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.

omg, I was laughing so hard when I saw that 😂
Would you believe it stands for acre-foot? ☝️🤓
Haha. No, I looked this up just 2 minutes ago, but what a coincidence, huh? 🤣
Cool! Check this out...
The following is a list of the first two rivers by outflow and the Mississippi in acre-foot:
Crazy that the top is over 5 times more than the next one 😮. The largest outflow in North America and the one I've seen in person is the Mississippi, which is only 9.5% the outflow of the Amazon. The Amazon is over 10 times more than the Mississippi, which I thought was humongous in person 😮.
On to sewers, which is what one of the uses for the acre-foot according to your quote. The following is a list wastewater generated by location:
So the outflow of the Mississippi alone is greater than twice the wastewater of Asia, North America, and Europe combined 😮!
My math may need to be checked 😬
Well no, I don't think I would believe that.
Yeah, it's so unbelievable. The acre is much too large a unit to fit into the astrophysical canon.
It's a capitalization issue caused by its COBOL processing code.
The correct is atto-Farraday.
Also, Autofocus… as in “This camera has fast AF AF!”
