"Frog Applause reminds one of learning to read, in the sense that each word in the captions seems 'surprising' and new. Teresa's writing takes one back to that fresh state of mind (typical of, but of course not limited to, childhood) in which the brain, free of preconceptions, doesn't 'fill in' any blind spots along the way but rather wholly embraces the present moment as it unfolds. Every sentence is literally an imagination-expanding adventure." — Craig Conley, author of One-Letter Words: A Dictionary (HarperCollins)

I’ve never seen ‘Eve’s Bayou’. Has anyone else?
‘The Bad Seed’ is reincarnated as a duckling?

I think I know why this strip is called “Frog Applause”; “Non Sequitir” was already taken.

I make a lot of allowances for Teresa, but this one goes too far, even for an online strip.

This is clearly not a waterfowl to be ducked with.

“Eve’s Bayou” the best movie nobody ever saw?
Are you forgetting “Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid?”

As regular readers know… Ms D is a child abuse survivor (almost wrote surveyor, which doesn’t make any sense at all…) ie: this strip works on a number of levels one of which means we’ve got to find “Eve’s Bayou” which will answer(?) some questions..

I find I always learn something new from the comics or the comments.

pschearer… You make “allowances” for Teresa? How benevolent of you.

Teresa, I sense you have been spending your evenings watching the darker movies from your Netflix queue.
Might I suggest “Sisters”.

Pschearer, please edit your favorites appropriately. And this is one of the more brilliant demonstrations of Teresa’s surreal wit yet, IMO.

I would suggest “The Hanging Garden”…

I’m just glad Eve’s Bayou, I don’t want her anywhere near me…
