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.

Women Vs world? Women Vs Woo? Women Vs work? Women Vs wonder?
Cause the "wom" sequence would be...
Women Vs Womb?
Women Vs Wombat?
The arguement is obviously nonsense.
It's going into syntax of words to get pronunciation, instead the acronym/name.
Which is funny, because that's exactly what's happening in the gif/jif argument.
Not sure what you're trying to say, but not a single one of those words pronounce the "wo" like it is in "women."
It seems to be closest to the i in fish -- hence the fun alternate spelling of photi
Ghoti is better (using the "gh" in "enough"), and yep.
Womb and women are pronounced the same (well, except the ending).
Unless it's a local dialect thing where "women" is pronounced "wimin"?
Nobody I've ever heard pronounces it "woo-min", only "wimmin." Definitely not a local dialect.
Well, if you heard me, I pronounce "women" like "womb".
Maybe I have the local dialect.
Are you from PNW? I think I remember a video from reddit where someone said woo-min and a commenter said they're from there and say it like that.
