Hello fellow Far Side fans!

About this community and how I post the comic strip… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips and one of those was The Far Side. These days of course you find just about anything online including www.thefarside.com where they post several comics a day and I repost them here. Just to note, the date you see in my posts is not the initial release date, but the date they were posted on the website.

The Far Side is a single-panel comic created by Gary Larson and syndicated by Chronicle Features and then Universal Press Syndicate, which ran from December 31, 1979, to January 1, 1995 (when Larson retired as a cartoonist). Its surrealistic humor is often based on uncomfortable social situations, improbable events, an anthropomorphic view of the world, logical fallacies, impending bizarre disasters, (often twisted) references to proverbs, or the search for meaning in life… Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Far_Side

Hope you enjoy and feel free to contribute to the community with art, cool stuff about the author, tattoos, toys and anything else, as long it’s The Far Side!

Is this a line from Letterkenny? Because it sounds like a line from Letterkenny. They'd all end up doing really bad Australian accents.

Dan - I understands shes actins like shes fightin' fer her lives, but I still thinks Meryls ates more scenery than any dingos could.

Katy - Meryl is beloved BECAUSE she's like a dingo. You don't get to be that beloved as a woman of age in Hollywood without eating the occasional metaphorical baby.

Dary - I just think she could have gone about it a little better. It's like "did a dingo eat your manners?".

Wayne - Come on now, a lady lost her kid. You're about to cross some fuckin' lines.

Rahld - Ster't!!
