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 don't know how old you are and what experiences you've had but time, money and opportunity costs are serious.
Maybe it's just where I am right now but being a family provider and seeing those burning cars for the cause of a first-worlder's idea of rebellion is just painful to watch.
I drive a basic vehicle but I try to take care of it as much as I can because a I and my family use it everyday and rely on it heavily for our daily living.
It bothers me that I cannot get it serviced at the correct intervals, have the deep scratches repaired before they start to rust, replace the tires that are already 4 years old and attend to all the little details that would extend the life of the car and make it look a bit more presentable.
And here I see expensive cars, cars I could not even dream of buying, being purposely burnt just to "send a message" to the CEO of the car's manufacturer.
It is such a silly waste, such a decadent display.
