I’d like to read about that,understand how it’s done. it’s a thought I have whenever I see them but of course the professionals designing them would have thought about it.
Hah, those were the days. On your topic though, yea it sucks the way celebrities are treated. It’s part of why they command such compensation (I think) they don’t get to live normal lives even if they wanted to. Becoming famous demands security to a degree most people aren’t familiar with at all.
He hooked me so hard by showing how Ohio would sound over it, I wanted to laugh but I was also flabbergasted and so just noise and head shaking and disbelief is what I mustered.
But yea, I’ll go back and watch the old ones. Thanks.
Just to add another layer to this. I uploaded the image to the AI and asked what was funny. It insists the snake is wrapped around the telephone pole, the fence or the man’s waste.
I had no idea, so i asked my AI overlord to explain the joke to me.
“Ah, that sounds like a classic Gary Larson twist! Without seeing the specific comic, I can offer a general interpretation of what the humor might be in a Far Side comic featuring a lost 30-foot long brown snake named Ginger.
The humor here likely lies in the absurdity and contrast of the situation. On one hand, you have a potentially menacing, large snake, which people would typically find intimidating or even frightening. On the other hand, it’s being treated as if it’s a harmless, lost pet with a cute, non-threatening name like “Ginger.” This juxtaposition of a dangerous creature being treated in a domestic, almost tender manner is a common type of humor found in Far Side comics. It plays on our expectations — you’d expect a lost pet poster for a small dog or cat, not a huge snake!
The comic might also be playing with the irony of how a 30-foot long snake could possibly be “lost” given its size, making it a humorous commentary on how we sometimes overlook the obvious.
Far Side comics often have these layers of humor, where the situation is exaggerated or presented in a way that’s contrary to what we’d expect in reality”.
