I've submitted captions to The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest a couple of times in recent weeks, and now I'm determined to get a caption in the final three. So I think I'm going to start doing weekly posts about the new toon. I can post my caption ideas to get feedback on which one I should submit and you can come up with your own if you want. (And if you do, why not submit them?)
So before reading my first few captions for this week, check out the toon.

"You'd think they'd be warmer in hell."
"They oughta call 'em the poultry gates.
"Say 'duck, duck, goose!' one more time and I'm creamin' ya!"
i'm diggin the "poultry gates"
"You got a square to spare?" Based on the Seinfeld bit, of course.
"My kingdom for an omelet...."
By the way, in case anyone didn't notice, those are eggs they're sitting on.
The toilets in Heaven could be shaped like eggs? I haven't been there yet, but it's just a thought.
"I gotta go to the can--make sure nobody poaches my seat."
"Look on the bright side. At least we did not have to lay them"
“I liked the March of the Penguins movie too, but this is ridiculous.”
clash: Nice -- I was thinking of a penguin reference, but you beat me to it!
"Man, those Red Bull commercials don't lie..."
clash: Those are great! I think you could win it with one of those. (Sorry sleek!)
dm: I'd love for Clash to win this contest!
Thanks. Just messing around. :)
RTN inspires me.
The wings and laying eggs I can handle, but this music reminds me of a bad elevator ride.
josh: Nice.
I have to get my entry in today, and I'm stuck between the duck-duck-goose one and the omelet one. If anyone else sees this today and has an opinion on which I should submit, I'd appreciate it.
Okay, I went with an amended version:
"No, I don't want to play Duck Duck Goose!"
