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.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Funny part is that this comic is at least a decade old
It feels earlier. I could swear I saw it at the tail end of the Bush years, but it might have actually been the first Obama term. The artist dumped a bunch of comics in a 2011 post on their blog, so probably at least that old.
George Carlin routines always feel relevant and fresh. The reason is he didn't jump into specifics of Reagan or Clinton. He talked about general behaviors of government and society.
The reason his material always seems current despite him being dead for almost 2 decades is that we as a country never got our shit together and fixed the issues.
This comic is from (IIRC) 2002 or 2003, it’s at least 22 years old.
The have wanted us to shut the fuck up and play along sine 9/11
They've always wanted everyone to shut the fuck up and play along. 9/11 was just another opportunity to build towards that goal.
This scene takes place in the gift wrapping section of a department store. Let that sink in for a moment.
I‘m pretty sure it’s from the early 2000s
