I assume the term ‘worry wart’ is some american colloquialism – I have never heard it used on this side of the Pond.

Worrywarthog is not the cheeriest of holiday season companions. He might even drive you to acts that you might later regret….

Why blame the warthog? He got all of his information from the media.

The only way to counteract the WorryWartHog character is with the Bobby McFerret character.“Don’t worry, be happy”!!!

WWH has potential, Eeyore-ish but not endearing. Like Rat, but pathetic.

Thanks for the link, gopher gofer. Makes sense that it was Out Our Way, a family favourite comic strip, although our use of the term always meant one who worries about everything, rather than one who causes worry.Cheers,Blune.

I wish you would give more space to old characters, such as the Crocs, (after all, they’re the ones who got you where you are) before introducing new guys-

If Worry Warthog meets Rat, he’ll find all sorts of new things to worry about.

That’s why I never go home. If I’m not there, I have a much lower chance of getting hurt.
