- 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.

The last one is understandable from the standpoint that she needs an mpv to transport all those kids
I don't know what an MPV is, but the most comfortable way to transport a lot of kids is a minivan.
I have a friend whose daughter got into an accident that scared her, so he got her a Ford Explorer.
The biggest problem isn't having big cars around, is the prevalence, the absolute car dependency that makes everyone have to drive, and that a lot people simply should not drive (either for skill it attitude issues).
By mpv i meant this:
Probably what you call a minivan
(English isn't my mother tongue, so i'm probably in the wrong here)
That is indeed an MPV, what we call a "people carrier" in Britain, and I think you're right that Americans would call it a mini van
Yes, it's called a minivan in North America.
Then this turns this conversation into a "wtf is a kilometer" xD
You meant a kilometre /s
Le kilométrè.
I love this language
Okay. Those aren't considered big cars in the US. They are the compact alternative to behemoth 3-row SUVs like the GMC Yukon.
Just checked it out and wtf is this thing ???!
Appropriate reaction.
