Doesn't he know cigarettes can kill?
It’s Monday, time for a brand new Splendid Marbles Cartoon Caption Contest. (Cartoon after jump.) Please type a witty caption (you are allowed two submissions) and place it in the comment section, along with a valid email address, and you could win a $10 cash prize. I will accept entries until midnight, Friday, April 10th, 2009. I’ll select five finalists over the weekend, which will be voted on starting noon Monday, April 13th, 2009.
I hope you enjoy this week’s cartoon. I’ve always known that many folks with sleep disorders and troubled childhoods claimed to be victims of alien abductions. This, naturally, led me to ponder the concept of an alien affair. Maybe this topic has already been covered on Jerry Springer, or some other dreadful daytime human circus show, and then again, maybe it hasn’t. That last sentence really has no point, other than to set this last statement up: this is cartoon should bring out the best in you – let the captions fly. (But please, avoid idiotic profanity – you’re much better than that.)
Here’s your chance to vote on last week’s finalists:

Time to vote for your favorite caption.
(By the way, NICE JOB! You guys are really making the selection of finalists harder each week. But, my fiancee and I appreciate the challenge.)
And here is last week’s winner for the Jesus Speeds Cartoon Caption Contest:

The winning caption comes from BJC.
Just a reminder, my fiancee and I take the selection of finalists very seriously – way too seriously. We try to selections both pass the humor and relevancy test. The first is completely subjective, and is consequently the source of many a domestic dispute. The second criteria, relevance, is a bit easier to judge, and therefore causes less trouble on the home front. (By the way, we love captions that are “way the hell out there,” but they should still be at least tenuously tethered to the cartoon in question.)
I post brand new cartoons, with my very own captions, every Wednesday at noon, and I have a new piece of fantastic commentary for you to read every Friday at noon.
While you’re here, sign up for my feed so you can get some of the best in original political cartoons and commentary.
And, check out more cartoons and the winners of the caption contest in the Splendid Marbles Cartoon Gallery.
Please note: I will send out an email on Mondays to remind you about the contest. I will NOT pester you at any other time during the week, and I will NOT share your email with another living soul – or organization run by the living. AND, I will take you off of the list as soon as you request to be removed – just send a reply email with “UNSUBSCRIBE” in the subject line. Thank you, and have fun with this week’s cartoon. (Please be advised: I reserve the right to remove comments that contain foul language.)

I think we should go couch shopping tomorrow.
It’s ok, I guess it happens to aliens, too.
Don’t you think it’s about time you took me home to meet your parents?

You didn’t have to hurry. I have Jay Leno on Tivo.
Here on earth TV and cigarettes come after sex.
For the last time, no smoking in bed. I don’t CARE if it’s what you do at home. Obviously, we’re worlds apart.
Your e-harmony ad said you were a former illegal alien, I thought we would go for some Corona’s….
But heck…I really don’t weigh 115 pounds either..
This isn’t ANYONE’s idea of foreplay!
Remember what your brother Woody Allen said “If you smoke after sex you’re doing it too fast.”
My brother Sucks!!!
your eyes remind me of the tar in your lungs…
I really like your high cheek bones and three nipples, but smoking is very unattractive!
Oh come on, I shouldn’t be annoyed that you always take-off without me?
“It won’t work. We are lightyears apart.”
“Earthgirls are so easy.”

Enough with the porn watching already! I’m still here you know…
“Three nicotine patches on your chest and you STILL can’t quit, Zendar! You aliens are all alike!”
Feeling so alienated, as they watched the bovine T.V. special, Susan finally agreed on adding a breast prosthesis…
Now I know why I’m a lesbian, you are not “out of this world”,like your ad said!
You may pay for this place, but I’m more than just a lightyear stand! Find yourself a new mistress.

I’m not sure this long distance romance is working.
Thanks for parking around back. I’m not sure what my husband would do if he caught us.
Just because they call it a quikie; doesn’t mean you can leave the motor running on your saucer. Show some respect for Earth’s environment; some of us still have to live here.
I’ve told you that I don’t want to watch “Earth Girls Are Easy” for the zillionth time. Watching it once, was one time too many & I’m tired of you comparing me to the girls in it. I’M NOTHING LIKE THEM!

“Phone home. Phone home.” Geesh, you’re NEVER getting a divorce, are you?

So, now can I have a ride?
” Does this mean you’ll give us a bailout?”
” You’re a girl ?!?!”
Yeah! It was good, but with the intergalatic fuel prices. I can’t believe I just flew 5 trillion miles for that.
