A great system until you smoke a bit of green plastic.
Comic Strips
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.

So a bit of a story because I think it's important to share what an older generation thought of these things.
I had an uncle, Vietnam vet, who was, as he described it, part of the 'freak' movement/ culture. It was a counter culture movement of the 60s and 70s, a kind of place to hold people who might not have been hippies, but roundly rejected "square" society. Think Cheech and Chong. Think Hunter S Thompson.
His turn of phrase was "let your freak flag fly", as in , do things to demonstrate to society you are not interested and do not seek their approval.
The setup is kinda funny but I found the punchline pretty meh
Better punchline: Something something ... our apartment has never been so clean!
Yeah that is better indeed
Or in the end after finding nothing:
Well now both we and the apartment are clean!
The cops raid the place with a similar device and find absolutely nothing.
gasp! They're addicted... to cleaning!
Jokes are hard.
I also liked the set up.
please please dig up some old politeness mans.
