You do realize y’all are getting all pissy about another group of people hypothetically getting all pissy?

What’s worse? Getting upset over a harmless cartoon, or getting upset about the idea of someone else getting upset over a harmless cartoon?

I’d call it a tie for last place.

Probably getting upset at the idea that someone would get upset at someone getting upset over a harmless cartoon.

Would have been clever if I at all came across as upset. It was just an observation.

I’m just happy as hell to have Far Side back.

Well, now I'm upset that you weren't actually upset.
And on that note, I'd say that this has been run into the ground.

At one time back in the 80s I had almost all is books. Somewhere along her way I lost them. To hear Larson is coming back is just awesome. If you think about it, he was memeing back before we even knew what memes were.

Exactly.

It's always been one of my favorites.






As a bonus, after posting it and reading all the posts bitching about people saying SJWs wouldn't ruin the Far Side, I see it proves that there is absolutely material they will bitch about

This Larson he/him/his reeks of white privilege. A white man putting words into an America Indians’ mouth is rape. His cultural and animal appropriation is offensive and typical of the patriarchy. And “coming out” of retirement is bigoted homophobic language that deserves punishment. He also has many comics that fat and handy capable shame. Not to mention many comics with chickens in them - a clear racist dog whistle in support of Chik-fil-a. If I even see a new Far side comic I’m going to lull myself in protest.

I wish I could find the one where 2 ducks are in a bar and one of them is all bandaged up, and he didn’t want to go home and tell his wife that he had been checking out a decoy.
