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.

and the real monster of the film was the idea of "the nothing" ... there is nothing more freaky of an idea to a child than to suggest to them that there could be an absolute, all consuming, eternal "nothing" ... to some people, it was a thought worse than death itself. As a kid who didn't understand how to process philosophical ideas or even begin to fathom them, it was a terribly scary thought. Not that I understand complex philosophical ideas as a grown adult, I still don't understand lots today ... but as a kid who had no clue or guide to any of this, it was like being taken to a desert, dropped off alone and told to figure it out on your own.
I love that film and I loved the fact I saw it as an unaware kid when I was young .... it sparked so many ideas and thoughts in my life that affected me in positive ways ever since.
Wow. What did Seinfeld do to you?
