What's up, Doc?

You know, we haven't checked in with our good friend Broom Hilda lately. Shall we see what she's up to?

Oh, dear. It seems as though she's having to see a doctor. Let's hope that this is just a check up of some sort. Oh, the patient's gown! That's a great source of humor (and it's soooo original, too). Let's see, when do you suppose anyone's ever made a joke about those gowns? How about yesterday? In Broom Hilda, no less:

Of course, these are two completely different jokes: in bottom strip, the joke is about how bad those gowns are -- they are just like wearing all your clothes backwards! HA HA! Imagine that doc with his coat on backwards! HA HA HA!

But in the top strip, the joke's on Broom Hilda! The punchline is that the gown isn't a problem for her, but for the people who are forced to see her ass. Which I guess is true, but I am sure there are a lot of ugly people with gross rears, and I think they still have a legitimate gripe about those gowns. This doctor has a TERRIBLE bedside manner! And as far as ugly asses go, well, let's just say I'm not too keen on seeing him in a gown, either.

Why does she need to see a doctor anyway? Isn't she a witch? Can't she come up with some sort of potion or remedy to cure what ails her?

I can't wait to see what happens tomorrow! More gown jokes? Jokes about doctors playing golf? Instruments are too cold (Monday's joke had the nurse turning down the thermostat)? Doctor's handwriting is bad? Boy, the possibilities are endless! Can't wait!

In Broom Hilda's defense, I would be a bit leery, myself, about being half-naked in a doctor's office with a huge window in it. But then again, maybe that's why the doc (apparantly) has covered up all the panes with a coat of black paint.

Em-barassed, indeed. Quite literally so.
