| Fark trivia (Posted on 1/10/13 at 11:12 am)
Maybe 'trivia' is the wrong word to use because I don't know the answers, but this thread could be used as a way for farkers to ask/answer questions on common fark concepts. 1) Where did the whole "deal with it"/shades concept originate? 2) There are obviously a lot of repetitive objects that are inserted into open-canvas type threads. Where did the gun made out of a duct-taped stick come from? 3) What movie is this from: I've seen some on the internet say its Zach Galifianakis, but I'm almost certain that's not him. Other questions?

In mid-late 2005, Matt Furie, creator of Feels Good Man, posted a webcomic (shown left) on MySpace using the phrase. On SomethingAwful[2], the catchphrase is often used in the web forums and is where the “smug dog” animated GIF (shown right) originated but the date it was added is currently unknown.

You google-image search "bearded man nodding gif" on the internet and sure enough there are several sites that identify it as zach galifianakis, despite it's obvious 70's movie look and feel to it. But if it's on the internet, it's gotta be true.

hope this helps. there r the 'fark gods' that know a hell of a lot more than i, but i know a little. 1) no clue/ i'm new here. 2) i'm guessing the reoccurring objects r like inside jokes - they r funny as hell when u know them. somebody found a stick w/ goat horns duck taped to it. can't remember whole story. - its sort of like, 2 me, the more you hang around, the more you learn. 3) actor is robert redford-movie is jeremiah johnson. - i'm sure of this cause i saw it n the theater.

If you look at goat farms, you will often see sticks taped to the goat's horns. This keeps them from sticking their heads through large mesh woven wire fencing, then getting stuck when they try to pull their heads out. Almost anyone over the age of 40 would recognize Robert Redford in Jeremiah Johnson...so you are right...it definitely isn't Zach Galifianakis

I have a similar question. Someone said the guy in this picture is Jerry Sandusky in his high school letterman's jacket. I'm 98% sure it isn't, but I'd like to be 100%
