This format works best when your caption describes something being restrained or prevented from happening. The humor comes from the tension between wanting to do something and being held back from it.
Your text should focus on what's being contained or stopped. Keep captions short and punchy - single words or brief phrases often work better than long explanations. The visual does the heavy lifting, so let your text be direct.
