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.

MODERATORS
Nobody buys or adopts cats. They just show up to your house one day expecting food, you feed it, and it sticks around.
Everyone knows that.
Just like coathangers
"I can't AFFORD to keep FEEDING all these COATHANGERS! There's so MANY!! What can I DO?!? AAAAAAA!!!!"
I thought coathangers fed themselves with one half of a pair of socks? I can't think of another explanation for the odd socks i keep ending up with.
It's washing machines and dryers that find socks delicious.
... which is less of a joke than you'd think. Small items can get partially forced between the rubber seal and the drum and then when the drum rotates, the item is slurped outside like a strand of spaghetti.
Also sometimes identical-looking socks that get paired together by the manufacturers eventually drift in appearance because they were from separate dye batches, leaving the owner with a pair of odd socks.
The other other explanation is the sock gnomes. We don't talk about the sock gnomes.
