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.

You severely underestimate how boring most people are.

I survived the pre-device world and socialized with people. Newspapers were shitty twitter, split into paragraphs on separate pages, without engagement and comments, magazines were expensive versions of the same but with pretty color pictures.

Pre-internet, people had 'areas of interest' so you could maybe learn about something they were passionate about (assuming they weren't wrong). Marriage was the real killer because all you ever got from your spouse what whatever they learned recently (gossip/news)

Now, people are sharing what they read on social media and some learn things all the time.

Most people don't learn.
