate his accompanying You Tube videos to the humorous scene in the game, but I haven’t played it!

I didn’t know that, I just remembered the song and thought the text fitted the pictures.

I’m not quite sure what you mean?!?
I wasn’t talking about the games the screenshots are taking from, but the pictures themselves and the whole theme of this round, which reminds me of the lyrics in the song.
Edit: And the youtube video I linked to is simply the song, nothing else.

Sorry Iznogood, I didn’t mean what I wrote to come across as so curt & abrasive as I can see it is! Also I misread in your post ‘the picture’ instead of ‘the pictures’ i.e. you were referring to all of them & not just the one! (& english is supposedly my first language!!!)
Also I missed a bit out when I mentioned the accompanying You Tube videos - I meant the one’s that go with Ralph McTell’s version - the song is of course about homeless people & so yes! I agree it does fit well with the theme of the round - I just can’t relate it to that last screenshot though!
He He - Fair enough, misunderstandings happen.

‘Officer! you gotta let me go ,i have wife and Kids ... uh and some people are waiting for me to post the results’
ok ,i wont give anykind of smart remarks Sefir ... but ,
Intense! ‘Are you There?
When Intense Degree woke up, he realized that he was bumped in some alley in the Mexican ghetto with a terrible headache. All he could remember was something about “Angry contestants” and “delayed results”....
You know, I really need to stop hosting these things because whenever I do something bad happens to me in real life! (And something good). More explanation over on Chit Chat for anyone who is interested.
I hesitate to say “I’ll get the results up tonight/tomorrow” as when I do it often doesn’t happen, but that is the plan and then we can all get captioning again!
Sorry everyone again.

Hey Intense Degree - just get the results up when you feel ready as it’s just a games site which in the greater scale of life is a little thing & mere trivia!
I saw your post on Chit Chat - & hey I lost both my parents, my job (redundancy) & long-term ‘trusted’ partner, who decided to rob me before he left, in the space of 2 & 1/2 years. One thing happens that floors you & before you’ve had time to stand up something else happens then again & again - I know how you feel!!!
Ladies and Gentlemen of leisure! I have finished bumming around and having tramped through the entries can give you your fabulous:
CAPTION CONTEST WINNERS!
Not only that he was the best manualist he had ever heard, but he was playing with a hand & knee pit.

6 - Bum: Begging to be locked up to stay warm New Dad: Begging to be locked up to get a full night’s sleep
The one-legged medallion man wasn’t very happy on seeing the bum eying up his sock.
You all win:
A nice healthy meal:
A relaxing new park bench to rock you to sleep:
And a nice cool death star ice cube which can be used in any drinks you may come across or simply put down your back in lieu of a shower!

Runners up:
... So I guess that you didn’t get the memo?!
That undercover bum operation was cancelled 6 months ago.For Christ sake Dan!
Didn’t anybody notice I was gone!?!
You have been walking past me every day for six months, and haven’t said a word!!!Yeah ... Well ... We kind of just assumed you had hit the juice again, and was kicked out by your old lady.
Did I mention you got fired 5 months ago?
“I swear, officer… She told me she was 18.”
Online Shopping for the Homeless:
Let’s see now… I can wear the shirt and red socks as they are, and the green sock will make a decent mitten to match the one I have on. The briefs are a bit too big, but one of the clothespins should take up the slack, and the padded bra will make terrific earmuffs this winter. Now if I can just distract the guy in the window, I’ll be all set with a brand new wardrobe.
Prizes:
A meal with a tramp!
A park bench for every size between super skinny and super size!
And finally your very own portal drink cooler/portable shower as you see fit!
Thank you everyone for the entries, which were great as ever. Once again apologies for nearly killing the thread.
Let the next competition commence! (and if I ever try to host one of these again somebody slap me!)
