Let's Win the New Yorker Caption Contest

"Well, the other way, I miss out on all the great deals from Skymall!"

All of nuts' are killing it.

"You're not my type."

"This 'Superfriends Fly Free' promotion worked out pretty well, I'd have to say."

"It's worth it for the WiFi."

joedator? doesn't new yorker have a policy against using call of duty screen names as your signature?

"George Reeves lives in my mouth."

"these luggage compartments are bigger than i'm used to."

"And that's how I learned that teal kryptonite takes away my first class platinum pass. Weird, right?"

"Have you ever tried to change in an airplane bathroom?"

"Oh, yeah right, it's impossible to reverse time by flying against the rotation of the Earth. It's totally impossible. Listen, pal, I was there, OK?"

"The 70s cartoon had it wrong. It's Miks-yez-pit-lik, not Mix-ill-plick."

"You're probably thinking of my cousin."

lol

"Last time I fell asleep and crashed into the World Trade Center"

"You're probably thinking of my cousin."

copper-bottomed winner

"Last time I fell asleep and crashed into the World Trade Center"

By rights, this should be a contender. But, will this even make it into the 'other captions' section?

"There's a man out there."

^ audible cackles at this one

And in an ironic twist it's William Shatner.

i never actually enter this thing.

"Don't freak out, but both engines failed. I'm holding this plane up with my buttcheeks."

this could so win!

What do you mean Comic Con isn't till next month?

is there perhaps a more New Yorker word for "buttcheeks"? If so I think it should be submitted.

Also I'd change "freak out" to "panic"

I'm no help because I want to change the stinger to "I'm holding this plane up with pure anal suction."

<3

lmao

"glutes"

His gluteus gripped the cloth seat covering, effervescently holding the tumescent aircraft aloft.

Effervescently?!

his inner goddess was holding in a fart

oh jeez

Not only does the sun shine out of my ass but there are bubbles, too.

"So, I just met you, and this is crazy..."

IT MUST AND WILL REMAIN "BUTTCHEEKS"

That would look inspirational on a banner

"Don't panic, but both engines failed. I'm holding this plane up with my heroic cheeks.""

My super ass

buttcheeks! buttcheeks! buttcheeks!

"The movie's stylized it a bit. Frankly, the flapping makes me feel like an idiot."

Seems there's actually a funny caption in the running for the 'big book' one.. (not one of ours, tho)
