My Entries in the Moment Cartoon Caption Contest for Fall 2023

Moment magazine's Cartoon Caption Contest for the Fall 2023 issue depicts an older Orthodox Jewish man reading the Torah on the subway. The woman sitting next to him is speaking. My seven submitted captions are shown below. The drawing is by Benjamin Schwartz.

"Again, you're menschspreading."
"Isn't that out yet in paperpack?"
"Check if there's a law against what you're doing."
"Then your subway map must be in what you call the aron kodesh."
"Here we prefer doomscrolling."
"If I chant Etz Chaim, will you put that away?"
"May I offer you something with vowels?"
