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.

So, what's the business model here exactly? We've got the cost of rent, the upfront cost of excavating a gigantic bottomless pit the likes of which has never been seen before, the legal team to deal with lawsuits, the PR team to offset the negative press resulting from the pit, the maintenance costs of the building, replenishing the shopping carts, and of course advertising.
Actually yeah, seems doable.
Didn't you see the soda machine? That rakes in the money.
The soda machine is still $1. This both supports the operation and lures the unaware.
That’s just the built in business model of all of capitalism.
