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.

Most of us for sure. The southern way of making tea is to boil water with the tea bags in it until you have a black concentrated bitter concoction. Next you mix it with four to five times the amount of water and add enough sugar to trigger a diabetic coma. Then you put it in the fridge and serve it over ice. I can't have it anymore and stay alive. I've grown used to making my tea in the British shall I say worldwide way. After having tea this way for a over a decade I can't stand the smell of sweet tea. I do make a large batch of unsweetened tea to drink over ice in the summer. I have to use four to five times as much tea with less water added. I do not over boil the water to make it palatable to me.
The few times others have drank it they have commented on how its not bitter. I don't think very many us realize good tea is not bitter.
I lived in Texas for a few years and can confirm, southern-style sweet tea is just tea-flavored syrup.
