Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for February 16, 2013

Bill O’Reilly confronting Chris Matthews – Each trying to argue that they’ve got the hardest balls !!

I’ve seen Internet wars between Yelp reviewers and irate restaurant owners that pretty much looked exactly like this.

I yodel regularly (in my car, where no one can hear me) – I bought “U2 can Yodel” from my good friend Kerry Christensen, whom I knew in Austria, and spent years learning how to do it. I don’t have the pipes so it sounds pretty wretched, but I enjoy it, and that’s all that counts. As for that other thing, I haven’t been asked to do that since I was a camper in the 60’s (daily health check, you know). One other thing: I stand with Flight Suit. Those who think that the oppression of women and minorities is a baseless, liberal conspiracy are deluding themselves. There is no question that progress has been made over the last century, but racism, sexism, human trafficking and exploitation are very much alive in our society, and we must not cease to fight them.

I just love to watch two OCD prigs have at each other! It’s more fun than the art school spitting match when I was of single-digit age….

As a librarian, it literally pains me to see the books stacked that way. I need therapy.

The blog: Heinz writes that his division’s coming home! Psst…the enemy is listening too.—- The Nazi version of “Loose lips sink ships”, if I’ve got that right.

I WANT A SLICE OF PIZZA WITH DINOSAUR!!!!

You need to give Big Wave Dave a fan link!

Teresa

You’re welcome.

However, I can’t take all the credit. The “Backwoods Redneck Trash” sobriquet was Somebody Else’s idea.

David

Wow man! I’m seeing stripes before my eyes!

I spent yesterday morning at our Subaru dealer while they soldered a wire that had been chewed by a rodent. If I had not discovered it until later the repairs could have cost me up to $1000.

Is that Yodeling WHILE graphing bowel movements or seperate from?.Big difference there..@cleokaya: Park your car at the Denver Airport recently?

BUNNIES ATTACKING CARS AT DENVER AIRPORTI think it’s squirrels or mice, especially mice, but we have similar problems. Had a gas line chewed and leaking. Have to change the air filters often because they get a lot of seeds and nesting material in them. One car’s battery keeps discharging after a few days most likely because of a short in a chewed wire.

Pst! Feind hort mit! An alternative set of captions could be:“Say, did you know that there is a secret male conspiracy to oppress us?”“Pst! One of them is listening!”

No, I never park at an airport.

@TeresaDoes it count if I have snagged a couple of my bunny avatars off of the blog?

My avatar is from the blog… it’s sort of my favorite picture, ever.

RE: ALABAMA SHAKES – HOLD ONJust saw them on Saturday Night Live. She reminds me of Janis Joplin but with a much better voice. Terrific group !!

Aaaah those woolly chaps guys are holding hands. How modern.

Dresser vs Chest of Drawers: a Dresser is a chest of drawers with a mirror on the top.

I’m guessing “Boob Tube Race” induced more migraines than “Hungry Hungry Hippos”. I played “HHH” once. Insanely loud, which somehow never came across in the commercials.

Tell Milton to speak for himself.

I can state without equivocation that Milton Bradley has no idea what the hqiz he is talking about.

Halitosis is better than no breath.

@Teresa: I felt compelled to point out that your Frog Applause Translator has been resurrected. It works again, so you might wish to re-update that particular FA page.

I have been one person who has been trying to get bison as the official name for the animal. There is a National Park in Canada named Wood Buffalo National Park. That sets my campaign back significally.

Re: BOOB TUBE RACE GAME in the blog. My grandparents had these. Thank you Teresa for reminding me of the good times I had at their house.

re: Boob Tube ages: you have at least one reader younger than six, although it is somewhat censored. She very much enjoys the bunny pictures, the kid pictures, the comics, and feeding the turtles.
