Caption Contests

Caption Contest Finalists: Justice Never Sleeps — Except During Oral Arguments

Uh-oh! Was this SCOTUS justice caught napping on the job?

Last week, we asked readers to submit possible captions for this picture:

Let’s have a look at what our readers came up with, and vote on the finalists.

Here are the finalists for our latest caption contest, many of which were pretty great:

A. Those clerks better take GREAT fucking notes.

B. Roberts: “If you could speak just a little quieter, Counsel, it would be appreciated.”

C. I am just mimicking my friend, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

D. 1 pube… 2 pubes… 3 pubes… *snore*

E. Waiting for Ginni to fall asleep so I could watch #Confirmation was a bad move.

Please vote for your favorite caption in our poll, which will be open through WEDNESDAY, MAY 4, at 11:59 P.M. (EST). Thank you very much!
