It's too bad they don't work in an office with a more supportive environment. I've worked in that kind of office before, where nobody ever asks how your anus is doing, and let me tell you, it can hurt pretty bad, especially if you're not used to it.

[-] Bhaelfur@lemmy.world 38 points 2 months ago

For the love of God and all that is holy, my anus is bleeding!

[-] FoxyFerengi@startrek.website 16 points 2 months ago

This is what happens when your spoon is too big

[-] sol6_vi@lemmy.makearmy.io 3 points 2 months ago

For the love of god and all things holy!!!

[-] backalleycoyote@lemmy.today 11 points 2 months ago

Everyone always asks “how is your anus” but nobody’s asking “why is your anus”.

[-] finallymadeanaccount@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

"I'll do you one better: Who is your anus?!"

Why are you not used to your anus? Is it new?

[-] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 months ago

They couldn't even get a copywriter to proof "hanged" over "hung", which is to be used when talking about the method of death.

[-] MajorMajormajormajor@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago

Maybe homeboy is hanging dong, and that's what they're referring to?

[-] finallymadeanaccount@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Like, his dong swung down, whipped around, and smacked him in the anus?

[-] swab148@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 months ago

Happens to the best of us

[-] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

I checked both AP and Chicago style guides

[-] jafra@slrpnk.net 5 points 2 months ago

Almost missed the second half🤣

[-] bizarroland@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Can you clarify what you mean by "it"?

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 45 points 2 months ago
[-] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 24 points 2 months ago

I did until Matt hung himself in my office.

Now I’m at my coffee limit.

[-] NeatNit@discuss.tchncs.de 30 points 2 months ago

Do they pour the coffee from one mug to the next for each sip, or are they drinking 3 coffees each just to hold a conversation?

[-] cRazi_man@europe.pub 3 points 2 months ago

I have mastered making 2 sips volume with an aeropress. I brew that volume into a new cup after every 2 sips.

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

mug to mouth to mug to mouth to mug and so on until cool enough to swallow all in one gulp without burning pony

[-] brsrklf@jlai.lu 27 points 2 months ago

I am baffled by the gamecube mug's lack of use.

[-] Zorque@lemmy.world 17 points 2 months ago

People would rather play GameCube now instead of later.

[-] brsrklf@jlai.lu 4 points 2 months ago

Reasonable.

Clearly it's so obvious people want to play on the GameCube, they don't need to use the mug to ask.

[-] FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Its in the front and is missing cobwebs, it might be used from time to time (but not often enough)

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

we're back onto N64. that conker nazi tediz multiplayer just kills

[-] finallymadeanaccount@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago

For some time, I've felt something was missing from my life. And then I saw this cartoon, and knew what it was!

There just aren't enough anus-related cups out there.

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

"have i got a surprise for you" said the dude with seven anuses

[-] Samsy@lemmy.ml 12 points 2 months ago

OK, now I want that "anus" - cup-collection.

[-] kryptonianCodeMonkey@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

"Buy the whole set. Your anus will thank you!" -One of the mugs in the anus set.

[-] Samsy@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 months ago

"I should stop drinking too much coffee, out of my anus mugs - collection" -Another mug of the set.

*hanged, not that it really matters

[-] whatsisface@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago

It doesn't really matter because hung is correct.

[-] pirc_lover@feddit.uk 10 points 2 months ago

No it isn’t

“The past tense of hang in almost all situations is hung. You hung a picture on the wall yesterday, or you hung out at the mall last week. Only use hanged when referring to someone who has been killed by hanging.”

  • Merriam Webster
[-] scutiger@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Hanged is specific to someone being killed by hanging, while hung is less specific, but still accurate. Some who hung themself may have done so by the leg, but unless specified it will be assumed that it is by the neck.

[-] SatyrSack@quokk.au 3 points 2 months ago

Yep. A square is both a square and a rectangle. Both are true.

[-] SystemDisc@piefed.world 1 points 2 months ago

Someone who is hanged is hung by the neck until death

[-] desra@slrpnk.net 5 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I had a boss named Matt who hung himself, was at his house tho. Wonder if there's a mug for that..

[-] Bilbo@hobbit.world 1 points 2 months ago

This is why cafepress exists.

[-] CrowAirbrush@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

So is the "nice job Matt" a sarcastic reply to the "Matt hung himself in MY office" mug? Or were they actually hopeful for him doing something good?

[-] bizarroland@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

The fact that the cobwebs are on the, "Nice job Matt" mug implies that either Matt never did a good job or that Matt was never appreciated for the work that he did.

[-] tiramichu@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

This being a potentially contributory factor to why he hung himself.

[-] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago

The best part is, it's both sarcastic and also a neglected compliment.

Poor Matt.

[-] bridgeenjoyer@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago

OK this was original and damn funny

[-] johnefrancis@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

would love to read more of that. Website seems entirely broken. Not going to instance. Oh well.

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:

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)
