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'm middle aged now and I never lived in or near a big city ... always lived in small towns close to wilderness areas where I am most comfortable. I worked mostly as a labourer all my life ... seldom for a company and mostly in all that time for myself mainly. ... and I also have to admit during a time period where work and money was more available and within ones reach. Work was more plentiful and housing was more affordable.
It meant I had freedom of movement and freedom of time ... but it never meant freedom with money. I live within my means and I live very low key and I also don't have children so I only support myself and my wife. So we live in a modest house I bought for little and fix myself and own cars and trucks that are all used.
I can't imagine what it would be like to live in or near a city in this day in age ... I would probably not survive and just end up being one of those guys that know how to build a shelter in a dumpster and find food scraps from warehouses and restaurants.
