Researchers discovered that King John in medieval England created the first comic strip.

It was called the "Mangacarta".

(A gem from my dad a few days after visiting the Kyoto Manga Museum.)

Speaking to a friend: "My mother once told me, 'if you want to go further on your journey, you have to take that next step, no matter how daunting'." My friend piped up, "Don't you mean farther?" To which I replied:

"No, I'm fairly certain it was my mother."

Credit to B.C. (comic strip), most likely paraphrased since I read it many a moon ago, though I'm fairly certain the punchline is very close to the original.
