WTF? Caption Contest

***desantnik*** · 09-17-2012, 05:14 PM

I don't know what/how to explain or caption this photo - a love triangle, a family pic (both men are company-grade officers and don't seem to be father/son), and what's with the woman's pose? And I thought I looked like a dork in my high school yearbook... and no, don't ask to see it for comparison.

"Comrade Photographer is hereby awarded the governmental award Order "Red Banner Of Labour" for 200% productivity during the Stalinist Photographic Campaign. His photographic sessions of two portraits at once are the manifestation of Marxist-Leninist productivity and honouring the motherland. As with other photographs of the Stalinist Campaign people can be edited out as officially needed."

"Now, my sons, do your duty to the Socialist Motherland -- and to Me -- and get out there are earn better medals than those sad paltry doo-dads. The sons of all my friends have better medals. Kill more Hitlerites, dammit!." (Disapproving Maternal Harumphf.)

Here are three more...

"Irene never could say no, so she was very surprised when they both came home alive".

"Soviet life under American Mormon values - The League Of Militant Godless".

"Klinger defects North waiting for that section 8"

I'm with Ed -definitely mother and sons. The one on the left has her chin and the one on the right has her eyes (not terribly flattering for any of them

).

Perhaps: "Hey Moe (or 'Ma'), whatcha doing?" "I'm doing the elevator dance." "Elevator dance?" "Yeah, there's no steps to it."

"I don't care how many Facists you killed, Neither of you are getting anywhere near my Maternal Glory"

(This only works if she is NOT their mother! Unless they were an incredibly close family! haha)

"Mom, we tried, but all the Glory Full Cavalier sets on eBay were fakes."

...another happy couple.

Nice rack, though. Looks like he may have those plastic ribbon protectors.

Guys,

You are missing the point here: it is the standard happy Soviet photo stance as described extensively by the powers that were
