Manolo for the Brides

Knock-knock! Anybody there?

Last week I hit you with this rather astonishing image:

…and precisely one of you responded with a caption.

Of course, if it’s good, one is all you need. Luckily, that was the case here. Congratulaions to daisyj! She sent in the only entry, but in all honesty if I’d had a dozen to choose from, she would probably have won anyway with this one:

Even Ellie had to admit that holding a postmortem wedding had its drawbacks, but she did save a bundle on outfits for the attendants.

Well done, daisyj!

And for those of you wondering about the Olympic connection, follow the cut and find out.
(more…)

You all know the rules. I post a picture, you send me your best captions in comments, and next saturday I will declare a winner. For those of you confused about the Olympic connection, I will also explain that next saturday. Trust me, there is one.

In the meantime, hit me with your best shots on this:

Ready…set…snark!

You all know the rules. I post a pic. You come up with your best captions and post them as replies. Next saturday I declare a winner and we all have a good laugh.

And so, without further ado, here’s the image:

Ready…set…snark!

You all know how this works by now. I find a picture that amuses me in some way…often a slightly horrified way, but that’s a way, too. Anyway, I post it, you comment with your best captions, and next week I declare a winner.

This time I found a doozy of an image I just had to share with all of you. Aren’t you lucky? Take a look at this one:

Ready…set…snark!

You guys, you guys, you guys. You are amazing.

Last week I confronted you with this picture:

and you responded with eleven hilarious responses.

In the end, though, there can be only one winner. This week, it’s someone who touched the heart of the matter right away. Perhaps it’s how apt the caption was. Perhaps it’s the fact that she referenced one of the very few Broadway musicals that I truly love. Meh, I think it was just that it was wildly funny and approprite.

The winner is Jennie for this classic:

I feel pretty! Oh so pretty! I feel pretty and witty and gay!

Congratualtions, Jennie! And thanks to everyone who played.

Yes, it’s time once again to play Twistie’s Sunday Caption Madness! You all know how this works: I post a picture, you reply with your best captions, and next saturday I declare a winner to the joy and adulation of all. This image was sent to me by our own NtB and has haunted my dreams for the last several weeks. I think it’s time to share the nightmare with all of you.

Ready…set…snark!

Once again, you guys amaze, amuse, and generally delight me. Faced with this image

you came back at me with ten different captions to tickle the fancy. There can, however, be only one winner, and that is…the anonymous soul who came up with this beauty:

While photographs such as the one above were widely disseminated at the time, many historians continue to cast doubt on the exact events of the “Kleinfeld Death March”

Congratulations…whoever you are! And thanks to everyone who played.

Yes, once again it’s time to play Twistie’s Sunday Caption Madness! You guys know the drill: I post a picture, you reply with your best captions, and next saturday I declare a winner. And here’s the image.

Ready…set…snark!

I am not worthy, you guys. I hit you with this pic last week:

And you gave me some fabulously deranged captions for it. You all did a brilliant job, but there can be only one winner. This week it’s Emma for this particularly giggleworthy contribution:

“The bridesmaids, while amused by Chloe’s fascination with the cloud that looked like a ‘pretty pretty pony,’ were beginning to think that giving her that much valium before the wedding was a bad idea…”

Congratulations, Emma, and thanks to everyone who played!
