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've been eating dog food all week because it's all I have until the 9th.

Which sounds sad and pathetic and gross, but I make my own dog food by browning some ground turkey, boiling some mixed veggies and cooking some brown rice, then drizzling it with a tablespoon of high quality olive oil. It's basically a sheppard's pie without the crust.

I am quite bored of it tho...

You can eat spices. Add some curry powder, sesame oil, chilies, garlic. Something....

For sure. Salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and some good ol' MSG in my own bowl (no spices for the dogs). It's not that the food is bland, it's that I've had nothing but that 1 thing for 4 days. I need variety. 😅
