Broom Hilda by Russell Myers for April 11, 2024

It’s been old news for centuries.

Think of something that can earn you the wrath of everyone!!!!

Or else he has, but just doesn’t want to get zapped.

Does she really want to hear rumors about herself?

Brilliant, the way the scene changes in each panel.

If they’re talking about you they’re talking about someone else.

I was expecting the last panel to be Broomie making an offer, “Well, I’ve got a whole lot to tell you!”

Well DUH!!

In today’s social climate, be thankful to be ignored Broomie.

The only thing worse than people saying bad things about you is them saying nothing at all.

Granted it would be nice to have someone say something nice about you, but, it is still A LOT better of having nothing, than HAVING BAD!

As PT Barnum said, I don’t care what they (or newspapers) say about me as long as they spell my name right. Broomie likes being talked about, good or bad.

She doesn’t mind bad press. It’ll get her fired up and zap-crazy in a heart beat!

Well, if you haven’t heard any of that stuff, make some up. What kind of conversationalist are you?

The rule about rumors is you don’t tell the person the rumor is about.

Then there’s the politics of rumors and borders.
