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.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I haven't found the symbols to be an issue, but the majority of my waste with a recycling triangle are "trash" numbers (6/7, then 4/5, now even 3s are excluded here) or borderline lying (numberless plastic bags making it seem like they can go in with my bottles, or making it seem like it's my fault I haven't sought out a bag collection station). It should be fine to have the numbers marked clearly but the acceptability is neither clear nor standardized.
Special shout out to food containers predominantly being 5s and the adorable recycling triangle on greasy pizza boxes.
