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'd definitely go with the ability to know anything past, present, or future.
I'm not sure if that will joyfully co-exist with happiness.
Yeah, enjoy every movie, TV show, joke, and surprise being ruined forever. Better to have wisdom than knowledge.
Also, wisdom will probably make you realize you should have just wished to be lucky.
It would, because you'd be able to choose what information you knew. I'd go straight to solving cold fusion.
Would that include forgetting information you already knew and didn't want to know anymore?
It would need to. Because sometimes you would find out the truth of something and that truth would be very, very ugly. Like finding out that Mr. Rogers behind the scenes was actually a huge racist (he wasn't).
Kefitzat Haderech. Done.
