One thing I do know is that stoic Shep is better for deadpan jokes and there is a lot of stoic Shep in ME2. So, if you happen to have a dry sense of humor, like I do, it's a gold mine. The one below, literally, the first thing that came to my mind was that she had to pee. Part of it is the very stoic look on her face w/ just a hint of frustration. I think this is where she has to make the decision to help Zaeed or save the workers. So, taking this image out of its context, but zeroing in only on her expression what’s the worst “funny every day thing” that could be going through her mind? This particular joke relies on irony to get the point across. Big bad Commander Shepard is in the middle of a mission in the middle of nowhere and then has to pee. Ho ho ho. But it also relies on honesty. Who hasn’t been in a situation where they were in the middle of nowhere and had to pee? Who hasn’t seen people order a ton of food and a diet coke at a fast food restaurant? The best humor is humor that people can relate to. Also, these screens w/ captions are “in jokes” as only people who played Mass Effect would really appreciate them. In jokes are typically viewed as being funnier as they create a bond between particular groups of people, in this case devotees of femShep. Anyway, that’s how I do it. Also, I’ve been writing a webcomic that is semi comedic for over ten years. Mind you, I’ve only done about 10 screens out of 2000 images I have on file and for most of those remaining images, I got nothing.
Please note. Reading or listening to someone explain humor is about the least funny thing you will ever experience in your life.
"Damn, I have to pee."
And we have gone waaaaay OT.
femShep rules!

Though there is some great screens coming from ME2, I think it is no accident that the majority of epic awesome screens are coming from ME1.

Good luck with finding out the facecode. I read the instructions on how to do it to get this face back. But all that math confused me more than anything. I'm a bit of a dunce.

They look farther away from the locker than usual for some reason...like Kaidan's trying to lead Shepard to the Captain's cabin or something XD

wow, chignon, awesome. jamie, i love your captions
so, i was gonna take and then post some more screenshots, but i appear to have fried my vid card - honest to god. it had been acting up a bit anyhow. guess my ME habits sped it on its way. thank goodness i had pretty much everything backed up on an external hard drive. i and my screenshotting may be MIA for a while (sigh)
here's the last few i one i took before the card died on me. i guess it was just too hot to handle:
