   So would William Hanna, Joe Babrera, Lou Schmer, Norm Prescot (Filmation, Inc.), David D. Patie and Fritz Freeling.

   David DePatie and Friz Freleng.

   But if anyone deserves credit for popularizing this type of gag, I agree that it should be Tex Avery.

   “Poink” is cartoon FX heard mostly in those Hanna-Barbera shows (Non-H-B cartoons as well). Sound coose to the word “point”. This sound FX mostly means someone (or some thing) being stuck in rear (or the eye) by a sharp object following by the obligatory yell of pain.

   Wow, when I watched cartoons on TV, they didn’t spell out the sound effects. Did you have the closed-captioning on, Josh, or have you read the scripts?
