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.

It's more of a Millenial thing. I'm 35 and I don't pick up the phone ever unless it's an emergency or a job interview.
I'm 36 and if you want to call me, then fine? Who cares? I don't get why it's such a big deal.
It absolutely is not a big deal, this thread is bonkers
Because people suck, and they tend to be more rude on the phone. I don't want to deal with it.
Not to mention that the only time my phone rings, it's almost always a scam. I prefer not to engage with bullshitters.
If it's important, then text me.
How do you know it's an emergency if you don't pick up the phone
I don't if you won't text me. So it's on you.
Furthermore, in a real emergency, people tend to blow up your phone. So if someone is calling multiple times, of course I'll answer, if nothing more than to yell at them for blowing up my phone.
