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.

Are people seriously out here killing moths?
Bastards.
You gnaw my suit, you get the boot.
Honestly, the small angular ones that lay larvae on clothing get swatted or electrocuted without a second thought. They fall into the mosquito category.
Everything else gets escorted outside or, if not feasible without risking harm, left to their own devices.
I'll admit I have a huge fear of moths ever since I was a kid. I wouldn't kill it, because I couldn't get close to it, but wouldn't cry either... :(
Fair. My cousin has a fear of moths. He once described encountering a moth at night:
"I could hear him, out in the hall, his whings beating. whooosh whoosh. I held my blanket tight, and waited for him to pass. And that's when the door swung open. CRASH I looked up from under the covers and screamed. AAAAAH"
I never did find out how he got rid of that moth.
I hope he didn't kill it.
