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.

Slow and courteous is great, but I can't stand it when people break common road rules to be courteous. That becomes confusing and dangerous.
Don't be polite: be predictable.
Don't wave that other person through the intersection when it's your turn, it just creates confusion. Go through like you are supposed to.
Don't slow down to let the yeilding traffic in. They are supposed to YEILD TO YOU.
Yeah! Make those peasants yeild to your law enforced and god given right, to hell with being nice! /s
Yeah don't do wave another person through, that's just an accident waiting to happen
Absolutely! Behave as expected and everything will go better.
There's a thing called "the wave of death" where one driver stops in the middle of a road and waves for a pedestrian to cross, but the cars going the other way don't know this person just decided to do that, and the pedestrian has a false sense of safety from being waved across... Bad shit.
