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.

Feather on a string on a stick used to keep my cat in the 90s entertained for hours. Also laserpen. This was before we found out laserpens cause cats depression.
What?? Why? I thought cats love laserpens
I've been told it's because they never get the satisfaction of catching the dot.
oh that makes sense.
They do. They love them so much that they become obsessed with them. But the laserpen has no physical mass, meaning that the cats can't understand why they can never catch it. So they work even harder to catch it. But they can't. It's just a light beam.
So it's kind of like going hunting, and never getting the kill, despite the fact that you thought you killed it several times.
Because they can never catch it. There's no reward for a successful hunt.
