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.

Granted, but if the stats are being skewed to make the economy look good, so would stats from other years because the government always wants everything to look good. Same goes for people being underemployed - I've been hearing that since at least the 90s. The truth is that unemployment right now are not historically high - everybody just wants to feel like their experience is unprecedentedly horrible. It's really not. And again, this isn't taking the side of greedy billionaires, it's just the truth. We should all be on the side of truth - even if it contradicts a meme.
