Wicked caption contest
The North Coast Journal and its weekly comic strip Seven-O-Heaven are teaming up to offer a caption contest based on local author Amy Stewart’s new book, Wicked Bugs. Above is the official Humboldt Herald entry.
Your mission, should you be bored enough to accept it, is to author your own one-panel comic to be included in next week’s Journal. Hell, we’ll even throw in copies of this issue’s featured books.
Sent seven, seemed appropriate.
Woah! Look at the ovipositor on that larva!
Gross! I turned the pages and there is spooog on all the bug pictures! Must be a spicific bum in town.
Whoa! Ann Coulter will do anything for publicity.
Gromphadorhina Arkleytia…I wonder if he knows he is a subgenus?
There’s gotta be a Next Page button here somewhere.
So lifelike. Wait a minute! The one in the middle’s moving…
I thought it was about that waskally wabbit!
Hey, y’all, these are funny. Just so’s you know, this contest works kinda like Sundance: you gotta submit ’em to the official judging body (the Journal, in this case) in order for them to be considered official entries. Unlike Sundance, we’re relatively indiscriminate — we accept just about everything.
So the Herald is like Slamdance in this (admittedly lousy) analogy.
I was thinking: “Larva multiple faster in haury moist areas like a beard. I wondered why my beard aleays itches?”
CENTER THAT TEXT, HERALDO!!!
Thanks for the plug. Personally, I’m anxiously awaiting High Finance’s entry.
You guys have proven again, humor should be left to the experts !
Is that really you, HiFi? You left off the “harrumph.”
The bugs make me horney and I emit feramones to attract them to my bed by the hundreds.
You’re pretty laughable, HiFi. Are you an expert clown?
Well I wanted to be part of Slamdance too.
“Page 42…Hymenoptera. Hells yeah, this should be good!(Hmm…Not quite what I was thinking but I guess ovipositors are kinda kinky)”
