The part of the ABC bureaucracy will be played by a herd of hippos.

This is kind of what my year has been like:

Clearly this should be a Demotivators-style poster.
Caption suggestions?

    1) Even fat fucks can be dangerous if there's enough of you.

    2) Have friends? Don't bother dieting.

    Sometimes it doesn't matter if you're smarter and faster.

    Title: ABC
    Subtitle: Lewd and lascivious crocodile behavior will not be tolerated.

    Saw this in a newspaper today. Looking at that again, though, I see Aliens. It's not a good vision.

    (I particularly like Cracked's piece on hippos.)

    Anyway, +1 to INDIVIDUALITY.

    You'll be dragged down to our level, whether you like it or not.

    Sometimes you eat the hippo, and sometimes, well, he eats you.

    I was up to my ass in hippos!

    Alien Reboot: Not what you though it would be.

    May I take this opportunity to say that I was always annoyed by the Jurassic Park films where the tiny little humans would come across a herd of huge grazing dinosaurs, and someone would say "it's OK, they're herbivores, they won't hurt you", and then the cutesy kid would pat one of them on the head, and it would act half-way between a cow and a kitten.

    Now when I shout "Hippos people! Hippos!", someone might understand what I'm talking about.

    I am Jack's complete lack of inspiration:

    --MAVERICK--
    Sometimes there's a reason the others don't shoot for impossible goals.

    --RISK AND REWARD--
    What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger. Until the day your luck runs out.

    --OBJECTIVISM--
    The individual is a heroic being, who has no need for the rules of the masses. Only it's best to never actually test that theory.

    Oh, and I was just reminded of the fantastic Stephen Colbert/Stone Phillips "Gravitas Off":

    "Suddenly, and without warning, it became a real life game of hungry, hungry hippos".

    This is what happens when you don't welcome your new hippo overlords.

    Mass: Quantity has a quality all its own.

    Heuristics: The best is the enemy of the good.

    Paradox: Even outliers have bad days.

    Flare: Out, out, brief candle...

    Sociopaths: Succumb to plodding diligence.

    In keeping with the theme, I submit:

    Bureaucracy - Daddy needs a new pair of shoes.

    PS how will this help your case?
