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.

It's a surprisingly useless skill in the modern day if you have a digital watch. Most people just use their phone or a smart watch and those show time with plain digits so there's no interpretation. I forgot how to read an analogue clock face for the longest time, bought a classic watch recently and have picked up the skill again but if I didn't then I'd never use it and I'd forget it again. Despite what some people think not all skills are unforgettable, it's just a matter of how useful it is day to day over a long period.
