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.

The message is nice, but "being nice" is straight up not a good way to achieve immortality. The people you've affected will remember you but one generation out and you're forgotten. And that assumes people ruminate on the kind acts they've experienced a lot.
The people we remember are mostly remembered for doing grand things. Maybe that's not a convenient truth, but it is true.
True... but also, turning an enemy into an ally is a very powerful strategy (and it works in reverse too).
Yeah, you have to burn a library or something.
