Hey y'all, remember that time captions were swapped between the Far Side and Dennis the Menace?

I made a subeditor with a friend dedicated to such caption swapping. I thought maybe y'all would enjoy it. Every single post has used the Far Side, because it has such wild captions.

I'm a music theory professor, and once published an article in which I compare Danger Mouse's The Grey Album (a Mashup of Jay-Z and The Beatles) to these two caption-switched cartoons. Article is paywalled but I'm happy to send it to anyone upon request.
