I feel like with most of these far side comics, including this one, I must be missing some reference or subtlety that makes it funny. Can anyone explain this one to me?
There’s not anything to get, mostly. They’re a little funny because they have people doing somewhat relatable things in insane circumstances, and then they’re funny on a meta level where they’re kinda dumb, so you feel dumb for finding it funny.

It’s a joke about the (fictional) city of Atlantis that sunk into the ocean.

I really don’t get how popular they are here. A small and active community?
