The “Stalk You and Kill You” Part of This Balanced Breakfast

You will never see it coming. Through the tall grass it slithers unseen, unnoticed, silent. But it has seen you, its sensitive tongue flicking your scent from the air, its beady eyes tracking your every move. You feel only a slight sting at first. Then another. Then one after the other, and soon you fallΒ helpless under a barrage of vitamin-fortified oat projectiles. Only then do you see the face of the fiend who beat you: the dreaded Cereal Killer!

Cheerios? Really? You couldn’t have gone with Lucky CHARMS?

That was the worst pun in this site’s hisstory, John B.

    Also a pun from a beloved detective show. Great work, Mike!

    I wanna know what kitty in the background is up to…accomplice or a member of the BAU (Breakfast Analysis Unit) on a mission to take out the unsub?

    What an adorable and talented danger noodle! And what an unusually non-interfering cat.

      Ha ha ha ha ha, Danger Noodle!

      • fkaWaldenPond January 11, 2017 / 3:37 pm

        I love Danger Noodle too; wasn’t that from the same site where Hamster Dog came from? I think there were some other great ones as well. πŸ˜€

          Yes. Don’t get me started. I have work to do.

      Who remembers “Nick Danger, Third Eye”?

        • Murray C. January 11, 2017 / 7:48 pm

          Agreed. I happened to hear it for the first time lying on the living room floor of a friend’s house in Marin County in an “altered state” y’ might say, with 5 kittens crawling all over me. Bliss.

            You know, it makes so much sense that Mike and some of the other people here would be Firesign Theater fans. My dad has a few of those albums. We listened to them once; I didn’t quite get the humor, and dad said the “altered state” bit made a real difference.

            • Not That Mike The Other Mike January 12, 2017 / 8:16 am

              Interestingly, I didn’t appreciate Firesign until about a few years ago. I knew about them in the 70’s because some friends played one of their records for me, but I guess I didn’t quite catch on.

              While there is some truth in what you say, one needn’t be high to listen to the FT – I only had that one experience – it helps to have some sense of the world of radio when one had to imagine everything. The zaniness was certainly fueled by a certain amount of substances!?

    Too cute to STRIKE any fear into anyone.

  6. Gigi the cat lady January 11, 2017 / 2:20 pm

    See the cat in the background I would put an impending doom tag on that post!

    • Smartypants January 11, 2017 / 5:44 pm

      Yes, he’s an IN-Danger Noodle! πŸ˜€

    So that’s what a rattlesnake’s rattle is really made of!

  8. Birdcage January 11, 2017 / 2:34 pm

    Are those cheerios glued together? Hmm? Some peanut butter, perhaps?

    • Murray C. January 11, 2017 / 2:36 pm

      I figured the snake is wearing a little cap with a long stick. And I think those are tiny bagels. You remember the song, “Tiny Bagels”.

      • Juno January 11, 2017 / 3:27 pm

        Sure!

        “Tiny bagels
        Served with lox
        Make me happy
        Like Maru in a box”

        • Murray C. January 12, 2017 / 12:36 am

          I just love how people here just run with stuff – good goin’,Juno. I knew there was something there but couldn’t come up with it.

          • Juno January 12, 2017 / 11:03 am

            Glad you liked it–but I had “Tiny Bubbles” stuck in my head the rest of the day! πŸ˜‰

            • Murray C. January 12, 2017 / 1:05 pm

              Aaaaarrrrggggghhhhhhhhh!

    • murkle46 January 11, 2017 / 6:40 pm

      They do look glued,and glued to his head?

    I sure wouldn’t trust that snake anywhere near the cat!! WHAT??? Next meal waiting in the background. WOW!!

  12. Faye January 11, 2017 / 7:27 pm

    Cat obviously doesn’t know about the snake who tried to eat an entire crocodile.
