Talk:Captain Obvious

From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia.

This is a talk page for the article about Captain Obvious!

“He isn't even in the military”

~ Godfrey Jones on Captain Obvious

[edit] Potential Change?

Is this where we request edits? If so... "This could be because Captain Obvious has failed to apprehend or destroy Professor Subtle in any way." to " This could be because Captain Obvious has failed to apprehend, comprehend or destroy Professor Subtle in any way. " 12.2.08

“Judging by the lair's diagram, it consists of a series of booby traps which could potentially injure someone...or worse.”

   ~ Captain Obvious on the lair 

Change to: “Judging by the lair's diagram, it consists of a series of tubes which could potentially injure someone...or worse.”

   ~ Captain Obvious on the internets

Also the "Ican't Belive It's not butter" quote should be changed to "I can't belive it's not hitler Resulting in:

“It looks like Hitler,it tastes like Hitler, it's used like Hitler, yet it doesn't appear to actually be Hitler.”

   ~ Captain Obvious on I can't believe it's not hitler

[edit] America

It should be obvious specially to Captain Obvious that America isn't a fucking country shouldn't it?

[edit] Is this a question on Captain Obvious?

Why hasn't Captain Obvious stated that he is Captain Obvious due to his great ability to be obvious?

That is correct, Captain Obvious does have the ability of being obviouos. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_shit%2C_Sherlock. This gag needs to be flamed like the Russian Reversal quotes. --AmericanBastard 07:17, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Definitely not an assortment of entries

This is the talk page for the Uncyclopedia article known as "Captain Obvious".

I should point out that in the quotes ("If a tree falls in the woods...etc"), "paradox" is spelt without it's middle "a".

Looks like the UKers hit this article. It's always so subtle. "We're not jealous of the US, we just think Bin Laden is misunderstood and race-mixers should be done away with."

Idea: change the featured article template to make it obvious (in the style of Captain Obvious). Or would that be going overboard? KaloFoxfire 20:38, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

Question: Huh? Picklefork 23:19, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

I mean like how Morse Code has all its templates changed to morse code, and AAAA! has its in all A's. What I'm suggesting (or not suggesting, as it may be going overboard), is having the Featured Article template down at the bottom read something like "This article, Captain Obvious, is a featured article! This means that it was featured on the front page, which is the main page of Uncyclopedia!" And so on and so forth. Obviously, it would be much better written than that. KaloFoxfire 13:20, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

On second fourth I mean third fourth fifth thought, it -would- be going overboard. If this article was about being obvious or something, then it might be appropriate. But this is about Captain Obvious. So forget I said anything. KaloFoxfire 12:47, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

And now, the greatest question of our age; if Captain Obvious and [[1]] were to meet, how many universes would be destroyed and how many issues would it take? 67.161.116.49 03:55, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

Perhaps one could add the following once the page becomes unprotected?

“Xenogears are gears that are xeno.”

~ Captain Obvious on Xenogears

What was wrong with the SW stuff? - Sir Sikon [formerly known as Guest] 18:40, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

I love Captain Obvious. Just wanted to point that out. My 15 minutes of fame. Dumitru 19:58, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] why isn't...

this article in the self-reference category?

[edit] Errors

Penis is spelled pinis. Is that on purpose? Also the arm and pinis aren't internal organs

• Fucking DUH!!! This user has stated the obvious.

  [edit] Why...

  Is Captain Obvious all washed out now? He was just fine in Techinicolor.--Witt, of UNion Entertain me* 19:56, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

  Because Captain America is bias. Premier Tom Mayfair 20:47, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

  [edit] Fucking Fantastic

  Great job. Quadzilla99 16:35, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

  [edit] Obvious Man

  This is a sad rip-off of obvious man.

  • They are both sad ripoffs of Vegeta

  “I'm not even that stupid”

  [edit] THE Top Article of '06?

  This is the top article of '06? It was good but there are others that are much better and funnier. The French Revolution didn't even make the list!

  [edit] This section is about the main article

  This article is about Captain Obvious.

  No shit, Sherlock. --AAA! (AAAA) 10:25, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

  [edit] I just heard...

  ...Captain Obvious (when asked about Sparta):

  "THIS...IS...SPARTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"

  Seems kinda obvious.

  [edit] This is a bit of a big change to propose

  ...but I think this article could do with a serious dose of (don't laugh) subtlety. As people have said, this is the Captain Obvious article, not the Obviousness article, so our humour doesn't have to mach the style of the subject. Things like the Titanic image I like, things like "Mr. Obvious has Obvious as a last name" I can't help feeling are a little.. trivial, and poorly thought-out. So, even though it's still pretty sub-par example, I'd like to see more of the "That looks quite dangerous" on the subject of knife-throwing, or "If you're going to go skydiving, you'll probably want a parachute".

  Just one man's opinion, of course --85.210.163.133 13:15, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

  [edit] Clerking for SCOTUS?

  Recent pronouncement of Captain Obvious in KSR v. Teleflex:

  We build and create by bringing to the tangible and palpable reality around us new works based on instinct,simple logic, ordinary inferences, extraordinary ideas, and sometimes even genius.

  Oooh, that word "palpable" just sends chills up and down my spine. Imagine the horror if we only brought things to tangible reality....--Unowa 03:35, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

  [edit] “It does exactly what is says on the tin.”

  Is this supposed to be deliberately misquoted into grammatical nonsense or is it just an obvious typo?

  [edit] Qupte

  Can someone add this? "... there were 50 planes and now there are 100 planes. And that's almost twice as many planes." - Teh Captain...

  [edit] Should we make an Unquotable page for all the Captain Obvious quotes?

  If they stay in the article, they'll just clutter up the page. --General Insineratehymn 22:18, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

  [edit] The REAL Captain Obvious...

  Guess you guys missed this guy...

  http://myspace.com/captainxavierobvious Captain Xavier Obvious' myspace.

  Apparantly he's part of a super league???

  [edit] Captain Obvious and Captain Oblivious

  How can Captain Obvious and Captain Oblivious be arch-enemies? Captain Oblivious would be oblivious to the fact that his arch-enemy is Captain Obvious and that he is the arch-enemy of Captain Obvious, and Captain Obvious would state, well, the obvious and say that Captain Oblivious would be oblivious to Captain Obvious, meaning they can't be rivals.

  Or maybe I'm just stating the obvious.

  Or maybe Captain Oblivious would take a disliking to Captain Obvious, but is oblivious to the fact that Captain Obvious can beat the crap out of him.

  This is uncyclopedia. Logic is suspended until further notice. R3tr0r0ck3r 17:01, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

  [edit] Espanish Version

  Excuze me, I'm an emisary of the spanish version of Uncyclopedia: The Inciclopedia. I came here with my inferior uses of the english to say that we already have an article for Captain Obvious in our Wiki. Check this out. I just pay to some Administrator put this [[es:Capitán Obvio]] at the end of the article. Thank you very much, Manolo.

  I'm not an op, but done. –—Hv (talk) 6/03 19:38

  Thank you, señor
