Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, and Happy Holidays to all you wonderful readers! I hope your holiday is bright, warm, and full of weirdo friends & family.
As a little Holiday gift, I want to give away a gift to the winner of this latest “Put Words in Their Mouths” Caption Contest! The PRIZES this time around are a hand-painted glow-in-the-dark Z&F FIGURINE ALONG WITH a Z&F mini book (as the grand prize) and an oversize signed Special Edition Christmas Poster (for the runner-up) with last year’s “Twas the Night” rendition! Both are rarities, so unless you hunt me down at a convention, I do not sell these in my store.
For those of you who follow me on social media, you may have seen our custom Christmas Card for this year– a tribute to the Christmas Story movie poster.This is an alternative version, with the Weird Kid instead of our dog April. Your mission, should you chose to accept it, is to come up with a funny caption from Zorphbert, as shown in the image. I will chose the winner and post the caption on January 1st, 2013.
Okay, now some Rules:
- Post your entry via a comment below.
- Remember this is a kid-friendly site, okay?
- You can post up to THREE entries.
- I’ll select the funniest and most fitting caption, for Zorphbert’s character.
- The previous winner is ultimately ineligible this round (sorry, OnyxSparrow)
- Your entries are DUE NEW YEAR’S EVE by 8pm EST.
Zorphbert: “Wasn’t the rabbit costume supposed to be for that other holiday?”
and, if he gets a say
Fred: “Who cares, I just want to get my paws on that turkey!”
Hi Scott! Your entry here was chosen as the runner-up, so I’d like to send you a POSTER! Please check your email you used to comment, and send me your address!
Fred:mm,mm,Christmas about myself,TURKEY! Zorphbert:Get that turkey on the poop deck RIGHT NOW!
I double dog dare you, or do you want to take a physical challenge?
SECOND ENTRY:
Let me guess, they sold out of leg lamps.
These are the first couple that popped into my head, might come up with a third…
“And people think WE’RE the weird ones?”
“Forget the kitty thing, Fred, I think you’d look great as a pink bunny.”
Awesome job, Dawn! Have a blessed Christmas!
I love lamp.
THIRD ENTRY:
Where’s Peter Billingsley when we need him?
Just as I thought the humans traditions couldn’t get weirder… Sigh, you too Fred?
Could be worse, Fred. If they’d went with “It’s a Wonderful Life,” one of us would be named Zuzu.
Fred, you grab the guy in the chimney — I’ll get the probe ready!
Fred, if you must twinkle, please go outside . . . !
Another human holiday, another dead fowl on the floor . . .
Dawn, the happiest of holidays to you and yours!
Why did they just look at us and yell, “Bumpasses?”
I really like this pinup! Great layout and poses. I also love the coloring and the “Merry Christmas” has an older feel to it. Looks like you put a lot of love into this piece.
“Looks like a fuscia daydream”
lots of great entries so far! Keep them coming, remember you have up to THREE chances to win!
1. Be sure to drink your Ovaltine.
2.Next to a circus there ain’t nothing that packs up and tears out faster than the Christmas spirit.
3. He who has not Christmas in his heart will never find it under a tree.
This just got real.
Yes, Fred. Just like the Three Wise Men of Christmas. Frankincense chicken, gold lamp and a big ball of myrrh on a rug.
