Many thanks to everyone who entered Caption Contest 103, which challenged you to come up with the best replacement dialog for this awesome random comics panel:
The funniest lines in my opinion were:
- Watson Bradshaw: Evolve your way out of a body-bag mammals!
- MScat: “Say hello to my little arms!!”
- Pandademic: Do it! Bomb ‘em forward to the Stone Age!
- The Atomic Punk: “Cold blood and hot lead, baby!”
- Moognation: Dammit! I asked for a scatta gun, not a chatta gun!
- MartianBlue: LeRooaaarrrr jeannkinnsss!
- TheNate: Welcome to Kick Yourassick Park!
- X-stacy: Of course I’m gonna shoot you in cold blood! I’m a REPTILE.
- dblade: “Tombstones! Meet the Tombstones!”
As the overall winner, I chose the very last one submitted, proving once again it's (almost) never too late if your idea is funny! For making me laugh right out loud on a morning when I felt like dinosaur poop, the win goes to ... dblade!
You have to admit, that's a darn catchy tune with which to meet your doom.
Congrats to dblade and all our Finalists!
congrats dblade, now I can’t get that tune out of my head 🙂
Nice one dblade. Congrats!
I have to admit that little ditty was born from my subconscious mind this morning and I laughed out loud when I first thought of it. Good thing I had the presence of mind to add it to the contest. 🙂
Now what to ask for? I think I might go for a portrait to feed my vanity and immortalize myself in HeroMachine. 🙂
Congrats dblade. I guess the request makes sense. Since you’re looking at adding at least one item a week, if there was something else you wanted, you’d just, I don’t know, submit it to Jeff.
Still, congrats. Funny entry.
Nicely done dblade! Nicely done.
Congrats dblade!
Well done dblade, very funny. What I want to know though is when is the new contest being put up?
Congratulations! And thanks for making me laugh so much today.
Thanks to MScat too. I keep hearing your line in Pacino’s voice and it makes me snicker so hard.
Thanks all, but really its my dream-addled brain that should get the credit. 🙂
@ Myro (4): True. Ever since I started submitting items my contest goal has switched to getting a portrait done by Jeff. I didn’t expect to win at the Caption Contests but I’m glad I did since the Character Contests have some pretty stiff competition.
@dblade: That was good. Congrats!
good job all
congrats dblade and all the finalists!
Heh, some funny stuff all around, folks.
Oh, and Jeff, if I may make a suggestion? The joke here would be more obvious with little musical notes in the word bubble. 🙂
Well done dblade.
@Jack Zelger: A good point, but paleontologists largely agree that dinosaurs couldn’t carry a tune in a bucket, so the musical notes would be misleading. Somehow, I hear that caption in my head as a guttural chant at best. Maybe that’s just me.
@kaylin (7): If I may answer on Jeff’s behalf (and the general facetious tone in no way represents him), as I understand it the contests alternate. One week will be a character contest, the following week will be a caption contest. This gives each winner a week to bask in glory before being shoved rudely aside into the has-been pile by the next winner. Two weeks, really; dblade gets to bask from the 25th until the day the next caption contest winner is announced. It also allows Jeff to have a life outside of HM.
Oh, man! I have so little time to enjoy the throne! Where are the fine women and fine eats? Where are the bards to sing my praise? DANCE, MONKEYS, DANCE!!! DBLADE THE DEMANDER DEMANDS IT!
Congrats on the win! well done
Methinks it seems power has gone to dblade’s head.
