Contest No. 114 starts right now.
Briefly, here are the details: I’ll supply a drawing of one of my old
Your caption (or captions) will be posted after I review your submission.
There is no limit on the number of captions you can enter for each drawing. Entries will be accepted and posted for one week, after which a winner will be announced and the winning caption will be printed. Below that I will also print my original caption.
The cut-off time and date for you to send in your captions is midnight Tuesday, February 28, 2017.
I will be the sole judge. The winning caption will be the one I judge to be the funniest one submitted (not necessarily the one that matches or comes closest to my original caption). Additional rules and regulations, for those of you who need such things, can be found here.
Below is the drawing that needs your funny captions. This is a really old drawing of mine, going back many, many decades — it was even finished off with a brush rather than a pen, since I was experimenting with such things a long time ago. As for the subject matter, well, you know what we gag cartoonists always like to say: “When you have nothing else, you can’t go wrong if you throw in a psychiatrist.” Have fun with it.
