In The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest #978 from the issue of February 9, 2026, a man opens his front door to let in an ocean wave while a woman inside the house stands on a surf board awaiting its arrival. The man speaks. The drawing is by Michael Maslin.

Note: In 2019, Michael Maslin wrote a Personal History about his (and other New Yorker cartoonists's) use of the versatile caption "It's for you." Read it here. After all, it's for you.
