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.

I hope this is a wakeup call.
I had this call when I turned 30, and spent a long couple of years to finally get my shit together. Im nearing 40, got a family, retirement fund and feeling like I see a finish line.
My buddy is the same age, and he's still living paycheck to paycheck with roommates and recently asked me what a IRA was. I'm pretty sure I'm his retirement.
You can see the finish line at nearing 40? Man that's a sad thought....what's the point of life if you can see the end already?
It only seems sad without comprehension, reading - specifically.
Thanks for your input.
