This week for Make Me Laugh Monday I want to introduce you to Exploding Dog. This guy does two drawings each day based on reader-submitted captions. His stuff is really great, and some of the drawings totally crack me up. Like, for example, this one:
“Well, I didn’t see that coming.”
Or this one:
“I am so happy your beard is gone.”
sam brown, explodingdog
Here’s the deal if you want to join in.
Write about something funny. It can be an anecdote, a joke, a picture, or a link to something funny… whatever. This is a NO PRESSURE scenario. If it makes you chuckle, it’s good enough. I don’t mean to create a stressful IS IT FUNNY ENOUGH type situation, if you know what I’m sayin’. Anyone can participate.
So you write the post. Then come and link it here so that we can all enjoy the funniness.
If you participate, here’s the code to get the fabulous donkey graphic shown above;
And I should think it goes without saying but JUST IN CASE… any links that don’t go to a Make Me Laugh post on your blog will be deleted, promptly.
And one more thing… several of us read these entries with a child sitting in our lap. Please use an exclamation point at the beginning of your link title if it’s not suitable for young eyes. Happy Monday!

These are cute and funny. I like the second one the best. -)

These are great! I like “I dropped my cell phone” on 01.21.08 and “Wish it had been an earthquake” on 04.15.08.
Thanks for the link!

Ha ha ha ha. See, the thing is, when my husband DOES have facial hair? I would totally stoop to that. It bothers me just that much. :>

These are very funny, and now I’m going to check out the whole site. I actually feel like Sue — the facial hair makes me nuts.

I didn’t see that one coming! Ha ha!

My husband is always asking me if his beard is big enough to cover his ugly face. It’s such a trap!
May 26, 2008 at 6:54 am
I can’t wait to check out the rest of the site! Thanks! :)

I love comics like that. The ones that are hilarious yet simple. Have you ever checked out Natalie Dee? I love hers.
May 26, 2008 at 10:29 am
Those are great! I have to go check them all out now!

My first linky post.
Hope I did it correctly.
It says to enter blog url.
Then it says a url needs to go to the funny post.
If what I did isn’t correct it isn’t cause old dogs can’t learn new tricks.
Enjoyed reading the other links.

May 26, 2008 at 8:29 pm
I love that – so simple and so funny!
May 27, 2008 at 8:35 am

May 27, 2008 at 9:55 am
