We’ve seen some strange happenings in the real world and on the internet, some of which find themselves worthy of explanation. In my opinion, the picture I have provided for you today needs something said by someone. Are you the one with your thinking cap on today? Leave your caption in the comments and lets have a little fun today.
First of all I would like to thank every single person who submitted a caption or ten in the last captioning contest. As everyone saw with that one, a real living, breathing person came up with a truly unique caption and won the grand prize. Thank you Jayme for being our latest winner!
What is the prize for the winning caption you ask? It’s nothing, there is no actual prize for you to hold in your hands. However, the winning caption will be put on the picture shown here, then a winning post will be created here displaying your name, your blog’s name, and a link to your blog. What do you have to do to play? Simply leave your caption and your and a way to contact you if you are the winner in the comments below. The winning caption will be chosen next Friday morning, 02 October 2015.

Okay, I will be the first to admit that y’all made it rough picking only one winning caption this time. But, the favorite caption submitted out of 256 submissions had to go to Jayme because it was spot on. I want to thank each and every one of y’all for playing. I really look forward to posting the next winning caption to here for another one of those odd pictures that just beg to be captioned. Thanks to everyone who viewed and participated from my blog, WordPress, Blogcatalog, Facebook, Google+, and Twitter, everyone made this one super fun!
After quite some time of being shelfed and hundreds of requests from visitors to T.S.O.T.S.B., the caption contest is coming out of it’s virtual retirement. What is the prize for the winning caption you ask? None, there is no actual prize for you to hold in your hands. However, the winning caption will be put on the picture shown here, then a winning post will be created here displaying your name, your blog’s name, and a link to your blog. What do you have to do to play? Simply leave your caption and your and a way to contact you if you are the winner in the comments below. The winning caption will be chosen next Friday morning, 25 September 2015.
I’ll tell y’all right now that I really appreciate everyone’s participation in my little experiment to see how many readers would take a picture of my blog as it appears on their own computer. The latest brave soul is The Bearded Backyarder who really hit a home run with his picture. For his bravory I share with him yet another picture from a fan of T.S.O.T.S.B. who’s pictures are always welcome here.
When you get a moment or several y’all might want to stop by and check out what he’s been up too. I do regularly and this is what I found this morning, now that is advertising! I, of course, operate solely from a phone so I can only offer y’all a screenshot. Let this be the lesson to everyone, whether you believe it or not, someone somewhere is reading something on your blog. Keep up the great work and send me your pictures so I can share them here.
I have always wondered what T.S.O.T.S.B. (this blog) looked like being viewed by someone else besides me, and now I know that Rexi and her feline companion have a very dirty little secret. Well, since she placed it on Facebook, the cat is, well, out of the bag so to say. Not that she keeps her cat in a bag, I hope, but I’m just saying.
So, seeing this picture gave me an idea, yes it is scary when I get ideas on my own, but it happens, even to me. Anyway, the idea is more of a challenge for readers here, but its just for fun, there are no prizes, no fame, and I promise not to make obnoxious comments. Here’s the plan, I want y’all to have my blog pulled up on your PC/laptop/tablet or your device and take a picture of it. Then, email it to me. If you wish to be anonymous or use and alias or just put no reference, just let me know. If you are proud, leave your blog name/URL and I will include it in the post.
So far, Rexi has y’all beat hands down right now, her picture includes her bored to sleep cat, which I suspect is the reaction most people have as well.
Normally, this is where I would introduce all of the winners pertinent information like name, location, and blog information. However, a first here has occurred, the donor of the winning phrase wishes to remain completely anonymous. Hopefully, by now, everyone knows I will honor these requests.
There were 173 unique entries for this captioning extravaganza and every single one of them is greatly appreciated. Don’t worry if yours was not picked this time as I do many of these through out the year. Thank you to everyone who participated this time and I wish everyone better luck in the future.
Can you do it? I’m sure it will be a breeze for everyone who gives it a shot. What do you get in return if you win? Unfortunately there are no cash and prizes to be awarded. However, I will make your caption into a fancy picture like the one above including, if you so choose, your name, where you are from, and your blog w/link. Below is a list of the requirements so I have the information to introduce. Note, only a “caption” is required, everything else is optional. If you email your submission add “Create This Caption” in the subject line please.
I will let this soak and simmer for awhile. When I find one that I like I will create it and post it with no further notice. The winner will be free to reblog the winning post and all I ask is a link back to the original post. Its that simple. I look forward to seeing what y’all come up with. Periodically I will update the comments with what is being captioned so we can all enjoy. Now what are y’all waiting for? Get to work!
