[hello]
Fill in the blank: "Carolyn was deliriously excited by the opportunity to search Julia's room because, better than even finding Julia's notebook on the experiment, the possibility existed that she would find ________, which Carolyn was certain Julia always had hidden in her room."
-
"...the possibility existed that she would find Waldo, Dr. Richard Kimble, stuff from Al Capone's vault, Holy Grail, Maltese Falcon, list of secret herbs and spices for Kentucky Fried Chicken, real Hitler Diaries, long-sought method of turning base metals into gold, Fountain of Youth, and Carolyn's virginity..."

Just so people know, a lot of those originally had "the" in front of them. A moderator needed to conserve space and didn't want to eliminate any of the jokes completely, I guess.

You might recall this from the rules for captions topic:
FROM NOW ON CAPTION POSTS ARE LIMITED TO 275 CHARACTERS.
Moderators will edit out blank space or redundant signatures & URLS in posts to conserve space-- we've openly stated this-- but we edit text when it violates a Forum guideline or, as in this case, an official rule.
He's not here at the moment, but it appears that MB chose to help you by trimming your caption instead of removing it outright. :)

And there's also:
THERE IS NO CHARACTER LIMITATION ON THE LENGTH OF THE SET UP (well, within reason and within the forum's guidelines). ONLY RESPONSES WILL BE LIMITED TO 275 CHARACTERS. But as there really isn't much need to repeat the entire set up in responses, 275 characters should allow much more than enough leeway to complete a phrase or fill in the blank(s). ;)

That's exactly what I did. ;) In fact, rather than remove them outright, I've edited several completions and fill ins for going over the 275 character limit. The code to display a warning is in place for the Caption This! boards, but I haven't gotten a chance to code it for this board.

(I'm sure Magnus meant to put that in his response, but it just slipped his mind.)

[lghy] But what a good thing it was that he didn't because then I would have had no choice but to edit something out entirely or remove the post completely. :(
