caption contest, superhero with phone car

It may be late on Monday, but you will get your weekly caption contest!   (Well, technically, there’s no guarantee, but I’ll at least make an effort.)   🙂  That said, here ya go.

This week’s photo is of a man in a superhero-type costume who is standing next to a car shaped like a giant phone.  I have no idea of the actual context of this picture, but that’s no matter — we will make up something.   I suspect there will be a lot of ideas for this one, including some puns (which may be unfortunate, depending on your preferences).  So let’s get to it!

caption contest, Big Belly Deli

This week I’ve got a funny picture for the caption contest.  There’s a man of rotund proportions standing outside a restaurant / cafe called Big Belly Deli.  Yeah, the joke is obvious, but there are a lot of caption possibilities with this one.  If you get stuck trying to think of something to write, consider what you’d say in that situation, or suppose you were the one taking the picture, or suppose you’re the announcer for a commercial.  Think outside the box to come up with original captions.

funny quotes about Mondays, part 2

One of the more popular pages here at Buffet o’ Blog is random Monday quotes.  Since that was published, I’ve come across even more humorous quotes about Mondays.  So consider this post part 2.

There is a technical meteorological term for a sunny, warm day which follows two rainy days.  It’s called a “Monday”.

“Boy, is it ever Monday!” ~ Strong Bad

“I’m far too cool to come in on Monday mornings.” ~ Turtle Dundee, when he was taking a vacation day on Monday

“Mondays are stupid!” ~ Mango-Man

“I decree Monday as part of the weekend.   And while I’m busy decreeing I’m also gonna add Friday into the weekend as well.   It’s really better off that way… since no one really gets much done on Friday anyway.  🙂  That just leaves Tuesday through Thursday… so I can deal with that!  Especially since I’ve also decreed that the work day shall not start until 10!  So along with the mandatory 2-hour lunch and leaving at 4 (in order to miss the traffic of course) I think I’ve found a good “balance” of life and work… especially when you factor in the new improved longer bathroom breaks and the personal masseuse that now comes standard with all work cubes — they stand behind you while you work and massage your shoulders and back so you can be more productive.   They also run short errands for you to bring you other essentials to you being productive (for example snacks, TEA, Legos!).” ~ Mango-Man, 9/2/08

Easter eggs falling from the sky

Speaking of Easter eggs, a couple of years ago a church in South Carolina dropped 50,000 plastic Easter eggs from an airplane, for people to find.  They claimed that some eggs had prizes fit for adults.   As you might expect, we had an interesting discussion based on this:

That would have been hilarious, a field full of people waiting for the eggs to arrive, and then 50,000 eggs falling from the sky like pastel colored hail. I can see the news headlines now — “Easter bunny takes to sky, kills three”, “When Eggs go bad, the Easter Weekend Massacre”, and a Mythbusters episode where they not only prove that the Easter Bunny, Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy are real, but they can kill you too.   And when you say with prizes fit for adults, I’m imagining a TV wrapped in a giant eggshell, and a couch, car, and boat done the same way. ~ Turtle Dundee, 4/9/07

Now I have a bonus Easter-related link for you.  This story is about a couple who hid real, hard-boiled Easter eggs around their house for their kids.  They hid two dozen, but found only 13.   I’ll leave the hilarious explanation for your reading, because it’s really funny how he explains what happened.  Here’s the link: Smells like Easter.  [link broken]
