[contests] Endurance caption contest

by

17

Advance Reading Copies copies of Endurance (a/k/a Green book 2) have arrived. We all know what that means — a giveaway via caption contest! So I hereby declare another one of those suckers, based on a recent moment of zen photo as suggested by [info]garyomaha. Your challenge is to write a caption that answers the question “What the heck is behind this door, and why is it so very locked?”

First prize will be a personalized, signed copy of the Endurance ARC, as well as the Green trade paperback. Additional prizes to be awarded at my discretion. Usual rules apply. I’ll collect captions in comments here (at both jlake.com and jaylake.livejournal.com) until I get bored with it, then build a voting poll. Please try to limit the length of your entries or they may become truncated in the poll code.

    “Next time you lose the deadbolt key, we’re just getting a new door.”

    Now where did I leave those door keys?

    Yet another futile attempt to keep New York politicians from sexual misconduct… it doesn’t block Twitter.

    After they found happiness,
    they feared she’d go away.
    They built a room around her
    and hoped that there she’d stay.
    Then they feared each other–
    feared one may see her more.
    They each agreed to share her,
    and placed their locks upon the door.

    One lost the key to happiness
    and none saw her anymore.

    So that’s what the back room of the idea store looks like.

    This is the door to the government’s new transparent government policy.
