Thanks to lowmilelude for this week's favorite caption. It was so exciting to ring the bell again. I haven't done that in a while.

Here are the others that made us giggle:

To donk, or not to donk; that is the question. (lowmilelude)
Dubz and Dubzer (ergsum)
Old School Donk-a-Khan (ergsum)
On the Origin of Dubs And the Descent of Mankind (e90_m3)
Old School meets Old Testament (ergsum)
Don't Donk and Drive (ergsum)
Snoop Dogg & Hunn Daze (mrryte)
Hip Hop versus Seoul (ergsum)
Which car brought the strippers? (ergsum)
I dub thee redonkulous (mnorm1)
And God said, Let there be dubs: and there were dubs (aleclance)
Introduction of IL Editor DeRosa's personal car: Chevy Caprice Classic with minor mods (dougtheeng)
Donk y Kong (bluepunk82)
...and then a guy popped up through the rear sunroof. (rick8365)

What exactly is a "donk"?

There will never be a post to separate the older and younger generations quite like this one... :)

That said: great caption!

Donk is a slang term used for "High-Risers" (cars lifted much higher off the ground than normal... basically the car on the left.) The Wikipedia article has some examples that go way beyond the one in the picture.

I liked Ergsum's "Hip Hop versus Seoul"

"Hip Hop versus Seoul" was the winner in my book. Well done, ergsum.

Congrats to Lowmilelude and to the usual suspects! I learn something every week. Besides Donks, I now know about Boxes, Bubbles and High-Risers. That 25” rims are Quarters and 28” rims are February’s. I’m a little proud of my word play in “Ex con stereotype discovers Lexicon stereo hype!” By the way Donna, Freud would have had a field day with your comment, "It was so exciting to ring the bell again. I haven't done that in a while." And it only took how many of us?!

Huzzah!

Erg- I'm wondering the same thing. Ring the bell again? The caption threads are always full of good quips, but I had no idea they were THAT good.

So, no test updates since January 29 - is the Genesis long term test over?
