A 2 1/2 hour confirmation ceremony with a Bishop who thought he was the next great stand up comedian! If no one laughed at his jokes, he would say "that was a joke" then repeat what he had just said.

Oh my gosh, this is freakin' awesome! And I really do mean that. I didn't get a chance to vote in this challenge - SO wish I had. Really, even without the story (which is priceless) this just has that "trapped and I can't get out" hellish feel to it - and it's terribly amusing. Very nice work!!
I'm assuming this is some sort of church gathering? Since the boy at the front is looking thoroughly displeased with himself, and he's in the foreground and takes up a lot of pixel real estate, to coin a phrase, I'd have liked his face to be in just that bit sharper focus. I love the expression on the faces of the two adults is the middle ground, are they his parents? There are one or two other people in the shot just distracting me slightly, especially the adult immediately behind the boy.
This is absolutely excellent in a deadpan, non-forced way. I have no diea what the occasion is, but the expressions on the in-focus faces are borderline bizarre in context (whatever that context is) and it just strikes a chord with me. Well done.
