Roger=Broom

Now I have been here for a time but not that long. What I would like to know is why Dorothy make a broom look like Roger. It is probably something that is easy to spot and I just missed it but would anyone like to explain this to me please.

It started in the Funny Pics thread as a joke by Chibi Dorothy, then got turned into a HUGE running gag all over the boards.

The story was simple - Dorothy has a huge crush on Roger, but he won't give her the time of day, so she makes a 'dummy' of him, mainly to practice kissing techniques (as The Big Omega pointed out in one of his posts in the 'Big O Blooper Special' thread at the Nightingale forum).

It's a lot funnier than it sounds and it's only meant as a joke.

Hope this clears up some of the myth.

Yeah go back and read the Funny pic thread, It's REALLY funny. I make jokes about it to my friends but they look at me like I'm crazy. Sweatdrop

Oh, yes, Zola posted a pic of a REAL broom dressed in Roger's suit! I think it's also in the Funny Pic thread as well.

Yep.

These are well worth seeing, so I took a couple of minutes to find them for you. Smile

Where it all began...

Act 18 ½: The Roger Suit Project

A "real" Roger Broom from Zola

More Roger-Broom art

If you continue on in the funny pictures thread, you will then see an angel mop and a vera bucket, and I believe that Chibi Dorothy did another pic or two... Smile

Yes, if you start from the page that has the real broom pics and go on a bit further in the thread, there are some really funny ones just a little past. Smile


Thanks for the compliment, Schattenjager!

Falcon7 thought I was nuts, and now he's drawing cast members in boxers, LOL! Wink

OK thanks, that is why I had the question, I saw it back in the funny pics a while a go but I just wanted to make sure if it was something that happened before I got here.

Thanks Zola for the links (as I only new about the one picture). Whatever happened to Act 18 2/3? I want to see that.

Like one of Dorothy clutching a broom and staring at it wild-eyed saying something like
"ALRIGHT!! I GOT YOU RIGHT WHERE I WANT YOU Evil "

x_@;;;

Broom Roger is such a Pimp, I swear. i mean, geez, even though he's constantly giving his admirers the brush off and has a totally wooden personality, he still cleans up with the ladies. Big Grin
YZEtc 11-21-2003 10:42 AM
Even though he's a bit of a stiff...
Lady Tesser 11-21-2003 06:14 PM
He just whisked Dorothy right off her feet ...
Zola 11-21-2003 06:18 PM
Yeah, nothing like making a clean sweep of it.
Big Money 11-21-2003 06:31 PM

18 2/3 goes, slowly, but it goes. Work has been insane lately, so I really haven't had the time to do sequential art. The dangers of working retail during the holidays. Roll Eyes Also I really loved Chibi Dorothy's Broom Alan and I was trying to find a way to shoe horn him into the story.

I was going to make Zola a mini-broom, but the hobby shop only had mops in the doll house section. Maybe I can make one the next time sculpey goes on sale.
pen1300 11-22-2003 06:35 AM
LOL, yeah, I just told my mom yesterday I need to get to the craft store and buy a mini broom and make my own Roger Broom to go with Dorothy and Roger above my comp. LOL. She thinks its pitiful. LOL.

Yeah! Can't wait for that act!

I dunno if there were more pics. Probably running jokes floating ALL over the Fanworks forum.

Jokes all over the fanfics, yes.

References to Roger Broom, Dorothy Lamp. The Big Omega sent me a scene of the cross between canon and Reciprocal Paradigm of Dorothy in the closet with her Roger Broom and Dorian joining her with his Roxanne Mop (it was cute, nothing bad at all).

We're sick and pathetic, but it's funny!
