New Yorker Anti-Caption Contest #433



WINNERS 
FIRST PLACE 
"This works ... If you don't want to go nowhere!"--Dr Sumguy(JUDGE'S COMMENT: This wins because it is the very thought that hits me around 4 a.m. while I'm pecking away at my keyboard, then jump over to YouTube to watch vintage hockey fights, then over to BuzzFeed to look at adorable cat pictures then over to other sites to look at, you know, other stuff... [You get the picture.] Appropriate for the image, philosophical AND it has bad grammar.  Not at all funny, but this speaks to me. )

SECOND PLACE 
˙ƃop ǝɥʇ pǝǝɟ oʇ uɹnʇ ɹnoʎ s,ʇI—ʞɔnɯs (JUDGE'S COMMENT: "A"for effort.  Not the first time someone has entered an upside-down cap but we're left to wonder what, exactly, they are going to feed the dog and how do you get the words to go upside down.)

THIRD PLACE
"They call him boneguy because, well...he won the real contest."--Anonymous (JUDGE'S COMMENT: Maybe he did, maybe he didn't.  Around here that matters not, but I give this props the way an actor who doesn't give a shit about the awards shows up on Oscar night because it is important to other people. Also, not to sound bitter, but I stopped caring about  that thing after I entered something that should have won but didn't.) 

HONORABLE MENTION
,,˙sᴉɥʇ op uɐɔ ʎpoqʎu∀,,--Anonymous (JUDGE'S COMMENT: No me. So...)

If this is the New Yorker cartoon storage room, where is the desert and the deserted island?--JohnnyB (JUDGE'S COMMENT: You can see the wheels were turning and, yes, J.B. makes a valid point. Still, you can not store a desert or a deserted island in a storage room. You just can't Johnny. As always: thanks for playing.)
