A quick note

Make it fit your situation

Use the supplied caption suggestion separately from the text-free original illustration; the art itself contains no embedded headline.

Pair each line with its scene anchor and change details only when they are true for your own moment.

Keep the joke on a small shared situation rather than a customer, coworker, child or personal trait.

Preview the caption beside the image so it remains readable without covering the illustrated detail.

These are fictional creative examples, not customer quotations or verified events.
