Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for December 17, 2017

Ice cream in you dreams are still making a scene

Next time check the punk life along with the shelf life.

Does he eat this cereal every morning?

Is it normal to eat your conversational partners using another conversational partner, even if the communication isn’t everything you’ve hoped for?

Another one of Teresa’s contorted metaphors for life. Don’t we eat each other every day… depleting each other’s energies, peace of mind, etc. Heck, I’ve eaten plenty of people alive. (I have a dark side when I’m in self-preservation mode.)

How bout NyQuel® in a spoon floating over a hot oven burner all day? This will take me higher and higher.

I slave all day to put food on the table and you tell me this is stressing you out.

Wish I was a Kellogg’s Cornflake

Floatin’ in my bowl takin’ movies

Relaxin’ a while, livin’ in style

Talkin’ to a raisin who

’casionally plays L.A.

Casually glancing at his toupee

Wish I was an English muffin

’Bout to make the most out of a toaster

I’d ease myself down

Comin’ up brown

I prefer boysenberry

More than any ordinary jam

I’m a “Citizens for Boysenberry Jam” fan

Why try a sticky roll!

Have you considered that the lack of communication come from your inability to empathize with your marshmallow and cereal bits? Your relationship seems to have grown stale. Maybe it is for the best, as you are still changing and maturing while they seem to have settled into a comfortable state of equilibrium. I know it may be difficult, but perhaps it is time to realize that it is over, and you now require a more mature breakfast relationship.

All I ever hear is, “Snap, crackle and pop.”

Check the lad’s ritalin level.

You’re a cereal offender armed with a spoon. Of course your breakfast won’t take you seriously. If you want a meal to respect you, cook it and eat it with a knife and fork.

Pour some 40-weight over a big steaming bowl of buckwheat groats. That’ll set you straight.

I insist that pop’s the sound

The best is missed unless pop’s around.

You can’t stop hoppin’ when the cereal’s poppin’,

Snap Crackle Pop Rice Krispies

 

Get a spork*

* If we’ve learned ANYTHING over these past 10 years and 362 days**, it’s that you ignore a spork at your peril.

** It just seems longer due to the lameness.

Belladonna can do that.

Sugary cereal has never afforded me the type of conversation I crave. The loops and pops are too focused on inane small talk and narrow minded gossip. I prefer to start my morning with a considered discussion, and that means eschewing the vapid rollercoaster ride of corny saccharine highs and lows for a more robust measured Choo-Choo Train of thought with my Turkey Eye Toast and Camels Breath Tea.

He’s cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs!

I’m trying to figure out the second panel, but I’m drawing a blank.

Maybe it was written in lemon juice?

Now lets muster up the motivation to work on some chores to complete around inside the house once when finishing the solo conversations, and when finishing the cereal of which the bowl temporarily holds inside..

Member when cereal use ta didn’t talk? Member?

For Office use only;

Commentor appears to be cracking, experiment is working.

I consider the second half of today’s lesson to be the more important. But I’m drawing a blank. For Office Use Only, hmm? What might this signify?

The piddling cereal chatter is of no consequence to me. I do not eat cereal. Haven’t done so since I was a mere sprout myself. So far the fruits and bakery goods that form my alternatives have maintained a circumspect silence, not even “talking back” after ingestion. Smart fare!

@Arianne “I’m trying to figure out the second panel, but I’m drawing a blank.” It took me five hours, but I finally caught that. Superb!

And with a quiet “pop!”, ThreeHourTour disappears again, taking all the replies with him.

I’m in awe. I figured that GC was blocking FA from their trending stats — being the meanies they tend to be.

I guess all of these lame comments work for Teresa’s benefit! Haha, GC. You can’t mess with The Lame.
