It's still sad that Gary Larson no longer does weekly cartoons， because I feel like he would still have his finger on the pulse， and be making funny and absurd commentary on anything recent。 But these collections are not only hilarious， but also looking back at them as an older （wiser？ more learn-ed？） human， I also get new layers of jokes that I had initially just taken as face value。 Every page turn keeps you laughing， if not doubled-over from shear ridiculousness。 I was so happy when they rele It's still sad that Gary Larson no longer does weekly cartoons， because I feel like he would still have his finger on the pulse， and be making funny and absurd commentary on anything recent。 But these collections are not only hilarious， but also looking back at them as an older （wiser？ more learn-ed？） human， I also get new layers of jokes that I had initially just taken as face value。 Every page turn keeps you laughing， if not doubled-over from shear ridiculousness。 I was so happy when they released a new Off The Wall calendar， to go back and revisit some classic Far Side cartoons。 So I had to get back to all the volumes I had in my possesion。 i might have to order volumes 1 and 2 just to complete the collection！This stuff is funny for all。 。。。more

Maybe I'm dead inside， but only a handful of these made me chuckle。 The rest just made me say， "oh， I see what you did there。" Maybe I'm dead inside， but only a handful of these made me chuckle。 The rest just made me say， "oh， I see what you did there。" 。。。more

Aptly named， the Far Side offers an oblique kind of humour that takes a few comic strip panels to get used to and then becomes absolutely addictive。。！ I have seen a number of Far Side comic strips over the years， so when I found this book second-hand for under $2 I thought I’d give it a new home。 No regrets， just snickers。

What classic stuff！ Bought this at the beginning of COVID quarantine。 Best decision ever。 The laughs it provided were much needed。

Time is rarely kind to art which probably explains why when we find something that holds up over time it is truly worth praising。 I think there are two components to the time effect。 One is that so much art is topical referencing the landmarks of a particular time that it will readily be identified as dated before long。 The more "now" something is， particularly fashion， the less likely that it will stand the test of time。 One of my favorite missteps in a musicians career is when they produce som Time is rarely kind to art which probably explains why when we find something that holds up over time it is truly worth praising。 I think there are two components to the time effect。 One is that so much art is topical referencing the landmarks of a particular time that it will readily be identified as dated before long。 The more "now" something is， particularly fashion， the less likely that it will stand the test of time。 One of my favorite missteps in a musicians career is when they produce something "current" such as a production sound， etc。 that stands out as gimmicky when their whole body of work is later considered。 I'm thinking of Lou Reed。 Kind of interesting reading these 1980's comics in 2019 and being reminded of what was on our society's mind at the time。 But not that interesting。 The other component of time is our own personal time which hopefully aggregates into a person with a broad mind， wide experience， deep compassion and if we are really lucky， wisdom。 I would suggest that artistic work that holds up over time represents a sense of that cultures collective wisdom。 So when I read these comics in high school it seemed so original and brilliant with lots of laugh out loud moments。 Now in my 50's there were less than 10 of those and I think that is due to the personal component of time on the work。 。。。more
