fuck you for posting this one

I don't understand this one.

Finally, a comic for intellectuals.

...

...

This is the first Far Side I saw in the paper, and I didn't really get it, but something about it was so compelling that I was an instant fan.

I wonder how much of it was just the newness of it. Not that absurdity was new, but you know what I mean. Would it would have been such a big deal if we were seeing it for the first time today?

Most Farside is pretty lame comedy imo, and I own all the Farside books.

But I take the good with the bad for perspective. It's enlightening more than entertaining.

...

I like that in Far Side Hell is just another office job.

Nothing will ever top Luposlipophobia.

>Have a retarded brother named Dougie
Hehehe

This one used to destroy me when I was a kid

I'm pretty sure you're being ironic but I'll explain anyway

It's a joke about how certain apes use tools, like sticks to dig out bugs or sharpened rocks to break open fruits.

Larsen drew some absurd looking tools with no discernable function, because cows could not possibly have any use for tools. That's it.

It wasn't a very funny joke but it's famous because so many people couldn't help but read too much into it and try to figure out what the tools were supposed to be.

DELETE THIS

Didn't he theorize in one of the collections that the saw threw people off? Like, that one has a clear, identifiable function, so the others must, too, but...

This is so Kafka-esque.

...

...

wat

He's threatening the thieves with a dog launchers

For a second I thought it said ATF and the dog was running away.

No meat touching, mam

What did he mean by this?

...

...

...

If you aren't joking kys

This one always kills me

>It's a gun, Frank.
>A gun that shoots knives.

A close second.

I'm dying

...

i remember reading in one of the far side books that accordion players actually got pissed about this one and sent him angry letters

I think I know what it means

Cow pie

Cow tools

The tools are made of shit, thats the joke

...

The "Trouble Brewing" strips were always the funniest imo

...

I think a variant were the 'Tension Mounts' ones with Lewis and Clark.

>mfw the borough of my town was called Midvale
>mfw the g&t teacher thought this was funny shit

I love this shit and I would cum on my own balls to get the complete works.

I don't understand that statement.

He actually retured because weird als mafia connections made him have to go to ground.

What did he mean by this?

But Cowboys aren't made of shit

There's "The Complete Far Side"

oh? who's being naive, Kay?

I like how, even with his limited art style, Gary Larson still had great execution and atmosphere with his jokes. His grizzled old cowboys (like the one in this comic) are great.

There's always a sense of some ongoing story behind his single-panel comics that piques the imagination.
You really appreciate that when you compare The Far Side with one of its crappy imitators like "Pardon My Planet" where the setting doesn't matter and the jokes feel like they're pulled from a really stilted standup routine.

This one is for Cred Forums

>2005 was 20 years ago

He made this cartoon over 30 years ago, and it's still all over the place.

That, folks, is genius.

I love this one.

This still makes me giggle uncontrollably for some reason.

I went to a gifted program when I was in elementary school, and the director of the program had this hanging above his desk.

Considering some of the spazzes that I shared those classes without (myself included), it's hilariously accurate.

2005 still seemed like a long ways away the first time I saw this one.

Thank you for your insight, James

>You will never become so popular that a one-off joke of yours becomes reality

...

I think that's when you know you're not just another guy in the pond, but a big fish in the ocean.

Cred Forums here.
Let's Players have sort of ruined that joke nowadays, but created plenty more.

>The arrangement of spikes originally had no distinct name
>The term was picked up initially by Ken Carpenter, a paleontologist at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science, who used the term when describing a fossil at the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology Annual Meeting in 1993...and is used by the Smithsonian Institution,[9][11] the Dinosaur National Monument in Utah, the book The Complete Dinosaur and the BBC documentary series Planet Dinosaur

>Meat is my life.

kek

wat

Anyone read this?

These comics are so surreal

In scribblenauts I actually made one of these

Leeeeeeeeeeeegions better than that damn Heathcliff.

At school, it's good

I wish he did more stuff like this.

I feel like this one would be improved by removing the caption.

Dook nukem top keks

>"His twenty-three books of collected cartoons have combined sales of more than forty-five million copies"

C'mon Gary, you're pretty rich already.

Oh fuck that's good.

Looks like a play on Heathcliff to me.

>Get the Complete Farside for Christmas when I was 16

>See book has blood on it
>This chick literally menstruated on my Farside gallery
>Brother still hasn't bought me a new one

I miss that book...

You should kill your brother.

You should've joined in.

>I ain't afraid of no Quack

I love that the reader comments are largely as ridiculous as a carton themselves.

I forgot how funny those desperate pleas for enlightenment on the right hand page are

Back in the days when correspondence had to at least pretend to be intelligently written to elicit a response.

...

...

Though-provoking, one of my favourites as a teen. It literally comes to my mind whenver people optimisation comes up as a topic.

...

What's the joke?

That Einstein played basketball.

Aside from probably not being true, I see nothing funny in this suggestion.

Hah!

Why are you acting dense about this. It's funny to picture popular historical figures in odd situations.

God fucking damnit

Fine, but I was expecting something more to it.

I think there are layers.for one thing, it's kind of a parody of other meaningless ''little known facts'', and for another, the drawing of Eistein is funny on its own.

I don't get it.

>tvtropes
kys yourself my man.

Larson was the nostradamus of the time slightly before ours.

People always post cow tools, but never the one of the dog fucking the car.

Never seen this one before, and there's probably a good reason for that.

He just meant to draw the dog howling but the transmission made it look like it was fucking

I remember Gary getting so much flak for this.

That and the Jane Goodall strip

He wrote about this one too.

kek

Yes they are

t. Overwatch player

The college he attends must be in a shoe box.

The only comic that I think compares with the simplicity/big laughs combo is Nedroid. Just these weird, inventive, outright hilarious vignettes.

>the Jane Goodall strip

That was only as assistant or something. He ended up visiting Jane Goodall because she enjoyed the strip.

forgot my image

Got a link?

you monster

shit thats dark

This is level 3 spoop material.

>en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freudian_slip

Perhaps I can interest you in a fart joke instead?

I know, which is why I find it so hilarious Someone getting mad for someone else at a perceived insult when really there was no harm done.

Jane Goodall LOVED it. Her publicist mistakenly assumed she be upset.

...

...

...

...

...

Goodall is a great person. She handled the Harambe fiasco well.

There's a lot of implied violence and death in the comic.

what the fuck.

Yes

Oh yeah. Darkest thing on the comics page until Boondocks.

>Goodall is a great person.

Yes.

>dolphins speak spanish
what did he mean by this?

...

I wonder how many people notice the second duck

it's making fun of that 'motivational' myth about how einstein flunked highschool math, or more specifically, how many people believed it unquestioningly

I'm not seeing it

> second duck

>gains or loses whiskers depending on its mood

I bet he gets along great with the Bag Reaper

what do you guys think about the two Far side animated specials?

Far Side drew insects in ways that terrified me as a kid.

I remember the wolf watching home movies.

please someone dump more. it's been years god i've missed these

Not allowed. Gary Larson will send out his legions of Larsonettes to seek and destroy any digital copies.

how would a Larsonette fair against a Runnie Replace

this is almost as deep as MoS or BvS

I think you really hit the nail on the head. Far Side jokes aren't just weird non-sequitors, they're a brief look into a weird life.

Like this one. In another writer's hands, the joke would just be "The man is trapped on the island but the duck can swim/fly away at any time"

But Gary Larson adds an implied antagonistic history between the human and the duck, to the point where the duck is gloating that THIS TIME he has the upper hand. Which further implies that in their previous encounters, Jenkins has always had the advantage. It adds such a richness to the gag, and that's why The Far Side is so far above the other comics like it.

he did, this thread makes me want to go read some of my Far Side collections again

>Perry vs Doofenshmirtz

How quaint.

...

that looks more like a turtle with the head of a fly than a bee

...

Wish I had the one with the insect dinner party.

>Batman regrets giving a Bat signal to his mother

...

quick edit I made for a Marvel player a while back.

...

...

This needs to be remade with a black man, a shitty pistol on the table, and a run-down apartment complex behind him with the same caption.

>that one time the newspapers accidentally swapped the captions for The Far Side and Family Circus, significantly improving both comics

...

>Family Circus
user...

...

...

oh fuck me, that's Dennis isn't it

His comics strike me in the spot in my brain, where im like "why is my mouth laughing?"

lol

Wrong pic my dude.

I thought that was the shitty American Dennis the Menace? In any case, you are correct.

>the look on his face, transitioning from annoyance to fear
I lived for these strips

Should've been more stereotypical black guy stuff.

...

Fucking hell.

In other news, American Dennis looks like he has Walter the Softie as a dad.

I find these kind of mistakes way funnier than the netflix ones that pass for casual humor.

>Cow tools
>Move a letter around
>Cow stool

I didn't know "Carl" was a personality type

Shit.

You have to understand that a lot of Farside comics were the first time such humor was tried out in paper strips. Some of them don't have quite the same spark anymore because Far Side itself became so influential.

it's amazing how much expressiveness he was able to convey with so little detail

this is one of my favourites

He is more of a menace here than he ever was in the real comic

YOOO

I don't get it

sex?

I remember reading he was really proud of his ability to show the dog's expression. It's a grim situation, but he's still somewhat relieved.

No wonder Larson retired, he never would have slipped.

...

...

It's funny because the skinny guy lost out to the two fat guys, the dog just takes it over the top.

...

...

Fuck me that's good

Ha

They play on expectations and tropes.

>en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thagomizer
>The cartoon fate of Thag Simmons notwithstanding, stegosaurs and humans did not exist in the same era; humans evolved around 60 million years after the event that killed all non-avian dinosaurs. In The Prehistory of the Far Side, Gary Larson suggests that "there should be cartoon confessionals where we could go and say things like, 'Father, I have sinned – I have drawn dinosaurs and hominids together in the same cartoon'".[13]

Gary is so fucking based.

...

One of my favorites.

> destroy wayne
> wayne you nerd

I always got a kick out of those signs.

The big wierdo in this strip terrified me.

kek

He kind of reminds me of Sweetums

Far Side is so fucking impressive. one panel is so goddamn funny

>WAYNE YOU NERD
killing me smalls

One of her chimps was also upset and tried to beat up Larson

Do not allow chimps access to the entertainment section or horoscopes

Oh fuck I'm dying

Isn't this one of the ones where the lettering got switched with Dennis the Menace in publication?

Wait, there's international Dennis?

They understand spanish and are capable of speaking fluently with humans, but the researchers themselves don't speak spanish, and (despite being educated folk) seem unaware of spanish

Damn, that's mean

Dachshunds are called weenie dogs, like a frankfurter.

KEK

A classic.

British Dennis

KEK

...

In the vein of humorously over-exposited backstories, there's the panel "Scene from Return of the Nose of Dr. Verlucci", I can't seem to find a pic of it though.

>Far Side and Family Circus

It could work.

How many baby killing jokes did he actually manage to publish? Wonder if he got many complain letters about them.

>In 1988, Larson visited Gombe where he was attacked by a chimpanzee named Frodo.

kek

I assume 90% of a newspapers letters, even in the pre-Internet days, was angry letters by elderly people who were offended by something. Anything.

>How many baby killing jokes did he actually manage to publish?

Three or four in this thread alone. So probably a least a few dozen across fifteen years.

why would you do this

This is one of my favorites

heh

One thing I always wondered was how The Far Side could get away with light swearing as a newspaper comic. I honestly don't know of any other strip that did.

>Dennis' mom

I saw it a few times. I remember being in 4th grade and being shocked that Foxtrot used "damn" once in quoting Gone with the Wind

...

>tfw you immediately hear the music

Does anyone in the Western hemisphere not know the Popeye theme?

even on the oldest of tv and radio comedies you had people making jokes about people who only read the newspaper looking for things to write angry letters about

Anything with dogs or snakes

Nope! I have it in the complete collection, that's the original dialogue. It's one of my favorites.

What was the original?

I always think about this when someone mentions the idea of dogs talking

That and that one episode of Dexter's Lab

Jerks

"Jerks."

So, same thing, really.

To be fair, none of them actually involve a baby dying. They're left ambiguous as to whether or not they'll succeed. The snake one didn't make print.

Fucking hell. The Smithsonian Institute recognizes this as the term.
I've done nothing with my life

I remember doonesbury saying damn once. Not that it made it any less boring than it was.

Scientists name things that way sometimes. It's how one of the genes associated with autism got called sonic hedgehog.

There's a protein named Pikachurin as well.

>heyyyyyyyyyyy
a thousand kekfold

You two have got to be fucking kidding me.

Additionally, there was one joke about ants saying they'd never fit the grown man they caught down the anthill.

His editor sent it back for being too gruesome, but once he changed the grown man to a baby, it went to print.

My sides have gone cosmic

Sonic hedgehog came cause early studies on fly genes discovered one that if removed caused flies to be born as a ball of spikes. They called it hedgehog. Later an associated gene was discovered and called sonic hedgehog cause it was more prevalent or something.

This would have worked better without the caption, to be honest.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonic_hedgehog

Also
>A potential inhibitor of the Hedgehog signaling pathway has been found and dubbed 'Robotnikinin', in honor of Sonic The Hedgehog's nemesis, Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik.

Instantly made me remember that guy who claims to have fucked Air Wolf and raped another car-fuckers "girlfriend" in the night.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pikachurin

If you have to write two full pages elaborating on why the one-panel joke is funny, it probably wasn't that funny.

>that subtle deception in the second panel

fucking WAYNE

>two full pages elaborating on why the one-panel joke is funny

The author explicitly says it wasn't funny, user. You didn't even read it. I'm not even giving you a "an attempt was made" sticker. You get nothing.

Try again.

>2016 - 20 = 2005.
I think you added in a few extra years somewhere in there, bucko.

>Far side
>Funny

You're just a tiny bit late with that comment.

if the thread survives till later today I'll upload onto MEGA both Tales From The Far Side specials and share them with you guys

Still hanging on my cupboard, still bringing it up in conversations.

I thought that was the other way around.

>finalfantasyVIII.jpg

I read it years ago in the commentary in one of my books, so I could be wrong.

>Marvel Comic Universe in a nutshell

...When I was a small boy, when my uncle first showed me this cartoon, I laughed because I thought it was making fun of caveman tools. I, for the life of me, cannot understand why people couldn't figure that out either.

My uncle had all these books which ibread as a kid.

The duck and dog ones are always my favorite

He's still alive.

What? It's a dog baying after taking down his most horrible of preys. What's confusing about this?
Oh, I get it, you all think the dog is fucking the car. No, that's dumb.

Anyone else think those were mushroom clouds from the thumbnail.

Too few and only when it's too late

Hello master of comedy. What do you think is funny?

This one always kills me.

>new

I saw a black man use a can opener once.

Damnedest thing I ever did see...

As one of those spazzes, I also agree that this is hilariously accurate.

It's so sneaky how the skullcap looks like a truck tire in the second panel.

The commotion that happens in my head after reading this is the best part. So many of these are 10/10

I don't get it.

Thanks for reminding me why I like this comic, Cred Forums.

Why is it so hard to just write wiener?

But wait, there's more:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strigiphilus_garylarsoni

I so love this one, and as a bonus, it pisses off dumb people.

Waiting for that mega

Shame comic strips are a lost art nowadays.
Webcomics will never reach the beauty that is Far Side or even fucking Dilbert

PBF is as close as we'll get.

Hah

The one of the guy doing a pull up has always been one of my favorites.

Anyway, didn't Larson ask for his comics not to be put online?

Larson hates small dogs.
As should everyone.

Sure
But Cred Forums never cared much, since all threads get deleted anyway after some time.

Fuck you

Funny thing about .

I don't think it was actually published in papers. It was just a page that randomly showed up in "PreHistory of the Farside" accompanied by the sentence. "Just turn the page and forget you saw this."

>accompanied by the sentence. "Just turn the page and forget you saw this."
... and I just realize it was right there on the image.


Disregard.

Your dog is a fucking faggot and I hope it gets mangled.

End that abomination.

Couldn't resist

>Anyway, didn't Larson ask for his comics not to be put online?

That was a while ago. I'd imagine he's realized there is no fighting the internet when it comes to illicit content distribution.

And it's not like people didn't photocopy and share things before then either. I don't think I've been to a single construction job site trailer without this comic on the wall somewhere.

Drunk people with swords competing to show off their skills.

Undoubtedly my favorite of his.

lmao

go cringe post somewhere else you abrasive nigger

How the fuck does he even come up with this stuff

There's nothing wrong with little dogs, except for the fat that a lot of people don't think they need to be trained, then you got these horribly behaved, little yappers running around.

A very vivid imagination and being very good at his job

Hah

...

I think this would actually be funnier if an adult

...

...

...

...

...

...

I would watch a movie about his comic

Oh hey, I didn't know Gary Larson made a comic based on my life

You guys are missing the joke.

It's meant to be nonsense.
It's making fun of the cliched scenario of like a Old West sheriff walking into a saloon and everyone freezing and looking at him.

It's presenting a ridiculous nonsense scenario with the gravitas of a familiar cliche.
That's the joke.

Pretty much Truman Show but with a dictator

Don't be stupid; Nostradamus is dead. There's no way I could live that long.

Ah, but is it truly a psychological experiment, or is it a clever ploy to see if they can get the great Lord Eddie to abandon his position?

>Cred Forums_moderators.jpg

This is the absolute best Far Side comic. This is the one that always, without fail, brings me to tears.

British Dennis is ugly, coarse, and stupid.

>What is the meaning of 'Cow Tools'? What is the meaning of life?

kek

That's not very clear at all. If he wanted to parody that cliche, he should have used a western saloon. Changing that element of the cliche seems to suggest there would be a connection between the new setting and the chicken.

Not quite cow tools tier, but not his tightest work.

I think it's also relating to the classic Samurai trick of proving their swordsmanship by cutting through a falling feather or handkerchief.

What's "be-in fayo" supposed to be?

What's the third phrase?

Yep. Had it as a kid.

How limited the view on language or civilisation might be, or like how people tend to hold themselves and their language or social structures as the norm of "civilisation", and if someone isn't capable of speaking their particular language, they're almost seen as not capable of intelligent speech. It's exaggerated so that the dolphins are actually communicating intelligently, even politely, but because it's not in English the researches see it as just weird sounds.

Always will be my favourite strip of all time.

>Typical game of SS13.

Is there really a joke if "terror comes to tiny town" is a real movie?

...

Yes. That's the point.

i think it's "really ugly"

When Gary Larson dies, he deserves a godhood of "God of Wordplay"

I wonder if Bob's Burgers is a nod to this. The original art style was slightly similar.

It's almost impossible to pick a favorite but this is definitely a strong contender.

...

I'm really proud of this thread for making it to 400 posts.

Why are his eyes in his mouth?
If he closes his mouth does it disappear completely behind his eyes?
Is that one eyeball with 2 pupils?
So many questions...

bless this man for redrawing panels

This is the BvS of funny pages. Only true intellectual gentlemen will understand this.

I like this one better.

reminds me of the weirdo in nedroid

kek

They're both equally real. The debuted practically the same day.

The British one is just edgier, as opposed to the American one's being a mild annoyance.

God these are so good.

This is excellent buts its missing a folder for 1989
Did he take a year off from drawing?

Yeah, he took a sabbatical

Lol

I never got this one as a kid.
I guess I hadn't heard the phrase "stick it where the sun doesn't shine"

Do people prefer the original black and white or colored.
I fell in love with the black and white.
But the color are nice, almost like a remastered version of a video game.

Love this one.
Stupid monkeys

does anyone else fap to far side comics? the way he draws the horses all fat gets me hot under the collar, sometimes i fantasize about gary larson turning into a female centaur and me fucking his horse vagina for hours

...

God the 80s were terrible.

Terribly funny!

That's just what old people do and have always done. It's half the reason newspapers exist.

He should have put the dog slightly above the transmission

Most of the time the color doesn't seem to add anything.
I prefer black and white since those allow the art to better focus on the joke.

This is bullshit but I believe it

Far Side's Loss when?

I thought he was fucking too.

Its funny to think that every time a dog chases a car is because they actually want to fuck it.

>dplay"
>But then, what would the point of the cartoon be?
Well, i assumed it was a double entente on the meaning of "chasers"

I might have been reading it wrong, but I think the absurdity of the lewd interpretation make it way funnier.

I cannot belive, and I suppose I don't, that he did not see it. Though he does seem to have a (deservedly) large ego. The comic works both ways though.

I don't think it's an 80s thing, just a human thing. Sometimes people get offended and complain about stuff.

I'm laughing over a fucking pun. Just end me now.

>'I am seriously thinking of cancelling my daily subscription to the lcoal paper because of the sick strips my son read aloud to me about animal cruelty."

>my son read aloud to me

>there is only a single word in that comic

Do you think Larson is sitting on a stack of Farside comics that will be posthumously relased by opprutinistic family members?

He has to doodle out a few now and then.

>As a teacher, I know what TV has done to children's behaviour and cartoons like this are in bad taste
What the fuck? It's a newspaper comic. How does TV fit into this?

I'm dense, explain?

Dark, I love it.

You'd be surprised how oblivious people can be sometimes.

Someone had to actually tell me Smithers was gay. Even after the Troy Mc CLure special I still didn't get it.

And years later, when I mentioned that for the first time on Cred Forums, someone asked me if, in the episode where Homer steal burns to grew hair back, I had at least get that Homer's assistant was gay. I hadn't, it wasn't only then it had click. I sure thought it was weird he had kissed homer, but I didn't thought more than that.

But wait, it's worst. Remember that episode where Homer was afraid Bart might be gay? I was basically just as slow as Homer when Marge was trying to spell it out for him. I got it when she said he was gay, which is only a step earlier than Homer.

It's the evil media corrupting the children.

They are basically like user on Cred Forums complaining about gay and diverse stuffs in comics.

Or like SJW complaining about lewdness on tumblr.

Things never change.

kek

It's a word play on the meaning of "turning bad".

Oh, Mr fucking New Jersey thinks he can talk shit about Kansas City.

I dunno about a large ego. From the way he tells various stories in his books, I get the vibe he's kind of insecure about the quality of his art/writing. He is protective of his works though; he's compared them to his children.

Oh fuck.

it's always terrible whatever decade it is
we just don't notice the shit as we are going up.

I think we would be great friends.

He could make a tent out of those, or use the wreckage as shelter, and there might be bottled water in there too.

We all could be friends
Not with Simpson's but in Marco's Modern Life the episode Clean Lovin' it took a decade and for it to be spelled out to me that Spunky was humping the mop. And when I say spelled out I mean she had to say "The dog is fucking the mop, user. He loves the mop so much because he's fucking it."

Okay.

>Let the fat do the work
kek

OP is a pretty cool guy

This holds true for anything really
Just look at all this millennial bullshit

bump

AIDS

got a gud giggle from that m8. wp

WE ARE the millenial.

Anyone born from the 80's to 2000 are millenial.

We still get a year and an half before the post-millenial start barging in.

>getting irrationally offended over shit only happened in the 80s
What rock do you live under, and is there room for me?

Ah, I remember when I was young and thought edginess always made things better.

Thank you.

I think this would be harder to misinterpret if he didn't give the wheels motion lines, which just adds to the idea that the dog is humping the car.

>implying they aren't already here

Huh that makes sense in a long drawn out way. Really helps drive the point that just because it makes sense to you doesn't mean it will to anyone else.

But it's illegal?!

>Larson had to do a press release explaining this shit
That's fucking hilarious

C&H thread just up and died. probably would have helped if that one user post didn't post 50 pages of an unrelated comic.

>had this book when I was younger
>thought my mom made the lipstick stain
>didn't find out it's on the cover until just now

Scientists are based.

They're pretty much losers that decided to do something with their lives.
Most of them probably frequent this filipino cave painting forum.

>lying on the Internet
Sure Jeb

>Implying I implied being a scientist
Fuck off, Marco. I swear to god, I'll fuck up your research.

i had the same with busses, lasted me till i was 14. i was too afraid to push the stop button on the buss, thinking it meant emergency break. lucky for me a man who usually took the same buss went of the stop before mine so i just followed him

>Implying that's the lie I'm talking about
Jindal please

holy fuck, I was reading this while Looney Tunes is on Cartoon Network and Daffy started woo-hooing

probably depends on age I doubt very few 20 and unders even know who popeye is

The guy being visited by the chicken of depression is my life

>C&H thread just up and died.

The one where people were complaining about how whiny and political Calvin & Hobbes was. And were shitting on Charles Schultz?

Man. I can't think why people wouldn't want more of that.

(yew)

a frightening large number of people actually believe this is how the worlds was created

TV was the explanation for any unacceptable behavior before the internet.

Not seeing how they're losers.
Do you mean nerds?

>Dark Skinned "People"

god is a fuckin racist

The comic you posted is making me hard so much my throat hurts, that fucker went straight past the defenses of good taste.

The only difference between the 80s and now is that you no longer need to post your cranky opinions, just post them online with the added "benefit" of having no editorial oversight on them.

No, this is my hole! Find your own! Go ask Tipper Gore or Pat Robertson for help, they seem to know what's best for everyone else

Back in the day, you'd need months, maybe years and quite a sum of postal cost to really get your opinions across, and it build character!

Yeah, nerds basically. But I'm playing on the idea of a nerd=loser.

sokafkaesque.ytmnd.com

Honestly the scientists I know aren't even particularly nerdy in their private life. They're in relationships, like sports, watch zombie Simpsons, and go on vacations of which they post pictures of on Facebook.
They're basically smart normies who like their jobs.

>cavemen figure out time travel, using a log
>modern technology can't time travel

WHAT DO THEY KNOW THAT WE DON'T?

Beano the Meano

A simple appreciation for nature?

>I find it so hilarious Someone getting mad for someone else at a perceived insult when really there was no harm done.

I love you

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

We need an edit without the caption and Wayne replaced with user.

It's like that saying "Keep it simple, stupid."

wholeheartedly keked

the far side just won a new fan...several decades later

he wouldn't have written "short-lived spectacle" for nothing

Douglas Adam goes over this a lot in his books. It's always pretty funny because they'll say things like
>Jeez why did make Ashok, the one black guy in the office the most dumbest one
to which he replies
>He's not dumb, he's just naive of how the office works, plus he's Indian
and they'll, the same people, will respond.
>Why aren't there any black guys in your comic??

Ah, artist problems.

definitely my favorite.

>Douglas Adam
Scott Adams is Dilbert guy. Douglas Adams is Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy guy, and long dead.

You mean Scott Adams, right?
I love H2G2, but still.

Fug, you're right, i'm dumb

Can't even blame this on my phone

It's all right, because it made me imagine Scott Adams and Douglas Adams collaborating on an office comedy. In Hell. Because Douglas Adams is dead.

If you mean because it was the last time people could fail to see obvious lewd implications like that, sure, although I'd extend that some way into the 90s. I'd like to think nowadays sex and crudeness are so prevalent no one would fail to see it and less people would give a shit anyway.

>Enlightened by my own intelligence.

He's totally fucking it.

The kicker is they're not always wrong, but if the targets don't care and no one's getting hurt then it serves no purpose to get mad about it or make a big deal about it-- the state of things is a certain and their offense won't affect it.

I fucking loved Death Takes a Holiday

Ah fuck me, chest hurts now thx user

It's been 10 years and I still remember this.

I still laugh at Attila the Bun.

>Taming of the Shrew

Shit, Roger, get it together.

Does anyone have the cartoon of the nerd semen?

This one is probably my favorite. It's basically my platonic ideal of humor.

What is KK supposed to be

Fuck me I'm stupid it's King Kong

Actually lol'd.

>complaining about Cred Forums on Cred Forums

He got a lot of mileage from this gag

To be fair both are great.

King Kong

I'll concede a laugh here.

my sides.
This shouldnt be as funny as it is

>Dilbert
