We have decided not to start off this post by reminding you how terrible you all are at caption contests. Negative reinforcements like that, for instance, would be a bad way to get your child to be able to read more gooder, or your husband to stop being a total dick. It's just that we are always so surprised at how terrible you are at caption contests! You are the funniest, bestest, most terrible Terrible Ones in the whole wide Internet -- you are funnier than we are, and we're fucking hilarious! So we will not do that. Instead, we will ameliorate your Caption Contest impotence by inviting you to have a Face-Punching Contest instead, with this picture what Eric Cantor just tweeted out about these assholes waiting to "negotiate" (take their government and go home) with the Senate.
If you're going to nitpick casual use of technical terms, at least be thorough.
The distinction between reinforcement and punishment is the result of the intervention on a target behavior. If the behavior increases as a result of the intervention, it's reinforcement; if the behavior decreases, it's punishment.
Both punishment and reinforcement can be positive or negative. This depends on whether the intervention removes stimuli (negative punishment or reinforcement) or adds stimuli (positive punishment or reinforcement).
In this case, the editrix saying we suck at caption contests is really more of a discriminative stimulus, as it is the antecedent of the target behavior (posting funny captions?) rather than the consequence.
Okay, so it's two cheese and pepperoni, one extra cheese with half sausage and half mushrooms and onions, stuffed crust on all three, ranch dipping sauce, and two 2-liter bottles of Coke Zero. Right?

All was quiet in the House Rebuplican conference room seconds before the Crimson Permanent Assurance Building opened fire, blowing them all to tiny, tiny pieces. <a href="http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch\?v=NZeOUI2zEbo&lrm\;" target="_blank"> <a href="" rel="nofollow noopener" title="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZeOUI2zEbo&lrm;">http://www.youtube.com/watc..." target="_blank"> <a href="" rel="nofollow noopener" title="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZeOUI2zEbo&lrm;">http://www.youtube.com/watc..." target="_blank">" rel="nofollow noopener" title="www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZeOUI2zEbo&lrm;">www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZe...
