Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for February 20, 2022

I was outcroissanted once. I ate the evidence.

These so-called reinforcements seem unusually talented. A triple threat, even.

There is at least one character.

Not just lame, but gold lamé

Vowels and consonants are hung up in a book called love..

Reinforcement this generation are a force of Luke warm coffee in a state of Sintry duty. What happened to speed and smokes.

You’re never outnumbered with the Frog Patrol.  So many, many characters.

Now for an encore

Harden Core rockin in the fat ladies discosong.

I know it’s a stretch.

So long as we have the cordwainer contingent on our side, we shall not be outlasted!

If Bob Keeshan was alive this would kill him.

If you weren’t still keeping your numbers and letters in an old loose leaf binder, you wouldn’t need reinforcements.

For some reason, I’m imagining decks of Disneyfied playing cards marching toward the front lines.

But a yellow blazer trumps everything!

…what do you know…

…I laughed out loud at this one…

…I would have used: LOL…

…but one of the Ten Commandments is …

…thou shall not take the Lord’s name in vain…

…OMG…

…we are not very good with that one…

…now, I don’t even like using the CIA, the FBI or the KBG…

…FA is still more than OK to use…

…it is encouraged…

" Hear the pitter-patter of little feet? // It’s the 1st Cav in full retreat! "

Fightin’ words fer sure!

Those shirt and jacket colors will give you black eyes …!

Well done!

If you didn’t spend so much time waxing your handle bar mustache, we wouldn’t be in this mess.

This looks like a job for the Editor.

All’s quiet on the western font.

This even-sportier spoof of Teddy Roosevelt, Rough Rider and self-made cowboy, wears garish, unfashionable yellow and orange clothing to go into battle. 1, 5, 6, 7, 9, and 10, and 12 for the duodecimal system, plus all the LAMEless letters, and who-knows-how-many from the ever-expanding Emoji Universe outnumber and surround him, and he makes a much better target than did the 7th Cavalry, maybe wearing yellow bandanas, at the Battle of the Greasy Grass…

G.A. Custer and faux Teddy share similar Destiny, and that’s lame….
