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.

Being good at something isnt determined at birth.
That's not true. Savants and prodigies are people who are good at something from birth. Terence Tao was a university level mathematician at age 9. Even if you were right that you can't be good at something inherently, genetics and birth obviously play a huge role in whatever you do. No matter how hard a 1.5m tall person works, they'll likely never become a pro basketball player and certainly not the best
Yeah there's a few exceptions. Emphasis on few. So few that it's not going to have any effect on your life. Whatever field you want to excel at, you can, and it's not going to be dominated by the very rare cases of savants. You can be a theoretical physicist smarter than Einstein.
