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.

PSA: Chiropractors aren't doctors, they aren't better than any other "alternative" healer and at worse are conmen and can fuck you up permanently. Don't ever go to chiropractors.
No they can't "fuck you up permanently" that is just conspiracy nonsense. Their malpractice is the lowest of any that practice medicine. Why? Because it's minimally invasive and nowhere near as dangerous as a medical doctor incorrectly prescribing the wrong medication. Many countries also require lengthy degrees for Chiropractic of 5yrs, which includes some similar studies of a regular medical doctor (so that they know what not to try to handle and refer out). And a lot of the spinal manipulation techniques are being adopted today by physical therapists because they see the scientifically based advantages. Stop spreading disinformation.
They regularly kill and paralyze patients... Look it up.
I told this to a friend of mine who swear his quackosnapper is the best of all quackosnappers, and he says "ya well doctors kill people too!" And Im like, yeah but Id rather die for a treatment I needed to save my life than to die for a completely unnecessary "treatment" which wouldn't have done anything.
He went pretty quiet after that.
People tend to return to Chiropractors each month for "adjustments", where as because physios are science based they tend to actually solve issues and remove the need to return.
Glad it sounds like you helped your friend escape.
