Caption Monkey 67: Mum’s the Word

By Ape Lad in Caption Monkey on Jan 19, 2010 at 2:49 pm

Alex has been kind enough to hand me the keys to the weekly Caption Monkey contest, so I thought I’d start this party with a photo of my own. I won’t provide the context for this one though, because I’m intrigued to see what our intrepid crew of comical photo captioneers will come up with.

The rules are simple: the best caption wins a monkey drawing by yours truly, the ever-lovin’ Ape Lad. Place your caption in the comment section. One caption per comment, please, though you may enter as many times as you’d like. You have approximately 24 hours to bring the funny.

If you have a photo you think would be a good candidate for this contest, add it to the group pool here on flickr. If I use your photo, I’ll send you a surprise!

UPDATE!

We have a winner, and it’s #28, Seppukku, with “I’m telling you guys, my infallible plan will totally get us in the ladies bathroom!” Congratulations, and thanks for playing everyone! See you next week!

    Pledge week at the Koford household.

    It’s an age old tradition where parents assemble their offspring and tell them that due to the harsh economic climate, they can only afford to keep 3 out of the 4 children. Obviously the most well-behaved ones get to stay.

    It’s a surprisingly effective parenting technique.

    Both impulsive and indiscriminate, Travis the school bully spotted a token of affection on the 4th grade teacher’s desk and inflicted his unique brand of unholy terror onto any child he suspected of being Miss Harrison’s “pet.” In the aftermath, as the victims stood before Vice Principal Larson, the Granny Smith in question was hesitantly placed at their feet. No one had the courage — or senselessness, for that matter — to claim ownership.
