The Far Side

To get to The Far Side, take a series of sharp left turns, then go slightly around the bend. You’ll know you’ve arrived when you spot your first bipedal cow and egg-beaters begin dropping from the sky.

This land, despite its popularity, has only one tour guide, by the name of Gary Larson. He will gladly show you and your friends around a bizarre, awkward and hilarious country where logic has gone slightly askew. Popular attractions include the Midvale School for the Gifted, with its outward swinging door, as well as the exhibit on the real reason the dinosaurs are extinct.

If one is lucky, one may even see the stone-age vegetarians returning with their kill.

The residents of The Far Side are as fascinating as the country they inhabit. For starters, the humans here are locked in a perpetual 1963. The women, for example, all wear house dresses and tear-drop glasses; their hair is worn exclusively up in a bee-hive. 

Among the well-known citizens, there are Short Godzilla and Theron the bed-drying fish. They make frequent appearances outside the Far Side, but are always available to greet guests. There are other very influential elements to this country, and its impact on the world of science has been important.

The tail of a stegosaurus is called

a "Thagomizer." I am not making this up.

The Far Side is open to tourists 24 hours a day, and visitors are welcome to stay as long as they like. Be warned however, that those on long-term visits will find themselves starting to fit in.
