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 don't want to seem like a prick, but all the Internet comics I see are so lazy and devoid of any humour... there's no joke in them at all, and just seems like someone who wants to post a bland message to get their "comic strip" seen. Is this Calvin and hobbes quality? No. Is there anything groundbreaking and funny? Nope. I just want lemmy to actually have some good stuff on it
Well you kinda failed.
You are entirely capable of posting material.
The situation presented in the comic is true, but you have to admit that this is the millennial equivalent of a boomer comic.
I have to admit nothing and, in fact, I disagree with you.
That's the thing about opinions, they're subjective. You are not the arbiter of the funny. Don't mistake yourself for such.
"You have to admit" is a very common figure of speech.
I'm sorry that made you think I was going to come to your house and beat you up if you disagreed with me.
You should probably take this hyperbolic and over-reactive garbage back to Reddit where it belongs.
lol you call me hyperbolic after your "arbiter of the funny" comment?
Here, I'll say what I guess I should have said instead of trying to make a joke: you're allowed to have an opinion but other people are allowed to have one too. People posting differing opinions in a comment section that reflect their own subjective perspectives is what comment sections are for. And yes that includes comments like "I don't like posts like this and I think we should try to have less of them". Nobody is censoring you or acting as an "arbiter" by voicing that perspective; and, in fact, there's nothing I or anyone else you were arguing with could do to that effect.
