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
Some of us need someone who loves us without judging us.
A cat won't judge you on human criteria.
They'll judge you as they would a big, awkward, somewhat dumb, and poorly socialised kitten who doesn't know any better.
All they'll ask for is comfort (including food, litter box, and so on), respect (from a cat's point of view, e.g., don't look them directly at the eyes, that kind of thing; being allergic to cats, it should come naturally; cats love people who are allergic to cats, you tend to stay out of their way and not bother them when they don't want to be bothered), and affection (when it suits them).
If you can't earn a cat's trust... you probably shouldn't be trusted with a dog either, even if the poor brain damaged critter will love you all the same.
Before my cat allergy developed to the point that I couldn't go near them, I remember being at a friends house with their cat (that was very familiar with me) which got on my lap and was purring while I petted him, and he suddenly bit my hand and ran away with no warning or anything. I didn't do anything to cause it either. I think it trusted me or it wouldn't have gotten onto my lap.
Cats can be assholes for no reason. They're kind of notorious for that. It's just something I wouldn't want in my life.
