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

All I can hear is the theme to Jaws
Bowling animations vibes.
this is Wreck-It Ralph in an alternative timeline
Four holes? Don't bowling balls normally have three? Maybe that's what made him turn bad.
He had a lobotomy
Technically it would be a trepanation.
There are also 11 pins.
Yeah. You're right.
Guess you could say one of them is... ahem... a spare.
First thing I noticed too. I've seen house balls with two sets of finger holes that are differently sized, but they're usually on opposite sides of the thumb hole. I could maybe see this pattern for giving another grip option depending on hand size or where you place your thumb, if the thumb hole were offset. You'd still use two fingers, but you have two options for where to put them in relation to your thumb position.
Heh, I did some googling and TIL there's bowlers on /r/bowling with opinions on holes
And TIL as well. Thanks.
Rotten to the core.
