Far Out There: 2024 Thanksgiving CLOSE UP
🕑 Added 2024-11-29 14:49:50 +0000 UTCI FORGOT I SAID I WAS GONNA START DOING THIS!
Okay, so I'm pretty bad about misjudging how hard it can be to read the little details in pages of Far Out There. I'll have the thought to squeeze in a tiny little bit of fine print as a joke for eagle-eyed readers, and forget that I already had the comic zoomed in something ridiculous at the time. So then, when I scale the image down to normal web-size, it winds up being completely illegible. It had come up in conversation that I should post big, high-rez versions of the comics somewhere, or at least post a zoomed in picture of the text in question as a bonus for patrons. Well, after some reminding, here we go! I home this dry bit of legal disclaimer nonsense is what everybody was hoping and dreaming for!
Actually, just to provide a little clarification: "the Persean Confederation" is one of several fakey, made up, space countries I like to name drop in comics, with the hope that seeing the same names pop up over and over will create the illusion of world-building. Also, I was trying to create the impression that these Thanksgiving Pills might be government issue, like something that's distributed to the military. Because, you know, anyone would just LOVE to have a futuristic version of an MRE for Thanksgiving.
Huh, that actually DID wind up having a little bit of real content to it. Here's hoping I don't need to be reminded in the comments to do this next time!

I've had a few MREs on camping trips that were honestly pretty decent... IF you prepared them just right.

I've actually had the Turkey US Military MRE...and it really is just as awful as Marshall would have us believe. Like eating shoe leather. (The other ones I've had actually aren't bad, just the Turkey...I don't know what they were thinking with that one. Maybe they give it out as punishment.)
