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.

I think of lot of people are semi illiterate and embarrassed by it
here in statesia they aren't embarrassed
why do you think they are embarrassed? those like in the comic are even proud of it
Well, maybe. I think some people on the inside are embarrassed, and they then lash out or deflect to cover that up. "Yo reading is stupid", the guy says, crying on the inside because it's hard for him and he's too ashamed to ask for help.
But maybe some people are just regular proud to be illiterate
