Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for June 01, 2021

Door nail. Orange you glad I didn’t say banana?

I’d say she was missing her pretty pink head, but it looks pretty red to me.

Is it possible to die in the living room?

I surely hope death is a woman, that way it will never come for me.

Don’t challenge death to a pillow fight, unless you’re prepared for reaper cushions.

Too late.

Trying to maintain a light tone and a steady, upbeat patter, with persons so self-absorbed that they cannot be bothered to interact with the world at all, is such a burden. Knock, knock, indeed sir. Knock, knock, indeed.

Don’t answer the idiot call.

Shave and a haircut, two bits..

Who is there? Who Who ..

Who Who Who? Owls are winning during the 7thi inning stretch…Boo Who

Okay, Okay … Who’s there, Who’s there …

Who Who, Who Who (but I really DON’t wanna know) …!

Don’t ask for whom the bell tolls, I think it hit them in the head.

Knock, knock, you’re dead.

You’re dead who?

I said death don’t have no mercy in this land.

Death will leave you standing and crying in this land,

In this land. whoa! come to your house,

Why’ know it don’t stay long, why’ look in bed this morning,

And find you are gone.

Your feeble feigning innocence will not elicit a response from the recently-deceased, and you know it! Confess, killer! No knocked-off humor in this Crime Scene! The CSIs say you did it, then attempted a sheety cover-up….

Here comes the stars tumbling around me, and there’s the sky where the sea should be.

~ Sigman/Bécaud/Delanoë

::sigh::

Who’s there?

He’s surprised to be answered with dead silence?

Lain. Lain who? Lain Slain.

Psycho Momma Up To Bat. The old bat stomps out fear.

Tennis Anyone? Do the new dance, twist twist around the neck.

…waiting through that awkward time between death and becoming a zombie…

… Is it a coincidence that this comic is here on June 2nd?…

…open up day?…

…his knock knock jokes are just killing them…

….he also is wearing a t-shirt that says, I see dead people…

…is going through the jaw an effective zombie kill?…

…or do you have to hit the brain?…

…cuz they kill them way too easy on TWD…

…every knife strike goes right through the skull…

…never bounces off…

…never knocks the knife out of your hand…

… that is way I stopped watching…

…it became soon unrealistic…

“Not you anymore.”

Wonder who “knocked” him off? AND nobody’s there if ya want to know!

Down at the 12th Precinct:

Joan Crawford’s character: “My husband died of natural causes.”

Police detective: “You pushed him off the roof of your building.”

Crawford character: “Gravity’s natural.”

Our eternal reply is always: Who’s there? Who is there? Who is really there?

Knock down, drag out, rinse, repeat.

Day 2. Is the blood stain spreading? Is the vic still alive?!

(Just amusing myself with a little Day 2 fantasy….)

I’d run if I heard a response like “Who’s there?”
