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.

Hee hee. I feel like the one being sealioned most of the time. It doesn't matter what I say, "I should like to have a reasonable debate about what you said. What proof do you have that this has ever happened, and if you don't say something I like I'll be back again to hound you about it until you validate me in a way that I sorely need."
Some people view every exchange on the internet as some sort of formal academic discourse, it's pretty weird. Can you imagine someone acting like that in person? You'd clearly tell them to fuck off, it's totally obnoxious.
Exactly. And some people view every post as some kind of assault on their own views or values. It makes me reluctant to post anything that may be quite radical or a unique take on something, because no matter my intentions, someone takes umbridge at it (and they really shouldn't, we need the wood).
Anyway - I don't mean to step on anyone's sacred cow when I post things, I'm just trying to bring a new slant or point of view most of the time. I'm fine with someone saying "I disagree, and here's why." I'm not fine with people saying, "I disagree because you're a stupid idiot."
