FAR SIDE ART OF TWO KIDS AT SCHOOL
Gary Larson's The Far Side has a lot of recurring themes and subjects, from cows to cowboys to life on other planets. However, perhaps Larson's favorite setting of all time for his gags was the humble classroom, taking his characters back to school in various bizarre ways.
2 13 Metal Shop This Far Side Comic Stars a Secret Recurring Character In The Prehistory of The Far Side, Larson reveals that some of his gags come from short stories he writes to explore ideas. Larson's story sees shop teacher Mr. Rockford getting a little too lazy while teaching his shop class, leaving the kids to their own devices. A robot meant to help mankind quickly becomes deadly when one of the kids suggests adding a death ray, with the class receiving an F for the resultant chaos.
11 Dog School Larson's Take on a Classic Cliché It's a famous cliché that kids who haven't done their homework will try and claim that while they did complete the assignment, the family dog ate it, making it impossible to hand in. Larson takes that concept to the next level when every student is the family dog, with the added gag of blackboard arithmetic using bones instead of numerals.
In this other 'caveman classroom and stegosaurus' strip, Larson humorously names the spiked end of a stegosaurus' tail after the cavemen presumably killed by it. However, it turned out that this trait didn't actually have an official name, and with so many scientists being fans of The Far Side, archaeologists welcomed the word 'thagomizer' into their official vocabulary.
