Caption Contest is Back and Mad as Hell

Several months ago, I attempted a caption contest that didn’t end well, because family members’ entries confounded the selection process. This time, immediate family is exempt from winning. Sorry, Dad. To make up for the discrepancy, I’ll give this contest’s winner two local handicrafts instead of one. Don’t worry, there will be more opportunities in the future, but this is probably the only one I’ll make available for worldwide shipping. The rest will take place once I’m back in the US. Contest closes November 1st. Start commenting!

Haibao looking over shoulder

Boy in dragon's mouth

Three Chinese kids

The results are in. I’m going to have to give this one to Joe for his caption for the third picture: Step aside, friend. This table has been sanctified for the most amazing half-peeled cucumber vs. Red Ranger fight your rat-tails have ever dreamed of. You had me at rat tails.

    Clark, I hope my comments after the last contest are not the reason your not allowing family to win! I was just bustin’ your chops man.

    Anyways, I have actually been hoping to see this segment again. Here goes:

    1. “HELP! this guy wants to clone me and make a fortune selling Haibao knock offs!”

    2. “I’m so stressed out from those damn Wednesday classes that I’ve gone from dreaming about zombies to dreaming about being eaten by whatever the heck this thing is”

    3. “Pssst, hey buddy, try not to laugh, but look over my shoulder and check out this guy’s stylin’ purple vest”

    1. Leprechaun voice, “Good job Toht, (Chinese guy from Indiana Jones)now you know what you got to do: BURN THEM ALL!”

    2. “I still don’t see how I became the sacrifice. I’m neither a pretty girl or a virgin.”

    3. “Step aside friend. This table has been sanctified for the most amazing half-peeled cucumber vs. Red Ranger fight your rat-tails have ever dreamed of.”

    1.Hold Up a second- I bet I can talk the guy down on that pirated “Twilight” VCD!

    2.You know, I’d rather just end it all here than go back to that out house.

    3.Psst- This piece of half-eaten produce and laowai action figure could be yours, if only you’d tell us who your barber is…

    I know it’s all in good fun, Hopfrog, but my family’s going to get enough Chinese gifts from me. They don’t need to win my contests, too.

    I know it doesn’t count, but here’s my try:

    1. Psst! Party at Shanghai in 2010, pass it on!
    2. Why won’t you eat me!? Don’t you like white meat?
    3. Dammit, I have got to stop trading my toys for cucumbers.

    1- “Build-A-Bear don’t make girls like they used to.”
    2- “….goosfraba….”
    3- “Look here, see this cucumber? u willing to trade, you see, i need that exact piece for my house….”

    1. When everything seems fuzzy and gray, I feel blue.

    2. Teeth, teeth, teeth,
    I always brush my teeth,
    After getting up,
    I brush my teeth…

    3. This cucumber is magic. It fell from my big brother’s pant leg.

    1. “Well what else did you expect? You paid for the cheapest shoulder fair insurance we offered.”

    2. “That’s the last time I say yes to a man in a funny hat with a bottle of tequilla saying ‘tonight will be legendary!’”

    3. “I hear they call you Shanky McShank Maker and that you can make anything into a shank, lets see you make this into a shank.”
