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.

MODERATORS
Probably the most pathetic cartoon I've ever been shown. Author needs real world experiences.
Yeah, it seems as if it was created by a "nice guy" incel. I don't get it.
Did not get that impression at all. To me it seems like basically the same thing as the "What have you done, Billy?" and "dumbest man alive" memes. Something relatably annoying followed by a hyperbolic "haha if only" response.
Not following. We're laughing at the comic, right? It's a funny situation.
Or is the author some creep?
Harassment is continuing once being told "no." There are a few frames missing from that comic for it to count as harassment.
It would seem the author is conflating sexual harassment with random flirting with women. It also sends the message that the author thinks it should be okay to flirt with random women as they go about their day/job, which is inappropriate, creepy, and annoying. He should probably try treating women like humans and develop a healthier sense of boundaries. He might have better luck.
The male character is a creep
Agreed. Put him in the pile with rock throw guy.
Don't flirt with people when they're working. It's gross and predatory because they're basically a captive audience.
