One Big Happy by Rick Detorie for January 04, 2020

At which point Mom says, “It’s called a sight rhyme, Ruthie.”

Ruthie hasn’t heard of assonant rhyming…

Neither do ‘move’ and ‘love’, but try telling that to Shakespeare.

Now try rhyming orange.

to see the deadpan look on Mom’s face in the final panel!

Detorie knows Yiddish? A be gizint!

Why is it that bough, cough and rough don’t rhyme, but pony and balogna do?

She’s got a point there.

Wicked witches use wicked rhymes.

Language doth y-change.

Ruthie, just substitute “comb” with “broom”… ☺

Jack’s giant is the worst offender: He’s making up words, and he STILL botches the rhyme with “fum”!

Witches aren’t all evil either. And if they were that powerful no one could stop them, See Bewitched on that.

Been there
