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.

In other words:
Although honestly, this becomes harder to apply every day.
Any sufficiently advanced stupidity is indistinguishable from malice.
Things get much harder to justify this way when you account for how easily malice can manufacturer stupidity for malice to hide in.
And how easily stupidity nurtures hollow, fetid wounds for new malice to grow.
Consider your wisdom stolen with the intent to reproduce, good sir and/or ma’am.
That's my favorite Isaak C. Clark quote.
/S
And any sufficiently depraved malice is indistinguishable from stupidity.
There's way too much malice in the world to rely on pithy witticisms too heavily.
You can always explain reality with that quote, you just have to realize you've been an optimist in your definition of stupidity.
