Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for November 09, 2016

Harmless?

You obviously have never sat in the crumbs left by a potato chip munching pipe smoking kangaroo rat!

(It’s almost worse than sand at the beach.)

Could you please pipe down the unnerving potato chip crunching sounds..

Lay’s couch potato

Good advice. If you’re just sitting at home and mellowing out and there is a pipe-smoking kangaroo rat with you, be very careful what you presume to be food. Not everything on the coffee table is edible.

Had you even considered the possibility that the couch may be a rat potato!

Of course not… typical of a chipist.

This is not a pipe smoking kangaroo rat, its a picture of one.

Someone had to say it, these are desperate times.

Ce n’est pa une pipe fumant Kangourou rat. – Magritte

He’s harmless because he’s short of breath.

this is a test

Such a wise, professorial kangaroo rat. I can understand and sympathize.

Kangaroo rats in my yard are chubbier, especially the thighs.

Get the rat his newspaper and slippers, maybe a cold one.

Once upon a time, kiddies…,

I freely admit to this August Circle of Frogs ‘Round a Pond that I used to smoke an occasional pipe. It was mostly an affectation, since I really didn’t enjoy it much, even on those occasions when I could keep the dang thing lit….

I’m not sure that’s relevant, but I don’t know anything about kangaroo rats, much less pipe-smoking ones. I do eat potato chips, though usually not while sitting on the couch. My preference is for Ballreich’s, but they have only a limited, regional distribution (though they can be mail-ordered). Best potato chips I’ve ever had!

Hybrid potato seeds, cross breeding of crops. Blight was a problem in Ireland and as they all used the same type of potato seed it affected all of the crop.

A hybrid cross breed of Willie Nelson pot and Bob Dylan pot might shake the family tree!

Qu up some David Coverdale and stay put on the sofa.

Are those the imitation potato chips that cause… um… leakage?

I may be a couch potato but would never jump or even hop to such a conclusion.

Ah!

Nothing like the salty taste of fraudulence!

It’s more natural than Sea Salt, you know…

Imitation Potato Chips are my favorite brand.Now made with even more of the miracle ingredient fraudulence.

The chips in the picture are a focal point when answering mundane questions. Placed there by the questioner. Probably plastic, a kind of distraction from avoiding staring at the person while dragging on and on with the process. Look for these focal points at such paperwork times that need to be filled out.

Plastic vomit would work for me when answering questions in the ER.

This type of picture may involve anger management…..

A kindergarten baby stuck in the gravy, while he’s starting out and someone is ending their life…

A potato chip that is not the shape of a chip. Maybe Barney the Purple Dinosaur potato snack.

Don’t drink the water if escaping into Mexico

Is blood thicker than Mexican water?

In my experience, the “potato chips” are actually wood shavings in a bowl, which have been soaked in an aromatic oil and placed out as a potpourri.

They are a bit Chewie, making it a Wookie mistake.

He’s all hopped up on potato chips.
