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.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I don't understand how people can afford it. Ive done it exactly once for a 4 day getaway for myself. It was like 1300 bucks for four days. I paid 2 months of their mortgage for a 4 night stay
That’s a damn cheap mortgage
I feel like AirBnBs just aren't for single travelers though. When you can rent a whole house that sleeps 4-8 people, that's when you can get things closer to $100-200 a night (or less), on par with hotel pricing. A group of travelers can also take advantage of the extra common space to hang out in, something you can't really do in a hotel. A single person probably doesn't care about being able to play board games out in the open concept living room/kitchen area, but that's a marketable feature for the group of 6 that are in town for a bachelorette party or whatever.
You picked a bad airbnb
