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.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

My wife does this... During the movie. Doubly so if it's based on true events/people - scrolling through that wiki article as we go.
Or she just looks up the life story of every actor in it.
I can't help but do this myself. Otherwise it drives me mad if I can't remember where I know what guy from.
I really have been trying to work on my tolerance of such. My partner would always do that, Google the movie and look up characters and what not and then see spoilers continuously and when you know someone fairly well, you can read their reactions to things. So now that she knows Kenny is going to die, I end up figuring out Kenny is going to die. Twists, plot lines, all of it I don't want to know until I watch it. When I hear "oh I thought it was his best friend that died in spoiler" I just can't understand why you would read that before you watched it???
