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.

At this point I believe that there was an advanced civilization 20,000 years ago .... then they devolved into an absolutely stupid culture of people that didn't care about reading or writing any more that they could only communicate by drawing simple stick figures and line animals on a cave wall.

Then they all evolved again to become us.

And we are continuing the cycle by dumbing ourselves down to the point where cave paintings will become meaningful to us again and we can repeat the cycle.

If you haven't read the later books in the HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy series, at one point it's revealed that an ancient spacefaring society gathered up the most useless people they had (I think it was ad copy writers, telephone sanitizers, and hair stylists), shoved them in long haul spacecraft designed to crash land and destroy themselves entirely while safely delivering the passengers, disabled all internal controls, and pointed the craft at ancient earth.

They unfortunately outbred the native neanderthals. This also completely broke the earth's original purpose of being a giant biocomputer.
