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…

aka sub-prime lending. this sort of thing has happened before, "buying on margin" in the 1920s, for the stock market. it didnt end well then either.
the way that laws work is that if you sign a contract, it's legally binding - so if you take out a giant loan to buy a house & cant make the mortgage payments, you're out of house and you're liable to pay back the loan. you gotta read the fine print before you sign anything.
Dude, there was a systemic failure, the banks were deregulated, then the rating agencies misrated loans to keep making money.
Blaming individuals for "not reading the fine print" is just another form of bootlicking/victim blaming
the truth is the truth, even if you dont like it.
Yeah man, it's the average Joe who's wrong, and the corporate banking investors who are right. Good and normal take lol
