    Caption This: Please Board at the Library Book-Return Slot

    Caption This — staff-generated

    This fictional comedy scene imagines the Riverside Public Library’s book-return slot as a very busy airport terminal. The librarian has the clipboard, the pigeon has the tower, and one tiny suitcase is ready for takeoff.

    A librarian checks a tiny suitcase at a library book-return counter beneath a departures sign while a pigeon watches from a bird traffic-control perch.
    Caption This: a one-panel newspaper-style scene from the FunnyNews.lol funny pages.

    Staff caption: “Your 4:15 to the mystery aisle is boarding at the return slot—please keep your bookmarks handy.”

    We’re saving the caption box for a future community-caption edition, so keep your best punchline ideas ready for that day. Today’s published line is staff-generated.

    The beaver had arranged the folders by urgency, color, height, and the number of times they had fallen over. The pigeon had found the one remaining blank folder. Progress, it turns out, is often a feeling.
