RBR guy: Any Kate's Dirty Sister jokes this time Vettel?
Vettel: No, please no, those things made the GTP Picture Caption game a pain!!!!!

Ardius

Vettel: What circuit am I at, and which way do I turn to leave the pits?
Horner: Well, we're at Interlagos, and you turn left.
Vettel: I thought this was Silverstone?
Horner: Only for Mark Webber it is.

Horner:"... and watch out at Turn 9 that the wind doesn't catch you out."
Vettel: [thinks]
Meow meow meow meow, meow meow meow meow, meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow...

"...Wait, what?"

Smallhorses

Horner: "So I puts on my big glasses and my best cockney accent and I says to Max "Do you know what Nemesis means? A righteous infliction of retribution manifested by an appropriate agent, personified in this case by a FOTA representative - me!" you know, like in that movie Snatch?"
Vettel: "So, what did Max say?"
Horner: "He said I sounded like a complete "James Hunt", so I think he must've been scared!"
Vettel: "Oh Christian, I'm not sure that's what he actually meant at all!"

Touring Mars

Sebastian was having that dream about Mark again...

TS

Horner: I got these cheeseburgers maaaannnnnn
Vettel: Christian, it was only funny in the movie
Horner: No really, I got these cheeseburgers and they're quite delicious

Horner: ...and I swear his dick is this small.
Vettel: Thinking: What the hell is he talking about?

LewyOs

Horner: Look Sebastian, Mark just topped the timesheets.

Ian Poole

CH: Seb, we have just dsone our computer calculations and worked out that, to beat Jenson to the championship, you need this much Red Bull

SV: Is that for the car or for me to drink?

Chronos

Jubilation turned to sorrow after qualifying when Sebastian learnt the fate of his missing teddy bear through an anonymous message

SV: Our new front wing?

CH: Don't worry Sebbie, your not any different from the rest of us. It's natural to have one that size.

zed300

C.H. "Might I remind you, this is the direction we want you to travel in....FORWARD along the track. Not LEFT, like you did in Turkey"
S.V. (humiliated)"Yees Christian"

mafia_boy

Horner: What's wrong Seb, why the long face??
Vettel: I'm sick of being used for the GTP Caption game. It's not fair, why do they keep picking on me??
Horner: Webber's face would break the screen, that's why.

Metar

Horner: "Cheer up, mate. The new nosemay look like a boar, but at least it's fast. Unlike Buemi's over there."

PeterJB

Horner: Look, Seb. They're playing highlights of the Turkish GP on the TV.

mipuumal

After Vettel's driving error in Turkey gave Button the win...

Horner: Missed it by that much.

Vettel: Are you going to say that after every race?

Horner: Would you believe no?

ty00123

Horner: At least the sponsors paid for the development of this new nose cone.
Vettel: So Red Bull does give me wings?

RACECAR

Horner: Whats wrong? We can now spend as much as we want like everyone else.

Vettel: I know, but I was looking forward to the Bubblegum and those Bennigan's Coupons.

[PeterJB]

Get IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NUMBER 2!!

 

[mafia_boy]

I am 🤬 cheering over this!! 1st podium ever. I'm like Force India, except I score points!! Congrats PeterJB for win #2. 👍 You'll be right up with the leaders now I bet.

 

[RACECAR]

Wow, I actually scored points for once. Thats the most I score at anything nowadays.

 

[Peter]

You're lucky you actually score points.

 

[prisonermonkeys]

You're lucky you actually score points.

Dare I say it, the trick is that you've got to be clever. I mean, you posted a Kate's Dirty Joke as your caption, and while that might have worked once before, by now it's old hat. And it kind of looks like you're trying to pick up an easy win with someone else's idea. Now, every time Vettel is used in a caption, the first thing everyone thinks of is Kate's Dirty Sister, and so it loses its effectiveness as a joke. The dynamic of the humour is that the joke has already been set up; you just need to follow through. The best captions are the ones that flow through from that.

You need to come up with something that stands out. When I tied for first at the Brazilian Grand Prix last year (and when I'd come oh-so-close at Monza to the point where the actual winner thought mine was better), I didn't just post the first thing that came to mind. I sat back and thought about it for a while, and this is from the kind of guy who normally speaks as if he's in a Quentin Tarantino film or Joss Whedon series.

 

[PeterJB]

You're lucky you actually score points.

I was in the same position as you last year, only scored 2 points. Next year you'll be up with the leaders just like me!

And dare as I say it, DYR is so spot on the money it's not funny. I've seen Vettel used time & time again, ESPECIALLY with the "Kate's Dirty" stuff so I put a different spin onto it with Vettel being picked on and voila, I've tied with DYR.

You need to come up with something that stands out. When I tied for first at the Brazilian Grand Prix last year (and when I'd come oh-so-close at Monza to the point where the actual winner thought mine was better), I didn't just post the first thing that came to mind. I sat back and thought about it for a while, and this is from the kind of guy who normally speaks as if he's in a Quentin Tarantino film or Joss Whedon series.

I usually sit there and type up about 10 or so quotes that pop out of my mind under the picture and then filter through which ones would be good, bad, against AUP or grazing the lines of AUP funniness.

I was in the same position as you last year, only scored 2 points. Next year you'll be up with the leaders just like me!

If that's the case, why aren't I up there with you Pete?....I tied with you last year on 2pts.!

Oh, that's right.....I'm not a comedian.

 

[Peter]

I had to share this, old but hilarious!

What does it say on the Bottle?

ABSOLUT VODKA. 👍
