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.

Its not a joke, its just a message, telling people that being happy doesnt have to rely on wealth and fancy stuff. That there is nothing wrong with being happy with a simple life.
Most disappointing punchline ever ๐
There is no punchline and there isnt supposed to be. Are you trolling?
I got where you were coming from :)
Nah, I got trolled by the comic: was expecting a punchline, so I read all that story for nothing.
I also expected a joke from a comic. But I read the whole thing, and when there wasn't a joke, I didn't mind. T'was a beautiful journey. Definitely wasn't for nothing, for me.
Yeah it was ok, I was just hoping for a little joke at the end like something norm macdonald would've told ๐
Norm isn't for me, but sure.
If you got nothing out of the comic, that's very sad for you.
Not really, it's just stating the obvious, and her boyfriend sounds like a moron ๐ , but if she enjoys his shower thoughts that's nice for her.
I genuinely pity you.
Don't judge a book by it's cover.
I think the punchline is that she can be distracted from an existential moment by something as simple as chicken nuggets because they are exactly the kind of simple pleasure thst makes her life with her partner worth living. I think it's rather sweet.
