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.

If you are about to finish high school and still dont know what to study in college but have the opportunity to go to college (I know many can't and that's ok). Study business administration and marketing; you'll either learn a skill you can apply in a corporate job, or you can use it to be trully successful opening your own business and being independent anywhere in the world.
This might be the worst advice i've ever seen.
Those degrees and art degrees are likely what meme refer to.
I really dont understand how knowing how to run a business, market a business, and know how to financially manage a business is bad advice. Please do explain, because at this point I'm either missing the obviouse or the internet is just daft (and no I don't mean that as a personal isult to you or anyone, I'm really just baffled)
Business administration and marketing aren’t bad skills to have. But the majors are flooded and neither are considered particularly difficult to achieve. If your intention is to stand out in the workforce, those will fail you.
I mean my main intention would be to use those skills to be successful in running my own business instead of going to an office, but like I said, only if I was offered to go to college paid for and I didnt know what to study (aka. Parents want kid to go to college no matter what).
