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.

Okay I feel like being a little pedantic. Goats don't eat metal. Goats are actually very selective eaters. They can eat a wide diet but only eat the best first. The can thing mostly comes from back when labels were put on with gelatine based glues. Goats would chew on the can to get the glue off.
Interestingly enough cows will eat metal. Not intently but cows are not good at being selective eaters so if it ends up in their mouth it is usually eaten regardless if the cow wants to or not. This leads to a condition called hardware disease, where metal collects in the cows stomach specifically the reticulum. This can lead to the stomach being punctured and the cow dying from sepsis.
