If you have not seen movie Eagle Vs. Shark yet you should. There is this part with a little "cartoon" and as soon as I saw it I thought maybe they were ripping you off!

I know I shouldn't have laughed, but it just felt right. RIP peanut guy.

I actually gasped when I realized what happened. Great work, Terry! It's so awful but so wonderful at the same time! ;)

This one got an audible gasp when I saw it. Nicely done.

I never realized before how circus peanuts are frail and unsuited for the circus. Thank you, Terry, for bringing this obviously horrific problem to the public's attention. Your devotion to the subject despite the grave and gruesome circumstances, is quite commendable. I, for one, am deeply moved by your conscientious and considerate expose on this dangerous world of circus peanut circuses.

You are a genius. A certifiable genius. Or at least, certifiable.

I knew I had recognized Horatio from somewhere before..... he's the same peanut that climbed into the box just before the magician cut it in half!

Great work, Terry!

This should be an important lesson on the value of wearing a cup. You gotta protect yer nuts. Even if you are one yourself.

HILARIOUS!

I love the Edward Gorey-esque theme you've got going on with these last few!

The Queen said...

The best yet! Just twisted and of course terribly funny.

I agree, the best one. But the hunting orange is not bad either. Where do you find your inspiration???

Brilliant! The fact that he's still holding on to the pole and it keeps him aloft is pure genius! Therein lies the funny.
