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.

Great example of why we shouldn't just blindly absorb memes. I'm not arguing on the side of the cartoon businessman here, but if the memesmith is talking about the US they're just plain wrong - unemployment is NOT "sky high" or even regular high. It's a little above the 50-year low we had a couple years ago, but it's below historical average. But if you don't already know that and can't be bothered to look it up, you're being led around by the nose. Brawndo is Brawndo, no matter who serves it up or why. Now go ahead and douchevote this like a good little trooper!
And no, I'm not trying to make everything be about America. It's somewhat implied by the red, white & blue and let's face it, most posts here are already about America.
