This week's winning caption came from the always clever Lonie Polony.
In second place was this entry from y not i:
So which one of you is Lionel Richie's kid again? 'Cause, man, I love that guy!And rounding out the pack was perennial favorite Joel B. with:
This would be the last time that three of K-Fed's former conquests would be seen together...
People occasionally ask me what the prize is in this contest. Apparently the admiration of one's peers isn't enough these days. So I've made up a little banner award that you can display if you win. Lonie Polony (and all past winners), you may proudly display the "In your face" award on your site.
Pretty awesome, huh? I know, you were just thinking that the only thing your site was missing was a picture of my face. Oh, and you may also post the photo with your winning caption if you want.
Thanks for playing and/or voting, everybody! Have a swell weekend, and meet me back here on Monday for something or other.
Humor-blogs.com always picks up its trash.

At least I'm first in the comments, even if I didn't win. Congrats to all!
Congrats! That was a really funny caption.
Stop staring at me Diesel!
Kudos to the group of winners - of which I will never be a part unless I start entering the contest. (I did try once.)
Can you make an image that says "In Your Face - I tried and lost...."??
I'd be proud to display even that.
Can winners display the badge retroactive to their win??
Nah, screw that...I'm just going to win again!!!
Yes! I can finally add another award badge to my site. Thank you, Diesel! Thank you!
first and foremost -- congrats to ALL the winners! i confess to being partial to Lonie Palony's, but that's beside the point. the point is they were all great!
that said, i'm with Joel. i think i'm eligible for 2 or 3 of those things, too, but what the hell, i'll just give it a shot sometime in the future. after i get my Caption Winning Sense of Humor comes back from the shop.
besides, i'm not sure it helps to have "actual" pictures posted on the Snark. i put my OWN damn face up just yesterday, and discovered, much to my chagrin and/or embarrassment, that it only serves to push readers away. d'oh!
What? No evil blinking red eyes on the graphic?
Great contest.
Yes, you can use the award retroactively. That was the "(and past winners)..." part.
My investigative staff have already discovered hundreds of these pasted all over the internet and for those that haven't even won! Those damn cheaters!
Have a great weekend, Diesel.
Good job to the winners. I think this is the second time I've made it to the Caption Field of Eight and came in last. I'm like the sacrificial 16th seed in the NCAA Basketball tournament. Gotta hit the caption gym... getting strong now...
There's no reason why I couldn't lift the badge, anyway.
Naw I'm not above that.
Oh. So now I'm supposed to read all of every post??
By the way... thought you'd like to know I finally got the book !! Thanks again.
Michelle
That you leave us hanging over the weekend...
...well, it's just cruel.
So I have about, what, 40 hours to pass before your next post?
Hooray! Thank you everybody. I will display my photo and badge with pride (coz what else am I gonna post, huh? Something I have to use my rapidly withering brain for?)
Ahh nothing says winner like rubbing it in, truly an inspirational banner Diesel
Great banner for the winners.
I'm with Beth, I wan't a "tried and lost" badge that I can proudly display over at my place. I've gotten into the top 10 a few times, and even if I haven't won, that should count for something! (Notice the exclamation mark I used to make that statement all the more forceful.)
congrats!
If anything I think theresa and I should get the awards for the most comments left. But I'm not bitter.
oh yeah i like that!!
Thank you Diesel for always making me laugh!
btw- Whenever I wear my 'jupiter' shirt, I always get positive "I love your shirt!" comments. Just thought you'd like to know.
I'm going to win this thing if it kills me!
Maybe all the swearing is keeping me out of the running . . .
Can you create a badge for worst caption?? I'm pretty sure I could win that one week after week...
Congrats to everyone. I voted for Theresa though! You come up with some funny stuff lady!!!!!
Diesel, thanks for supplying me with my next post. I'm going to display that little banner with PRIDE my man! (Figure of speach Mrs, D! I mean it like YO' MY MAN! with a gansta lean!) :0)
Congratulations! Those were gut busting captions!
Um, hate to promote myself here, but MY contest does award prizes...everyone should come play!
that's hilarious!
I just wanted to let everyone know that in honor of a special blog milestone my column today is open to the readers to create in the comments section. I have a great list of funny topics, and you can write what you like on any of them. It can be a sentence or two. It can be one hundred words.
But it is yours to create. So come on by and have at it.
Wow - good thing you don't use one of those stick-with-a-nail-on-the-end things to do your trash collecting!
(I came here via dorky dad's blog, BTW)
That is the coolest prize ever! Seriously! ;)
LOL, I'm so glad I made it here tonight. These pics are killin me :)
