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.

"You mean you can just BUY them?"
I work for a lot of older people, and it's often hilarious to listen to them complain about young people. This month i was at some ladies home, she said that people just don't want to work these days. She then told me that she always had to work, if she didn't have work, she was ironing clothes for random people to make money.
Wow that's interesting. You and your husband (a guy working in construction, doing odd jobs) were able to buy a house and have two children, while compared to today not even having real jobs at 25? That sounds horrible. I have a job for 21 years now, there wasn't a day that i didn't have a job, no children. The only reason i have a house at 40 is because it was dirt cheap and i renovated everything myself.
