Hello fellow Cyanide and Happiness fans!

About this community and how I post the comics… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. Of course these days you can read your favorite comics online instead of a newspaper, but I love the nostalgia of reading the daily comics. Anyway, one of my favorite current comics is Cyanide and Happiness and I will be posting the daily release from their website (https://explosm.net) and a an extra or two randoms.

Cyanide & Happiness (C&H) is a webcomic created by Rob DenBleyker, Kris Wilson, Dave McElfatrick and Matt Melvin. The comic has been running since 2005 and is published on the website explosm.net along with animated shorts in the same style. Matt Melvin left C&H in 2014, and several other people have contributed to the comic and to the animated shorts… Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanide_%26_Happiness

Hope you enjoy and feel free to contribute to the community with art, media, cool stuff about the authors, tattoos, toys and anything else, as long it’s Cyanide and Happiness related!

Ps. Sub to all my comic strip communities…

I've found on average that the younger the worker is, the more likely they are to ask if you need help finding something. Every time it's an older worker they scatter into the canals and sewer grates from fear of having to use their handheld.

Unfortunately, it's also true that the younger the worker is, the less likely they are to know where anything is.

I actually started to write that out and stopped. The last time I was "helped" this very nice young girl took me back and forth across the store to the spots I already searched and eventually she asked an older worker who knew where it was. She walked past the item and I had to tell her "it's right here thanks for your help". I wouldn't have found it on my own, but she also wouldn't have found it on her own.

Dang it! I just replied with the same thing and then saw your comment right after sending mine.

But also the younger the worker, the less likely they are to know where the thing is. They're going to pull out their phone and look it up on the website. Go to a local hardware store if you want people who know where things are and what those things do.
