"If he's so damn intelligent, let him get a job."
Lawrence Wood (Chicago, IL)

So sorry, Justin ("Come on, George. You know he's only going to spend it on more oxygen.") Sarma--but thanks for the comment!

"I guess membership does have its privileges."
Abdullah Abukusumo (Long Beach, CA)

"So you can take it with you!"
Gale Davis (Zephyr Cove, NV)

"Nobody brings what we really need—colorful, stylish clothes."

My loser:

"God plays in mysterious ways."

In Anti-Caption Contest #95 (filing man vs. tiger atop filing cabinet), the winner is

"So, do you think thats the tiger they were talking about in the e-mail?"
emily miletello

My losers:

"He's actually lucky. He could have picked the room with Omarosa in it."

"How many times do I have to remind you? The tiger belongs in the feline cabinet!"
