Doors opening outward is usually safer in case of a fire or other evacuation scenario.

Fact. New builds in Scandinavia are often built to have the front door open onto the street for that very reason.

Same in the US. Very nearly all exterior doors in public buildings open outward for safe egress. Doors in homes tend to open inward (presumably to protect the hinges.)

We had an audit two weeks ago and they had a bunch of inner safety doors rebuilt the other way around for that very reason. They had just been built a month before, too!

Hello fellow Far Side fans!

About this community and how I post the comic strip… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips and one of those was The Far Side. These days of course you find just about anything online including www.thefarside.com where they post several comics a day and I repost them here. Just to note, the date you see in my posts is not the initial release date, but the date they were posted on the website.

The Far Side is a single-panel comic created by Gary Larson and syndicated by Chronicle Features and then Universal Press Syndicate, which ran from December 31, 1979, to January 1, 1995 (when Larson retired as a cartoonist). Its surrealistic humor is often based on uncomfortable social situations, improbable events, an anthropomorphic view of the world, logical fallacies, impending bizarre disasters, (often twisted) references to proverbs, or the search for meaning in life… Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Far_Side

Hope you enjoy and feel free to contribute to the community with art, cool stuff about the author, tattoos, toys and anything else, as long it’s The Far Side!
