The man is checking his phone and saying something to his wife.<\/p>\n<p>I first assumed this was a reference to the reduced demand for oil (a consequence of the pandemic) that has forced companies like Exxon and Mobil to get creative when storing the growing surplus. Maybe the couple has tried to capitalize on this situation by turning their home into a storage center and charging the oil companies exorbitant fees. But maybe the husband just received bad news, at least for them: <strong>\u201cThe pandemic reduces the demand for oil, Exxon pays us to store the surplus, and\u2026dammit, there\u2019s a vaccine.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I then imagined that the oil was an investment:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>\u201cGold is fine, but I prefer liquid assets.\u201d<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>\u201cDammit, the price of oil keeps falling.\u201d<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Now let\u2019s see how you did:<\/p>\n<p>A couple of you had the man telling his wife she should not be surprised by the number of barrels:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>&#8220;You knew I was a collector when you married me.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;You knew I was a hoarder when you married me.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Another one of you had the husband getting defensive:\u00a0 <strong>\u201cI didn\u2019t mock you when you stocked up on toilet paper.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s another TP joke: <strong>&#8220;This guy will trade us sixty rolls for a barrel of oil.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Many of you suggested that the oil barrels were an investment.

They wanted us to age the whisky in oak.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As long as I\u2019m being so critical, I\u2019ll address this entry: <strong>&#8220;Do we have enough oil for the Chanukah lights and latkes?&#8221;<\/strong> I like the concept, but most people don\u2019t use oil to light the candles, and the word \u201coil\u201d is unnecessary. I\u2019d therefore suggest this shorter version: \u201cDo we have enough for the latkes?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Like I did, one of you alluded to the fact that oil producers are, during the pandemic, having a hard time finding enough storage space for their surplus supplies: <strong>\u201cThe Saudis are asking if we have room for a few million more.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This entry explains why the man purchased so many barrels: <strong>\u201cWe saved three cents a gallon buying in bulk.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While this entry implies that he ended up with them by mistake: <strong>&#8220;I should&#8217;ve checked before confirming my order.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This caption suggests that the barrels contain something far worse than oil: <strong>\u201cToxic waste stock is down again.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While this caption presumes that the barrels are not for storage at all: <strong>&#8220;I can&#8217;t sell a vintage depth charge to save my life.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Finally, here are three strong captions that don\u2019t fit into any particular category:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>\u201cYou know someone with the initials BP?\u201d<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>\u201cWe can get another barrel if we sell the chairs.\u201d<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Ok, now let&#8217;s find something to fill them with.\u201d<\/strong><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This week\u2019s winner is, <strong>\u201cWhat&#8217;s a three-letter word for Texas tea?\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cartoonstock.com\/blog\/cartoon-caption-contest\/\" class=\"button\">ENTER THIS WEEK&#8217;S CAPTION CONTEST<\/a><\/p>\n<p>  <em>Lawrence Wood has won The New Yorker\u2019s Cartoon Caption Contest a record-setting seven times and been a finalist two other times.
