caption contest, sumo wrestler intro

Are you ready for this week’s caption contest?  I know some of you are, because I actually got e-mail letting me know there wasn’t one posted on-time.   (It’s nice to be missed!)  The reason for the delay is because of an electrical malfunction at the Buffet o’ Blog headquarters, preventing me access to my computer and the Internet for a few days.  Now that it’s resolved, things can return to normal (or a reasonable approximation thereof).

Since this week’s caption contest is late, here’s an extra special photo.  And by special, I mean “lots of humor potential”.  It’s a sumo wrestler, performing some sort of introductory dance.  Let the humor begin!

FYI, some sites may frown upon “potty humor”, where you reference passing gas and such.  Let it be known that your humor is welcome here.   🙂

Halloween costume for 2012

the end is near - Homer SimpsonIt may be a little too early to think of my Halloween costume for 2012, but I thought of it anyway.  :)  Since 2012 is supposedly the end of the world, for Halloween I’m going to have my hair all messed up, not shave for a few days previous, and wear a giant sign that says “THE END IS NEAR!”  It’ll be like one of those old-school doomsday prophets.

You could also do this at work on a Monday.

Obviously this picture doesn’t quite do it justice, but it’s close enough…

It’s time for the next weekly caption contest, and do I have an unusual picture for you!  I may regret doing this, but I’m going to post a photo that has the potential for numerous puns.   (I’m not a huge fan of puns, if it isn’t obvious.  But I know some people are.  You can’t say I never do anything for my peoples.)  So write funny or punny captions for this picture of a guy in a pig costume getting arrested by the police.

new alarm clock technology

There’s a new clock radio called Ambient Mist that can also get news and data feeds like weather that are transmitted over a nation-wide wireless network.  But what’s even cooler is that the device has its own e-mail address, so friends can send you messages that appear on-screen.

Imagine the fun you could have with sending messages to people’s alarm clock!  Things like:

“Get up, you lazy bum!”
“Are you gonna be late AGAIN?”
“I pity the fool!”
“The weather forecast is chili today and hot tamale.”
“I’ve got gas!”
