Caption Contest March 24 - March 27

Caption Contest March 24 - March 27

Congratulations to FrostyJack for winning the last contest, and thanks to FrostyJack and Tamia for the privilege of hosting this installment.

Also, thanks to all who participate in this laugh-provoking and smile-prompting activity.

This installment's image (which is under the "Rules") is one of my favorites. I hope you enjoy it and the opportunity to caption it.

—— Rules ——

The object of this game is to come up with the most humorous, impactful, thoughtful, original caption for the displayed photo that will collect the highest number of "likes"

Submissions can be of any type — caption, limerick, de-movitational, poem, speech — whatever inspires you to write something for the photo.
Contestants may submit more than one entry, but each must be in a separate post.

Important: Regardless of whether you submit an entry, please "like" any posts you feel deserve it!

The thread starter is the moderator and must post his or her original photo at the start of the thread.

In an effort to keep the pictures fresh, respondents have 72 hours to submit their entries, after which time the number of "likes" will be totaled to determine a winner. In case of a tie the thread starter must choose his or her favorite to break the tie.

The winner of that contest will be notified by personal message (PM) by the current contest host and will become responsible for posting the next original work to be captioned.

If the winner does not feel he or she has content to use for the contest or for any reason, he or she can decline via PM to the host and the second most liked entrant will be designated to host the contest

This installment of the contest will close on Tuesday, March 27 @ 4:10PM EDT (GMT-4)

Congratulations to sledger, who submitted this victorious caption:

My mother tortoise never to smile at strangers.

I tip my hat to all who submitted captions which prompted us to grin, smile, laugh, groan and sometimes think "I wish I'd written that."

And I eagerly await the future photos and captions.

Best wishes, everyone.
Stu
