A community for comic lovers who just want to get away from politics and gloom and doom.

Rule 1 - Be civil.
Rule 2 - Don't be uncivil.

Posting guidelines:

No political comics. This generally includes anything referencing whatever bullshit Trump is up to, but also includes the megacorps. Essentially if the comic is about how the world today sucks, it doesn't belong here.
Where possible, tag the title with [comic name]. This refers to the name of the artist or overall comic, not the title of the specific strip.
Tag NSFW / NSFL / AI content accordingly.

"jod" was clearly meant to be humorous, and the delivery was perfect. "Jift" was either an attempt at a real argument, or else it was piggybacking on the previous joke making it unoriginal in addition to poorly delivered.

Also, how do you pronounce giraffe?

Like, as in "jiraffe" or are you literally saying "guh-raffe"?

That still doesn't tell me whether you're using a soft g or a hard g

At this point only IPA can help, only it uses the same symbol, smh: ɡɪˈrɑːf

Edit: it looks like monospace doesn't render IPA properly: ɡɪˈrɑːf
