HomeStation Presents: Caption This Picture #13
by Olivia_Allin, HSM photographer
For this installment of Caption This Picture, we salute our partner site, AlphaZone4!
In case you’re one of the two people on the planet who isn’t familiar with AlphaZone4, it’s the most-visited Home community site in the world. Created during what is still considered by many to be the heydey of Home — when nDreams’ alternate reality game, Xi, had captivated the entire community’s attention — AlphaZone4 boasts a comprehensive database of Home items, and also serves as a fantastic source of information about what’s new and hot in Home.
AlphaZone4 has also accomplished the one thing that no other Home media site has done: it’s managed near-universal recognition within the active Home community. Quite simply, if you want to know what’s what in Home, you go to AZ4 — and everyone knows this.
And since it is the creation of Cubehouse, the resident computer genius who also created the HomeStation website, we also have to salute AlphaZone4 in the only appropriate way — by poking fun at it.
This particular photo was taken from AlphaZone4’s Desert Haven clubhouse. Aaaaaaaaaaand that’s about all we’re gonna say. What’s going on in this picture? That’s for you to tell us!

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.
“Oh my, I guess you didn’t get the memo about this being a formal affair!”
“Formal? What’s that?”
“Yo! Who is up for some chili dogs and beer?”
“You have to be kidding me! I wouldn’t dare drip chili sauce on this white tux, I can’t afford the dry cleaning!”
Your pool rips!
I cleaned it yesterday
-Girls look cute!
In their swimming suits
-Holy Guacamole!
We’ve got chips!
So come on take a dip
‘Cause my pool rips
It was a pool party for the cool kids at my school
It’s so cool in my pool
Yeah yeah yeah
Pool party baby
It was a cool party
Cool pool party
La la la la
Pool party baby
The ratio of girls to guys is five to one
There hasn’t been a party like this since 1981
Come to my party let the games begin
We’ve even got floaties if you can’t swim
-Your pool rips!
I cleaned it yesterday
-Girls look cute!
In their swimming suits
-Holy Guacamole!
We’ve got chips!
So come on take a dip
‘Cause my pool rips
I love you girl, you know it’s true
To have a super party in my swimming pool
Jump on in and you will see
Just how fun a pool party can be
But don’t eat too much before you swim
‘Cause you might get a cramp under your chin
Someone’s screaming, that’s not cool
Who threw that Reggie Bar in the pool?
Ronnie, Sally, Bobby and Mike
It’s my pool party, we’ll do what we like!
Wonder what would happen if we dropped a Mento’s in this pool?
Touch that drowning lady, oh heavens no! Now what was I saying, oh yes, how dare you wear shorts to a formal event.
The day the Opposite Club decided to go skinny dipping.
This is supposed to be a high energy trance not a wimpy low energy sleepover.
You jest don’t get it, do you?
“Soooome enchanted evening . . .”
