Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for April 23, 2021

I’d like a drumroll before I eat my egg roll, please.

I think what you are trying to say is, Help! I’ve been steam rolled! I guess it’s better than being rick rolled?

Yes, a good eggroll or springroll is much more welcome than a drumroll or a barrelroll.

A fat bankroll is even more welcome. Then off to the bedroll.

The way prices are climbing these days, you’d need a bankroll to buy an eggroll (or a springroll).

Yes. Chinese food is always the answer.

…Eggroll…

…like the Fatman on Batman…

…was an early Tv D.C. super-villian …

…his meek mild disguise was as J Edgar Drumroll…

…a renowned Ringo Star scholar during the day…

…and a Pete Best fanatic at night…

…a political piranha on the floor…

…he stole from the poor and gave to the rich…

…the F-U superplane his super areoplane…

…the Hummer A-Tune is villainy inspired truck…

…to say he fought Mr. Plastic was a stretch…

…because he killed him with paperwork and redtape…

…no worries…

…Mr. Plastic was recreatedas Solar Power…

…he melted Eggroll into an omelet…

…and they wore tights together…{ complete with underwelts}…

…they formed gerrymandering together…

…in Central City and Akron…

…and happier ever after…

… The End…

You’re five short.

Just order six items and the eggroll is free.

Isn’t that the second Dutch Master from the left?

Looks like Shakespeare… is he creating another sonnet? …Too many egg rolls in my soup, Thou bring me a strainer, to scoop scoop scoop!

Google, does my sky map show any nearby restaurants with a drive-thru?

Professor eggRoll may drum

Roll and red carpet roll out the monkeys

With two you get drumroll.

Oh yes.

He wants that egg to be rolled all over his face.

Harry’s hair curlers life time guarantee.

An egg will spin if it is hard boiled

En garde! Aramis, Porthos, and Athos … I have come “fourth“ to egg you on … laissez les bon temps rouler …!

When your paints are runny, your drumroll, too, may turn into an icky, runny, eggroll.

Toast it!

(May I have a drumroll, please?) Huzzah! Here’s to the peerless, toasty, crunchy eggroll!

I’ll have General Tso’s chicken, please….
