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.

A girl complimented my fingernails 14 years ago and i still think about that day
Remember: you can give a compliment today, and it cost you nothing but a moment of your time.
Me in 4th grade to girl: "You have nice hair."
Girl: "Shut up"
Me: "Welp, I'm never trying that again."
And encouragement like this is how I got the creepiest comment of my life.
Me: at the time 15 years old. Just got on public transportation bus and took a seat.
Guy: probably in his 60s or 70s. Imagine Edgar from Men in Black when in human form. Now imagine the thickest southern drawl accient imaginable.
Now I sit down, and he leans in about 2 inches from my face, and even though I back away, he just leans in further to maintain closeness. I am in this moment EXTREMELY uncomfortable as he says:
Naw look at'chu! Ya'll got purdy skiiiiin! You use some cream and moisturizer???"
Keep in mind, I'm a guy. It's the 90s. Guys didn't use creams or moisturizer back then. I personally still don't. Now, granted, my skin is still naturally soft, even as I'm 41, and if I dye my hair and shave, I still look 20. So....I'm not saying he was wrong. But that "compliment" remains one of the weirdest things someone has ever said to me.
Didn't realize it was depressing comic week.
