Ladies and gentlemen, it’s time for Groupthink’s first ever caption competition. Pretty simple, really: just submit your caption in the comments by 5pm Wednesday, and the panel of judges (me) will announce first, second and third places on Thursday.
Today’s photo comes from over the seas; a place the locals call “France”. In the photo, “French” President Nicolas Sarkozy is giving a movie star named Clint Eastwood (from some country called “the USA”) a medal for making movies or something. Clint Eastwood says that “France” is his second home, even though he doesn’t speak “French”, and Nicolas Sarkozy says that movies bring the two countries together even though they don’t really like each other.
Have at it!

“You gotta ask yourself one question – do you enjoy me feeling your butt? Well… do ya… Nic?” (I would say Sarkozy’s expression blends a feeling of both pain and pleasure)

Eastwood: “I used to be with it, then they changed what it was. Now what I’m with, isn’t it and what’s it seems weird and scary. It’ll happen to yoooouuu.”
Sarkosy: “Nurse!”
