Ummm.....
The Herman one and the last one aren't Far Side..... Otherwise, you're right on! Far Side NEVER gets old! |
|
LOL.
Ever see the one titled "Nature's way of saying 'Don't Touch?'" |
|
yeah i noticed that too after the fact. still funny though. Does anyone have the one with the elephant with the missing leg talking on the phone asking: "they made a WASTE BASKET out of it?!?!?!?" That one is my all-time favorite! |
|
|
Anybody have the one where aliens go flying overhead of a bunch of people?
It's captioned WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE |
|
In the operating room:
"SPROINGGGGGGG!!!!" (Some organ flying out of the patient) Doctor: "Somebody watch where that thing lands. We may need it..." The guy was simply awesome! |
|
You know that was a mistake right? |
|
|
Nah, never heard that. Spill the beans. |

I got the Complete Far Side Leather Bound set so you could say I like them a little!

The caption was mixed up with another cartoon. But boh captions seemed to work better after the moxup so he left it....I will try to find it online. I read about in a farside book. The Prehistory Of The Far Side |

After Gary Larson and Bill Watterson retired, I lost all interest in comic strips.

|
The alternative waterskiiing one made me laugh out loud. Good humor! |

I like the ones where aliens have a blue and green splotch on their windshield with the shapes of the continents in it and one says to the other "oh gross".

I got to meet him once -- he was doing a book signing and I got a copy of one of his books signed. He seemed like a nice guy.

My favorite is the hound leading the Sheriff's posse with everyone with their shotguns, etc, and the dog thinking "I can't smell a damned thing!"
|
|
Farside rocks. Right up there with Bloom County. Part of the reason why I'm warped. One of my favorites is the "Boneless Chicken Ranch" and "Trouble Brewing"!
|
|
I have one of his books that has incomplete ideas, things that he didn't think went right, etc.
One of them was the grim reaper as a child (skeleton) and he was playing with little tombstones in the sandbox. He stated the original had him running after someone with a pair of scissors but it didn't feel right to him and he could never figure out why. I wrote to him and asked if it was possibly because our parents imbedded in us that you should never run with scissors? Never heard back tho.... ah well. |
|
You know there are several trouble brewing pics right? I think there is three, all great. |

"The Bluebird of Happiness long absent from his life, Ned is visited by the Chicken of Depression"
NTM |
|
Yeah and the Dingo ranch right next to the Day Care. |
||
|
That's the one I had in mind, the Dingo next to the day care. |
|||
|
Oh man, I love that one and Larson caught a shitload of flack from it. Funny though! |
|
|
Yes he did!! That one and tethercat! |

OK, anyone got one of my favorites?
...small plane having flown low over a pond has a frog stuck by it's tongue to the belly of the plane like he tried to catch a bug. |
|
Ayup.. but not on the puter |
|
|
Love the one of the guy in Hell facing two doors, with Satan jabbing him in the back with a pitchfork. Satan is saying:"C'mon, c'mon...it's one or the other!" The doors are labelled Damned if you do and Damned if you don't
|

There's one with a dog in the back seat of a car, leaning out the window talking to another dog, "Hey, Rusty! I'm gonna go get SPRAYED!"
Another one with some cows in a pasture standing up and smoking, and another cow looking down the road yells, "Car!" |
|
In addition to the "What Dogs Hear" there's a "What Cats Hear" which is absolutely NOTHING.
One of my all time favorites was a guy sitting in a pasture with a shotgun. "Misunderstanding his father's dying works, Bob spent some years guarding the family mules". Then there was the cavalry charge with an accordion. "Dammit Hughes, I told you to get that cursed bugle fixed" The man sitting on the doctor's table with a gun in his hand. The ENTIRE office and everything in it is full of bullet holes. The Doctor: "I think it's an itchy trigger finger, but I need to do some tests". A gunman asking a body what the square root of 295 is. A by-stander: "Jackson, you can't shoot first and ask questions later". A man is looking inside of his refrigerator were a jar is holding a gun on the ketchup and mustard and taking their money. "When mayo goes bad". A gunfighter has just been shot down by a sloth: "Boy, Frank really was slow on the draw". A bar totally destroyed, bodies scattered around. The barmaid is talking to the police: "Then this little sailer dude pulls out this can of spinach, this music starts playing and.....well just LOOK at this place". A long line of Vikings advance on a castle. They're all carrying briefcases. "Oh my God, it's Vikings......and they mean BUSINESS". |

Another one he got a lot of flak on was a picture of a pet store, with a piranha in a fishbowl in the background and a cat with two wooden front legs in the foreground. One of my absolute favorites. Another is a Mexican riding a horse with really short legs and a caption that reads: Circa 1888... Juan rides into town on his low rider (or something similar). |

There is also one of a poodle grooming shop next to a falconers training place. |
