splash! Hey there, COMICS FANS! It's the ELLEN WRIGHT GUIDE TO...CARTOON SOUND EFFECTS! Ellen: Howdy, folks! As you all know, SOUND EFFECTS are a vital part of my cheesy, soap-opera comic strip, EVER-LOVIN' ELLEN! Here are some examples! When I apply make-up in the morning, it sounds like THIS: SPLURCH! BLAT! ...Or how about THIS sound effect when I pluck my hedge-like eyebrows? Skeeeeee POINK! On occasion, I walk into objects for no apparent reason! Listen to THIS: Flup! TONG! What's THAT sound? An industrial-strength wet-dry vac? NO! It's me kissing my boyfriend Gordie! SCHLURRRP! So there you have it, friends! Even a boring, lame life like MINE can be enlivened by the wonderful world of SOUND! Francis: Did you hear something? Nate: Nope.
