Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Quitting as loud as possible is also an option. 😎

And this is considered "funny"?

Humor is subjective

That a very good answer. You won. 😎

I don’t think it’s funny but for some reason I still appreciate custardfist’s goofy style and the effort they put in

[–] YarHarSuperstar 11 points 5 days ago

Eh, i don't know, it subverts expectations though which is kind of funny

I think the joke is okay and would have worked if I didn't have to make sense of a number of confusions I had to work through first.

number being represented by "nr". Nothing wrong here, just something that I'm not familiar with.
the use of "floop" to represent the sound of the list hitting the floor
the lines in the doorway representing, what I'm guessing are, stairs and not connected to the employee as I first considered
the disappearance of the desk from one panel to another
the path one manager in red took to get to the door from sitting at the desk

I don't know if anyone else has these problems to work through, but having had to work through them muted any enjoyment I would have gotten from the joke had that been absent.

I think the lines in the doorway represent the list falling. It wouldn't make a lot of sense for the manager's office to be in the basement of a fast food place.

...yes? I don't understand the confusion here?
