Icon22 Nietzsche Family Circus

Quote:
The Nietzsche Family Circus pairs a randomized Family Circus cartoon with a randomized Friedrich Nietzsche quote.
Strange and strangely addictive, but the pairing makes some surreal sense at times.

So I click on the link, and the cartoon has the mother with a book "Bible Story of Creation", and one of the kids saying "Whoever battles with monsters had better see that it does not turn him into a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you."

Kinda fitting.

It makes me smile.


Of course, what does that say about me?

The hits keep on coming.

With Billy's eyes closed thoughtfully as the ad prevails upon the viewers, this one almost seems like it could have been a Family Circus panel. Except of course, it is not merely cute, but also intelligent.

Another that could almost have been an original FC strip.

...she says, having just handed Jeffy the bow.

God, these are great - I think I know how I'm spending the next 45 minutes until rehearsal!

ETA: OK, had to add this one - best excuse ever!

I can't decide if Nietzsche wouldn't be able to stop laughing or throwing up. Like the Nazarene!
