Transcript:
Croc: Okay, zeeba nieghba, crocs has new stratagee. We ees smash you wid rock. Me say where to throw. Burt throw. Dat prove we great team. Dat prove we work togedder. Dat - Noise: CRACK. Croc: Speech go on leetle long.
Zeeba Neighba is so horrified by what he has just seen! Burt has killed Bob again! Bob is now splat-flat beneath the Rock o’ Shame! Of course, croc morality is not like ours or Zeeba’s….
SusanSunshine – I believe that what Bilan was trying to say is that Burt, the thrower, should have ended up on the other side of the wall (in the crocs’ yard). In outer space, he’d be correct – Burt throwing the rock would propel him backward (like the recoil of a gun). However, standing on a wall, he can use the friction provided by the wall and adjustments in his balance to compensate for the force he must use to propel the rock. The heavier the rock, the harder this is to do, mind you…
Congress was part of a usually-effective well-designed government that functioned pretty well until Koch started putting the money he stole from oil on Indian reservations into conservative subversive organizations…currently his Tea Party, working on the plans that Stalin gave to Koch’s dad, is very successful at breaking up the constitutionally-mandated government. Meanwhile, Koch is making so much money from his illegal dealings with Iran that he plans a New Deal Tea Party…we really DO need congress, a REAL congress, and a few less rightwinger traitors who’ve sold out…sorry, kid, but you know, I’m an American and I’m seeing just what criminals with ill-gotten money can do…like, for instance, hire Limbaugh and his writers and found and fund the T Party…AND persuade croc-minded Americans that they’re patriots…

Oh thank god for Burt. Now if only we could do that when politicians interrupt TV programs.
Bilan almost 13 years ago
Newton’s Third Law of Motion in action: The rock ended up on side of the wall and the croc ended up on the other.

Zebra is responsible of this death! Put him in jail!

Bilan…. um…. look again.
I see little stick croc feet radiating from under the rock.
Does Zebra have a crock pot? Or do all these (presumably) Bobs just end up in the compost?

@Raspberryice54Actually, the Mayans had less days in their calendar compared to our current 7 day calendar. So, 12/21/12 has already come and gone.

@SusanSunshineFortunately for Zebra, they respawn back at the croc house, not resurrect where they fell.

I’ve frequently wanted to hit someone in the head with a rock who’s being remarkably long-winded. Usually at work. . .

New stratagee: Bob should bob while making long speech.

Or else Bob needs to say where to trow rock earlier. Quit monologuing. Yammering! I mean, you gots zeeba on a platter, so shut up!

killacowinWA almost 13 years ago
The crocs are like Kenny in South Park. They constantly die, only to wake up in bed the next morning with no one remembering that they died.

Congress is needed to pass laws, and they take their job seriously. Unless a law is really needed, then they ignore it.
