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.
- Limit of two posts per person per day.
- Bots aren't allowed.
- Banned users will have their posts removed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Why tf does this happen??
it's proof that we live in hell
Like the fact that no matter what, the cables behind your monitor are always going to be tangled.
It's gremlins. The cable twisting gremlins. They come at night. I stayed up to catch them. It took 72 hours, but then I saw them.
Take some DMT it makes them come faster.
yeah i gave up with cable management a long time ago. every time i set them up nicely, a few days later i replace something and have to take it apart, and it ends up being more work than just dealing with the absolute mess
Product testers’ job maxes out at “it worked twice during the 5 seconds I tested it, get it to production!”
