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…

I don't have a checkbook since I am not from the US

So you don't have to deposit an amount near your withdrawals? I'm curious about these places without overdraft fees. How far in the negative do they allow you to go?

Even without using a checkbook, I just got used to getting close to my limit. I deposit $100. I'd make a mental note that I spent $20 here, $50 there, and $25 at another place. Then I'd consider my money give, giving the transactions a few days to clear (back before things were so instant). Suck it banks, no overdraft fees this time!

Well we use cards here, mostly debit, if you try to pay for something or withdraw that's over what you have the transaction simply fails.

The US system is like living in cavemen times.

if you make a transaction for example through online banking and you don't have the money needed, it will sit there for a while waiting for money to arrive then it gets cancelled if money doesn't arrive in time.

None. None negative. They'll deny the transaction or NSF the check if there's not enough in the account to cover it.
