Buttering Up
The art of buttering up someone can be difficult to learn.
Our new artist friend Doron thought that Fraz needed his own airline so he gave him Frazline! The best airline in the world. You can read the story behind it all on Doron’s Wombania post on his art blog.
Oh dear and I thought buttering Chris up would have worked. Maybe you spread it a little too thin?
Maybe. Chris doesn’t seem to like anything I do!
He could have been friendlier Fraz, after all we have to put up with his stinky cologne often enough 🙁 Hopefully you will get your new game soon, but buttering Chris up was a bad idea.
Maybe chocolate would’ve worked better. It’s hard to tell with humans, though.
Is Chris Human? I didn’t know that 🙂
Well he’s not a Wombie that’s for sure!
Wow Loon I need to get here
a bit quicker next time 🙂 xxxx
Poor Frazz, I think you could have layed it on him too thick.
I don’t know! Loon said maybe it was too thin!
Take some off, it that don’t work, go spear on another stick or two of butter. If neither work….run!
I think I’d better run cause Chris is pretty mad!
Well run to me….I got milkshakes!
They’re always go to run to!
He is as mad as a hatter I think 🙂 lol
And he doesn’t even wear a hat!
Yes and that’s even worse 🙂 lol
Yeah he can’t blame his hat for that!
At least she didn’t tell you to kiss his… well you get the point.
Man, Chris must be difficult to live with. He won’t give a million dollars or a video game.
Chris is! Maybe I could adopt myself out to a good home.
Wait, do you get free food? If you get free food, then you may want to stay put.
Yeah but I think I might get more toys and goodies somewhere else.
The grass is usually never greener on the other side.
For example, when you’re an adult you get to eat all the chocolate you’re budget will allow, which is probably a lot. But you have to work 40-50 hours a week to get that chocolate.
Well if I get elected president I won’t have to work! And I’ll give everyone free chocolate! All they want! You should vote for me.
Who knew buttering up could get you into so much trouble? hahaha
I shoulda saved the butter for my popcorn.
Bwahahahahahahahaha. Wrong kind of buttering up. This method does not have the right effect. I love this.
Have a fabulous day. 🙂
It didn’t seem to work on Chris.
OH dear, far too literal a take on buttering up, Fraz, laying it on too thick mayhap? 😉 at least you didn’t follow up with Jam !! Hope you finally get your new video game. xPenx
People should say what they mean! And I didn’t get my video game yet.
awww, never mind Fraz, keep looking down in the mouth an’ Chris might have a change of heart. xxx
My sad face doesn’t seem to work with him anymore!
Butter Up!!
I did! Chris didn’t like it.
I wonder what it takes to get Chris into the programme, doesn’t he realise that Wombies rule the roost? 🙂
We let him think he does because it’s a lot easier that way.
I think Fraz over-did it when he unwrapped the fifth stick of butter :OP
I thought the more the better!
Now just add the eggs, sugar and flour for a big Wombie cake!
I think it might be hard to get Chris in the oven though!
Buttering up is the only way to go.
Not according to Chris!
Fraz, you were supposed to use margarine!
You think that’ll work better?
You could have also tried Peanut Butter. 🙂
OK I’ll try that next time!
Maybe he prefers apple butter, Fraz.
I’ll try that too! One of those should work!
Wouldn’t it be cool if there was wine gum butter?
That would be the best! Maybe I can get Twink to make that!
Haha. Good one.
Thanks, Mike.
Well, he tried to butter him up and it didn’t work… What else can you do?
Try baking him?
Really? He needs to learn about idioms.

Chris is always saying there’s lots of idioms around. Especially in politics.
I really like that watercolor Doron did of Fraz!
So do I! Fraz was pretty pleased with it as well.
Yes I like it too Deb 🙂 xxxx
Buttering Chris up didn’t go down too well but at least you have all of our support, after all he is a stick in the mud sometimes 🙁
Maybe I should have tried covering him in mud.
Or trying out the stick somewhere else? 🙂
I don’t think he’d like that!
Should have just gone all in and gotten giant slices of bread.
You mean like a big Chris sandwich?
As students we were good at the art of buttering teachers. Fraz the mantra is to be subtle about it 🙂
So I should butter up my teacher with subtle mantra? I’ll see if I can find that in the store.
ha ha it should work on Fraz tool 🙂
It will work on Chris too 🙂
I don’t think I need it, but Chris does!
I love buttering up. Just did it this morning in fact. On my raisin bagel.
Nice to see you are still going strong here! I decided over a year ago that I would only write about things that I thought were being ignored online. The internet has changed dramatically since I started posting in 2006. Back then if I got worked up about an issue I would look online and find almost nothing about it so would rant myself about it just to get the issue noticed. Now when I research something that catches my attention I find so much online already that I usually don’t see the point in adding to the noise. A bit frustrating but it does leave me more time for hiking, geocaching, gardening, cooking and the other things I also like to do.
Good to hear from you, Will. It’s been a long time! Yes, the internet has certainly changed a lot, and of course will continue to do so. There is just so much out there now. Hiking, geocaching, gardening, and cooking don’t sound like you have it too bad!
Welcome back in Wombania
Will, long time no see…
Maybe Chris prefers margarine or peanut butter
I tried spreading a few different things on Chris but he didn’t like any of them! Chris is really hard to please.
We need a cunning plan next time Fraz 🙂
Yeah but I’m not sure what though. Humans are hard to figure out.
Look on the bright side – at least Fraz did not grab the peanut butter first – the squirrels would not leave me alone for a week! W.C.C.
I like squirrels! That sounds like fun. Maybe I should spread some peanut butter on me!
Weird. Maybe Chris prefers margarine.
He didn’t seem to when I tried that. He also didn’t like peanut butter or jam or nutella or anything!
Aww…Fraz. ..it’s lucky she didn’t tell you to spread butter AND jam! LOL. That’s what we say over here..or to make it totally Asian we say..put some extra salt and masala! That would have definitely warranted an extra week of grounding..hehe
I dunno what masala is but maybe I should try that with the salt on Chris.
ha!! Humans and their funny expression or term. Just say what they mean without confusing phrases
I think humans like to confuse us!
Doctors say, that fat can kill… so be aware of butter! 😉
Chris can probably kill too when he’s mad enough!
