Take me to your weeder. I'm sorry , leader

funny - dc-alien-z, Apr 27, 2011

ray your caption is always the best, but alas, I keep trying. - amykay, Apr 27, 2011

Oh , amykay , I am now very embarrassed , but happy that you have massaged my ego sufficiently to send me to bed with a happy thought , thank you. - ray76, Apr 27, 2011

I can't understand your caption... though :) - cogumela, Apr 27, 2011

It is a "play" on words Laura - "weeder" and "leader" - ian-hill, Apr 27, 2011

It probably doesn't translate well in Spanish - sanlee, Apr 27, 2011

"take me to your leader" is a cliche representing what a alien would say to the first person they meet. - Leatha, Apr 27, 2011

brilliant caption in English Ray :) - --Jen--, Apr 27, 2011

Answer 4

I'm free to go to anywhere I want.

Soy libre para ir adonde quiera

Why not "dondequiera"? - 0074b507, Apr 27, 2011

Gracias, Qfreed :) - Fidalgo, Apr 27, 2011

No, I'm afraid that dondequiera works in a different way. "Dondequiera que" estés, "dondequiera que" vaya... But it does not make sense here. Soy libre para ir adonde quiera. Well done, Fidalgo! :) - cogumela, Apr 27, 2011

Gracias, Cogumela :) - Fidalgo, Apr 27, 2011

Les presento al señor X, el cabecilla y el sumo coordinador de 'La gran evasión.' Desgraciadamente, parece que este ensayo no ha ido según lo previsto...

I'd like to introduce "Mr. X," the mastermind and the chief coordinator of "The Great Escape." Unfortunately, it seems that this rehearsal has not quite gone according to plan...
