Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for February 12, 2017

I’ll have a long black and a piteraq danish.

Hatari, hatari, Will Robinson! Atari!

This comic strip is a lot of hot air.

And you told me

Fool fire water won’t hurt me

And you tease me

And all my ladies desert me

That crown reminds me of one of Dan Piraro’s secret symbols. It’d be fun to see a slice of pie show up one of these days, Teresa.

Williwaw is the brand name of a line of rafts made by Maravia in Boise, ID. I rowed one on the MFS in the summer of ’15. Nice boat.

BUNNY!

Bar Bar the meteorologist.

This is going downhill fast.

Psych, Gotcha!

Now we know why the Danes are so melancholy.

and a chill settles on the group, as the wind continues to blow.

So this is the new Shoe Cabbage!

Pull me under.

Pull me under.

Pull me under, I’m not afraid.

Living my life too much in the Sun,

Only until your will is done.

- Dream Theater; Pull Me Under

Bwah! Boo hoo hoo!

I don’t speak Frog Applause!

I’ve never noticed this deficiency before; I must be going senile….

This is the only comic strip that ever causes me to consult a dictionary — and it does so on a regular basis. I like that!

@Richard Lloyd. This isn’t the first, second, or even one-hundredth time someone has mentioned needing a dictionary when reading FA some days. I’m sure some people (nincompoops, people not interested in enriching their vocabulary, or just lazy-losers) are turned off by this unexpected chore, but I’m not. Glad to know you aren’t either. I just wish I had the brain cells to retain all my newfound knowledge.

Funny bunny. King with an upturned trunk.
