Symphonic Silliness

Time to raise the tone of this blog!










Can you guess what this next visual pun is?


"The Flight of the Bumblebee" of course!

I'll show myself out.

I don’t know how you do this blog thing day after day. I barely find the time to READ the various blogs I like. Which is why my own blog has deteriorated so much. More power to you.

Marie Smith said...

lol. Thanks for the chuckles, Debra. I so needed them!

Debra She Who Seeks said...

@ Frank -- We always find time for what we enjoy and I truly enjoy blogging. It also helps that I ah retired and have no responsibility for kids or grandkids. That frees up a big chunk of time to fart around in the blogosphere!

Tundra Bunny said...

Wolfgang Llamadeus Mozart -- AHAHAHAHA!

Bob said...

I cannot pick a favorite though the urinals is up there!

Travel said...

I love them all. Thank you!

Old Lurker said...

No, the visual pun is Tchaikovsky's "Romeo and Juliet (Mantissy Overture in Bee Hat)"

Boud said...

Great stuff, especially the unfinished Symphony.

Kirk said...

I just didn't get that last one because instead of seeing a bee, I saw stereotypical pimp clothes, and I focused much too much on the fellow insect passenger, which I thought was perhaps a praying mantis. So I'm sitting here pondering to myself, "Mantispimp...is there some classical composer named Mantispimp?"

Leanna said...

~Groan~ Besides the puns, these were pretty good.

BootsandBraids said...

I'm disappointed in myself that I didn't guess that last one. Had to read the answer. So obvious. Dang!

Sixpence Notthewiser said...

Oh.My.Goddess!
I'm still cackling.
TBH, the flight of the bumblebee caught me unawares!
And that unfinished symphony? Probably true. Cannot trust kitties!

XOXO

Tasker Dunham said...

I almost widdled myself at the Beethoven's 5th urinals.

Moving with Mitchell said...

Groan. And don't let the door hit your butt on the way.

Mike said...

Groan! Several times. And don't leave. Stick around so we can pick on you!

Tchaikovsky knew how to make things BIG! The park across from my sisters' house has a 4th of July concert every year. They do the 1812 Overture and they have... CANNONS!

This N That said...

These are great!! Bock, Bock , Bock to you..

angela said...

roentare said...

This is such a classic music themed post

Kay G. said...

Why didn't Mozart like chickens?
Because they always said "Bach, Bach, Bach"!

Laura said...

Richard said...

You go Tchaikovsky! Let's take a minute to honor Bugs Bunny, as well.

The Blog Fodder said...

These are the best. Stealing some

Old Lurker said...

No, I screwed that up. The real pun is Tchaikovsky's "Roam Me Low, on a Jet" (Mantissy Overture in Bee Hat)"

River said...

Flight of The Bumblebee is one of my favourite pieces yet I didn't guess it!

Liz Hinds said...

I wouldn't dare suggest to Beethooven that he might like to roll over.

Cloudia said...

Thank you for this very fun post! Aloha!

Guillaume said...

All great ones. Especially the Mozart jokes, Wolferl would have approved.

Richard said...

Those insects. Probably I would try to speak Spanish at first. Everyone knows a little Spanish. If we got comfortable, I would ask them- what about Franz Kafka? What was that story about? Was it a metaphysical problem, or was it a hangover?
I am telling you, dear companions, that I never understood that story.

Sometimes you don't get to choose who you sit with.

Richard said...

Good grief, Tasker Dunham, if you are going to widdle yourself please do it on the linoleum for easier clean up.

peppylady (Dora) said...

Cute!!!
Coffee is on.

Adam said...

I'll be bach

e said...

Ha ha! Yes, that *did* raise the tone! Or something.

I didn't guess Flight of the Bumblebee... too distracted by the praying mantis!

Cheers~

Alison said...

Oh thank God! I thought for a minute you were serious about raising the tone.

Busy Bee Suz said...

The Flight Of The Bumblebee!! 😜😳 BOCKBOCKBOCK!
