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…

PSA to those offended. Being fat is not okay. Big Pharma would love us all to be though so we can be riddled with disease for life. Literal cash “cows”. Trim up people so we can trim down pharmas draining of our pocketbooks.
Getting an infection also isn't okay, but you don't generally make fun of someone because they have one.
That's a nice argument, Senator. Why don't you back it up with a source?
Are you legitimately suggesting 99.9% of obese people are overweight because it's fun for them? Because that's what you just said.
I think we have very different definitions of what "choice" means. If you lack the ability to eat less, then you aren't choosing now are you?
Bruh, why are you acting incredulous when I read what you said back to you. You said that they lack the ability to stop eating. I didn't say that shit.
You also said that 99.9% of obese people choose to be that way. Again, you said, this, not me. So which is it? It can't be both. You have to pick one.
Either provide a fucking source or admit you just hate fat people.
What I'm suggesting is that the only food available to low-income households is high in fat and low in nutrients because that's what's cheapest to produce.
Unless you're about to suggest being poor is a lifestyle choice too I suggest you stop stuffing words in my mouth.
Calories aren't the problem. Nutrition is. No doubt you've heard it said that it's important to eat a balanced diet. If you can't afford to eat anything other than McDonald's, only eating two meals a day total instead of three is not going to put more greens in your diet. It's just going to make you hungrier.
Thank you for demonstrating my point. Eating less McDonald's won't make you healthier either. If you can't get a nutritious meal once in a while, you're not going to be healthy no matter how much or how little you eat or much you exercise.
Also microwave meals are a lot healthier (and a lot more epensive) than McDonald's.

Seriously though, I don't think the latest studies on psychology back that up. I recommend anyone interested look into it. Fascinating stuff
What if they have an infection because they refuse to wear a mask during a global pandemic while also refusing to get vaccinated?
Yeah this doesn't work at all. Being obese is 100% on the person. Anyone who doesn't want to be obese can be with effort, but it is far easier to just be obese.
[CITATION NEEDED]
Those predecessors to an infection aren’t comparable to the gradual onset of obesity. I believe we should all be able to laugh, even at ourselves. This doesn’t single anyone out for ridicule.
I'd mostly agree. People can't seem to wrap their heads around the fact that being fat can increase the likelihood of all kinds of nasty things like heightened blood pressure, difficulty breathing, difficulty moving, mental health problems, and a whole lot of other things.
It's one thing to be fat, and it's another thing to not try to change that. Good thing that facts don't care about feelings.
Omegalul imagine downvoting facts.
