I have my huge, wonderful, but HEAVY hardcopies... so scrolling this account is ethically acceptable. 😉

I’m hoping to call as little attention to this as possible, but following the bulldog attack two days ago the rare individual needs to know:

Finding your account just made my day. You brought back a little piece of my Dad for just a moment. Thank you!

farsidecalendar.bsky.social•193 days ago

Wish I were Gary Larson. I'm uncomfortable absorbing compliments that should go exclusively to him.

But I think you just made my day, too.

napoleenon.bsky.social•76 days ago

Thank you! Had no idea he was making new work! One of my favorite cartoonists. I would read his collections as a kid. Gary Larson helped shape my humor.

Here's one of my favorites.

outdoorsbabe.bsky.social•118 days ago

Yes I will follow..as long as the the formers cartoons are posted as opposed to what I’ve seen recently.

tlcesq.bsky.social•193 days ago

I’ve been pithed.
Hope to see it in your feed.

Hold on to your Cow Tools

I have my Far Side book. I’ve had it for years! 🥰👍👍👍👍👍

lindenthescribe.bsky.social•102 days ago

I appreciate your efforts! We used to have some Far Side books, but our grown kids swiped them. They know valuable heirlooms when they see 'em. 😊

met the brilliant cartoonist a million years ago at a Waldenbooks signing-good to see these here!!

farsidecalendar.bsky.social•192 days ago

Nice! Woulda loved to meet him, thank him for all the laughter he's given me, praise his art style too (which disappoints me in most cartoonists today), and then berate him for never putting ferrets in The Far Side.

bellatv55.bsky.social•192 days ago

he, and Kilban - brilliant. thanks for posting those!

charlierichmond.bsky.social•193 days ago

they make absolutely the best notepads!!

charlierichmond.bsky.social•193 days ago

I got the calendar every year!

farsidecalendar.bsky.social•193 days ago

I got the calendar only once. I couldn't help myself and flipped ahead, checking out the whole year in the first week. No discipline. Heh heh.

Usually I just re-read my Far Side Gallery books. 1-4 are all classic.

tbas7000.bsky.social•177 days ago

That's fine.

ashleyrobobunbot.bsky.social•192 days ago

Oh yes I LOVEEEEEE farside comics, it's such a pain finding stuff online tho

billypilgrim65.bsky.social•75 days ago

If you know Gary, send him love from a fan.

farsidecalendar.bsky.social•75 days ago

I do not, though I have dumb hopes that he follows this account incognito so he can see how popular each panel is, and read the comments.

If he does, your love will be received. :)

I miss the days when I turned to the funnies , and specifically Gary, before the front page.

billypilgrim65.bsky.social•75 days ago

Is that what Americans called the comic pages..."the funnies"?

farsidecalendar.bsky.social•75 days ago

Usually they were the "comics pages" to me, growing up in the midwest. Perhaps other Americans said "funnies".

The Far Side was the first thing I'd go to in the paper as well. Even remember it was at the bottom of the back page of the comics. Quick find.

billypilgrim65.bsky.social•75 days ago

Funnies is what we called them here in Oz.

joeymaxlewis.bsky.social•184 days ago

My favorite Gary L cartoon is a picture of Il Sistino with workers on the flooring with sleeveless tshirts and a pipe with the caption “no one remembers Lambini and sons are generally credited with the Sistine Chapel floor”

farsidecalendar.bsky.social•184 days ago

Yes! Love that one, too.

I don't know if I could name a favorite. There are so many great ones.

joeymaxlewis.bsky.social•184 days ago

True. The cows are great, too. Smoking, talking until a car drives by!

gothox.bsky.social•66 days ago

Ridiculously good fun.😂 Thank you for doing this!👍

wooferunleashed.bsky.social•162 days ago

How did I go this long without seeing your posts!? Huge fan of Larsen, I still have a couple of books of his from donkey’s years ago. Thank you for being here😁

wooferunleashed.bsky.social•162 days ago

LarsOn. Damn you auto correct!
