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.

The avocado toast was never a popular thing. Maybe in some specific locations, but the whole thing about it was just another example of how out of touch with reality the boomers were by a) acting like all millennials were obsessively consuming it, and b) that it was at the root of why millennials were so far behind financially compared to where boomers were at that age.
Tbh, I, a millennial, am not even sure what avocado toast is, despite being familiar with the meme. Is it toast made with avocados as an ingredient? Is it toast with avocado spread on top of it? Is it the act of raising one's avocado and touching the raised avocados of others in appreciation of something or someone? I haven't the foggiest clue, though it's probably more fun if it remains a mystery.
