Last week, we asked readers to submit possible captions for this picture:

Let’s have a look at what our readers came up with, and vote on the finalists.
Labor and Employment Federal Litigation Trends 2026
Drawing on more than a decade of data, the report equips law firms and corporate legal teams with actionable insights to better assess risk, refine strategy, and anticipate outcomes in today’s evolving workplace disputes.
Here are the finalists for our latest caption contest, many of which were pretty great:
A. Those clerks better take GREAT fucking notes.
B. Roberts: “If you could speak just a little quieter, Counsel, it would be appreciated.”
C. I am just mimicking my friend, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
D. 1 pube… 2 pubes… 3 pubes… *snore*
E. Waiting for Ginni to fall asleep so I could watch #Confirmation was a bad move.
Please vote for your favorite caption in our poll, which will be open through WEDNESDAY, MAY 4, at 11:59 P.M. (EST). Thank you very much!
