Literal Caption Contest #3!

It’s been a while since we had a good old-fashioned literal caption contest. Let’s do it again!

Here’s the question: What’s the best LITERAL caption for this New Yorker Caption Contest cartoon?

* * *

Contest cartoon from 6/27/11:

110627

[YOUR LITERAL CAPTION HERE]

* * *

How it works:

1. Send submissions to themonkeysyouordered@gmail.com, along with your name and location (as detailed or as vague as you want). I’ll be accepting submissions until 5pm EST on Friday, 7/15.

2. I’ll post the best captions early next week.

3. Everyone will vote for their favorite, and I’ll announce the winner at the end of next week. Then you’ll brag to your friends about your literal-captioning prowess.

(Note: For repeat submissions, I’ll post the first one sent in. If there are variations on a common theme, I’ll post the first one that I think phrases the caption best.) 

Looking forward to your submissions!
