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 ends on the epitome of cultural landfill, which is pop culture references.
There could have been so many different ways to go about this, like suddenly flipping the roles and the one receiving questions starts asking them.
Or a reverse psychology where the opposite questions start getting asked.
Or even introducing a third character with their own distinctive opinion.
Instead it defaults to "Americans think Asian man doing big moves on big screen funny hurdur"... so that's what was added. So utterly disappointing it can't be called comedy.
The whole comic was just a big exercise in silliness, rather than deep humor, such as when the skeptic claimed that the dog "could be a cat".
But anyway, I would love to see the far superior philosophy-related comics that you have been working on!
