Chris -”Oh my God! He just shat through his clothes! How is that even
possible? What, is he wearing sheer diapers, or something? Where are
you going?”
Mike (laughing) -”Awe, man. Chris…we’re out of diapers.”
Chris – “What?!”
Mike – “Yea. I totally spaced it. Look, I’ll just run to the store

Milo would never mention ‘cow with udders’ again.
And all entries that tried to capture the raw emotion by starting off
with “What??”
———-
Welp, thanks for judging this contest, Mr. Phirman. I received over 500 entries (a new record) and much baby fun was had by all! The Nerdist appreciates the temporary donation of Milo’s captured soul and we now relinquish our grasp on it.
Umbrage. Yes, umbrage. That’s what I’m taking as a result of the omission of my witty caption. Phirman and Hardwick both will receive a dressing down when they come to Portland.
But I did like the other submissions.
I would have submitted a caption, but I’m at that point in nearly woman’s life where her biological clock gives her brain BSoD whenever she’s confronted with a good-looking man holding a baby. Sorry.
That’s a pretty good one. I came up with like ten of these quotes, but in the process of elimination, before posting them, I realized they were all really stupid.
Michael
hah i like the “male cows have no udders, well they dont talk or scheme either” reference
What’s with all the lamps in the background? I could count 6 of them. Were you and Phirm shopping at a Pottery Barn store with the baby? That would be a funny sight.
Did anybody mention, wow, that’s a durned cute baby!
Sweet. When do I gets my iTunes gift certificate? I want to spend it with reckless abandon.
about one year ago, the first caption contest garnered merely 50 entries. now look at it! Well done mr hardwick.
my abortion reference should have one the day. it’s a choice, not a child!
I WANT EVERYONE SO SEE THIS VIDEO AND THE OTHERS OMG MUST SEE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
