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.

How to sound American tutorial
Nah, we pronunce them very differently here in the midwest. They sound as different as matter and madder.
I'm also in the Midwest (Indiana) and have the opposite experience.
They might not be perfect homophones but you're rarely using a full hard T sound. Usually something between a d and t sound.
Interesting... I'm from NJ and there's no audible difference between ladder and latter here, nor between madder and matter. However, my parents are both from different parts of NJ than where I was raised, and they do pronounce them differently!
America is big lol
A bit, yeah.
Alright, settle down
