PE Ship: I love you Leela.

Leela: I'm sorry Bender soured you men Planet Express Ship, but I' not interested.

PE Ship: I love you Leela. Have some candy, you'll feel better.

Leela: Aak! Manual override! manual override!

Agreed. That one was pretty funny. Not to say the others weren't. I mean its funnyer than mine.

[Reply #283 on:]

Yeah, I knew that one would be a three-alarm groaner.

[Reply #284 on:]

What episode is this from again?

[Reply #285 on:]

are you serious you must not like futurama.....

[Reply #286 on:]

Hey Defdev stop following me.
Do you know what episode it's from?

[Reply #287 on:]

Little did Fry know, that he was soon to be yet another victim of the Professor's evil Jack In the Box.

[Reply #288 on:]

Profesor: it's just a box.
Fry: wow what's in it?
Profesor: I don't know
Fry: well why don't you open it?
Profesor: I don't really want to right now, I'll open it later
Fry: why not now?
Bender: Shut up, and just open the box!
Profesor: (opens box)
Fry: wow it's... it's..
Profesor: yes it's another box
Fry: what's in the box?

[Reply #289 on:]

Professor: "It has bars in the handholds so it doesn't chew your fingers off. Now off you go!"

[Reply #290 on:]

Farnsworth: Now (heh heh) Fry, just step over here to the operating table.

Fry: What's the box for?

Farnsworth: Oh, just some dry ice for your org... uh, to keep you, um, cool.

[Reply #291 on:]

"Essentially," explained the professor, "All models are wrong, but some are useful!"

"Box?" asked Fry.

"Exactly!" cheered Farnsworth.

Anyone who gets this will earn my eternal respect.

According to my research, it's drawn from a quote by George E. P. Box about developing scientific theories:
"... Most models are wrong, but some are useful..."

There is, however, a backlash:
"Whenever you hear this phrase, there is a good chance that you are about to be sold a bill of goods."
I wasn't able to find a source for this retort, though...
I'll just ooze back under the lab door now...

[Reply #293 on:]

Leela knew that by taping the box shut from he inside it would keep both of them occupied for hours so she could get some work done.

Of all the people who could've earned my respect, it had to be you.   

Ooze away. Oooze for your life!

I'll ooze any way I flamin' well please, thankyouverymuch!

[Reply #296 on:]

Fry: "What's in the box?"
Professor: "The wah? Oh yes the box. I've created a miniature earth that is progressing exactlly like ours did. Now if only I could find my microscope. They've almost reached the battle of Trafalgar and I want a front row seat."
Fry: "Oooh tell me when they start up mini-Rush!"

[Reply #297 on:]

Farnsworths mind: Destroy birthday gift from Fry. But little that Farnsworth know, there was a midget stripper hidden inside the box. And little did the midget stipper know she was about to be destroyed.
Fry's mind: I hope that he doesn't destroy the box. I can't afford to pay for the strippers funeral if she dies.

[Reply #298 on:]

Professor: Good news, everyone! I finnally found away to really annoy defdev. This box has contents of things that he won't find funny but die of.
Fry: What's in there?
Professor: Some Pike trainers, a shotgun and a big grizzly dog given thumbs to use the gun.
Fry: And what are the trainers for?
Professor: Presentation.

I couldn't think of a good one, but I always wanted to do the Pike trainers reference (Pronnounced Pikey)

If I had my own PEEL currency, that statement would have earned you quite a bit of money.  As it is, I I can only give you this: An I.O.U. worth 100 imaginary Bonerbills, my never-to-be currency.

[Reply #300 on:]

Thank you, Trombonist. I guess i couldn't help myself.

[Reply #301 on:]

Xanfor's, while a little cumbersome, is still clearly the best.  The rest of you get to hang your heads in shame.  I'll be joining you, since I'd never heard of George Box until now.

Sigh's all 'round and on me.

[Reply #304 on:]

Just more proof that the great and powerful Xanfor isn't human. Now if anyone needs me I'll be hiding in the crawlspace of shame.

[Reply #305 on:]

If Xanfor doesn't post a grab by noon I'm posting one. It's the only way I can. *Hangs head in shame and runs to the nearest suicide booth because of the  crappiness of last caption*

[Reply #306 on:]

Since Xanfor and I tied a few pages back I'll do it:

[Reply #307 on:]

Alkazar: And-uh-one and-uh-two... come on, Bender, you need to loose some of those love-handles back there!

Bender: Stupid crummy exercise!

Alkazar: You too, Leela, you want our race to be nice and slim, don't you?

Leela: Haaeeee-yah!!!

Leela knocks Alkazar out cold with a flying kick

[Reply #308 on:]

Leela: Gasp!

Fry: So that's what they meant by 'genetic engineering'.

Bender: While getting his belt to stand up straight is a nice trick, I fail to see why those meatbags are so impressed.

[Reply #309 on:]

Bender: I thought Time Lords had two hearts...

[Reply #310 on:]

Haha, good one!
Anyway:

Leela: What's that down there?
Fry: It looks like Red Dwarf
Leela: That's not a Red Dwarf, you idiot!
Fry: Not A Red Dwarf, the Ship Red Dwarf
Bender: No, it looks more like a Blue Midget.

[Reply #311 on:]

Leela:  Great, he's still drunk.

Bender:  Toga party ended last night chump!

Alkazar:  I'm gonna be sick...

Fry: Quick!  Get some Alka-seltzer!

[Reply #312 on:]

Leela: Oh my god!  It's so big!
Fry: Not that big.
Bender: what are you guys talking about?  his ass?

[Reply #313 on:]

Leela: Wow, I can't believe it.  He absolutely has no armpit hair.

[Reply #314 on:]

Leela: "You know you're supposed to hold your clothes down when you do the Marilyn Monroe thing."

[Reply #315 on:]

Edit: I realised I was basically stealing LayZ's joke, so... removed.

[Reply #316 on:]

And suddenly, Leela knew just WHY Alcazar was so bad in bed... and why he was able to hit all those high notes.

[Reply #317 on:]

Little did Leela know Al's giant nipples were really giant hypo-nips.

[Reply #318 on:]

Is Futz gonna pick a winner or is this gonna turn into a contest to see cracks from impatience first. Ten bucks says it's gonna be me.

[Reply #319 on:]

The general rule is the winner is declared 24 hours after the last entry is in. That's the way it's been since the whole caption contest began 4 or 5 threads ago. Now I could say you're not the winner right now if that would relieve your anxiety, or would you rather wait a bit?
