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.

Organizing books by color with no regard for book series is insanity.
My ex-partner had her bookshelf sorted with "perfect disorder". No two tall books touching, no two red books touching. As chaotic as a bookshelf could possibly be, with a pointed disregard for series or even genres. 100% vibes Based disorganization.
I hated that fucking shelf. I swear it nearly gave me an aneurism trying to find anything on it.
At least it had
A E S T H E R I C S
I swear that's a hard math tesselation problem
I'd guess, it's a variation of this problem: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_color_theorem
It makes perfect sense to people who don't need to find a book because they don't actually read.
As I said: insanity
Or people who know what colour their books (so can find them when they need) are and also want their bookshelf to look nice
Found the insane person.
Opinion:
I think bookshelves look better when they're full of books that are clearly being used, rather than a sterile layout that implies those books are nothing more than decor.
It's extraordinarily un-OCD. I think that's the point here. People seem to have forgotten what the D stands for in OCD.
Not being a total slob doesn't mean you have a disorder.
