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.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Cat chooses you.
One time, I was putting in my window air conditioner on a Memorial Day weekend. Air conditioner is crooked, I'm annoyed.
I'm in shorts and sandals, and I feel something... fuzzy... brush past my ankles. I look down, there's nothing there.
I go back to contemplating the crookedness of my air conditioner. About the time I'm realizing my air conditioner is level but my cheapskate apartment's window is crooked, I feel that... fuzzyness... across my ankles again.
I look down and this time there is this T I N Y grey-stripey kitten staring up at me. Looking at me like "you're my human now, kay?" So of course I scooped him up, and he immediately set to purring.
That was it. I had a cat now. He lived to be like 13 and grew up to be fucking enormous. Never overweight, just goddamn huge. Used to sleep on my feet every night... like a rock.
