In a attempt to revitalize this forum, I'll take the liberty of starting a game known as a "picture fight".
In the game of picture fight, each participant posts a picture in response to the last unchallenged picture (the last poster). The game does not necessarily require that the poster "destroy" the thing in the last picture, just to "beat" it, which gives rise to somewhat nonsensical and creative pictures beating other pictures (like "beating" an assailant with a picture of a buddhist monk with the description of "Buddhist monk show him the error of his ways"). I'll take someone else's description of the "rules" to my benefit, "This is not a OMG LOOKIT FUNNI PIX KTHNXBAI thread; the pictures follow a given order; which is to say each new picture should 'beat' the picture above it. For instance, one person might post a picture of a computer, and the next might post a picture of a virus, the next a doctor, etc...".
In order to ensure things go smoothly (and thus entertain with efficiency), I will erect a set of semi-trivial rules.
1. unless if your picture is absolute obvious in how it "beats" the last picture, it is advised that you give some description as to how your picture beats the last one. This has the added benefit of mitigating the game's history against dead links.
2. Minimizing "beating" of a picture that "beats" your picture with the exact same "thing", but in a different picture.
3. Try and use a variety of counters to pictures to keep things interesting (don't nuke everything).
4. Don't make your pictures too big or small.
5. To mitigate against dead links, please post a description of your picture somewhere in your post.
For bonus points.
1. Try to give wacky oddball counters to the last unchallenged picture (like beating a F-22 raptor with a canadian goose).
2. Try and use pictures whose links won't go dead anytime soon (try and use photobucket or some site whose pictures will persevere through the years)
3. As an additive to style, if you have a good link(or not), you may want to instead use the description to add style to your otherwise boring picture. For example, if someone posts a picture of a soldier, a response designed to beat it might be a picture of a zombie bear with the description "all his training didn't prepare him for the zombie bear".
Examples of this game being played on other forums can be found on these links, I strongly suggest you follow their tempo.

1. (MOST IMPORTANT) accompany your picture with some kind if text to add humor and description. (MOST IMPORTANT)
2. Be creative! Beat a fly with a carnivorous plant! (avoid using nukes).
3. Try and use reliable links. (try and use photobucket)
I'll start us off,

A squirrel. (I can't really add style to this so an a beginning post.)
