It’s time once again for our regular feature, Things Maybe We Should Have Mentioned in the Caption, but Didn’t. The genuine caption for this news photo from Iraq tells us these police graduates are demonstrating their “skills.”
Huh? What skills are we talking about here? Since when is getting run over considered skilled labor?
“Ma, didja see me? Lookit these cool tread marks! Me and Biff are thinkin’ of goin’ pro! He wants to try the act with an 18-wheeler. Yeah, Biff’s always the driver and I’m always the ground man, why do you ask?”
