I was into this old computer game “Bouncing Babies” when this comic came out.

There was a hospital on fire and someone keeps tossing babies out the window and you’re the fire crew and bounce them into a waiting ambulance.

How does that old saying go? Out of the fryer into the flame or something like that?

Essentially yes. I think it’s usually, “out of the frying pan, into the fire.”

Anybody else see this as a commentary on political elections?

Nah, it’s just an absurd scenario. Sometimes the curtains are just blue.

The red building has two floors on fire and the beige building only has one floor on fire i.e. the lesser of two evils 🫠

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!
