Hinckley Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 For those of you who have been following, I've been hosting a secret competition among anonymous EB members. Here's the latest competition. The participants were asked to construct monkey traps. Which one do you like best? #1 #2 What better way to catch a monkey than the classic pit trap? In this trap, the monkeys don't fall to the usual spikes, but to a fate much deadlier. #3 #4 When the monkey sees the shiny, pretty gem, it'll walk right to it...but one of our members is there to drop a heavy anchor by pulling the cutlass out of the winch, ending the poor, but incredibly annoying, monkey's life! #5 #6 It´s the classic "Get stuck in front of the tellie"-trap: The monkey will be waiting for The Planet Of The Apes to start while eating bananas! #7 When the monkey tries to grab Hinckley he gets catapulted into space! #8 From her safe, pun intended, perch, Inga uses bananas to lure the monkeys to this ACME inspired, crude but effective trap. #9 Looking for a break from Hank Hinckle-Dinckleman's constant whining, the tribe tossed him into a cage with a flamethrower and suspended it from a hilltop tree for the angry monkeys to use as a pinata while he tries to roast a few of the rebellious scoundrels, giving the tribe a much needed break from both annoyances; though no one expected a passing alligator to join in for some free bar-b-cue.
KimT Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Number 8 - that ACME RoadRunner safe trap is hilarious It should have been accompanied by the classic "Meeep Meeeep" sound. Good luck to all
Stauder Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Hmmmm... Hinckey in space... Or A dead monkey? I shall save the other developing civilizations by keeping hink in a hole full of mokey guts! Hab SoSlI' Quch! nuqDaq 'oH puchpa''e'? S'tau dr.
LuxorV Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Most of them are really funny, and toon-oriented, but I'll go with the classic one: n° 5 for me. LuxorV
iamded Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 I voted number 8. I love the acme style, with the safe and big red 'x marks the spot' cross. ~Peace
Adam Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 I voted for #1. I like the tree, and it feels nice to see a clever trap mechanism that works with the tree.
Pate-keetongu Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 5 is best, so classic small-animal trapp! evry enrty are very funny, of course!
Jipay Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Number 5 for me. All those reminds me of the ACME arsenal, but number five is the ultimate classic.
hewkii9 Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 I voted for #2. Being whacked by Hinckley seems like such an effective and efficient fate for a monkey.
WhiteFang Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 I voted for number 5. It is such a simple trap, but in fact the most effective and classic way of catching monkey. The rest of the entries are equally interesting. Great contest everyone!
UniqueBuilder Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 nuqDaq 'oH puchpa''e'? Toilet? How is this relevant to the topic? Grr.. I can't decide.
Stauder Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Oh shit! A Gungan that speaks Klingon! The End is near! Staudie.
Corvus Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 #8. Wheeeeee! It was hard to decide, though- they're all great entries.
Inertia Posted August 24, 2008 Posted August 24, 2008 #9, It's pretty hilarious What, they're all very funny though.
JopieK Posted August 24, 2008 Posted August 24, 2008 I think I like #2 best, but others are also really nice!
JimBee Posted August 24, 2008 Posted August 24, 2008 I liked number 2 the best: getting beat to death by Hinckley with a stick? Can't beat that! All of the entries were great, though.
