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.

I feel like "the customer is always right" is one of the most misused sayings out there... like, in spirit it's a reasonable reminder for sellers to not argue with the customer. But instead people take it as some proof of epistemic truth on the level as "they say that the Earth is flat. They're a customer, so the Earth is flat."
"Blood is thicker than water" is up there. The full saying is "the blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb" which means that family isn't the most import thing.
