What better a way to go into the weekend than with hopes of free Etsy loot? As it turns out, you could be so lucky: it’s this week’s Bounty Contest, which rewards your creative genius and dry wit.
First, a shout-out to last week’s victors, empress_of_shenanigans_call-me and vikkitikkitavi. Their winning captions are at the links.
This week’s contest:
Same deal: We’re looking for the most clever and original caption — think in the style of New Yorker cartoons — for the lovely image below, courtesy of Vogue‘s delightful October issue.
Yes, crutches. Have fun with that.
What you win:
This fetching robot t-shirt, pictured below, from Happy Family. The Alternative Apparel cap-sleeve tee is a 100% cotton; it’s screenprinted by hand with distressed white ink, which is both non-toxic and lead-free.
Oh, and it’s mighty soft and yet quite durable — it might be indestructible, actually, just like a robot.
Submit your captions in the comments only. The deadline for contest entries is Monday, October 18 at 12 pm ET. (NB: This is not a LOLVogue contest; maybe we’ll take that approach another time). On that evening (10/11), a Jezebel editor will pick two winners(!) from the comments on this post at her’s sole discretion based on wittiness and originality. We will notify the two winners by email on Tuesday, October 19 by 12pm ET.
All standard Gawker contest rules apply.
Some additional requirements: You must have a valid email associated with your commenter account. You may submit an entry or request a winner’s list via mail to Gawker Media, Attn: Weekly Jezebel Bounty Contest, 210 Elizabeth, 4th Floor, NY, NY, 10012. Approximate retail value for prizes is less than $200.
