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!

How does Jesus make his coffee? Hebrews it.

Just kidding, Jesus was over a millenium too early to see the invention of coffee.

I never noticed the leaning tower of pisa looks like a great big cheese grater

How did you think they invented pizza? They dont want you to know that the leaning tower of pizza isnt a joke. All the images online. FAKE. They dont allow outsiders near the massive cheese grater that they once used to make the worlds largest pizza in secret. A strategic advantage no other country has attained in the world stage when it comes to pizza.
