WINNERS
FIRST
PLACE
Once
again, Mary berates herself for brown-bagging it.--Satireguy
(JUDGE'S COMMENT: It seems,
sex-wise, Mary is unable to harvest what the earth brings forth. She
throws a bag over some creep's head and screws him silly. Now she
feels like shit. This is not unprecedented. Why she parades him
around in public is a mystery. If you have to, give him cab fare, but
send him on his way.)
SECOND
PLACE
Opposite
day in Saudi Arabia.--smuck
(JUDGE'S COMMENT: Which means he is one of
several husbands she is permitted to have and she, of course, is
driving home because he's not allowed to drive. And yes they both
drink whiskey and love baseball.)
THIRD
PLACE
"For
once I'd like to meet a guy who doesn't come with baggage or isn't a
total douche bag." --
LR (JUDGE'S
COMMENT: And if you did, you would chase him away with your constant
whining. And what makes you think a baggage-free, non-douche-bag
would be interested in you?)
HONORABLE
MENTIONS
"So
this is the future ... Bring your Own Bag ... (Ordinance
#28877)!"--Dr
Sumguy (JUDGE'S COMMENT:
Would work better if it was a plastic bag, but then you'd have issues
with possible asphyxiation. Like many people, I bring my own bags and
leave them in the car.)
"Hello,
Kathy H. My name is Anonymouse."--Anonymouse (JUDGE'S
COMMENT: Maybe Kathy will give him a link—if you know what I mean.)
"Why
don't you let me take a look at your bank account and I'll decide if
you're ugly."--cta
(JUDGE'S COMMENT: And if
he checks out he can make a deposit—right? [Remember: substansial
penalties for early withdrawal]. A statement on how everything is
negotiable. Noted.)
"So
'McAfee' ... Tell me about your quote ... 'If you have the winning
cards, why cheat'!"--Dr
Sumguy (JUDGE'S COMMENT:
Because no one really wins until someone admits they lost.)
"You're
kinda cute, but I prefer plastic."
--Jim
Cavanaugh (JUDGE'S
COMMENT: Translation: She prefers a man who is shallow, superficial
and produces toxic fumes when burned.)
"Jeff
Bagwell,
you crazy bastard! How are you?"--Kathy
H (JUDGE'S
COMMENT: Evoking a veteran ball player who was nicknamed “Bags,”
Kathy reaches way back, deep to left field and comes up with a
classic. “A” for effort.)
"Murray
Langston, you crazy bastard, how are you?"--Unknown
Comic (JUDGE'S COMMENT: Would have been slightly better if the
signature didn't give it away.)
"NSA,
huh? What color are my panties?"--Anonymous
(JUDGE'S
COMMENT: To this Hannibel Lecter takes a few sniffs and says: You
use Evian skin cream, and sometimes you wear a black lacy thong from
Victoria's Secret, but not today.)
The
only decent thing I did when I worked as a postal clerk was to haul
your picture down off the wall near the cage where I used to
work.--Angus
Podgorny (JUDGE'S
COMMENT: Lyrics from the Dylan song, “Up To Me” which was bumped
from “Blood on the Tracks” and later released my Roger McGuinn.
Includes the lines “I've only got me one good shirt left, and it
smells of stale perfume.” Angus continues his quixotic quest to
out-Dylan me. Never gonna happen, buddy.)
"I
picked up my bag, I was lookin' for a place to hide."--Obligatory
Dylanu (JUDGE'S COMMENT: No sale.
This is from The Band's classic song “The Weight.” They toured
with Dylan, of course, but there is no evidence Bob ever sang this
song. Also, the line is “I WENT lookin' for a place to hide” and
there's no “u” in Dylan. Tisk, tisk.)
"Oh,
I know. Those winning entries last week were great, but I thought
this was the Anti-Caption Contest."--Girl
at Bar (JUDGE'S COMMENT: Well
obviously it's not the “Anti-Crap” contest or we wouldn't get
this kind of stuff.)
This
isn't part of the caption, but has anyone else found it absolutely
impossible to enter one into the New Yorker's contest? EVERY time I
enter one it somehow gets lost in their system and never shows up in
the list of my submitted entries. Very frustrating.--John
(JUDGE'S COMMENT: Okay. Calm
down. They don't want you. We do. You're always welcome here, John.)
Try
entering a funny one.--Anonymous
(JUDGE'S COMMENT: Wow. Entered right after John's cry-baby cap.
Ignore this John, keep doing what you're doing.)
"I
don't know if can take one more week of this."--Anonymous
(JUDGE'S COMMENT: You can and
you will.)
Three
contests unjudged. Three orphaned months ago. It's no wonder you
don't show your face, al.--boneguy
(JUDGE'S COMMENT: I've said it before:
Don't judge me for not judging you.)

I don't know. Perhaps it was you 'out of the fold' quality.
"your"
This is cool!
