CARTOON CAPTION/ANTI-CAPTION CONTESTS IN SUSPENDED ANIMATION!

This week there's a pause in the proceedings, so I will settle for noting the recent upsurge in caveman cartoons:

Contest 69 (Drawing by Mick Stevens)
Contest 91 (Drawing by Frank Cotham)
Contest 108 (Drawing by Michael Maslin)
Contest 112 (Drawing by Frank Cotham)

Maybe it has something to do with the outlook for real estate in New York.

Elsewhere in Captionland, Emdashes continues to offer great interviews with the winners, and I'm finally noting that Dan Radosh noted that giantess fetishists finally noticed Anti-Caption Contest 77.


Caption Contest 112 is still here. Anti-Caption Contest 112 is still here.
