And now for Bwog’s latest effort to be just like The New Yorker: our first caption contest! Because we want more than your excited, outraged, or bored post comments. We want the raw expressions of your psyche, in one line or less.
You know the drill: examine, interpret, express. Comment with your most incisive, searing captions for any or all of the following pictures. Global fame, the eternal respect of your peers, and the conceit that you are the sharpest person at Columbia lay on the line.
Fire away!

@Edit: typos galore there, mea culpa.
*”work’s” and delete “is there”
@the reason The New Yorker’s caption contests work is there is because of the awkward situations portrayed in them by the artist. Usually the top captions simply translate current events to fit those comedic tropes. Simply drawing random stylized cartoons is not enough. Good idea though Bwog, hope to see more of this (and comics with more potential) in the future.
