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…

Every so often I tell my pets, who are no longer with us, that I still love them and always will.

One of my cats had two little plush toys she loved cuddling with. She was cremated with one, and I keep the other on my desk - it's a nice reminder to just how awesome she was.

On my very sad days I just try to remember that they wouldn't want me to be sad. They would do everything in their power to make me feel better when I was feeling low, and the thought that my dishevelled state would cause them such grief if they were here is enough to make me have a better perspective.
It is okay to cry when it's needed too, though.

God fucking dammit, that was my dog's name.

Two fucking years without her, and I still can't fucking see the name without crying.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 hours ago

I just said my pets name out loud.

Decades don't matter.

But soon we join the true sleep.

Hey.

HEY YOU

FUCK YOU

I was having a perfectly good day...

[–] [email protected] 9 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Miles O'brien having a perfect day? I doubt that.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

All things being relative, of course.

I haven't even been tortured yet!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 14 hours ago

How many Rumplestiltskins though?

My cat Luna died five years ago next week. She was the best cat that ever existed and there’s still a hole in my heart.

:(

[–] [email protected] 11 points 16 hours ago

Grief is love.

And since she was loved, she had a good life.

So don’t just weep that she’s gone, but also remember to smile for all the good times you had together.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 18 hours ago

I know it sucks and I k ow this can be annoying to hear but you were very lucky to have Luna and should feel thankful more than sad. But it's okay to be sad too. Sending you some good energy. I'm going to be torn apart when my cat Goobers time is up.

[–] pugsnroses77 49 points 21 hours ago

[–] [email protected] 39 points 21 hours ago

Fuck man, don't throw a grenade into the room without warning

[–] [email protected] 12 points 18 hours ago

Dude stop

[–] [email protected] 12 points 16 hours ago

This hurts my heart.

I'm not a spiritual dude really, but went out a walk along my old dog's favourite route today, from back when he was alive, and there were times I swear I could feel his presence. He was a really good boy.

[–] iAmTheTot 49 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

This one isn't depressing to me. Like yeah, sad for the dog, but it's actually a kinda uplifting message. The "second death" thing is actually something gives me comfort.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

It is.

GNU Terry Pratchett.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 13 hours ago

GNU’s Not Unix Terry Pratchett?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah. It would have been depressing if the name was only on the tattoo and he was saying the wrong name. Maybe make him old as well to imply dementia. Hell, make it a cat tattoo and have him specify "You weren't a good boy, but the best boy" to imply a dog and really drive it home.

I dunno. Just spitballin'. But I agree, as it stands, it's more sentimental than sad.

Cyanide&happiness: write that down, write that down!

[–] [email protected] 16 points 18 hours ago

I am immortal

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 hours ago

She's Misty the flying pup...

She came from the puppy... Shup...

😭

[–] [email protected] 17 points 19 hours ago

This one hurts a lot. I'm gonna go cuddle my Luna Bear now

[–] Hideakikarate 12 points 21 hours ago

I buried one of my dogs a few weeks ago and this hits harder than it would've a month ago.

[–] humblebun 1 points 12 hours ago

Move on, you miserable piece of shit

It's me, who's miserable tbh

[–] [email protected] 9 points 22 hours ago (3 children)

I'm not sure I get it.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

The dog died but the owner keeps them alive in their thoughts.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 21 hours ago (3 children)

That's not as depressing as one would expect from Cynide & Happiness.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 18 hours ago

Tbf the other comics are edgy to a point where it becomes funny. I’ve been expecting some outrageous twist in the last panel, but he’s just missing his dog. So yeah this is an unexpected 10/10 and kick you right in the feels because it makes you remember names. Well played sir cyanide&happiness

[–] [email protected] 1 points 15 hours ago

Maybe his dog actually died?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 18 hours ago

Have you had a dog die recently?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

It’s based on a quote from Terry Pratchett’s Reaper Man.

No-one is finally dead until the ripples they cause in the world die away, until the clock wound up winds down, until the wine they made has finished its ferment, until the crop they planted is harvested. The span of someone’s life is only the core of their actual existence.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

How can you be so sure this is a Pratchett quote? The same phrasing and paraphrased versions were used by so many people. From Hemingway to Marcus Aurelius and I think even further back to ancient Egypt. I’m always baffled when people so easily and confidently state things as fact, like you…

[–] [email protected] 5 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

I was actually the first one to say it thousands of years ago. Pleased to meet you. Hope you guessed my name.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 hours ago

Nobody can guess your name which makes you truly dead.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

Not only eill the owner remember the name but every sexual partner will have the name Luna in their brain for a while and also the mortician will probably remember Luna for quite some time.

This is really a long play

So if you're unpopular and dying, public masturbatinon is beneficial. Good to know.
