The Far Side
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

I don't know much about termites so the "century-old" part raised an eyebrow....but nope, he didn't make that up
How about that. But that's in Brazil and aardvarks are only native to Africa....
Oh. Damn.
Reminds me of a Japanese "ghost story" I read (dunno how authentic this is, I got it out of the Barnes and Noble discount bin lol) about a man who falls asleep under a tree and isekais into the ant colony around the tree which has a long and storied history, living out a life where he married the princess, has daughters, died and was entombed before waking up and digging up the ant colony to find his own tomb.
I don't like bugs, but I would watch this kind of story around a termite colony...
Sounds pretty rad but those poor ants...
Crazy that the climate has been stable for that long
