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…

Don’t give them ideas.

Henry Stickmin, I hereby sentence you to death. You are to raise the money for the required medical procedure by slave work for the next 75 years.

I mean, they can't really force you to work in that case. Why wouldn't you just refuse to work? Or just hunger strike?

*Points at Geneva Conventions.

Only applies to prisoners of war.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Easy, declare your prison cell a country and then declare war on the country your in

New war incoming?

Insert the Bender laughing at Leela GIF here.

*Points at the Constitution.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Ah but it doesn't violate the conventions if we convince people it's not torture but rather medical treatment!

They can force you to work.

Slavery is still legal in the US as a punishment under the 14 amendment

Henry Stickmin, I hereby sentence you to death.

Death by teleporter?

I get to work, for free?!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Just immediately buy a PS5 with death money.

Possibly dark question.

So if you kill yourself, your family has to pay for your funeral.

But if the city/state/country kills you, free burial?

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If your body goes unclaimed then it's up to whatever local entity to dispose of it. Most places cremate.

If you want to watch a dark documentary about how dead people without a next of kin are handled. => https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0342180/

Not for research? Like testing for car crashes?

[–] venoft 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Not without consent (before your death obviously..). Last time I checked I found that donating your body to science is surprisingly difficult.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

No, they're turned into Halloween decorations

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Wait, did they ever do car crash tests with real bodies!?

There's also free sex.
