Turns out I'm just not enough a philistine to spot remove this person's wound on the chest, possibly mortal. To do so would have furthered the implication of food poisoning and, unpleasant as that can be, would have more mildly supported the humor, if I may be so bold. So I'm somewhat uneasy making light of this warrior's agony in pursuit of a laugh. However, I very much hope that the humor is broad enough to avoid being offensive. If not, then it merits low marks from those who've winced.

Discovered that the title wouldn't accept quotation marks, but doubled apostrophes did the trick.

LOL! I love this!

And... I've used quotation marks a bunch of times in titles. Not sure what went on there, but I'm glad you found a workaround.

First image that I opened in this challenge. We hound same places. How could one not?

We had different approaches and my picture goes some years back:

Good pp on the statue but I find the background too dark and I personally would have cropped some of the top and enhance the horizontality of the image.

will vote later
