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.

It's not stupid, it's deliberate. I had a friend who did consulting work (in a different area) with a large grocery chain, and they deliberately change the layout so you're spending more time in the store, looking at things, because chances are that you'll buy more. If the store becomes a little too crowded, they'll just change the music to hurry you along.
Exactly. There’s nothing - almost nothing maybe - in larger stores or chains that is not designed to make you buy things. Even the way through, Ikea is obviously god emperor there but other follow closely.
At first, when Ikea finally came to where I live, I thought that was a cool way to keep traffic flowing and the stress level low. $600 later, after only planning to buy a couple pillows, I realized why the stores are layed out like that.
