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.

Btw why is this. Why do i have to listen 10 times to a song before i start enjoying it? Some ofy favourite songs are ones that i didnt like for a while.
I'm sure it's some psychology name to it.
Thinking through it from my perspective, it's because we put up barriers with anything new.
First thought: "Does this fit with what I know this musician for?"
Second thought: "Does this hit the vibe or energy I want?"
Third thought: "What is the hook or thing that makes it memorable?"
If any of them fail, I immediately feel disgusted. Not to say I won't change my mind.
I posted this in a different comment thread on this post, but I would be interested to hear your perspective:
I think the thing with these hit songs is that they have a part of their lyrics that is very simple that everyone sings along to(even if incorrectly) and general sound of them is also so ordinary and simple that people get used to them fast. If you hear a song thats very different from everything else you ever heard you need time to get used to it but if you hear one of these you can relate it to something you already heard. Thats my two cents i guess.
Hmm, interesting. I'll have to consider other cases of this.
