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.

Millennial teacher here ('85). I have seen it two or three times maybe. But from people who just basically wanted to complain about everything.
I'm in utter disbelief whenever I hear this kind of comment. The young generation is fantastic, and I just hope they'll keep their resolve to revolt and Wil manage to avoid the traps our generations fell into.
Older people like me should never judge the young. We should either help them, root for them or apologize to them (what a world we welcome them in..).
The first sentence in your second paragraph, when you say, "utter disbelief", are you taking what I said as an insult towards the newer generation or are you referring to the OP comic strip? If so, I'm not trying to insult them at all. I'm a big fan as a whole, just minor fries from some bad actors that don't represent the generation, but happen to be a part of it.
Ah, no, not at all sorry. As you may have guessed, I'm not located on an English speaking country, so I may not phrase my thoughts well. My message was an echo to yours, I was referring to insults towards the newer generation in general. My starting point echoed yours : I rarely hear those, but when I do, this utter disbelief kicks in. I hope that clarifies my point!
