(NOTE: This contest has expired at the New Yorker, but for their latest contest you can still click on the link below. Of course you can still send your responses to us for the gator picture.)
Have a little fun, exercise your creative muscle and make the world safer for innovation all at the same time! The New Yorker ran a cartoon caption contest that has two gators talking to each other on a subway train.
What are they saying? YOU decide! (and win fame and fortune.... well maybe a little fame...)
See cartoon below.
You can't dazzle the folks at the New Yorker any longer, but we would love to read your caption. You can write it in the comments section for this post. Practice your divergent thinking skills. Maybe you'll have two or three or more!
it ain't easy being green.
Look at the looks we are getting just by leaving our alligator shoes at home.

I asked you if you had to go before we left the house...now you have to hold it until the next stop.

1) Sure, you believe in Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny but you are shocked to see us?
2) They blocked the sewer at 5th & Vine so we are just taking a quick detour. Sorry about the odor.

I was so stressed, I didn't know whether to fight or to flee. But then I read Brooke Musterman's fantastic book, Reptiles on Caffeine, http://www.amazon.com/Reptiles-Caffeine-Brooke-Musterman/dp/1886057176/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1317329914&sr=8-1 & totally got a handle on my stress responses...b

Gee, Sam, you're right! This is nicer than traveling by sewer (even if it doesn't quite smell as nice).

When we get to my stop, sometimes I get so nervous that I freeze instead of flee the bus!

Gator 1: "What the...hey, this isn't the Subway with the $5 sandwich deal."
Gator 2: "I guess not, but there are some tasty-looking humans over there!"

Why is everyone staring? Do I have zebra in my teeth?

I really hate this commute, can seem to keep my gator brain under control. How about you Fred? Me either, I think we need a refresher class.

Talk about stereotyping! I'm pretty sure that lady over there has us already designed into a pump.

Uh... trick or treat?

Are you thinking flight...or fight?

Are we on the right train?
I'm not sure, are we?
If we are, we're scaring the hell out of the lady across from us and the guy to my right looks like he wants to make a wallet out of me.

Have your heard about New & Improved's gator brain? What's up with that?
Posted by: Denise | 10/22/2011 at 09:22 AM
So what's so wrong with freeze, fight or flee?

I'm tired of this unemployment thing. No one seems to want to hire us anymore. Maybe we should run for congress.
