Caption contest: J Allard / N'Gai Croal mashup

So the story goes that Microsoft's bald J Allard and Newsweek's bedredlocked N'Gai Croal are at dinner together, and they make a bet: if the PSP sold 10m units faster than did the PS2, Allard has to dress up like N'Gai (during his next E3 keynote, which never came); if not, J gets to shave N'Gai's head. Guess who won. Not that we think of ourselves as particularly cruel, but surely we can't be expected to let this one go without a caption contest, can we?

Evan: "After that unfortunate night with the Rastafarian gamers, Allard swore off marijuana forever."
Ryan: "Headline: J Allard hired to manage Weird Al's White & Nerdy tour."
Don: "You mean it doesn't cost an extra $100 to add WiFi to this thing?" [Snap! -Ed.]
Paul: "Yeah, but does this come in Simpsons yellow?"
Ross: "Behold the Zune Elite. Now with HD-UMD and minoxidil."

The bleeding edge of "cool", "in", and "hip". Really! It says so on my blog!!

This doesn't need a caption. Really, it speaks for itself.

In an effort to justify some of the names on the No Fly list, Homeland Security photoshops some mugshots to portray a more sinister image.

What happens to J. Allard after a night of trying to be social. He loses the Zune and ends up with another brick... although a slightly more versatile one (hackable).

BTW I actually like the Zune... and I have to give credit to anyone honorable enough to completely embarrass themselves in superpublic because they lost a wager... plus it's nice not to see corporate types to be silly once in awhile (as opposed to evil and avaricious).

In an effort to market to the white suburban youth, Microsoft has released their new wigger line of PSPs, sporting the new campaign slogan, "Be as black as you think you are."

[thepumpkingdom @ May 11th 2007 1:00PM]

PSP: Bling for white people.

[Jay Hash @ May 11th 2007 1:18PM]

Police Officer: We ran out of serial number placards, but we've confiscated hundreds of these PSP's. Here, turn to the left please.

J Allard: But I'm not N'Gai Croal! These are his clothes, his dreads...

Police Officer: And his weed too? Face front and push start, please.

Despite its somewhat....different appearance, Sony has high hopes for their new advertising scheme.

Given that a stint in the "Morphine Genereation" made him bald, and apparently ganja did...THAT to him I would have to say this picture fairly screams...

In yet another cost cutting measure, the LAPD has laid off all officers in charge of inserting white letters into black placards for mug shots. Each station now has a single PSP and in the ultimate form of humiliation, makes the suspect fill out their own info (we all know how hard that is with the PSPs stupid cell phone like keyboard).
Engadget has broken the story and has the first leaked photos...
Mel Gibson looks quite scary after a 3 day bender no?

Unbeknownst to Microsoft and Sony, Allard had been secretly scheming with recruiters about ways to make both companies look stupid until he was hired at Nintendo.

Racist PSP Advertising proves to be only half as offensive as the alternative campaign...
