I really love this one, and - Chris - I really love the departure into cartoons!!! Idea: What if some "cartoon-resevoire" started using us for crowdsourcing - getting their funny/lucrative ideas from caption.me...They could make lots of money off of our free ideas. Hey, the New Yorker does it: They sell posters of caption-contest winners at 125 dollars a whack.
(I engaged in this process once on a micro-scale many years ago - briefly - when a greeting card company handed me some art, and paid me to come up with some stuff. My point being, sometimes the art is created BEFORE the humor/meaning is added.)
In a moment, I'll post a site that some might find interesting. It's a huge cartoon outlet with a search engine: www.cartoonstock.com It might not be the "cartoon reservoir" I was imagining (because the copy is already there)...but it could get the juices flowing a bit.
Any reactions to this, folks? I'd like to hear from people, especially anyone who agrees with me.
Anyway, THIS IS A GREAT CAPTION, AND A FUN DEPARTURE INTO CARTOONS. Thanks! Greg
PS A less ambitious question: How can we get a few more cartoons funneled into this site?
Ha Ha. When I wrote that, Mr. Dome, it was only Mike Winner's vote I was referring to as "the consensus." Now, it looks like you and Andrea would also be in favor of more cartoons, too. Thanks for your input!
