    Such important and timely information, Teresa. I have long been confused about the mysterious danger involving safety pins, but I could never figure out why I kept impaling myself. Now I think I know. My safety pin was OPEN.

    You are not the sharpest safety pin in the junk drawer.

    A warning wouldn’t matter anyway, if you work with safety pins guaranteed you will end up stabbing yourself at some point…. Pun not intended but I’ll roll with it. (I actually spelled “guaranteed” correctly without spell check kicking in! I should win a prize or something for that!)

    … this is useful information…

    …where was it yesterday when I was using one to hold up my swim trunks?…

    …does this aptly apply to guns?…

    …er…I mean forks…

    … I need a safety fork…

    …and what about Redd Foxx records?…

    …or super 8mm porn movies?…

    …(not that I would know-…

    …-just asking for my cousin)…

    … I stoled home and was safe…

    …and I almost hit a homerun, but got robbed…

    …I just don’t know anymore…

    … I look in the rearview mirror and everything’s backwards…

    …but I look a the rearview camera and it isn’t…

    It is secured safely. It isn’t your safety that counts for anything, but that of the work being done.

    We had nothing but the Jerry Lewis Telethon.

    Now they have every Steven Universe episode.

    I don’t want to be a pinhead no more, I just met a nurse that I could go for.

    This is all new to me … I have never seen a safety pin that looks like this one …

    Is it approved by the FDA (Frog Dementia Administration) …?

    … I guess this proves that Frog Applause is only for sharp readers…

    …screw safety pins…

    …next thing you know we’ll have to wear earplugs when we mow…

    …put on sunscreen…

    …put on helmets when we ride motorcycles…

    …chew with pouches …

    …and never drink any colas…
