As a part of the continuing (though perhaps decreasingly funny) gag about Twitching Frog Legs, I took the initiative to price some Frog Legs.

Amazon will deliver 8 pairs for what seems like a lot of $$.

8 pairs of Frog's Legs for $44. JEEZUS !


But that's not the problem.

DON'T CLICK ON THE LINK !

Via the magick of 'Cookies' and other web analytics that I don't understand, Amazon is like an aggressive homeless person panhandling, following me EVERYWHERE on the Internet, trying to sell me Fvcking Frog Legs.


SILVER LINING - Amazon is pushing all those obnoxious 'Progressive' Insurance ads off the web page.

oh, it's still funny believe me :D

i was waiting for you to tell me, "Let it go, Dude, let it go."

if i remember correctly, when the Frog Leg Meme/Theme was first introduced to G-S.us, it was upsetting to one of the members.


would it work on Hillary Clinton's legs ?

God, i hope the Secret Service doesn't start following me around.

On the other hand, if they chase away both Amazon's Ads AND Flo the Hyper-Obnoxious insurance saleswoman, it might be worth it. :)
