I think our stripper business is really about to take off.
I sure hope we’re not late for Hellboy’s Tupperware party.
If you don’t put a shirt on, they’ll never help us fix the car.
“I forget… is it ‘Trick AND Treat’ or ‘Trick OR Treat’?”
“I know you’re horny, but STOP TOUCHING ME!”
knowing full well that they were much less likely to get help if the Smith’s saw his boyfriend, Larry encouraged Manicorn to stay in the car.
Stu never expected his three wishes for a rock hard body, a girlfriend and a unicorn to be granted all at once… and while he was driving.
“Screw-head the gay” and “Butt-ugly man” were forced into the car repair business when they missed the cut into the Super Heroes League.
I think the kids did this (sabotage the car) on purpose.
“What do you mean you feel stupid with an Ice Cream Cornet stuck on your head.”
“You moron, I meant “kiss my butt” figuratively…and definitely NOT WHILE I AM DRIVING!!!”
“Leave this to me Harold ‘cos they may seem a little odd at first”
True Blood finale takes a new turn..
Do you think they will know we are from San Fransisco?
I hope this is “Acorn” headquarters, we need a job.
Of course I have the right address Larry! Why do you ask?
YES! For the umpteenth time!!! The shoes match the rest of the outfit!!
You do realize that when I ring the doorbell and we take off running that YOU will likely be the one who gets caught.
“Hello AVON..Ding Dongs calling!”
Do these pants make my butt look big?
do these pants make my butt look big?!
Yes, I do find it strange that you do not have any nipples
“When I said wear some clean under clothes in case we have an accident,I meant under your Dress.”
I’m tellin you I’ve seen this before… Watch, I’ll ring this doorbell like so and in a few minutes someone is gonna release rabbid dogs on us, just wait and see and don’t be suprised when I say I told you so…
“You might not wanna stand so close Larry, if someone opens this door and pulls my finger you’re gonna be in a whole mess of trouble.”
Take the shoes off, ScrewHead… This isn’t a costume party for God’s sake!
Remember to duck this time when they invite us in.
Make up an excuse right after diner, just before desert. We don’t wanna have to listen to little Suzie play her saxiphone again.
Oh, I’ll mind my manners allright, but if Frankenstien makes one more “Troll Under the Bridge” joke…
I’m sure they’ll let me in to make a call, but you’re screwed.
“You’ll see … everyone will indeed laugh. And I bet that’ll be the last time you try to dress yourself.”
Feeling the economic hardships, Danny Devito and Dan Akroyd developed a subpar door-to-door Penguin-Conehead clash.
Try not to do anything stupid to embarrass us this time, ok?
Would it have killed you to put on a little makeup?
This is the last time we use Rachel Zoe as our stylist.
I am tired of coming to these events shoeless. Can’t you chew on something else?
Remember, if we meet any girls, you are the vegetarian and I am the carnivore.
1. “How’s my breath?”
2. “Remember, we’re looking to buy a home in the area.”
Q: What was wrong with my caption from last week: “Who does your laces?”? ( I thought it was better than at least 3 of the ones you picked.)
Wedge that horny spiral up the right spot, big boy, and bells will ring!
“Just be yourself.”
I know somebody is home, but I just don’t know why they are’nt answering.
“Gee, I sure hope you are a figment of my imagination.”
Do these pants make my butt look big?
Now don’t forget-watch out for the ceiling fans this time!
Ok, let me do the talking, we don’t want them to think we are a couple of freaks.
I’m a little nervous. I’ve never brought anyone home to meet the folks before.
Alright I’ll just ask to use their phone and so help me God Harold if you embarrass me, I will kill you!
why are we the only people in this vanpool that are normal.
why did we have to break down in such a scary neighbor hood.
“Because I don’t feel like knocking, ok, Mr. Critical!?”
“I don’t know why I believed you when you said you could drive stick.”
October, 2029: Kid Rock and Pamela Lee were spotted arriving at a costume party outside of Detroit, just after their third marriage.
Ok, wait about 5 minutes and then come in. They’ll be so thrilled that I’m not the stripper, they’ll LOVE you!
Can you yhink of a better way to drum up business for our new church? Jehovah witnesses do it all the time!
What the hell?! You ate the pizzas again?! Dude! You’re never gonna make it through probation!
Are you serious? Of course your feet are hurting you, you dufus! They’re crammed into shoes three sizes too small!
Correction for my third entry – should read “Can you think…” And to Karl K., I REALLY liked your caption, along with ALOT of others. But when I read your statement I could almost picture you at your computer, pouting. Seriously, grow up.
There was more confusion than usual about the location of this year’s Rocky Horror convention.
I don’t get your point.
“What do you mean be careful you`ve heard the people who live here are very strange-this is OUR HOME.”
“This is the last time I give you roadhorn, just look at what you did to my teeth!”
“If this doesn’t work we will make you a shawl out of the window treatments from the van.”
Remember Thad if my parents ask about us we are just old pals.
Oh, and take your shoes off before you go in.
“I know it looks wierd but my tail always freaks them out & didn’t I tell you to wear the stovetop hat?”
Quit your sulking, the hat looks fine….
You need to get back in the van, you look like a slut in those shorts!
I did tell my parents I was seeing someone……but I left some minor details out.
You keep you mouth shut, You start talking and people think we are weird.
“Forget your ‘cankles’, they’ll love you for who you are!”
“Pretend to be lame.”
“You’re a cell tower without a phone and I’m a door ringer without a prayer.”
“Back up Elroy. Your body heat is frying me.”
“Screws Are Us can come pick you up.”
“Screw With Us is getting you back and I refuse to pay your fee.”
Now remember, nothing to embarrass me tonight.
Do these pants make my ass look big? and I told you those shoes don’t go with that outfit !
Butt our gertie…. we have to blend in
Just don’t turn around…. make them believe these butt clencher pants work!
Of course they’ll help us, the doormat says ‘Welcome’
Whatever you do, don’t mention where you got those clothes.
Thad, you tiger, you were way too rough last night. Now just settle down before we go in or I will put you back in your box.
“…And my parents said internet dating doesn’t work but we both know that isn’t true… my Dad will be the scared little one in the corner.”
Thad’s not the sharpest tool in the shed, butt screw it, in the end he is still a good friend.
“I don’t care that your not Jewish and neither will they.”
3. “Quick! Go get the Bibles!!”
Now that is FUNNY! But, I just realized that it’s similar to Lisa K’s: Can you think of a better way to drum up business for our new church? Jehovah witnesses do it all the time! Sh*t! (And I am not pouting about not getting picked!)
Do these pants make my butt look big?
Why does everyone call you a screwdriver you ask me? Cause you are a tool, that’s why Thad!!
Karl – I apologize if my statement came off as rude. I meant no offense. I’m sure most people think their captions are really good or else they wouldn’t submit them. I surely wouldn’t want the job of picking the finalists. Kudos to you Greg for tackling that job every week. And Karl, I really do like your captions.
I want you to ring MY bell!
“Now, remember: if Aunt Lily asks about her cranberry sauce, say it was faantastic. And we met at the freezer case in Whole Foods–not Craigslist.”
Do these pants mzke my butt look big?;
I hate these damned come-as-you-are parties!
Now when we tell they we need a “Jack”, make sure they know it’s for the van!
Of course we are going to lie you screwhead. You don’t want everyone in town knowing you are a pole dancer do you?
I told you not to wear those shoes. They just scream, “look at me.”
well, if you hadn’t forgotten the bag of dog shit I wouldn’t have to resort to this!
candy gram ma’am
Stand up straight, I want you to make a good impression on my parents.
I’ll have to give you a few “pointers” on doorbell protocol.
Don’t worry, calm down! You won’t be the only unicorn there.
C’mon Leonard. Just act normal. All we need is a little water for the radiator.
Once they answer, hurry to back to the truck and get the Kirby vacs. This should be an easy sale.
The people that worked at the IRS were never taken seriously too close to halloween when they made house visits.
Now you just keep still and let ME do the talking….I know how to make an impression!
