Hello, everyone! It’s time for Neatorama and Hobotopia’s Caption Monkey game. I don’t know the background story of this photo, the LiveJournal user who posted it only mentioned that it was taken in Seattle.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to provide the caption. Funniest caption wins an original Laugh-Out-Loud Cat cartoon by Adam Koford.

For inspiration, definitely check out Adam’s blog. Good luck!

Update 1/20/09 – Adam has picked the winner! Congratulations to Jay L. who won with this gem: “What!?! IT’s safer than pushing it with the car.”

    Before Sally could walk and pull her mother all over Seattle in a Radioflyer, her mother pushed her in a stroller from a Segway. Surprisingly, her mother was much thinner in those days.

    Your Mama’s so stupid she bought a $5,000 Segway to push you around in a $50 stroller.

    Dude, that doesn’t even make sense.

    No, when you were a baby. Like, instead of walking. Get it? Your mom, your mom’s so stupid…

    No, dude, I get it. It’s just dumb. No one would do that.

    Yeah, but, like, your mom’s so dumb she actually DID though. I found this photo.

    Shit.

    Apparently, this lady is a cancer survivor whose leg was amputated above the knee. She gets around using a Segway instead of a wheelchair. On this day, she happened to be babysitting her grandniece who is in the stroller.

    Doesn’t matter, Wilma – Pushing a baby stroller while on a Segway is reckless, and endangers the child! I’m sorry if “the lady is a cancer survivor whose leg was amputated above the knee.” Other amputees have managed to come up with saner ways to babysit.

    Tuck- Segways are more stable than you think. And she happens to be my aunt. Get bent.
