Larry and Sergey from Google made a surprise appearance at the G1 unveiling today, and they arrived on… rollerblades. Hoo boy. It’s time for a caption contest.
My attempt: “No, we’re not crazy billionaires insulated from the real world, completely cut off from what’s cool and hip. Now everybody, grab your rollerblades! Dippin’ Dots and bowl cuts are on us!”
Surely, you can do better.

Man at the back – “How much Co2 do Google server farms contribute to global warning”

crowd grow restless “How much Larry”
Larry – “Serge, I told you the ‘ooowu look google has gone all green’ would be harder sell than weapons of mass destruction.
Lets make a break for it. Skate man Skate like you’ve never skated before.

Saturday, September 27, 2008 at 1:29 AMSeriously Gizmodo? Those aren’t Rollerblades. They’re speed skates. The World Inline Championships for speed skating were recently held in Spain this month. Recreational Rollerblades may be a thing of the past and quite laughable, but that’s not what they’re wearing. Comparing them to Dippin’ Dots and bowl cuts just shows your ignorance.
