    This picture has no meaning. Is there some other part that isn’t shown?

        I see the caption, but it doesn’t help. why would a cow dog be on fire, who are these people? why would it burn more than once? my brain cant handle this.

          They are a couple of demons or devils, in hell. Their demon dog is on fire, which is probably a common occurrence in their firey realm, therefore someone needs to “put the dog out,” which is a play on words–put out as in extinguish the fire. As opposed to a similar scene which would be a normal couple in their living room, and the wife says it’s husband’s turn to “put the dog out,” as in, let the dog outside. It’s all an absurd pun.

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

Hope you enjoy and feel free to contribute to the community with art, cool stuff about the author, tattoos, toys and anything else, as long it’s The Far Side!
