    I’ve been shocked how most Everett comics posted thus far still ring true today, over a century later … Good to see some posted that are nonsensical by today’s standards!

    EDIT: I couldn’t help myself and updated the second panel to better track with 2024’s lingo: https://lemmy.world/post/18087572

    • What lol? I thought the original made pretty much perfect sense, except maybe replace ‘fierce’ with ‘fearsome’ since fierce basically means the opposite these days, but the point is that everyone is complimenting her to her face but he’s the only one with the courage to say what they’re all thinking and call her out on her bold style choice. Your version seems a lot more nonsensical, I can’t tell if it’s supposed to be a joke.
