I REALLY hope this is a typo.

i12.tinypic.com — This may be the funniest captioning mistake I've ever seen.

  • rabeidoh, on 12/07/2007, -324/+16"...in the middle of the road ejaculating." That is hilarious!
    • darkcss, on 12/07/2007, -7/+200why did you have to retype what people saw? was there a reason for that?
      • richlizard24, on 12/07/2007, -42/+8He thought it would be cleaver and lead to him being dugg up. Damn 12-year-olds have taken over digg comments.
        • mrjofo, on 12/07/2007, -52/+11yeah, damn 12 year olds who type spell "led" with an 'a' and "cleaver" instead of "clever"
          • sgtbutterscotch, on 12/07/2007, -5/+45actually he did have "lead" right; not to mention "type spell"
          • IndigoMoss, on 12/07/2007, -1/+17It's awesome when people try to correct other people's spelling, but their sentences are even more incoherent.
          • moush, on 12/07/2007, -3/+9yea, butterscotch was wrong too, and i bet indigo had to scan over his sentence about 5 times
          • sgtbutterscotch, on 12/07/2007, -3/+2how am i wrong moush? how is my sentence incoherent? makes perfect sense.
        • NathanielJ, on 12/07/2007, -3/+10mrjofo - If you're going to be a spelling nazi, learn to read first. He meant "lead", not "led" (since he wasn't actually dugg up, he just thought he would be).
        • Gamer2k4, on 12/07/2007, -2/+14Actually, mrjofo, "lead" is in the present tense, and is spelled correctly.
          • andburn1, on 12/07/2007, -1/+2No, it's an extension of the conditional set up by the word "would." The tenses are different, but, yes, the word is spelled the same way in both.
          • sgtbutterscotch, on 12/07/2007, -0/+1oops, wrong post
        • mickcn, on 12/07/2007, -8/+3HEY MRJOFO, RICHLIZARD24 HAS SPELLED "LEAD" CORRECTLY.
        • moush, on 12/07/2007, -2/+1should have used "would lead"
          • andburn1, on 12/07/2007, -0/+2The restatement of the word would was not necessary, and if you guys are going to argue about grammar, learn some first. "Would" is an expression of the conditional mood. In the way he used it, "lead" is correct, not "led." Chill your ***** everyone.
      • Dan11023, on 12/07/2007, -1/+16why did you have to retype what people saw? was there a reason for that?
      • moush, on 12/07/2007, -2/+5at least he's not attempting to make ***** jokes about jacking off, but those are the ones getting dugg up
    • nikkesen, on 12/07/2007, -3/+38It comes with shock. As repeating it some how makes it more true.
    • drunkentoad, on 12/07/2007, -2/+109Ooohhh! Now I get it. Thanks rabeidoh.
    • debuggercll, on 12/07/2007, -12/+166My favorite part too, was about the ejaculation.
      • GunHippy, on 12/07/2007, -2/+22I'd dig you up, but you have 69 on the dot, i can't break that =[

        So i'll just say +1 here
    • allthosemoments, on 12/07/2007, -1/+70thanks, i just got it. i was so confused for a second.
    • twrife, on 12/07/2007, -8/+71why did you have to retype what people saw? was there a reason for that?
      • Flame15, on 12/07/2007, -6/+43I see what u did there.
        • FlyKing, on 12/07/2007, -6/+7I saw what he did there, too.
        • acephreak, on 12/07/2007, -1/+0Well, I saw what YOU did there.
        • sk1ll2, on 12/07/2007, -2/+1that's what she said
        • Ricky8765, on 12/12/2007, -0/+1You three just wasted valuable internet space. CONSERVATION PEOPLE, CONSERVATION!!!!
      • ruthless34, on 12/07/2007, -6/+3she's a woman.
        • donnydarko, on 12/07/2007, -2/+1Joanna... Fire!
        • goth1028, on 12/07/2007, -0/+3xkcd reference people obviously didn't get. (meant to reply to donnydarko.. damn it)
    • kroegen, on 12/07/2007, -2/+8Because i think she would prefer it on her face.
    • edwartica, on 12/07/2007, -21/+1it actually isn't funny. This is an accessibility option, meant to serve the deaf. Its sad that their getting screwed because the system is flawed.
      • MerryMortician, on 12/07/2007, -2/+13we get it. You are morally better than all of us laughing at this. You are so much cooler than all of us heathens. get bent.
        • edwartica, on 12/07/2007, -2/+1No, I am just tired of the disabled getting screwed.
          • GrantTheGr8, on 12/07/2007, -0/+5I'm disabled... I just think you're being a pompous dick.
        • Ricky8765, on 12/12/2007, -0/+1I have a disabled friend and as far as I know he doesn't get screwed that much.
      • yeshuadoom, on 12/07/2007, -2/+8You know there was someone out there behind the scenes typing out the captions who was laughing his ass off at this.
      • Homoomo, on 12/07/2007, -1/+10No, I'm about 99% sure this is extremely funny to everyone but you.
      • SpicyViper, on 12/07/2007, -1/+5if i know deaf people... and i don't... they too will be laughing their asses off.
        • MacEnvy, on 12/07/2007, -0/+1I bet blind people wouldn't laugh though.
      • endtropy, on 12/07/2007, -1/+2It's a good thing YOU'RE not typing the captions for live TV otherwise the deaf would be screwed by your misuse of "their" instead of "they're."
        • edwartica, on 12/07/2007, -1/+2I have dyslexia you ass!
          • GrantTheGr8, on 12/07/2007, -0/+2At first I thought you were joking and started laughing out loud. Then I realized you were probably being serious and now I feel the urge to weep at your complete lack of humor.
    • mrcabnit, on 12/07/2007, -2/+4thats also the punchline
    • lhbaker, on 12/07/2007, -1/+4Doh! How did I miss that? It seems so obvious now.
    • mlwarrior, on 12/07/2007, -1/+2Actually it kinda pissed me off, because I accidentally saw her comment before I saw the pic.
  • allaboutdatiki, on 12/07/2007, -6/+917Who the hell is going to clean up that mess?
    • DeskFlyer, on 12/07/2007, -11/+397Paris Hilton.
      • Audacitor, on 12/07/2007, -2/+7Show me on the doll what she's doing to use to clean it up with...
    • bdub92, on 12/07/2007, -2/+113I'm sorry, i just have this fetish with flaming infernos...
      • dallashigh, on 12/07/2007, -0/+141But no gay stuff!
        • alexforcefive, on 12/07/2007, -1/+59just two guys JOing with their feet in the fire? I know it's impossible but....
        • cleber, on 12/13/2007, -2/+1Obscure digg references FTW!
      • nyrol2, on 12/07/2007, -15/+3*I have a morbid desire to burn* ah...what a great song
        • Skorme, on 12/07/2007, -1/+3I like your Aeon reference... very good stuff.
    • sethkinast, on 12/07/2007, -22/+14Kind of like the guy from yesterday that wanted a buddy to have fun with during a tornado?
      • sgtbutterscotch, on 12/07/2007, -15/+8dude, you could've come up with something better, couldn't you?
    • ThecNiqueMan, on 12/07/2007, -17/+4"Who picks up this mess? Well you're going to pick up this mess, because YOU are a garbage man." - 1989
      • indy500fan, on 12/07/2007, -1/+2Seriously people aren't getting The 'Burbs reference?
        • ThecNiqueMan, on 12/07/2007, -0/+5Ah it seems this movie is too underrated, yet.
    • bballbackus, on 12/07/2007, -19/+5Worst part is Vaseline is probably flammable
      • j1ggy, on 12/07/2007, -1/+16Buried cause it's not.
        • mlostracco, on 12/07/2007, -0/+5It is, just more on the level of paraffin.
        • elscorcho717, on 12/07/2007, -2/+2isn't vaseline petroleum jelly? that's not to say it's flammable in jelly form... OR IS IT? only one way to find out!
        • Onyxblaze, on 12/07/2007, -0/+2vasaline has flame retardants in it.
    • Zuggy, on 12/07/2007, -0/+13The water got turned off, we've run out of urine, what else can we throw it?
      • Jerky1312, on 12/08/2007, -0/+1"Must put fire out, must put fire out..."
    • codemonkey2841, on 12/07/2007, -1/+2not it!
  • Tinu, on 12/07/2007, -53/+6lmfao.
  • MikeonTV, on 12/07/2007, -9/+526Thats one way to put out the fire!
  • playaj20008, on 12/07/2007, -9/+360I know I always whack one out if theres a fire nearby. It gets me so hot.
  • mdjohnson1, on 12/07/2007, -7/+108This is the REALLY the opposite of road rage ....
    I hope the firefighters let them finish ....
    Usually the firefighters use the hoses ....
    • cakerun, on 12/07/2007, -0/+9Well look who had to steal all the good puns...
      ...In all seriousness, I hope the hoses don't get tangled up
    • Rhenthalin, on 12/07/2007, -0/+3I think it actually might be a way to express rage. Not that I'm a psychologist or anything lol
    • MorbenDK, on 12/07/2007, -1/+1they're trying to put it out by making that "happy ectoplasm" from Ghostbusters II
    • essjay, on 12/07/2007, -0/+1Maybe they ran out of hoses so they're using whores? I know I've got the two mixed up many a time.
  • djvchris, on 12/07/2007, -1/+103No wonder FEMA's response was so prompt this time.
    • Connormac44, on 12/07/2007, -17/+1That doesn't really make sense.
      • andburn1, on 12/07/2007, -0/+1Neither does Unforgivable, but that doesn't mean it's not hilarious... "Get me a chicken sandwich... and some waffle fries... FOR FREE!"
  • JoeRandom, on 12/07/2007, -3/+149http://bash.org/?69868
  • sp1r1t, on 12/07/2007, -13/+4What are they going to do? Spray the spraying?
  • Alix7, on 12/07/2007, -40/+9***** people ***** themselves in the middle of a ***** disaster.
  • JLecker, on 12/07/2007, -3/+172Fighting fire with... bukkake?
    • CCoe, on 12/07/2007, -3/+2That would probably be extremely effective. It would leave a strange smell though...
  • DeadRooster, on 12/07/2007, -5/+333This has got to be a misprint...surely they meant SIDE of the road...
  • Caspercreep, on 12/07/2007, -1/+25This gave me an interesting idea...
    • Dested, on 12/07/2007, -1/+79It gave me a raging clue...
      • uberlord, on 12/07/2007, -15/+5As much as I hate South Park... that's the best reference to it I've ever seen
        • nastajus, on 12/07/2007, -5/+8How much television you watching you hate?
        • coyote1284, on 12/07/2007, -0/+2People keep saying Everybody Loves Raymond, but I can't stand the guy. I'm ambililent about Chris.
    • neutralmind, on 12/07/2007, -7/+4It gave me a raging hard on.
  • PixelD, on 12/07/2007, -5/+59Was one of them Peter North? If so, why were the firefighters even there.
  • Slick50, on 12/07/2007, -0/+91That's how I put out all my fires.
  • himalstorch, on 12/07/2007, -0/+29Well, they've got no right to complain; "Hazardous Materials Response" is in the job description.
  • richmessenger, on 12/07/2007, -1/+272Well that's safer than into a tornado.
    • himalstorch, on 12/07/2007, -4/+17True dat, but it's probably not on craigslist.
    • greenlight2001, on 12/07/2007, -2/+66Naw, into a tornado is totally safe. Just tie yourselfs to some pipes with leather strap before JO.
    • jwiesenborn, on 12/07/2007, -2/+31"no gay stuff"
    • uziko, on 12/07/2007, -1/+23"possible handjob exchange"
  • craprock, on 12/07/2007, -5/+38Something new for rule 34!
  • hshadow914, on 12/07/2007, -7/+136"now thats what i call a sticky situation!"
    • BCRazgriz, on 12/07/2007, -3/+3I was checking to see if someone already said that =*(
      • moush, on 12/07/2007, -0/+5good thing you didn't, you would have looked like a fool
    • d1a1s1, on 12/07/2007, -2/+2Now thats freakin funny...well played!!
    • felipe82, on 12/07/2007, -0/+1South Park FTW
  • dubhglais, on 12/07/2007, -15/+3I laughed.
  • allthosemoments, on 12/07/2007, -12/+4......omg, is it unusual to ejaculate at the sight of fire?
  • threemagic, on 12/07/2007, -5/+25Are there Craiglistings for that too?
  • GunDownCCL, on 12/07/2007, -20/+3Shopped.
  • whatsupimphil, on 12/07/2007, -3/+25Is that a storm I see in the background? I think we have an idea of who it might be.

    • Gamer2k4, on 12/07/2007, -7/+2"straight guys only no gay stuff"

      Um...right...
  • SilverBack101, on 12/07/2007, -3/+19If I was gonna die in a fire you sure as Hell will know I'll be going out with a smile on my face...and sticky palms.
  • frankin123, on 12/07/2007, -0/+58Porno for Pyros!
  • uziko, on 12/07/2007, -13/+4Shopped someone got the idea from the tornado ejaculation story. Tomorrow, people jack to earthquakes.
  • jclassracer, on 12/07/2007, -1/+67Only you can prevent forest fires.
  • Foliot, on 12/07/2007, -18/+12Well?? Did they CUM!?
    • NSMike, on 12/07/2007, -0/+3There are just some things you don't talk about, man!
      • coyote1284, on 12/07/2007, -0/+1"You're the kind of guy that would beg for sex! I know, we can smell our own."
  • MScrip, on 12/07/2007, -1/+51Closed-captioning hours provided by KY Warming Liquid.
  • johnmckee, on 12/07/2007, -2/+65it's evacuating. when they do live closed captioning they use a special phonetic keyboard and a computer program automatically translates the phonetics into readable text similar to a stenographic keyboard like is used in a court trial. It generally works very well and is very quick but occasionally there can be translation errors between words that are phonetically similar like ejaculating/evacuating.
    • capiCrimm, on 12/07/2007, -0/+19Let it be read into the record that he ejaculated when the lady said no.
    • morpheus69, on 12/07/2007, -6/+2johnmckee is right...all you little kids need to get a grip, this is a simple mistake in an error-prone process...now if it were an actual news caption it would be unforgivable.
      • NSMike, on 12/07/2007, -0/+2We need to get a GRIP!? It's still hilarious. And no one is not "forgiving" the news station. We're just laughing. You're saying we shouldn't laugh because the process is error-prone anyway?
    • rockmanac, on 12/07/2007, -0/+1Not everywhere.. We have a system based off of ViaVoice where you talk to it and it captions that way.
    • jonatne, on 12/07/2007, -6/+2yeah, people on digg get excited about the dumbest crap sometimes
    • colobikeguy, on 12/07/2007, -0/+1um... ive seen plenty of 'evacuating' on the news ... so the 'error prone' system must have been unique this one time....
      another thing.. is it really that hard to program a filter of words that will never be on the news... ya know like a dictionary lookup loop? ya know like '*****'-> 'luck'...
      • AmICoolNow, on 12/08/2007, -0/+1Ejaculate isn't *always* sexual. Also, it's been said on the news, in context before.
    • kixxster, on 12/07/2007, -0/+1Sure that may be the case, but it doesn't really make it less funny.
      I went to school at RIT, also on campus was NTID, and the CC was always good for a laugh...John Stewart made a whole show of it when he came to speak. Get over being politically correct, and just laugh for once.
    • unfilterthought, on 12/07/2007, -0/+2Semen evacuates when you ejaculate anyway
    • coyote1284, on 12/07/2007, -1/+1If you have to explain the joke...
  • ChaoticCheez, on 12/07/2007, -1/+17Those are the VOLUNTEER FIREMEN.
  • Godlike, on 12/07/2007, -4/+9http://www.pbfcomics.com/?cid=PBF168-Cupid_Mistake ...
  • gr3yn3t, on 12/07/2007, -2/+11Who needs an image section!?
  • Richandler, on 12/07/2007, -0/+6"It's the end of the world you said you would do me!"
  • radu79, on 12/07/2007, -7/+1A typo for WHAT??
    The only word that would make sense is "evacuating", but that's two letters difference, and it is hard to type that by accident. Probably Freud?
    • clickwir, on 12/07/2007, -1/+3Actually most of those closed captioning things are voice recognition. Rarely is it a person typing it. It's just computers making it.
    • astralbee, on 12/07/2007, -0/+0Yeah it's probably Sigmund Freud.
  • Ins0m, on 12/07/2007, -0/+38THEY'RE JUST TRYING TO RELIEVE TENSION ON THE JOB!
  • n0xin, on 12/07/2007, -0/+10This is a reference to the Snopes article "Why Don't We Do It in the Road"
    http://www.snopes.com/photos/risque/firenews.asp
    • uziko, on 12/07/2007, -2/+1From the snopes article,

      "the captioning reflected a distinctly different climax to that statement."

      Did anyone else catch that?
  • Bensky13, on 12/07/2007, -6/+1This was covered on Snopes, basically explaining what johnmckee said
    http://www.snopes.com/photos/risque/firenews.asp
  • bensone1, on 12/07/2007, -13/+0i could take a crap and it could do a photoshop better than that
    • jmpeagle, on 12/07/2007, -0/+1except it is true, look at the snopes links above you
  • cmyk, on 12/07/2007, -1/+9There's a fetish for everything, apparently.
  • Errdoth, on 12/07/2007, -1/+6And this is why captioning the news would be an awesome job. =P
    • john2kx, on 12/07/2007, -0/+2.....until your first "typo".. After that, it won't be your job anymore.
  • chadseld, on 12/07/2007, -8/+3Probably meant 'evacuating'. But hey, I met a person today who had never heard of the word 'vista' (in any context). So some people may not know the difference.
    • basic0, on 12/07/2007, -3/+2That's nothing. Today my friend was telling me about some video game that he thought was for particularly "anti-socialist" personalities.
    • c0baltfish, on 12/07/2007, -0/+1Thank you Ted that was the joke.
  • cavendano, on 12/07/2007, -1/+12are they roasting some weiners?
  • shaggy25, on 12/07/2007, -12/+0LMAO!!!!! ZOMG!!!!! HAHAHAHHA!!!!! LOL!!!!!
  • cl2yp71c, on 12/07/2007, -2/+5So why are the firefighters there?
    I'm sure the ejaculatees could put out that fire and their own fire as well.
    • perryge, on 12/07/2007, -0/+13EjaculatEEs? Wouldn't that be...people who are being ejaculated ON by the ejaculatORs?
  • mearom, on 12/07/2007, -17/+1 I put the fire out in your moms pants last night using a similar method HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
  • thevelvetsun, on 12/07/2007, -6/+10Buried for not being in the Images section.
  • AmICoolNow, on 12/07/2007, -1/+7Pyro...phelia?
  • dubbleenerd, on 12/07/2007, -1/+3i wonder if the caption typist got that spelled out of habit, from answering all those craigslist ads... :)

    like the way I misspell 'books' sometimes...
