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 genuinely don't understand why that's so hard for Americans so say.
In revenge we invented Arkansas.
I love how Americans pronounce "Arkansas River" depending on whether they're in Arkansas or Kansas.
and Illinois.
I've heard illi noise so many times I've given up on correcting it.
It's not a common word for us and the phonetics don't match the pronunciation whatsoever.
if it's spelled worchestershire, I'm gonna pronounce it worchestershire.
I've been saying Worcestershire this whole time.

It's not hard at all. But due to the fact that stealing other people's words and aggressively mispronouncing them seems to be the official British pastime, I don't give a fuck how you pronounce it. I'll pronounce it how it's spelled, or any other way I damn well please.
There are more of us than there are of you. It's our language now, you're an anachronism.
