Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for February 20, 2018

Damnedest sand trap I’ve ever played.

A certain horse sense.

Guy on the left: “Looks like a cursive storm is brewing, George.”

George: “Someday my prints will come ….”

Power Outage. Been in the Power Closet too long

1 : equal in force, power, or validity2 : the same in effect or signification

Nope, nothing about bees pollinating plants, and it doesn’t require antihistamines, either.

Pressured to prove his theories or lose funding, Doctor Beckett, prematurely stepped into the Project Accelerator and vanished.

Being a couple of sentient fellows, Baldy and Wispy soon tired of the endless tic tac toe ties.

 

After years of meticulous and painstaking research it is my conclusion that one of five generic comments covers every Frog Applause™ strip:

1.      Don’t you people ever sleep?

2.      I don’t get it.

3.      Insert J.C. Duffy questions marks >here<.

4.      The overlords aren’t gonna like this.

…. (and, if all else fails) …

5.      sp-spi spi-tooey (Oops. I mean …) Spork!

The holes in my memory help me cover over the holes in my life.

Holes in hedges make fine homes.

They can pollinate each other all they want but it will just leave an inconvenient and embarrassing memory hole.

I fell into a memory hole and forgot where I was. I cured my amnesia with an amanuensis

I have no memory of Nikita Khrushchev meeting with Pablo Picasso.

Ask your doctor about Memorix, the Spackle for those inconvenient and embarrassing Memory Holes.

It’s equipollent structure supports the weight of the vaguest of memories, making them plausible, and in some instances, bankable!

Can’t speak to the inconvenience but they’re only embarrassing when you 3-putt them.

Could be a Philip Dick story.

A company removes memories you don’t want but that leaves memory holes which can be filled by whatever you choose.

Memory holes, this reminds me of a three seat outhouse.

Yes, for these inconvenient and embarrassing Kodak Moments, “memory holes” would assuredly be a Good Thing.

Failing that, I shall have to have you removed from my personal history. There’s an app for that. You understand, Old Chap. Nothing personal; just Best Practices in our business, hmm?

To bad this isn’t an animated FA. I was looking forward to a couple of face plants on some jagged-edged beams.
