      Its not a joke, its just a message, telling people that being happy doesnt have to rely on wealth and fancy stuff. That there is nothing wrong with being happy with a simple life.

          There is no punchline and there isnt supposed to be. Are you trolling?

            Nah, I got trolled by the comic: was expecting a punchline, so I read all that story for nothing.

              I also expected a joke from a comic. But I read the whole thing, and when there wasn’t a joke, I didn’t mind. T’was a beautiful journey. Definitely wasn’t for nothing, for me.

                Yeah it was ok, I was just hoping for a little joke at the end like something norm macdonald would’ve told 😅

              If you got nothing out of the comic, that’s very sad for you.

                Not really, it’s just stating the obvious, and her boyfriend sounds like a moron 😅, but if she enjoys his shower thoughts that’s nice for her.

          I think the punchline is that she can be distracted from an existential moment by something as simple as chicken nuggets because they are exactly the kind of simple pleasure thst makes her life with her partner worth living. I think it’s rather sweet.

        Ah I see, makes sense. And kinda criticizing society for judging based on stereotypes, right?

      Even someone who has achieved modern Zen mastery can still get excited about chicken fingers.

      You’re not a tiny speck in a vast uncaring universe.

      You’re a person caught up in weave of the giant sweater that is our reality.

      Enjoy the simple pleasures of life. And take some time to stare up at that great big universe that we’re all part of.

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

Rules
  1. 😇 Be Nice!

    • Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
  2. 🏘️ Community Standards

    • Comics should be a full story, from start to finish, in one post.
    • Posts should be safe and enjoyable by the majority of community members, both here on lemmy.world and other instances.
    • Any comic that would qualify as raunchy, lewd, or otherwise draw unwanted attention by nosy coworkers, spouses, or family members should be tagged as NSFW.
    • Moderators have final say on what and what does not qualify as appropriate. Use common sense, and if need be, err on the side of caution.
  3. 🧬 Keep it Real

    • Comics should be made and posted by real human beans, not by automated means like bots or AI. This is not the community for that sort of thing.
  4. 📽️ Credit Where Credit is Due

    • Comics should include the original attribution to the artist(s) involved, and be unmodified. Bonus points if you include a link back to their website. When in doubt, use a reverse image search to try to find the original version. Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanently banned from posting.
    • Attributions include, but are not limited to, watermarks, links, or other text or imagery that artists add to their comics to use for identification purposes. If you find a comic without any such markings, it would be a good idea to see if you can find an original version. If one cannot be found, say so and ask the community for help!
  5. 📋 Post Formatting

    • Post an image, gallery, or link to a specific comic hosted on another site; e.g., the author’s website.
    • Meta posts about the community should be tagged with [Meta] either at the beginning or the end of the post title.
    • When linking to a comic hosted on another site, ensure the link is to the comic itself and not just to the website; e.g.,
      ✅ Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
      ❌ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
  6. 📬 Post Frequency/SPAM

    • Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 🖐) comics a day. This can be any combination of personal comics you have written yourself, or other author’s comics. Any comics exceeding five (5 🖐) will be removed.
  7. 🏴‍☠️ Internationalization (i18n)

    • Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
      Sí, por favor [Spanish/Español]
  8. 🍿 Moderation

    • We are human, just like most everybody else on Lemmy. If you feel a moderation decision was made in error, you are welcome to reach out to anybody on the moderation team for clarification. Keep in mind that moderation decisions may be final.
    • When reporting posts and/or comments, quote which rule is being broken, and why you feel it broke the rules.
Banned Artists

The following artists are banned from the community.

  1. Jago
  2. Stonetoss
  3. GPrime85

It should be noted that when you make reports, it is your responsibility to provide rational reasoning why something should be removed. Saying it simply breaks community rules is not always good enough.

Web Accessibility

Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.

When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you’re posting:

  • Markdown - Links / Images

Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what’s going on. (example)
