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.

Wow, what year is that picture from, McDonald's with a playplace?! We wish things were as nice as they were then
Kids these days will never get to experience the bliss of wading through a pit of plastic balls that all smell vaguely of piss.
I make floor pads for the company that builds the playlands. They still exist, in Canada at least. I sent a whole bunch to Puerto Rico after the hurricane, but they were for Burger King.
I've heard of these things from a documentary from that era called Mac and Me. I think they also routinely held something called a "birthday party" at them. Unfortunately there are no physical records to confirm that I am aware of.
Norm?
