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!

I get more people saying to me “wow you’re very tall” to which I respond with “yes and you are very observant” which I feel is funny in the moment but is just condescending enough to make them realize it later on.
What sometimes bothers me is constantly getting asked to reach for something high because I'm tall. My Wife has always been good at that despite all the step stools we have around the house for her.
I reached a point where I now ask her to pick things up off the floor because she's shorter than me, (she's 5'3" I'm 6'4"). Making her closer to the ground.
Honestly, I am unoffended by that dynamic in my house. Our difference isn't as great - my 5'5" to his 6'2" - but I just laugh and tell him to move when he tries to scrunch down to get things, and I sigh loudly and stare at him while stretching my arm up if I don't want to climb for high things. We're goofy like that, though, neither of us take it seriously and he teases me right back.
Got any more tips? I just kind of laugh it off and say yeah...guess so. Or nope too clumsy for basketball lol.
How's the weather up there is most annoying and I never know what to respond for that. Think I just glare lol
You could always fart and say "a lot better than it's about to be down there"
A funnier response for more social occasions that I bust out is “thanks, I practice everyday”. Usually gets a laugh
I respond "no im not. are you okay?"
