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.

*What it looks like
Or "How it looks"
It's just disturbing how most people are dumb enough to never understand this, it's such a common mistake.
consider that perhaps language may be flexible
Yeah but there are also norms.
Could you say "Merry Birthday!" Sure. Should you though?
Same thing here. It works. It just feels off.
I recently learned that this is actually used in the UK.
it feels off, to you. it feels fine to me. does that make me dumb or am I just a different person with different thoughts and feelings than you?
No you're dumb because you're different obviously /s
Doesn't make you dumb, but it could make you seem dumb like pronouncing the "L" in salmon.
might start doing that just for fun
Sometimes it bloesn't to be.
That's "yes you're totally right" in my new made up language and if you call it the obviously dumb crap it is, it's because you're inflexible
buddy are you 14 or something because that's weak
Thank you for addressing this.
