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.

Every time I see it spelled that way, I die a little.
Remember that, unlike French and its steering organization, English is a "usage dictates form" kind of setup where the most popular usage drags the language down after it.
That's why people pluralize mass nouns and say things like "emails" as a noun, or join words to get "startup" as a verb, or say "literally" as if they know no other adverbs: someone popular said it like that and everyone is cloning that dialect glitch. They're making "fetch" happen.
So let's all do the needful, action that ask and synergize the spend.
Or we say no. We ridicule the people yammering like misfit kids of drunkard used-car salesmen, and we correct them, and we only address the content when the errors are fixed. Set the bar for discourse.
Slt, d'acc boomer
Guess you've never seen people text in french.
