The Complete Far Side - Am I the Only Geek That Bought This?

Gosh, I hope not. I was warned off the purchase by my daughter, who informed me I’d better not buy it as my birthday was coming up.

Paul’s petty acquisitive jealousy was abruptly eclipsed by the realisation that Qadqop must have, at some point, had sex with a woman :eek:

Sigh. I gave up fighting it and bought it last night. It must weight 30 pounds. I stayed up half the night reading volume one. I’m such a sucker… but at least I’m a sucker with an enormous number of Far Side cartoons.

Nah, I hear QtM reproduces by spawning in handy streams. So if you ever find him lurking around a glass of water, you have license to be wary.

One thing’s for sure, reading this thing has been one helluva workout.

Heaviest. Book. Ever.

Well, at least you lasted, what? All of two days? That’s a record you can be proud of.

Saw it yesterday at Costco for $49.99. Too bad I’m broke after buying such necessities as 10 pounds of buttermilk pancake mix and a bushel of funsize candy bars.

Got it for Christmas. My favorite part is the complaint letters printed alongside some of the cartoons. Some of them are funnier than the cartoons themselves.
