Cartoon Caption Contest!
Normally on Fridays I do a phrase auction , however, it’s been a really long week and I needed to lighten the mood a bit. Also, it seems that the novelty of the idea has worn off a bit and it might not be something a lot of you are interested in. So for this week at least, I’m calling an audible and switching it up. This week, we’re having a cartoon caption contest.
The idea is pretty simple, create a caption (or question and answer speech baloons) for the cartoon below (generously provided by Pops from ToonRefugee.com). Anyone who submits a caption will receive an entry into the drawing at the end of the month (the announced prizes so far include a custom cartoon from ToonRefugee and 125×125 ad spot on this site with more to come I promise) and just like last week, the winner will get 3 extra entries. But wait, there’s more! Since so many people have been requesting specific shows in the Lessons on Blogging series, the winner will also get to choose the next show I cover! How’s that for a fun prize package? The deadline for submissions will be Monday at noon and the winner will be chosen by Pops and myself and announced on Tuesday. Have fun, but any submissions deemed inappropriate (f-bombs, hate speech, etc) will be deleted and will not count as a submission. Multiple submissions are allowed but will not result in an extra entry to the end of the month drawing.
Whew I feel like a lawyer spelling out all those rules. Anyway, on to the fun part! Create a caption (or dialog balloons) for the following cartoon:
Enjoy!
Update: And the winner is… Adam’s “Good luck getting down.” Adam, drop me a line and let me know which show you’d like me to cover next!
“Jenny is at her Mom’s house. I expect her back around three.”
“I was here first, so I’m king of the mountain. Nyah, nyah, nyah”
Hah, with seo in mind lets imagine it this way

“Good luck getting down”
Crap, I just accidentally deleted a couple of comments. If you don’t see yours here, please comment again and accept my appologies. I got a little over zealous with the delete button.
No no no, see at the old oak tree you should have taken a LEFT…

“Sorry, you still only have PageRank 3.”
This “Pot-On-The-Mountain” Is Occupied Find another one for yourself!
“I bought the keyword GURU and all I get is one visitor every 10 years?!?”
@Ben don’t tell me its all my fault you removed the comments. And don’t even think to penalize me for that (just teasing).
Gee… A guy climbs a mountain to get some peace, and now every man and his dog is coming up here!
Well this post is for two reason, first to take the lead of top commentator, take that Ruchir.
Second, here is my caption since I just got an iPhone Friday – “Did you bring my iPhone?”
“Hello. I’m looking for the barbershop.”
OLD WISE MAN “How did I beat you?”
HANGING DUDE “You — You’re too fast.”
OLD WISE MAN “Do you think my being faster, stronger has anything to do with my muscles in this place?”
HANGING DUDE is frustrated, still unable to catch his breath.
OLD WISE MAN “Do you believe that’s air you are breathing now?”
Lol Alan, I love it! I think that would have been the winner had you gotten it in sooner. In any case, well played sir.
Well, your choice is your choice…but I really don’t understand how Adam’s comment is the best one here.
Anyways, congrats to you Adam.
