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.

Fucked up how the British originally swapped in tea for their beer common at every meal. I would have been pissed
What's wrong with having a beer with your tea?
What's this now?
I'm British, I still have a beer everytime I go out to eat.
Ye but it's for recreation now not just a standard water style beverage lel

But we was going to stop short of the 20 ton of material those guys moved a day. That's proper grafting what those boys did.
Anyway the fucker (my mate) got a girlfriend and I never seen him again so we didn't do it.
