In what might be a harbinger of the Amalgamated Humor Mascot election to be held this November, Cap'n Wacky was voted off the island by his fellow tribemates Wednesday.

The final count surprised some. Wacky has been an important part of the Bigbong Tribe since they first landed on the island.

"Sure, he was a hard worker," said tribesmate Bob. "Yes, he built the shelter, caught some yummy rats, constructed the play-area, and taught the monkeys to fish for us, but he had some annoying habits too. For instance, every time I made a mistake or fell off my hammock onto him, he would take off his captain's hat and whack me over the head with it. That's no way to treat a guy you call your 'little buddy'."


CAP'N WACKY'S FINAL WORDS:
I hope the backstabbers all get scurvy. No! Eaten by rats! I hope the rats get them. Screw them, I'm going to go get a pizza.
I shoulda been in the other tribe with the hillbilly, God-boy, the old fart, Dr. Nipple Ring, and the screaming queen. They woulda liked me.
"Jackass," he added.

While a tribe leader around the camp, the Cap'n was a liability to the team in immunity challanges.

"Have you seen the dude's lazy eye?" commented tribemate Dawn. "Not only does that make it, like, hard for him to catch and throw and stuff, but, you know... it's really creepy."

"Also he kept asking to borrow my bikini," added Tina.

Several other castaways also noted "the smell."

Cap'n Shifty, Wacky's rival for the mascot title, issued a statement.

"I would've done much better," Shifty said. "I woulda had them kids marching and following me orders. I also woulda bagged that little cutie in the jungle by now."
