caption contest, Santa parade in NYC

For this week’s caption contest, we’re going to feature a Christmas / holiday themed picture.  Here is a parade of Santa Clauses, walking down the street in New York City.  (NEW YORK CITY?!?)  So what is the purpose of it?  Is there a special occasion, or is it a secret mission?  Is it a conspiracy?  What are the onlookers thinking?  What should be done about this situation?

caption contest, overweight woman at Burger King

It’s time for another caption contest, and I’ve been hearing it doesn’t need to be late this week.  So here goes…

This week’s photo features a man and woman eating at the same table.  The man’s T-shirt could potentially be offensive to the woman, for obvious reasons.  There’s also the fact that they’re at Burger King, which is not exactly a health food type restaurant.  It’s up to you to write a funny caption to explain what either of these people might be thinking or about to say.  Or you can make a joke about the situation.   The only requirement is that it’s funny (and clean).

caption contest, man and dog begging

Well, if it isn’t time for another caption contest!  We haven’t even exhausted the last one yet, but surely some of you can handle two at a time, right?  Anyway, this week’s photo is of a man and a dog begging for food.  Why do you suppose they’re begging?  What might they be thinking?  What might a passerby think?  Or what kind of joke can you make about it?

The Comedy Ninja

The other day there was a spam comment here in the form of a trackback (link from another blog), and it said:

“This post was mentioned on Twitter by The Comedy Ninja, Chad_Lambert.”

I don’t think I’ve ever referred to myself as The Comedy Ninja, but it has a nice ring to it.   Is it possible to have a secret identity even to yourself?  Am I secretly a comedian without even knowing it?  I’m not a comedian in real life, though I have played one on the Internet.  And there was that time when I was but a child and I told my parents I would be a comedian when I grew up.  They just laughed and laughed, so I knew I was off to a good start…
