Welcome to the ongoing contest that is... The Sims Caption Contest.Every week, I post a picture in need of a humorous caption (think of it like a cartoon). Submit as many humorous captions as you want in the week after that. I choose a few finalists and open up voting (on Surveymonkey). After a week's voting, the winner is declared. Skip to the most recent winner announcement, link to voting for the last contest, and current screenshot for captioning HERE.Winners get 1,000 SPs to spend on whatever they want (including gifting), and a permanent spot on the front page. Prizes don't have to be claimed if you're just in it for the fun - I'll spread the prize SPs around.So far, 2nd and 3rd place winners (and sometimes more) have been declared as well, getting 500 SPs each. I'll keep that up as long as I can.In the third post, I have links to all the posts where winners are declared, so you can easily see all the captions that won prizes for each contest.Some rules on voting: One vote per person, please. When you vote, you must rank all the entries rather than just choosing one favorite (or one least favorite). The way the survey algorithm works, it needs to register all your rankings to come up with a fair final judgement.Any answers that don't follow these rules will just be deleted from the survey. Thanks!(Modeled after the New Yorker Magazine's caption contest.)For now, I'll be providing the pictures for captions, but if you have one you want to submit for a future week, post it on my wall or PM me with it!(By the way, I reserve the right to edit caption entries slightly - for punctuation, spelling, or length.)

You never know when Death is coming. Always dress the way you want to be remembered. ; )

Edit:
Do you think it'll help if I look the other way and pretend I don't see him?
