how the heck is the buggy upright on 2 wheels?

rustyredox,

Segway buggies? Sounds like a great way to exacerbate the issue of runaway baby carriages. When they tip beyond the point of no return, they’ll just yeet themselves off into the road.

The tandem bike makes the whole joke. A normal bike would have been meh, but this is much funnier, because you wonder about the riders and their relation

Vathsade,

Probably guys from the same bike

hansl,

And also both of them missed it. Hah!

It’s like the old joke; three frogs are on a train track just hanging out. One of them says “watch out there’s a…” WUMP! “A what?” WUMP! WUMP!

Pyr_Pressure,

It definitely made me wonder what the point of a tandem bike was to be included.

Then I thought it might have been funnier if the first rider was still on the bike while only the second rider hit the bridge, presumably because his view was blocked by the first rider who was able to see the bridge and duck in time to miss it.

I hate it when the captions are cut off.

I don’t think there is a caption to this one. Just a riff on cowboys singing to cattle. The tuba’s not quite as soothing

nilloc,

Cowboys and harmonicas are usually the trope. This guy brought a Susa phone (to be pedantic about the tuba).

This is less of a joke and more of an illustration of the ending of Moby Dick, except the whale is the wrong color.

toast,

Spoilers!

Guess it’s my turn: I don’t get it. Who can explain?

MrQuallzin,

Role reversal. Humans run when they see an aligator/crocodile, so the inverse is true in the comic

feedum_sneedson,

Should have opted for Amazon Prime. 😛

Pika,

nowadays that’s with prime!

Isn’t it ironic, don’t you think?

grayman,

Or to the educated, coincidental.

Still no gas. Should be a sailboat kit.

Box says gas included. Gary thinks of everything

Why are their backs huge butts?

if_only,

It’s because these are the rare butt-back cavemen

Nice to see Thag still alive

if_only,

This must predate the fateful incident

I don’t get it. I suspect it’s a bird joke but I don’t see anything that looks like a robin.

psud,

The bird’s beak is just to the right of the centre

I’m telling you, this can’t be a thought a human simply had.

Seleni,

Some people are just born weird.

Synthuir,

And some people bust out 4,337 of these gems!

phorq,

= I 1337 you +3000

Anticorp,

Gary Larson certainly was.

psud,

It wasn’t a rare phrase that someone waltzed into a place and stole something. I can see how he could come to this

This is one of those stupid comics that has, of its own free will, randomly popped back into my head over the last 20 years.

I had started to think it wasn’t real and I’d just misremembered a Far Side comic and now boom, it’s here like an awkward Christmas gift.

evidences,

This comic lives rent free in my brain, I think about it far to often.

psud,

I bought the collection of far side back in the 90s, once it was finished. So none of these are new to me, but they still make me chuckle

Maybe the joke is the time between ordering and delivery? I don't really get it

sugar_in_your_tea,

Nah, just raw irony.
