Awwww... that means we'll have to go back to laughing at whatever he types. For all the wrong reasons.

This idea sucks, there is not a chance that anyone will agree with you on this one.

Funniyl enough, I hadn't seen Far Side until I'd started reading SMBC, so I assumed Gary Lason was ripping Zach off. I was shocked, and there was no infanticide within sight.

And the reason Zach comes up wiht funny stuff every day is quite simple, he has a team of monkeys killing babies and sacrificing their innards to the Lord of the Puns who then bestows His amazing comedy upon Zach each and every day.

Alternately, he may just be a funny guy with a creative mind, but I prefer my first explanation.

There's no way you saw SMBC before you saw The Far Side. That's madness.

I live in my house, the only tiems I leave are for food/drink/party/work/shopping.

I didn't come across Far Side until I went into Waterstones and saw a calendar. This was three weeks after beginning reading SMBC.

wow, i just found this thread and i gotta say... danni sure did fly off the handle there. murdering infants, now that's funny... but comparing two single pane comics, that's blasphemy! Also, I can't believe you guys all backtracked so quickly. "we're sorry danni and zach, please don't be mad at me", "i wasn't comparing the comics honest" sissies.

Backtracked? I never asserted I thought SMBC was like anything else, ever.

Although, now the gauntlet has been thrown down, I shall.

SMBC is like a really good back scrub, with a quality flannel that has the texture of sandpaper*.

* Probably around an 800 grit, or maybe just a 600.
