Caption Monkey 51: Nom nom nom ...

Posted by Alex in Animal, Caption Monkey on November 11, 2008 at 7:45 am



Photo: Bonnie Marsh via National Geographic Magazine – Thanks Marilyn!

Yum yum yum! It’s time for this week’s Neatorama and Hobotopia’s Caption Monkey game. But first, the story: that’s an uninvited guest that joined Bonnie Marsh for dessert during her Hawaiian vacation. The gecko scampered down the restaurant wall, took a lick, and then ran off! The photograph was voted one of National Geographic Magazine’s Top Shots of 2008.

Now on to the game: your task, should you choose to accept it, is to caption the photo. The funniest caption will win an original Laugh-Out-Loud Cat comic by Adam Koford. One caption per comment, please, but you can enter as many times as you like.

And don’t forget to check out Adam’s blog (and upcoming book). Good luck!

Update 11/12/08 – Adam has picked the winner! Congrats to ikillhobos who won with this caption:

“Yes Mr. Waiter, while I do admit this did technically solve the problem of the fly in my soup, I think we’ve moved on to an entirely different situation here. I’m gonna need to see the manager.”

    This is a rare glimpse of the gecko getting its daily sugar-fill. A discovery that ultimately lead to demystifying the secrets of its sticky food pads: secreting molasses.

    Even the Geico Gecko has been hit hard by the economic downturn; forced to now steal off the plates of those he once tried helping.
