I think I understand this one. The woman represents the artist introducing insight and novelty into the lives of their audience, the dogs. Notice the can’s jagged edge symbolizing the lengths they went through to hone their craft and the small intellectual space they’re afforded to explore with their instrument, the spoon. Jewelry adorns her, representing her success. She’s not tired, not angry, just resigned to the perpetual slog of existence. She scoops the dog food. Her dogs eat it. She lives another day.
( nods existentially )
I think I might love you.
Gary Larson probably identifies more with the dog than the woman, and wonders why anyone thinks this panel is funny.
lol
I don’t know what “the far side” is about, but that dog on the right looks hillarious. It’s the face I make during highschool when the teacher forgets to collect homework.
It’s a boomer comic
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. 😅
I don’t understand the implication, what was she feeding them before?
Copyright 1982? What was happening then?
It’s about dogs tending to be excited over the same things over and over again.
The green bowl represents the greed of politicians. The woman is obviously Nancy Pelosi, or maybe Elizabeth Warren. The food is our money. They want us to eat dog food. The cabinets behind us (the animals they view us as) represents the Biden administration sneaking up on us. The red ketchup represents the communists.
Jesus, this is easier than I thought. Alex Jones is a hack lol
Now the real question is do you have morals, or do you want to fleece the idiots. Anyone can make a fortune pandering to their base, I’m just couldn’t live with myself making it that way.
I think about this so much when I start getting stressed at work. Like, it can’t be that hard, Gavin McGinnis does it! Then again, all of their grifts are cooking around them right now.
Dogs just being dogs. No concept of: kitchens, culinary delights, wide variety of foods, grocery stores, etc. They be hungry… you make… dog love you. Dogs don’t know. ☺️
1982? Perhaps foods was fattier or tastier then. Only time I have my tongue like that was when Shakey’s Pizza was still around.
Probably a boomer joke about how the dog food is better than her cooking.
I can’t imagine how much bored one needed to be to find all these comics entertaining back then.
Going through them now is a bit different, they’re not exactly entertaining, they’re, idk, a weird echo of a time long gone.
