So even in 1940 "Bertha" was a fat lady name. Yet that couldn't always have been true, because plenty of actual women have been named Bertha and nobody looks at their brand new little baby and says, "I dub thee Fatass." I wonder when that started.


Wikipedia entry on Bertha posted:

Bertha is a female Germanic name, from Old High German berhta meaning "bright one".

[snip]

In modern times, the name is associated with machines that are abnormally large, and many large machines are nicknamed Bertha. This is largely because of the World-War I howitzer known as Big Bertha.

That makes a ton of sense, actually. :ms:

I guess I should be happy that we didn't get the Gay Panic scene I was expecting. And I am. I am happy. That would have been a truly awful way for any strip to end the year. So, good. I'm really really glad they didn't go there.

and also kind of disappointed, since Luann is my #1 hate read. i might not be a good person...

Sometimes Ted and I are one of a kind. On the occasions when I have a Lucky Charms-like cereal, I always eat all the cereal pieces first to get them out of the way, then I eat all the marshmallows. It's never even close to as good as I expected and it always makes my teeth hurt. Every time. I know this. But hand me a bowl of marshmallow cereal right now and see what happens.

No milk, please.

What I'm amused by is 1940 standards of fat. The average person nowadays would literally be a circus freak. Speaking of a look into the far past through ancient comics, get ready for a Pokemon GO reference in HCC today!

Hell, the blouse and the skirt are separates. Even if the kids are in a big huge hurry, it would have taken two seconds to run back inside and throw on some jeans. Put your sneakers on in the car.

That's assuming that anybody in the Worthiverse over 30 owns a pair of jeans.
