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.

My wife and I are stuck in a perpetual battle. Nothing ever sounds good to her, and everything sounds good to me.
Wife and I solved this by rule of 3. She gets to decide if she's suggesting options or making a choice. Whoever is suggesting options gives 3 choices. They must be something the other potentially likes. The other then either chooses one of the three or has to suggest 3 choices of their own. We rarely have to go past the original 3 options any more.
She tries to be like me. "I dont care, i just want you to pick."
Mexican? No. Indian? No. Italian? No. Sushi? No.
Oh so you do care. This is why you always pick. I will eat anything at any time.
Whenever I get through two options with this, I say, “Okay, you pick. I don’t really want to play this game. If you don’t want to pick I’ll make one of the first offers.”
So she just needs to throw out ideas, problem solved!
Jk I have this problem too. I want things riiiiiight up until they are on my plate ready to be eaten. Then I lose interest.
It’s worse with going to eat, because the work involved in cooking really cements me to eating that thing.
