That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for November 19, 2021

“So, how is this going to work?”

He remembered this mermaid’s depiction, / so he willingly suffered the friction. / Crawling nude through hot sands, / he reached out with both hands, / begging, “Please quench my Starbucks addiction.”

This is going to be one of those IKEA moments – peg A doesn’t fit into slot B, and where the heck is spot G?

She looks good from the waist up, but she’s a cold fish below the belt

Even though Carl has some rather unnatural desires, he couldn’t do anything about them because his **** was stuck in a hole in the rock.

Sand in the privates, abrasions, sunburn on the ass – what some guys are willing to put up with to get a little tail

Preview of Ariel’s Onlyfans page!

Ugh, she has scaly legs!

“t’was ever thus” – Anonymous

Look carefully at that fine fishy frail

for she has not one expected fishy tail

but two long limbs that like a pair of eels flail.

And his mouth, oh it makes her want to wail!

They barely had anything in common.

Help! I fallen and I can’t get it up.

madison says, a bit awkwardly, so, how ’bout those knicks…?

“It’ll work. You’re a mermaid and I’m a manatee.”

Wanda meeting Waldo…

“I must go down to the sea again..” Whenever I’m feeling randy/ I go to the beach to meet Sandy/ where I crawl on the sands/ on my knees and my hands/ to my ichthyologic eye candy)/// And there, where the land meets the sea/ we try, she and I (I and she ?)/ once again to complete/ the phenomenal feat/ though we both know it never can be../// I shall try, again and again/ (though she’s more of a “five” than a “ten”)/to get through the scales/and compete with the whales – and the wiles of those sneaky mermen.

Franz must have had a special bit of wall for this shape of painting. Maybe over his bedroom door?

They’ve more in common than it seems. She has fishy appendages and he’s from a land east of Scandinavia. So they’re both Fin-nish.

I need you! I don’t even care that you have crabs.

She ain’t ’alf cut up about it.

[GRRROOOAAANNN!!!]

" I’m envious, " thought Miriam. " This guy’s got a really nice lookin’ tail "

“Her hair is green as sea-weed / Her lips are blue and pale. / I’ll tell you now before you start, / You can love that girl with all your heart, / But you’ll only love the upper part; / You will NOT like the tail!” – Shel Silverstein

“HELP! MY DAGGER BOARD IS STUCK IN THE SAND!”

Arthur Curry’s parents?

Both were hoping he’d fertilize her eggs, but they had rather different notions of how that’d happen.

“But I don’t know how to dance! Can you teach me?”

I have added a comment there (awaiting Mr. Melcher’s approval) pointing to the artist info I used to point to here. So far, 6 works, by this artist, have been used here (7 times, including one repeat).

has the prior (the here links in my blog entry comment point to the artist info URLs in my comment there, plus a couple more).

And he found exactly what he was looking for…….

“Move along, sailor. There’s nothing to sea here.”

“But baby, I luuuuv you!”

“You love the ‘maid’ not the mer-.

We could never get there.

The smell’s, yes, familiar,

and torso’s half-similar

but, believe me, I ain’t your ‘her.’ "

“Then can I at least feel your boobs?”

“Do I look like one of your rubes?

“I give you a grab,

“you’ll end up with crabs

“and bitch about my lack of pubes.”

Help me. A crab has gotten ahold of my junk.

Thats all I wanted!

Niles went fishing yesterday and figured, if he was nude the fish would think of him as " one of their own". she was naked anyway so all well.

When he saw that delectable dish / He cared nothing that she was part fish. / For her, he needs adjusting; / His legs are disgusting! / “You call these a tail? Don’t you wish!”

“You’re obviously not going to reply, but would it kill you to give me a ‘like’???”

I really felt bad about not inviting you to the party Mara; but all they wanted to do was play the hokey-pokey and naked twister!

Mara: To get to know you better … what are your long term goals?

Him: Well … I want to eventually sit in a chair and yell at the kids “Get off my beach!”.

“Here’s the funny part, I’m stuck in the blowhole of Moby Dick.”

“How YOU doin’ ?”

“What’s a nice girl like you doing in a place like this ?”

On second thought, “Girl being rescued from oil spill.”

You wonder what mermaids eat/ to remain so svelt and petite ?/ It’s a low-crab diet/ (you really must try it !)/ – all seafood – not a morsel of meat !

“Wake up, Little Sushi, wake up !”

I have now enlarged the painting to the extent that I can see the facial expression of the mermaid. It is somewhere between astonishment and alarm. The correct caption for this painting is “Oy gevalt- this is what lives on dry land ? Back to the sea I’m going, already !”
