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.

There was a major deadline last sunday. 10 minutes past midnight, I got a mail from a student...
There have been too many fucking times where I worked on an assignment, finished it, forgot to submit and then didn't remember that until midnight. Ive made it with seconds to spare before but I've also missed it by tens of minutes. There was at least one time (that I can think of) where I got a zero for submitting single-digit amounts of minutes late before and the professor wasn't hearing any of it. I think it was either 12:03 or 12:05.
Deadlines are pretty important in the professional world. If you miss a hard deadline, at best you end up looking sloppy and unprofessional, at worst you've lost your company a couple million and you're about to be out of a job.
I'm an absolutely fantastic employee, at least, my performance reviews and bonuses support the image. I also have absolutely terrible anxiety about mundane deadlines. Some paperwork that takes 3 minutes might be put off for an extra day or two while I spend hours day and night on my actual responsibilities. It's an issue.
I don't remember writing this
