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.

What's the joke? Is this supposed to be funny?

Violence against women, of course.

What’s the joke? Is this supposed to be funny?

Comic strips are not obligated to be funny to you - to appeal to your sense of humor.

It’s Not Just You: Garfield Is Not Meant to Be Funny

I believe you are broken. You actually took effort to try and shame someone's creative work. You could have continued your sad existence of just flipping to the next creation not of your making. But you stopped and thought, "Maybe I need to try and make someone as miserable as me."

I find that kind of funny, and kind of sad. Not as funny as this comic though. Which made me smile.

Imagine writing all that out and thinking you're actually dunking on someone lmao, you come off 10x more pathetic because now it looks like you're projecting.

The joke where the main character tells a joke that no one laughs at? I see why you'd relate to that.

Or was it when he told a woman he loved her, she said no, so he mudered her? I think finding that to be peak comedy is the sign of a broken person. Get a life.

I mentioned two jokes. Are you talking about the joke that is you, or the comic?

[–] electricyarn 3 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Where did you mention two jokes? What are you talking about?

[–] PiousAgnostic -4 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Not too bright, are you?

You are one joke. The comic is the other.

Lol, stay out of this. I enjoy being mean to mean people. What did my baby dick ever do to you?

[–] colderr 3 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Not liking some sort of comic strip doesn't mean that someone is mean. By that logic, if someone didn't like a certain song, are they mean to the person/people who made it? Or if they don't like a certain drink, are they mean to the company who made it?

Saying that awkward things and murder made you smile is more of a problem than OP not liking the comic strip.

No need to reply to this, because, I'm not going to reply to you beyond this point. But I recommend you read this and get the help you need.

Anyone trying to destroy other peoples joy is mean. A piece of art was created meant to spread laughter and smiles. Then mean people like you come around and shit on it.

Take your self-righteous attitude and stick it up deep inside you, and never comment back on this 😉. Because no one ever needed or wanted your first comment either.
