SparkFun will be closed on Tuesday, November 5th to support our team in being able to go out and vote! Orders placed after 2 pm MT Monday, November 4th will ship on Wednesday, November 6th. Thanks for your patience and understanding.
Last week, we posted our monthly caption contest and you responded with great aplomb. Unfortunately, there can only be one winner, and today we have just that. So without further ado, here is this month's winner:
You'll notice, our new model is black, with a yellow border.
Congrats Member #543343! We love a good bit of topical humor. We'll be in contact shortly with your prize ($100 in SparkFun credit).
We'll be back soon with another contest!
Not gonna lie, this is one of the best captions I've seen in a while given the scenario! Definitely deserves it!
I knew I was doomed when I saw the first caption. Some day! Some day I'll write something actually funny (well, to Sparkfun anyway)!
I has to be FUNNY? No wonder I never win.
It might be funny if there were any yellow borders in the photograph. The chick's beak is the only yellow in the photograph. Is "border" another term for "beak" or "bill"? Perhaps he should have said "you’ll notice, our new model is black with a red border".
What can we say? These caption contests are for the birds.
Maybe so, but the winner can still put a feather in their cap for having the top post.
Rightfully so - they should be as proud as a peacock.
This conversion is going the way of the dodo
It's not much of a conversation, but it's better than nothing. One in the hand is worth two in the bush ...
Sooner or later, someone is going to say something embarrassing and end up with egg on his face.
I was hopeful... Aw well.
I really thought you'd win. Your caption was EPIC!
I'm glad you liked it. I was a bit surprised mine was as popular as it was. I've been reading a lot of "One fish, two fish" lately so it was a pretty natural association... I was a bit frustrated that I couldn't come up with two more good lines to finish it. Was trying to work in the tattoos or something but couldn't make it work.
I'm thinking Fluke owe me a hundred bucks hehe ;)
