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.

I walked up a hill and hurt my hip a bit. Then I got excited and jumped around dancing later that night, and BAM. Hip has hurt for 4 days now (as in, hobble-walking), and considering my track record, will now hurt just slightly until I die and doctors will have no fucking idea why.

Doctors rarely have a clue about the why of anything. They respond to trigger words, fill out paperwork, and send you on your merry way.

I won’t even go for this, even if it continues to hurt, because I’ve learned this lesson.

Just do the dance in reverse

Unfortunately, it was a jump, so I think a reverse jump is just a jump, right?

I’ve definitely been doing a lot of those things since it happened. Much shuffling, tarrying, and slowing down. I just started back on working out today, but nothing with my hip. 😩
