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.

I vaguely recall some college students making a suppressor for leaf blowers, and it was effective without significantly reducing power.
The electric ones are quiet and are as effective. Suburbanites shouldn't have access to the gas powered ones.
Edit: Downvoters don't understand how to live in a society.
My battery one is still loud and I find them sorta dumb, I prefer to rake and I use it to get into areas I can't rake.
I wouldn't be mad without them though. They're pretty annoying
Yeah, but is it as loud as a single cylinder 2 stroke?
Definitely not.
