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 dad did the exact opposite of this when he had a Corvette. Some guys pulled up to the stop light, got him to roll his window down, and said, "Hey man, want to race?"

His reply. "Why?"

It's like asking someone with running shoes if he wants to run...

You fell victim to one of the classic blunders, the most famous of which is "Never get involved in a land war in Asia," but only slightly less well-known is this: "Never go in against Tonya Harding when temporary clout is on the line."

I witnessed something kinda similar.

I was the passenger in an old beaten small panel van. The driver was a complete jackass, but I needed the lift. He pulled up next to an Alfa Romeo 159, and asked for a race. The driver of the Alfa just looked... confused. He gave us a very potent "I cannot sanction your buffoonery" look and rolled his window back up. My driver yelled at him. I sunk into my seat in an overwhelming combination of first and second hand embarrassment.
