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.

Seriously though, one of my biggest pet peeves is when they get every other aspect of touch-less design correct, and then fail with the door.
#designfails
My understanding (which may be false) is that this can come about from competing design considerations and regulations. Like... It's ideal to be able to push the door open from the inside of the bathroom so you don't have to touch a nasty doorhandle, but you also don't want somebody to be able to put something in front of the door, potentially trapping you in the bathroom (particularly in the event of a fire... Dying in a fire is probably worse than touching a nasty doorhandle), and you also don't want doors to unexpectedly swing open into busy hallways. This drives me nuts too, though.
Eh, there's an easy solution that a lot of places are starting to use. A foot pull. Probably costs $5-10. No real excuse for any place not installing these.
I mean hell yes I’m for this. Just the obvious solution of “make it push” might not work.
