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? That’s exactly what the text is implying?
The last panel is literally the doctor saying ‘I cannot give your son stitches because they did not snitch’
Yes but imho that is funny.
"snitches get stitches" mean "if you snitch you will get stitches".
On the last panel the doctor says "if and only if you snitch you will get stitches" which is completely different and thus an humoristic subversion of expectations.
(note that I'm not the final judge of what's funny and what's not. Kamel Debbiche is)
