Firingwall's Captions

I liked them, although there were some serious foibles in the first two; typos that need to be fixed.

I'm sorry... I'm not sexist at all! In fact, I know for a fact that girls are a lot better at things than boys, I know one girl in my class who is mentally and physically better than me!

I'm sorry that a bunch of my captions seem that way, I do not try to make them to affend anyone! I just... have no clue or knowledge of what girls are really like so I have no way to use any of that in my captions, I often get my ideas from media and other things. I'll try to make a caption soon that might fixed this problem so I can have one that'll appeal to a lot of more people.

It's your choice how you want to do things, but I just wanted to make you aware about the stereotyping. I wasn't trying to tell you that you had to change it, just that you might want to. Otherwise, I like what you do a lot! It's certainly not misogynistic, like Chinagirl's for instance (there is a difference).

In my experience, girls aren't that different from guys. They just communicate a bit differently, tend towards different needs on average, and stereotypically like different things. There are girls who fall into stereotypes, yeah, but then so are guys who are typical jocks. People in general can be petty and one-dimensional, at least in a lot of situations, and turning people into logical sex stereotypes isn't an uncommon focus within the TG fetish -- but I feel the need to point out the inherent sexism in it anyway, so people are at least aware cognitively. It can be a slippery slope otherwise, but I feel it's harmless once disarmed.

Welcome back! I like the shooter game one the best. Short and sweet, but just quirky enough to be amusing. :)

I'm with Guen, plus light-gun games are fun. Why aren't there any of those for real? That'd be awesome.

I also liked Gothic Swimwear.

The first one confused me a bit. You said that he was shocked when it happened, then he just got a full mind whipe. What happened there?

Gotta agree with Guen and Hay. I like it for I love the short and sweet captions.

The swim suit and rail gun game were my favorit. I hope you keep up the captions.

I'm back once more! My dad keeps saying he'll upgrade my computer, but so far, zip! I'm getting tired of waiting, once he upgrades the computer, I'll have more computer space to make more captions and do what I do. But that's not the point.

Anyhow, I like to show some of my new captions. I choose a few that I think are ok, but as always, it's up to you to say if you think they rock or suck. Also, I been writing my captions first in Mircosoft word more often to try to cut down on grammar and spelling mistakes.

Also, try looking at my caption section. There are more brand new captions besides these three.

Let the judgement of these captions begin!!!!!

Runner: It was a pretty cute one. I don't get how the shirt changed though. Did josie spill some water on it or something?

Outrage: Just wondering how the girl changed in the first place. Other then that, I think it was a cool caption you made.

New Muisc: If there was a neko remix of that song, can I have it?

Christmas is almost here and I'm super excited about it almost here! In the spirit of Christmas, I thought I show my three Christmas captions to everyone. I hope you enjoy them and you all have a great Christmas! :D

I really enjoy most of your captions!

I loved the Christmas Miracle and whatever that first Christmas oen was called.

I also loved the two captions before the Christmas trio, those were great!

The batch before that was ok, I really liked Fit In out of that cluster.
