Great Green Groans


Funnily enough, my Inner Zombie likes jokes and the colour green. That said, even he turned his nose up at these. Shortly afterwards, it fell off.

I must warn you, there may be one further post such as this before the stroke of midnight on Halloween. With the emphasis on the may. It may also be funny.

    Reminds me of this public domain song I used to sing as a kid:

    “Great green globs of greasy, grimy gopher guts,
    Mutilated monkey meat.
    Dirty little birdie feet.
    Great green globs of greasy, grimy gopher guts,
    And me without my spoon.”

      Sounds fun, CM. (It was fun, yes?)
      When I read public domain, for some reason public information registered with me… and I couldn’t work out just what the song would actually be used for… I like the last line, however. Very abstract!

        Yeah, it’s a fun song. I used it to remind myself how lucky I was that I did NOT have a spoon in certain situations. 😉

          There definitely are some things you wouldn’t want a spoon for, CM!

    What did the vampire say when the zombie invited him to have a little bite?
    ‘Fangs very mush!’

    Love the variety and use of the bogey greens! Very seasonal and atmospheric 🙂 The design of this page is great….but all this seasonability seems to have brought the wilds of October’s worst our way! It’s freezing! And cold! And windy and wet and I’m supposed to be enjoying a weeks holiday and here I am shivering indoors on a cold icy October night!! Terrible! lol 😉

      Ah… sorry about that, Icewolf. I’m now replying, what seems like months later, and it feels like the height of Summer again. The seasons do seem to be a little …erm… mixed up, don’t they? Glad you like the greens… I thought they’d be more Halloweeny, for some reason.
