That's cause we packed them all off to Nauru What do you us on the toads, Ali? 5 iron? Sounds like Glatt had a fine childhood. Ever take on a giant bull-ant nest with home-made flamethrowers? Dana, your mum is cool. And she brought tea and sandwiches.

We usually use any old thing. Cricket wickets for the short kids. Old bats for the bigger ones. Golf clubs...even putters are ok.

I knew a bloke who used an air pistol. He found that direct shots would deflect off their backs, but if he hit the ground just in front of them, the ricochet would strike under their chins and flip them over backwards.
This is of course cruel and callous. We are supposed to catch them, put them in a suitable container, and then place them in the fridge and then the freezer, thus causing a painless death. And then when you belt them with a golf club, they explode.

When we were kids, some of the boys used to copper wire two toads together by the legs and throw them over the power lines.
The parents weren't impressed, but the boys thought they were pretty clever.

What happened? If the wire only touches one power line, the toads would be safe from electrocution (bird-on-a-wire effect) but die a slow death of thirst and starvation. If the wire touches two power lines the current will flow across the wire, leaving the toads untouched.
Pretty clever my foot. No grasp of physics. Could also black out your own house and melt your ice-cream.

Well, whichever way it went, they became an eyesore, and a nosesore too.
There's nothing worse than the stink of a rotting toad.

After the commercial, we'll be talking with parents, educators, and licensed counselors to discuss the seemingly harmless Magic 8 Ball.
Magic 8 Ball: innocent fun or a portal to the devil? Next on Dr Phil.
