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.

Anybody remember the Malcolm in the Middle episode where Reese joined a dog pack and started acting like a dog? The mailman showed up and Reese went to the window and started shouting, "Who are you? You don't live here?! Go away! Go! Go! Go!" Exactly like a barking dog. I think all those kids were underappreciated as actors. Although they're each worth like $10 million now. So okay, happy ending.

Obligatory clip

Thanks! I was remembering it wrong as "Go!" but 'What!" is a lot better.

I have a dog and a five year old. The dog will, indeed, engage with the mail person; he won't bark, but he'll stand at the window and kind of huff.

One time, he did so and my child also ran over to the window, asking something like "who is that?!" I jokingly suggested that the kid could help the dog to defend the property.

Since then, whenever the kid notices anyone unexpected on the porch, they run to the window going "huff! Huff!" I haven't seen any delivery people react yet, but I have to wonder what they think.
