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…

Fun fact: as my philosophy prof never failed to point out platonic friendship in the original Greek sense did not exclude sexual relations and related to a relationship between mentor and student, which meant they were homosexual in nature.

Interesting to see that. Definitions that exclude sexual relationships seemed very heavily based on weird conceptions of who should be having sex and end up making it harder for people who engage in sex for reasons outside sexual and/or romantic attraction to describe themselves.

And asymmetrical?

Shouldn’t the fourth panel have been another question?

I think the Socratic method is when the teacher questions the student continuously.

What evidence do you have to support this?

First good out-loud laugh of the day. What was that 311 lyric…

Aristotle I'm not, but think of Socrates.

I prefer my relationships Kafkaesque.
