@checkervest
Thank you for the giggle, was not expecting him to feature again; still have no grasp of his...anything.

there might be owls

@wordsmith I was scrolling back through my media posts looking for something else and spotted him! I love him

dragfyre

@checkervest That's a medieval Rowan Atkinson if I've ever seen one

Ricardo :heart_cybre:🐈

@checkervest not sure if he's swallowing or vomiting the frog

I choose to assume it's the former to fit the "swallow a frog" idiom (for doing something unpleasant) and because it makes it funnier to me 😁

also, just learned that "swallowing a frog" is an idiom in more than one language, so that's cool

there might be owls

@meqif oh I've never heard that before, I like that!

Ricardo :heart_cybre:🐈

@checkervest apparently there's a quote about swallowing a frog in the morning that's misattributed to Mark Twain but it looks like, ultimately, it was some other guy as usual haha

@Bella @checkervest that's so good! 🀣

I keep coming back to this image and asking "friend, why are you having a fish with your coffee instead of a pastry?"

Jim

@checkervest i don't know what's going on here, but i like it.

Jim

@checkervest Like that famous Outhere Bros song

Jim

@checkervest Or Baha men even, I forget my shit 90s pop acts

@checkervest moisturized, unbothered, in my lane, (which was apparently a guy's throat), flourishing

πŸ¦€πŸ¦β‰’

@checkervest well that was certainly a way to get a song in someone's head

who let the frogs out...

Derek

@checkervest I don't know if I ever officially designated this frankly hall-of-fame post as a #CertifiedLaserdiscBanger, but I'm doing it here

Whitney Loblaw

@checkervest
Just wanted to clarify a couple things:

1. The frog is actually a footed fish
2. The footed fish is burped
3. It’s Thursday

@stragu my darling it is delightful how incredibly wrong you are on all counts

Whitney Loblaw

@checkervest how very dare you! I bestow verity gratis and you dispense but slander in return!

there might be owls

I'm only going to stop boosting this when it stops being funny to me, sorry everyone

Bronzed, Aged, Collapsed

@checkervest fills me with joy every time i see it, I'm rooting for that frog

Resting Facebitch

@checkervest Yes.

1 more hour of work then I'm getting my drink on.

Jim

@checkervest Is he eating or expelling, I can't tell and don't know why it is important to me, but it is important I know.

there might be owls

@sullybiker he is expelling a frog! I hope I am able to put your mind at rest here πŸ˜„

Jim

@checkervest Well I guess...I may have questions

Jim

@checkervest Because, Alex, if there are arse-burrowing giant frogs out there I feel I should know

RayG2261

@checkervest Ah, yes… the morning after the Tequila and Frogs party

there might be owls

@RayG2261 sometimes you just have to let your frogs out

Kristoffer Lawson

@checkervest hm, is this the source of the Finnish expression β€˜let a frog out of your mouth’ (saying something inflammatory)

there might be owls

@Setok this drawing is from an illuminated manuscript about the Bible book of Revelations, regarding a false prophet. it really sank into folklore, there are a lot of stories that involve a good person being blessed with diamonds and pearls dropping from their mouths when they speak and a bad person being cursed with frogs and snakes. so I'm pretty sure that there's a good chance the Finnish expression is absolutely connected to the same source!

Jack Lowe

@checkervest Not sure what I love more, the picture or the alt text! πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ˜„

Garrett Murray

@checkervest but I just vomited a creature yesterday can’t I take a single day off smh

Nick

dodothedev :arch_linux:

@checkervest

@sirber
Why is Rowan Atkinson throwing up a goldfish with hands? It's disturbing, yet I can't look away!

SΓΆren

@checkervest I feel like this has the β€œwhat? …why?? …what?” energy a lot of early TNG had

there might be owls

@chucker I love medieval manuscript art for this, you never know what people are going to draw. at least this one is based on a bible verse and isn't just people jousting on snails

Star Cat Books

@checkervest Sounds about right.

This is the day my Fedex guy left a photo of the delivery of my new ipad. It was a dick pick.

@checkervest medieval mr bean had a frog in his throat...which explains why he no longer speaks?

Tony Wells
