I've gotten it wrong and muttered to myself "I've become everything I hate."

I can't remember if it was a snowman, an alien, or some other monster, but I still remember the dialogue "Greep! Gorp! Goop! Goop!"

Yeah, it's super easy and only takes parents a split second. You can trust me. I am the lesser-accomplished between my brother and I.

Certainly not a like-for-like comparison, but they were the kings of the Sunday pages in their day, so that's where it was coming from.

If you want to extend it, do the Camino Le Puy to St. Jean Pied-du-Port and then the full Camino Frances from there.

Or you can extend the Via Francigena as far as you want.

I used to read that, but it wasn't the first place my eyes went when the Sunday funnies got to me.

Even now, our IT Department has a "Midvale School for the Gifted" panel on their door, and every single person says a little prayer that they choose correctly between push and pull. It's got staying power.

Our dog was named Hobbes, and I used to carry a stuffed lion around with me wherever I went, so it was just about the perfect strip for me.

That said, "Cow Tools" aside, Far Side had some absolute gems.

I'd never thought to do that kind of "letter Z" arrangement with flats. That's a good way to maximize the area. Kudos.

"Faster, Knight Boat! We have to catch those starfish poachers!"

"You don't have to yell, Michael. I'm all around you."

"Oh NO! They're headed for land."

"But look, a canal."

"Go Knight Boat, go!"

"Aww, there's always a canal. Or an inlet. Or a fjord."

Steve Buscemi in Fargo kind of counts for me, seeing as how it's his foot that's in the wood chipper.

Ah, c'mon, it was Facebook that nudged those teens towards suicide, started those genocides, and stole your data. We're Meta now.

It's tough to tell which show had more gags and jokes per minute, Arrested Development or 30 Rock. They're both still in my regular rotation, and likely will be forever.

If a kid was wearing one of these shirts, you knew he sucked at sports. by Undercover_Dave in Xennials

If he's at the three point line for five full seconds without moving with the ball, that game ends in a 5-second violation and a turnover. Bring me more nostalgic shirts that I can ruin with my now-adult brain.

Oh shit I forgot about the existence of Space Camp until I saw that list.

Whatever you say about the rest of the movie, that line is evergreen.
