"Last time I fell asleep and crashed into the World Trade Center"

By rights, this should be a contender. But, will this even make it into the 'other captions' section?

Moves Like Zappa (Leee), Wednesday, 20 June 2012 15:48 (fourteen years ago)

is there perhaps a more New Yorker word for "buttcheeks"? If so I think it should be submitted.

eggleston or instagram? (Hurting 2), Wednesday, 20 June 2012 16:05 (fourteen years ago)

Also I'd change "freak out" to "panic"

eggleston or instagram? (Hurting 2), Wednesday, 20 June 2012 16:06 (fourteen years ago)

I'm no help because I want to change the stinger to "I'm holding this plane up with pure anal suction."
