It's been a long long, getting from #164 to here.
M.I.A. for years, LeadHead had started the Caption This! contests in the Movies and TNG subforums. I sought, got permission from each respective forum MOD, to start a new contest. So, the same here.
I will say, as you can see by the links provided below, the contests appear to usually be handled by Smellingcoffee. He's still active. And Smellingcoffee didn't use photos like LeadHead did. I have decided to carry over LeadHead's photos.
PLEASE NOTE: I don't think these threads should be run by one person, that way if somebody vanishes for what ever reason, years don't have to pass by to have some captioning fun. This is my last thread initiation for now. I'll leave it to somebody else to handle the next one. My suggestions, if you care to use them: Carry over the LeadHead stuff (in his honor), PM me if you want to start the next thread (that way I can edit the thread to let somebody know dibs has been called) and handle it that way for all future thread starters, and I think it's easier on some users to link to prior contests (you decide how many you want to do). I suggest letting the thread run for two or three months.
These are the last five Caption This! contest threads done here, for those who want to reminisce:

So, with no further delay...

Hertbert gives us a glimpse into the never-ending world of interwebs problems "solving" even in the 24th and-a-half century:
Leeta: Julian, it's time for bed
Julian: Not now, there's a problem on the internet
Julian: <pauses and then looks up> I feel like a 21st century meme.
Leeta: <confused> A what?
Bad Thoughts gives us bad thoughts about how fanfiction is STILL exactly like this...
Chase: What are you reading?
Sid: Fan scripts submitted to my fan group, Sid City. Some of them are really fascinating, exploring things like Garak's sexuality and whether or not he and Bashir had a relationship.
Chase: Are you acting them out?
Sid: Yes. I've had Andy, Cirroc, Nana and Armin helping out. Even my son is invovled. I'm looking over the next script right now. There might even be a part for you.
Chase: Any chance it is a starship captain?
Sid: No, it's a dabo girl.
Chase: I really don't want to play Leeta again.
Sid: It's not Leeta. It's Marda.
Chase: Jake's girlfriend?
Sid: yes. Cirroc specifically requested you.
Chase: That seems a little strange.
Sid: Oh, it won't be. By the way, the two of you need to do the scenes together. Have you been tested for coronavirus? And Cirroc recommends loose clothing.
Chase: Pass.
JirinPanthosa marks his first win today with this bit of Matrix-esque humor...
ODO: You mean there really were caption contests all this time and we were just in a simulation?
JirinPanthosa just can't stop winning:
DAX: Did the beam vaporize anyone?
KIRA: Only the nameless crewman.
DAX: Good, so nobody was hurt.
SO wrong, Captain Crow, so wrong...
Dax: I hope I get a visit from the one-eyed monster tonight.
[Martok walks into shot]
Martok: Hello.
[comic beat]
Martok: I'm here for a visit.

I'm not entirely sure what LeadHead meant for this, so I am interpreting based on the winners of the prior thread, so...
In what is still a thing, JirinPanthosa brought us (a third win):
FERENGI: Wait...someone's actually here. Everyone! Someone's here! The caption contest is back!
JirinPanthosa is apparently full of win:
LEETA: Hey Doc, got any time to do creepy doctor-patient roleplay flirting?
BASHIR: Sorry, I have an actual attractive misunderstood sick woman to flirt with.
Nerys Myk makes me laugh out loud with the "It's funny 'cause it's true!" caption:
LEETA: Give up, Bashir.
BASHIR: No, I will figure out what you see in Rom. I've an augmented brain. I can solve this
And as any guy can tell you, it's true and Laura Cynthia Chambers makes it so:
Dax: "Hello, sweetheart..."
Worf:..."okay. What did you do and how much is it going to cost me?"
AND THE "I STARTED THIS CONTEST AND SHOULDN'T AWARD MYSELF IN THE ABOVE ENTRIES" AWARD GOES TO MYSELF, WITH:
Kira: "Why do we have to limbo under phaser fire set to kill anyway? One of us could die!"
Dax: "Worf says regular limbo is without honor.
New Contest
(my own new addition)
And we now return to out unmastered program. Your photos this round:
