Caption Contest: the Queen's RIM visit

One does what one must to keep oneself up with the times. Queenie from the British block is still doing her whirlwind tour of Canada, and this latest snapshot shows her on a visit to RIM's production facilities.

Josh: "Which one of these buttons summons Sir Lancelot?"
Vlad: "I was told there'd be crack and berries here, what's this stuff?"
Thomas: "Is that where the little man talks in my ear?"
Chris: "Your Majesty's SAS are receiving these fitted with a taser, oil slick, poison gas, and an impossible-to-use interface that will discourage theft by foreign agents."
Darren: "Don't you dare send me home with a CDMA version!"
Richard Lai: "I don't care what Phillip says -- I'm totally getting this Colorwared. Do you take cash?"
Tim: "Hold on, dearie, I haven't typed enough o's into 'Helllloooooooooooo!'"
Joanna: "I fancy this browser, it's as slow as me."
Joe: "Now I can finally see Fergie's drunken Tweets."
Drita: "Careful now, you're holding it the wrong way!"
Jacob: "Add me on BBM!!!"
Nilay: "I specifically asked for a railroad."
Myriam: "Would you like to touch my monkey?"

[Thanks, Eddie H.]

"what the hell is that thingamajig?"

[One Love Posted Jul 7th 2010 2:42PM]

[MrDiSante Posted Jul 7th 2010 3:04PM]

@ravissimo
Yeah and Joanna’s wasn’t funny and was largely tasteless. There was little to no humour in it and it didn't feel like it was written in good will. And yes, as you can probably tell by the “humour” I am Canadian.

[Teerim Posted Jul 7th 2010 3:04PM]

@metformin Drita's comment was mad funny.


Btw Drita, you Albanian?

[d0mth0ma5 Posted Jul 7th 2010 3:07PM]

@MrDiSante I'm British, big fan of the Queen (and other assorted Royals), but I still laugh at this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_ESgHRI5HI

[soconnell74 Posted Jul 7th 2010 3:29PM]

@metformin

"Philip told me to ask you about your RIM job"

[d0mth0ma5 Posted Jul 7th 2010 3:36PM]

@ravissimo The late addition by Nilay was the one that made me laugh. Throw in the voice of Queenie (from Blackadder) and you have a winner.

"I don't care! I'm the monarch of G. B. and I want moar GeeBees!"

[NextGen Posted Jul 7th 2010 5:48PM]

@racerbmw Vlad, Drita Win "…crack & berries…", "…hold it the wrong way…" was quite hilarous hahaha… :D

[(Unverified) Posted Jul 7th 2010 6:33PM]

@Teerim : Nop, Spanish (from Engagdet Spanish exactly ^^). Drita is a nickname. (Comes from "Sandrita" diminutive from Sandra => Alexandra).

;-)

[MosesusedaniPad Posted Jul 7th 2010 6:59PM]

@metformin

When she pointed to the BB, the queen asked, "That's not an iPhone 4, is it?" Everyone face-palmed.

[aeonjoey Posted Jul 7th 2010 9:18PM]

@ravissimo HAHAAAAAA XD!
"helloooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!"
I LOLd so hard! XD XD XD

[Ellianth Posted Jul 8th 2010 2:27AM]

@MrDiSante I agree! Also from Canada. Not really into the queen but I think the comment was in poor taste also.

[realar Posted Jul 8th 2010 6:07AM]

@bandsaw

"ill expect mine (and only mine) in royal blue by tomorrow or it's your ass"

[Ryzvonusef Posted Jul 8th 2010 11:14AM]

@metformin

Nilay: "I specifically asked for a railroad."

I think you mean a "railway", after all, she does speak...the Queen's English

(ba-dam-TISH!)

[SolidSnake Posted Jul 7th 2010 2:18PM]

Wait, don't we still use telegraphs?

[VSpike915 Posted Jul 7th 2010 3:24PM]

@SolidSnake
hmmm, I thought about this one for a while.
Can I hold it any way I want to?

[Xoy Posted Jul 7th 2010 11:21PM]

@SolidSnake

Telegraphy was basically over before she was born

[R94N Posted Jul 7th 2010 2:20PM]

Can't believe she went there. Didn't think she'd care about stuff like that XD

[ackatack Posted Jul 7th 2010 2:21PM]

With the British Pound suffering, the Queen decided to take on a RIM job.

[bigb3456 Posted Jul 7th 2010 2:27PM]

Old Lady: I don't care. I want an Iphone4. I want one that has a higher GeeBees.

[d0mth0ma5 Posted Jul 7th 2010 2:26PM]

@Lowest Ranks

[Accelerator Posted Jul 7th 2010 2:32PM]
