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.

Honestly, best advertisement for the imperial system. With metric you hit 38°C and it’s like “damn, now I feel like shit”, but with Fahrenheit it’s like “Wahoo baby! I did it, I 100 percented the thermometer 🥳🎉🎉🍾 (I still feel like shit)”
Oh, it gets MORE fun above 100. I had mono as a teenager and was lying in bed hallucinating soldiers asking me for directions and calling me Sarge. I think I was at 104.1 at that point.
Get back in the field, Sergeant! Your platoon needs you
40 is bad, 42 is when shit starts to happen and 44 is when permanent brain damage starts. I don't know the equivalent freedom units for these, but it's something burned in my memory after caring for someone sick. I guess it's the same for other people: whatever unit you were using when you were responsible for a life is what sticks.
