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!

It is not a US thing I can assure you. You get bios from some women's in dating apps stating "what do you call a man under 6'0"? A friend."
As if that's going to stop me from swiping right!
You don't see how actually using feet as the measurement already signifies just how American it is?
Most people in my country don't even have an idea on how much 6ft is.
The average height here is ~180, which translates as 5"11'.
I have literally never in my life known a person who had 182cm as an arbitrary height limit for guys. Actually, I've not seen any type of height limits basically, aside from a few girls having the criteria of "I would prefer to date someone at least as tall as me."
Americans are a nation of short kings, lol.
Canada exists.
Where I live, we only use metric for height, pizza size and dick size lol.
You are lucky to not be surrounded by shallow people, I suppose.
No no, a lot of them are extremely shallow.
Just not about height.
Like I'm sure no-one around you considers someone showing their ankle or elbow to be indecent, but you know a lot of people used to. Or I mean I don't know where you live, you might live in a country where that still applies, but I don't think it's likely.
Back then ankles and elbows were inherently sexy because of the taboo. For some reason height is sexy for Americans, but people just don't focus as much on it in some cultures I guess
