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.

My butt does hurt.
There seems to be this new trend of accounts being created to post this low quality rage bate and other boomer humour at best in this community. This is either a bot, or a really bored loser, either way, the pattern is very obvious (new account that posts 3 comics in a row here and nothing else), and easy to spot and block.
I know this will have little impact, but do yourselves a favour - don't feed the troll.
If they post 3 posts in a row and nothing else, why bother blocking? By the time you see it, it's already over.

im not offended by this but it itself is not funny. It feels like more of a meme than a comic.
Certainly can’t say it’s a knee slapper
Social commentary cartoon that probably drives more discussion than laughs - not opposed to a range that includes a healthy mixture of everything from cheap laughs to this
yeah. now that I think of it thats pretty much what most political cartoons are. those ones in the comments sections with elephants and donkey. so I was likely being to harsh. its like not a comics section comic but obviously it is a comic. you know I never thought before how memes or at least political ones are so much like political cartoons.
I've blocked just about every political community because the memes, despite me agreeing with them, are all horrendously unfunny
I get that. I have pretty much been blocking anything meme related but man new ones spring up constantly or it feels that way. I swear some of them are practically just for one person to get their memes of their chest.
How is this not a comic? You need to learn how to take a comic
see thats the thing. I usually don't really need to take a comic. its funny or at least amusing. this just feels like bitching.
"Take a comic" isn't a real expression, they are doing a joke where they have paraphrased the second panel.

The thing that gets me every time is actually being funny gets shot in the head instantly in the cross fire.
I was in the gym two days ago. It was leg day. My butt actually hurts :(
What episode of the Twilight Zone is this?
It de-legitimizes actual debate about issues with racism, homophobia, sexism, etc
When you just lump in everything that is legitimate debate along with batshit crazy stuff, then its far easier to just to dismiss it all and keep acting like a racist, homophobic, sexist ignorant jerk.
If you can't tell what is offensive and what isn't ... it's not a problem with the comic, it might have something more to do with you.

Imo, anyone that seems to routinely complain about people "taking things too seriously" with their edgy jokes tend to rely more on shock value than actual comedy...
Y'all aren't teenagers any more. Using slurs isn't funny any more.
The same can be said for a lot of people who complain about lots of things being offensive.
In reality you should seek a middle ground, don't take everything so seriously that it ruins the joy in life... but also don't treat everything (and everyone) as a joke.

i feel like i need to know the authors political leanings before i upvote this comic... yet i think that might be part of the authors message
Who dis m8
Pundit from the film Starship Troopers used as a patsy to forward state propaganda.
It looks like Elijah Wood's brother who was kept locked in the attic all these years.
This reminds me of people who comment, say on video clips of older movies and television, "you can't make stuff like this anymore." Just an unhelpful take on the situation. One that takes no effort to come by. Regurgitation at best.
You can't make stuff like this anymore.
it's not that you "can't make" it.. you can make whatever tv or film you want to. it's that you'd have a hard time selling it in the current time.
