Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for September 19, 2011

Writhe maggots, writhe!!

That Nature’s Toothbrush ad is priceless!

And it was such a good idea, too…

Arr, matey, it be TLAP day…

So, is he a Drill Instructor with a platoon in So You Think You Can Dance? Dance, you maggots!

Just play some of that Camp Town Ladies song and you’ll have them dancing around like a bunch on Kansas City maggots.

And here I thought I had tickets for Lord of the Dance.

@Gaijinrabbit: I’ll typically load additional comments on a page for the day the comic is up, but usually don’t go back to previous days. When Pibgorn had a live comment board here, that was not the case – I often referred to previous days for reference. Unfortunately, that board was infested by trolls and shut down. A reduced community survives at Yahoo!

Time for the maggots to get down and dirty.

Arrr, me mateys, we’re all beggin’ the question: what’s the medium in which our rhythm-challenged maggots move, eh? P’raps that’s the problem.

America’s Got Talent… season 7….

If he had any sense he would trade in his maggots for bed bugs, just to prove that he is still alive.

Teresa, those are not typical gocomics readers they are typical comic characters. In this case they reside in Cul de Sac.

Shouldn’t it be “He’d get no honorable mention, let alone a trophy”? Isn’t a trophy more prized than an HM? Someone needs a spanking.

Or…“He’d win no trophy, not even an honorable mention.”

Oh Maggots I wish I never seen your face…

there once was a maggot from Nantucket………

My nephew bought me a copy of David Thorne’s book. It’s funny .

He shut down the chatroom just prior to a short Christmas story arc in which it was implied that Santa caught the reindeer engaging in lewd behavior. Hilarious. Teresa, on the other hand seems to encourage interaction with the blog, kind of like audience participation street theatre.

I’ll never be able to look at a stalk of CELERY again without thinking of the phrase “Ribbed For Xtra Pleasure”.

@Runar: Yes, Brooke did request the forum be shut down, but it never would have happened if it had not been for the trolls, some of whom were waging a cowardly war of pure nastiness. Add to this the fact that some of the regulars started making unsavory comments or inappropriate speculations, and it was sufficient to tip the balance in favor of bringing the comments to a close.
