Living in an enchanted forest with surrealistic landscapes, the engaging characters of Broom Hilda happily have no connection with reality. Other comic characters are extensions or distortions of reality, but Broom Hilda deals in pure fantasy, making the strip bewitchingly unique. Here in the forest, the inhabitants maintain a standard of madness where total irrelevance is the only relevancy. The strip is simply a loony-bin where what’s said and done often makes no sense whatsoever, much to the joy of its millions of fans.

That’s some serious laughing.
Good morning, LB.

A blonde attended her university final mathematics examinations.
The professor had set up the exam in a somewhat different manner. The questions were written in the traditional manner, however to save himself time during the marking, he supplied an answer which was either correct or incorrect. The incorrect answers were not obvious.
The students would then have to work through the problem, decide if the supplied answer was right or wrong, and tick one of two boxes on an answer sheet marked “correct” or “incorrect.”
Well, the blonde stared at the paper for the first ten minutes and wrote nothing and ticked nothing. The professor noticed, and wondered if she would answer any questions at all. He kept an eye on her.
Suddenly there was a flurry of activity. The blonde reached into her purse, drew out a coin and commenced to flip it. After the end of every flip she would tick a box on the answer sheet.
Naturally she finished the exam with lots of time to spare and started buffing her fingernails. She did this until about ten minutes before the allotted time for the examination expired, suddenly gasped, grabbed the coin and the answer sheet and started flipping the coin again in a frantic manner with a panicked look on her face. Time was called, and the blonde sagged in apparent despair.
The professor had again noted her actions and when the blonde turned in her sheet, still looking unhappy, he asked what she was so unhappy about.
The blonde said “Well I got through the exam so quickly that I completely forgot to check my answers until the last minute. I still hadn’t finished when you called ‘Time!’”

She probably was reading her strip.
MARG! Have you ever gone on a sea cruise? There’s
over 4000 people right now in the Gulf of Mexico that
wish they hadn’t.

With laughing that hard, she must have halitosis.

Broomie’s laughter seems a bit forced to me. Such explosive har hars are unlike the more expansive guffaws that I hear most often.

I thought that a blowout was something that happens to a car tire or it’s a reference to a party. So it seems there’s yet another definition to add to the already all too confusing language of the Yanks. Well at least there’s to be glad of one thing here: As Prof. Higgins indicated,They haven’t spoken English here in Years.

Hmm… getting a bit meta-referential here, are we? Comics about funny comics?
