Line 1: {{work\|wppage=Barney Google and Snuffy Smith}} ~~{{work}}~~ '''''Snuffy Smith''''' is a newspaper comic about a hillbilly community. It originally began inon ~~the~~June ~~1930s~~17, 1919 as ''Take Barney Google, F'rinstance'', but once the Smith clan was introduced, Barney was eventually written out in favor of the more-popular Smith. The official name of the strip remains ''Barney Google and Snuffy Smith'', even though the former character hasn't been a regular character for at least 50 years. The Smith clan is: Line 7: * Jughaid, the oldest son. Usually seen in a coonskin cap. * Tater, the baby. This is one of the longest of the [[Print Long Runners\|Newspaper Comics Long Runners]] in North America - only ''[[Gasoline Alley]]'' and ''[[The Katzenjammer Kids]]'' have longer uninterrupted runs. (And if ''Snuffy Smith'' continues its uninterrupted run until July 8, 2027, it will surpass ''[[The Katzenjammer Kids]]''. It will always be a half-year younger than ''[[Gasoline Alley]]'' until such time as one or the other stops running new strips.) ---- {{tropelist}} * [[The Alleged Steed]]: Barney's horse Sparkplug. * [[Artifact Title]]: For decades, ''Barney Google and Snuffy Smith'' has been all-Snuffy,. ~~no-~~Barney ~~for~~made ~~''decades''~~an appearance in 1997, then another appearance in 2012, and has been a recurring character since then. ** According to [[The Other Wiki]], Barney puts in a very occasional reappearance<ref>As in, 1997 and then 2012 "occasional".</ref>. * [[Character Song]]: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StkJTSAq0dE "Barney Google (with the Goo-Goo-Googly Eyes)"]. * [[Lampshade Hanging]]: With The Other [[Google]] having sprung to prominence in the 2000s, Barney Google's reappearance in 2012 resulted in the sheriff thinking he was supposed to be [[Irony\|an internet entrepreneur]]. * [[Literal-Minded]]: In one comic, Snuffy lands a [[Precision F-Strike]] when asked to swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, then lampshades this trope after being reprimanded: {{quote\|'''Snuffy''': [[Curse of the Ancients\|Consarn it]], Judge, you're the one who told me to swear!}} * [[~~Name~~Long ~~and Name~~Runners]]: ~~Officially,~~Has been running for over ata ~~least..~~century. * [[Name and Name]]: Officially, at least. {{reflist}} [[Category:{{PAGENAME}}]] [[Category:Print Long Runners]] [[Category:Newspaper Comics]] [[Category:~~Snuffy~~Newspaper ~~Smith~~Comics of the 1910s]] [[Category:~~Comic~~Newspaper ~~Strip~~Comics of the 1920s]] [[Category:Newspaper Comics of the 1930s]] [[Category:Newspaper Comics of the 1940s]] [[Category:Newspaper Comics of the 1950s]] [[Category:Newspaper Comics of the 1960s]] [[Category:Newspaper Comics of the 1970s]] [[Category:Newspaper Comics of the 1980s]] [[Category:Newspaper Comics of the 1990s]] [[Category:Newspaper Comics of the 2000s]] [[Category:Newspaper Comics of the 2010s]] [[Category:Newspaper Comics of the 2020s]]
