HomeStation Presents: Caption This Picture #10
by Olivia_Allin, HSM photographer
Wow! We are in double digits now, with no end in sight!
I wrote an article a while back, called “Selling Ammo to My Firing Squad,” in which I explored the art — or lack thereof — of pick-up lines in Home. Because, let’s face it: every time you sign into Home, you can’t spend more than a few minutes in a public space without watching some default avatar in equally default clothing run up to every set of female pixels in the place, text bubble already lit up, trying one facepalm pick-up line after another.
It is, if you take a step back and watch from the outside, insanely good comedy. So, in that vein, this is your chance to flex your own pick-up-line arsenal. Not only your best pick-up lines, but your best comebacks as well.
Be creative and tasteful; remember, the caption you use may some day be used on you!
Ready…aim…caption!

Olivia_Allin is a team writer, photographer, model, curator, graphic artist, researcher and comic relief for HomeStation Magazine; she lives in Texas with her boyfriend, and Home is more than just a game to her. Years ago she discovered the meaning of life but forgot to write it down. On weekends, to let off steam, she participate in full-contact origami. She saw a Bigfoot once, made a sound you never want to hear twice, and was so proud of her Special Olympics gold medal that she had it bronzed. She is, in her own words, adorkable.
“so, kid, when you grow up, you wanna be a chicken flicker? did I get that right?”
Yo, Victoria secret. What’s yo numba?
“Did I die and go to heaven? Cuz I am seeing angels.”
“No you didn’t die, but if you step any closer your going to.”
“Hey there hottie ware you from?”
“I am from heaven and that’s where you are going if you dance on me!”
“Did it hurt?”
“Sorry, did what hurt?”
“When you fell from heaven and landed on me.”
“I sincerely hope it hurt you!”
Can I help you find your Halo baby?
Forget the ferris wheel. Come fly with me.
Consider outer space. You know, from the time of the first NASA mission, it was clear that outer space has a clear effect on the human psyche. Why, during the first Gemini mission, thought was actually given to sending up a man and a woman… together.
A cosmic ‘Adam and Eve,’ if you will. Bound together by fate, situated on the most powerful rocket yet known to man. It’s giant thrusters blasting them into the dark void, as they hurtle towards their final destination: the gushing wellspring of life itself.
How would you like to have a sexual encounter so intense it could conceivably change your political views?
Hey Frank nice wings! wanna play maddn l8r?
No no… you misunderstood me… I said I am a Succubus…
Male: wanna B my GF
Female: Fail… next
Oh, I am very sorry Mr. Bonzo…. from behind you looked like a lady
Male: Hey babe… wats gud…wats doin?
Female: Just praying that these wings would work and I could fly away from that humid Taco Bell breath you are showering me with!
Male: …and I know I’m dressed like a default. I have only logged into Home a few times. But I was standing over there, watching all these guys hit on you, and I just wanted to come up and tell you with all sincerity that you are a lovely lady. It’s hard for me to find the words that will separate me from the mass of disrespectful window lickers that have been hitting on you. All I can tell you is I truly respect a beautiful woman and do my best to understand that this place can be a hostile environment for female beauty. If you can see past this default avatar exterior and recognize and appreciate the combination of passion and respect that I have given to you, then just give me a chance to get to know you better.
“Female”: Yo… I’m a dude
Guy: “Hello”
Girl: “Ewww noob! Go away!”
Me: Ewww! Put some clothes on, woman! D:”

Is this where I start the Victoria secret quest? Do I get a free t-shirt?
Guy: Hey Angel, what’s wrong, can’t get back into Heaven? Can’t say I blame them, must be a sin to look that good.
HahaHa! Ah, okay, how bout this then…
Heaven must be missing an angel… but don’t worry, I’ll send you back!. XD
LOL, right I promise this is my last one…
“Wow! What’s that GORGEOUS smell? Hey ANGEL! Did you just fart!?”
