New Yorker Anti-Caption Contest #463






















NOTE:  Someone took it upon them self to spew forth winners for this contest. This is both humbling and welcome, like someone stealing a car you never drive. To be candid, I am unmoved by the commentary. It's a little self serving and pedestrian. But whatever. Also, PLEASE note that I did not submit the anti-cap selected as the honorable mention. I do occasionally submit caps but never under my actual fake name. Who knows? Maybe this will inspire me to crank out results in a more timely manner. This would ensure that Dylan-related caps get their due and JohnnyB is put in his place. I have been pre-occuied with important matters. Very hush-hush. Remember, I post these bastardized results...because I can. Don't judge me for not judging you. --al in la     

WINNERS

FIRST PLACE
"So ... Giddy Up ... Seabiscuit!"--Dr Sumguy (JUDGE'S COMMENT: I once knew the niece of Laura Hillenbrand, the author of Seabiscuit. We were members of an awkward love tetrahedron that was never resolved. At the time I had not read the book, so I thought it was about the culinary techniques of pirates for many years. That's probably why she never liked me.)

SECOND PLACE
"Why the long face? Oh, that's right. We're stranded on this island. And, you're a horse."--Kathy H (JUDGE'S COMMENT: The first time I heard the classic bar joke Kathy is referencing, I was in a Cessna 172 flying over the Rocky Mountains. It was my first time in a non-commercial plane, and the pilot thought it would be hilarious if he let go of the controls. As I screamed while trying to avoid crashing into mountains with the co-pilot controls, the pilot laughed and told me bad bar jokes.)

THIRD PLACE
"May as well start fucking each other"--Anonymous (JUDGE'S COMMENT: As usual, Anonymous says what we're all thinking. From personal experience I can tell you this line doesn't work with most women unless you're trapped on a ski lift for four hours in a blizzard. Not a bad way to get laid.)

HONORABLE MENTIONS
"I'm sick of your horrible puns and your dirty jokes. Keep spamming my blog with your pathetic comments while I refuse to judge you, scumbags."--al in la (JUDGE'S COMMENT: That's what I'm here for, Al. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.)

Barges? We ain’t got no barges! We don’t need no barges! Well, maybe one barge would be good.

"Is Radosh looking for a new gig?"

Dr Sumguy said...

Dear Judge. Great job your honor. Both boneguy and I, thought your comments were clever and funny. I haven't ruled out the possibility that you're actually al in la, but your spelling is better.
