Friday Caption Contest Results: Family Portrait Edition

As Gregor Samsa awoke one morning from uneasy dreams he found himself transformed in his bed into a baby. Looking around at his new family, he longed for the days when he was a gigantic insect.

It’s KAFKA, people! How could I not pick this one? Like any right-thinking Bohemian, I’ve got a soft spot for Kafka the size of a large, yet unspecified, castle. Breaking with the traditional presentation of the imaginary shoes, I have instead, arbitrarily and somewhat absurdly, replaced the time-honored ceremony with the Imaginary Presentation of the Imaginary, Commemorative Kafkas Rose Petal Jam.

    Yay for Gemdiva! The brilliance is astounding!

    Truth be told I felt guilty giving it to her two weeks in a row, but DAYUM, you can’t beat that with a paddle, can you? There was some solid competition, but in the end I’m a Kafka nut and there’s only one choice you can make.

    When you look into the comment thread, the comment thread looks also into you.

    Thank you Glinda & Raincoaster. I am indeed humbled by the honor you do me. I’ll make tea & scones and you can join me in a celebratory “jam” session.
