So who wins the caption that cover HORROR EDITION?     read more »

Caption This Cover: Carpet Edition

November 29, 2011 | Tuesday | 166 Comments

Jan Oda sent me this cover, and all the possible jokes ran to the front of my brain and pushed each other like the doors just opened at Target and everything was 65% off.I'm not sure if there's been a better candidate for "Caption That Cover" - well, of course there have, but not this week!   I mean, from jokes about munching carpet to whether the rug matches the drapes to what REALLY goes on in NJ, there's no shortage (heh) of opportunities here. So here we go! It's Caption That Cover time!  Leave your caption in the comments,… read more »

Flaunting the Cactus: Caption That Cover!

May 09, 2011 | Monday | 68 Comments

Teri S. sent me the following book cover, saying that it HAD to be an excellent book, what with the cover and the title. Now, I think that’s hilarious. Almost as hilarious as the couple embracing in the avocado field, which, according to the person who was looking for that book, features the tagline, “The avocado farm was going well, but who could have predicted Jane’s brain aneurysm?....” Wow. From One More Chance among the avocodos to A Flaunting Cactus, old-old-skool Harlequin titles are as much fun as the newer-old-skool titles they’ve recently stopped using. (NB: I was reading a… read more »

Caption That Cover: Duck Shack Edition

You know, when I saw the Blue Flames of Naked Man Ass cover, I didn’t think anything could top it for sheer transfixing silliness. Then there was Crop Circles and the Mystery Stare. And I didn’t think that a more bizarre collection of images could be found. Then, while hunting (huh) for Duck!, one of the DABWAHA reader nominees, I found this piece of excellent: WOW. The ‘stache! The hair! The sweatshirt! The perm! THE NAME ON HER SWEATSHIRT. I love all thing Balloony. So you guessed it: time to Caption That Cover. What’s the blurb? What are they saying?… read more »

Alert reader Heather forwarded me the following cover, and said that the minute she saw it, she thought of us. Isn’t that kind of her? Thank you, Heather! Now, everyone can say thanks to Heather because holy mother of all that is ponderous, does that image ever cry out for another round of Caption That Cover. As Heather said, “What is it with covers of guys backs with them looking down? Looks like he’s looking at his crotch.  Is he getting ready to unzip and take a wiz?  Honestly, that’s what it looks like. This is one time when cropping… read more »

Caption That Cover: Seven Miles of Chiffon - the Winner!

November 22, 2010 | Monday | 12 Comments

Oh, that cover is so fluffy, so pretty, so… dedicated in its quest to define a Yiddish word that I love: ONGEPOTCHKET. It means, basically, “Messed up, slapped together without form, excessively and unesthetically decorated.” A restaurant that is hosed down with angels, fake snow and overdone twinkly candles? Ongepotchket. Curiously flexible humans on a bed of lavender fabricplosion? Ongepotchket! So that’s my word - but I’ve already won because I read this book and enjoyed it. So it’s time to crown the winner of the Caption That Cover contest! First: Honorable mentions go to the following find folks and… read more »

Caption That Cover: Seven Miles of Chiffon

People were amazed that I didn’t have a word to say about Evangeline Collins’ cover. Of course I did. I have an entire entry’s worth of comments on that fluffy monstrosity of purple and fuchsia. But I figured it would be MUCH more fun to challenge you to Caption That Cover - so it’s fun and games and contest time! Have a long, sweeping look at this cover: Your job, should you choose to accept it, is to caption that cover Using Only One Word. I won’t even give you samples. I don’t want to take one away.

Caption That Cover: Nosehair Edition

July 21, 2010 | Wednesday | 78 Comments

I received a copy of this book in the mail, and I stared at the cover for a good five minutes trying to figure out what in the name of potpourri was going on there. Take a look: First, this is one of the worst Photoshopped covers I’ve seen in forever. I can’t even find a digital image that truly showcases the hatchet and machete job of cut & paste that’s going on up in here. In the actual book cover, you can see this fugly line around the couple where they were dropped in front of the rocky background,… read more »
