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.

I think the bottom line is that you need to meet people where they're at. I understand the part about audio issues and I feel like it's exasperated because of the low audio quality from mobile phones or earbuds. At work, I really have to work at hearing people who use airbuds, especially if they're male Indians.
Conversely, I will read a well-written email or text and to the thing that it's saying, then get a reply that I did it all wrong and realize that I completely misunderstood it. I read it again and then my original reply and can't figure out how I got it all wrong. If they tell me something, however, I'll remember it completely and accurately. Also, I have to write everything down in order to remember, but I never need to look at my notes. I must have some loose wires.
Nope, that's pretty much exactly how my brain works, too. Or maybe we both have the loose wires?
