Please post favorite funny challenge entries from someone else.
Humor comes in many shapes and sizes, often catching us with an unexpected surprise, a double or triple meaning (often from the relationship of photo, photo-title and challenge title/descrip).

Maybe you've noticed it too, but very often in DPC, folks take voting and photography pretty seriously and overlook the great sense of humor in the photo itself. I appreciate those who catch the humor in the photos entered. A recent comment I received from an anonymous voter: "Great Humor! Sorry for all the DNMC's you have most certainly gotten from all the voters who were born with paralysis of the "Funny Bone!" :} Ah, the old medical condition of "paralysis of the funny bone".

So what are your favorite humorous photos which were actually entered into a DPC challenge causing you to want to comment LOL or LMAO?

A few of my favorites:
Judi's Blue Ribbon has lovely quirky humor to it, a woman lampstand...

Whiterook, Master of the Brown with 15 out of 25 entries placing last, has continually impressed me with his great sense of humor, a real gift to the DPC community. My favorite humor shot from whiterook's hall of humor, "Capecod getting smaller" entered into the "Spots" challenge, with blurry leaves presented as the spots:

Speaking of Brown ribbons, they often get my funnybone cranked up. Of the many, many humorous Brown ribbons, Jacko's "angry kitty ready for a scratch your eyes" is at the top of the heap for laughs in my odd book of humorous challenge-entry photos on this site:
