Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for June 18, 2012

Shark!!!!

I think we’re overdue for a visit from Miss Ninette. She’s always so helpful.

Yet another cheap Jaws knockoff gore-fest, this summer’s exploitation-cartoon has plenty of sex, blood, and cheesy, lame humor. Rating: one foot down.

Can you say piranha in the pool ?Where I live you have a choice of sharks in the Gulf or gators in the lake.Enjoy your swim…

Shake a leg.

Don’t get too chummy with her.

That’ll keep um fed for a while.

I’ve never been able to do a good tansliteration of the “Jaws” theme.

…is that Nemo?

i like birds,and b88bs,and cupcake sprinkles,and rabbits.

This must be meant as a searing indictment of the gratuitous violence offered up by the media – the fish is clearly meant to represent the hapless tv viewer.On the other hand, it could also be a searing indictment of David Hockney.

speaking of the Jaws Theme, this is pretty good:Kitty/Jaws

Aftermath of a game of Extreme Footsie.

My Mom to the shark … “What’s the matta’? you don’t like the other foot???”

Man, that is one hungry little fish, with a really freaky metabolism.

Maybe the little fish just wants some toe jam for dessert.

MEAT CLEAVER NECKLACEIt’s pretty obvious exactly how low that is meant to hang.

I love when this happens:The small image sized to fit here links to the full size screen clipping.

Just yesterday I watched Piranha 3-D and followed it up with Piranha 3DD

Is it Brattleboro, VT that has no indecent exposure laws, so that on a hot day you will see young women in town topless, along with with some local old coot who just naked?Will investigate this summer. Films at eleven.

Which goes to prove, you can’t judge a book by its cover. Watch out for those ‘little guys’

Today on my two week road trip, I find myself in Glascow, Montana. No sharks here, just oil workers flush with cash. I will be doing a meet and greet with a fish tonight though, as I dine on walleye.

I don’t know about David Peel… I first heard that one done by the Fugs.

Re Blog: PIONEER WOMAN IN MEATMs. Teresa, that is too scary! Every single comment that came to mind would have either gotten me flagged or thrown off permanently. It’s NOT the first time I’ve had to bite my tongue and sit on my hands, while laughing my tuckus off.Keep up the great work.P.S. My mother was a typical Irish/English cook. She could overcook the best piece of meat anytime.

Yew!!!!!!!!!!

Re: WE APPRECIATE YOUR FEEDBACKI read over 100 strips on GoComics, but comment on about 10 (as a PRO). Which means ≈ $0.09 per cartoonist per month.What a segway to my next comment.

Re: PIONEER WOMAN IN MEATInstead of saying “My family doesn’t like that.” She says, “I’ll cook it, they’ll eat it or go hungry. If we could afford meat then I’d toss this #%# {Tofu|eggplant|Soy|?}.”

Good point. Heck, I didn’t know what a sirloin stake ( sic) was until I left home. I thought spam was meat.

RE: Blog: Nothing/Everything-Funny how a simple twist can change everything. It’s almost a mobiustery.
