Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for August 10, 2020

Stupid? Froglandia rules!

Those guys seem a little sluggish to me…

Stupid rules are all that stop chaos from becoming anarchy.

Fish heads, fish heads, rolly pully fish heads, fish heads, fish heads, eat them up yum!

… yikes, I totally missed the Froglandia family reunion…

…Jason was a man of many hats…

…but his baseball cap with lights on the bill was his favorite…

…the husband/wife sack race was always weird…

…Yet, none of them are wearing a mask…

…Jimmy never should have let Jared use his hat…

…all was fun & games until the tuna salad turned into a cold killer…

…now, I can’t get Radio Head out of my head…

…I think if the football bounces off the goalpost it should always be one extra point…

…“oops! Must be the wrong hat!”…

The thinking hat, or the dunce hat…

It’s the thought that counts.

The hat theme was later incorporated in the distinctly Froglandian sport of Tadpole, in which all team uniforms are identical, except for the hats, which must be worn during any action. Tadpole spectators are allowed to throw snowballs to remove the hats of the team the do not want to win. But it did originate much earlier, during the Picnic Era.

Little known fact: the sack race came into being at a time when slugs were very prominent in the Froglandian imagination. People thought, Well, what if slugs could hop? Wouldn’t it be fun to make a competition out of it? Determined efforts to teach or induce slugs or grubs to fly proved fruitless, and the sack race emerged, much to everyone’s ennui.

Dictator for Life and Chief Rule Maker, Calvin, was off his game this year.

We look forward to next year’s competition when style and interpretation is rumored to be added to the mix.

So this is what’s replacing MLB, NBA, NFL, etc.?

Just fitting in can be a challenge … especially at the Froglandian border … both physical and that written test from Hell … how many Spongebob characters can YOU name …?

The the Sack Race Vs the Wheelbarrow Race? The two races can’t seem to get along. We do know that Sack Lives Matter, but the Wheelbarrows have a much easier life. They just keep rolling along. My apologies if I’ve stepped out of bounds here, I just couldn’t resist.

Just like ordinary life throughout the multiverse.

My favorite part is that it never ends, because Grace keeps moving the finish line.

Any plan where you lose your hat, iz a bad plan.

rules are rules

I thought they were grouse pincing.
