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.

a) "Because when I pick, you always say no."
b) "Because even if I could read your mind, I'd still not be able to figure out what you want."
c) i) One time soon, don't even get to the point of this conversation. Just make or order two of something you can both eat. Plonk a serving of it in front of them. "I don't want this." "You hate being the one to choose, so tonight I chose for you. Tomorrow's your turn."
c) ii) Make/buy something you want for you and something you know they can eat for them. Conversation as above.
c) iii) Make/buy two things they can eat. One for you, one for them. Offer a swap if they don't want the one you give them. Conversation runs differently. They can make a last-minute decision after all.
d) Not sure this one will work in your situation: Grab menus from local take-outs and restaurants, even ones from places that make things you usually make at home. Maybe write your own home menu. Present your partner with this stack of menus in the order of your preference. You'll only need to explain this one once if it's a habit worth forming.
e to z) Some combination or variation of the above. Adjust sensitivity levels accordingly.
