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.

Gen-X here. Can confirm that "virgin", " nerd", and "" were preferred punch lines by the boomers.
Also judging people for having a harmless hobby that doesn’t conform to their world view.
By millenials still early 2000s, and you have to add ethnic slurs on that list
We watched an old episode of friends for nostalgia recently and the whole punchline of the entire episode was “yeah but you kissed a dude”.
Wasn't nerd still common bullying word in 80' and 90'? Then nerds became the richest people with the internet and it doesn't work anymore.
