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.

Grandma: call 911, I'm literally having a heart attack
Seems like it might be important for words to actually mean things. Is Grandma being dramatic or is she dying...
Ah, so you want to abolish figurative language too. I like where this is going

I agree, it's stupid, but arguing against it is "old man yells at cloud" territory. The fact is if I said "I literally couldn't get out of bed this morning" the meaning of that statement is well understood.
