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.

Having a few hours of the day where you went offline because you wanted to because either you couldn't find anything interesting, your downloads were going to take hours, your PC was down, the internet was down or someone else wanted to use the computer.
So you had no choice but to go spend time going something else ... go for a walk, play a sport, hang out with your friends, read a book or just walk downtown for no reason. And in all that time you were out, you had no phone and no connection to the internet which meant your mind was free to not really think of much for a few hours.
I like the internet and I like social media but I dislike the ability of everyone having, wanting, needing a perpetual connection to everyone and everything all the time.
I feel like a junky sometimes ... I want to go offline but I'm so addicted to it that I never leave.
I'm glad I don't have to be alone with my thoughts anymore. My thoughts are dangerous.
True to a degree .... sometimes the most dangerous thoughts are not your own ... but other people's
