Caption This

I actually posted this picture last year (but not as a Caption This) with a link to an article about Julian Beever’s sidewalk art. It’s breathtaking. This is one of my favorite photos of his work because the baby is so perfectly positioned.

Plus, even I can think of some captions for this! But you first… caption this!

  1. “Soon it will be proven that both the baby’s hand and the frog’s tongue are equally sticky. Stay tuned . . . . “

  2. Frog: I told you that it wouldn’t work. You have to be at least 18 before kissing me will turn me back into a prince.

  3. Yes. I love this picture. I love watching the videos of him creating these. Just mind boggling that someone has the talent to create something like this and it’s so “matter of fact” the way he does it. I can’t think of a caption.
    Except maybe this: “Mmmm”

  4. Augh… I can’t eat a child! There is nothing MORE TOXIC than a human child!

    (sorry, had to play on Monster’s Inc.)

  5. Not, prince, kid, PRIZE. It’ll be awwwesome! C’mon, kiss me. You’ll see.

  6. are you from Quebec? haha

  7. baby: “nope… nope… darn… the mouth is completely wrong. I’m going to start all over!”

    Unfortunately, for little Emma, she peaked too soon in her artistic career. It was said by five she could only draw stick-figures”

    or

    Little Emma used to build intricate sandcastles but was always upset the changing tides would wash her work away. It was too bad that even though she changed to city art she wasn’t old enough to read the sign, “Street Cleaning Every Friday”.

    Gosh damn Taggers. No respect at all for private property!

  8. Baby: “Picasso started out small too, you know” ;)

  9. ok, a couple more as my mind is still on the caption…

    “I said, Hey! You! Get off of my lilly-pad
    Hey! You! Get off of my lilly-pad
    Hey! You! Get off of my lilly-pad
    Don’t hang around ’cause two’s a crowd
    On my lilly-pad, baby
    — the way the song would have gone if Mick Jagger were a frog! (always good to have a Rolling Stones reference)

    or

    Darren (hysterical as usual): “where is she?? Sam… where is she? I can’t believe you let Tabitha out of your sight!?!”
    Samantha: “oh Darren, she could not have gotten far!”
    (— always good to have a Bewitched reference too!)

  10. This child need a proper nanny.

  11. Marsha, given who you are, that made me laugh aloud! :-)

  12. Frog: “Yes, I know, I’m talented. How beautifully this leaf-baby drawing turned out!”

  13. pedestrians: “ooh..that baby looks so real… thank GOD it’s not real because that frog would eat her/him!”

  14. “hey, you, got offa ma pad”
    “hop it!”
    “giant frog on rampage, eats baby”

  15. people in the background: “hey, someone needs to go save that baby?!?!”
    man to their right: “I would save her but I can’t swim!”

  16. Haha! For some reason “I can’t swim” made me giggle. And then giggle some more.

    And then I thought of the baby saying, “Come here froggy, froggy” in a sweet baby voice, until the frog was close enough and then the baby’s tongue shooting out to swallow the frog whole.

    You guys are a bad influence on me. I love you!

  17. Frog (In a very deep James Earl Jones voice):
    “Hey lil’ tadpole”

    or

    Baby: “Wanna Bite? Tastes like chicken!”

    or

    Frog: “ReeDeep”

    Baby: “Thbbbbbtttt”

  18. “I knew eventually the nuclear reactor would do something useful – look at the SIZE of that fly!”

  19. These pads kinda suck. I’m gonna go get an iPad

  20. Lol, a good amount of captions in all directions this week :)

  21. George your ipad comment made me sneeze my water out of my nose. Well done!
