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 knew a guy in high school that would do self destructive stunts for attention.
I saw him eat silica gel on several occasions. I’m sure it’s not good for you but it’s not like he died or anything.
The main warning is because it's commonly shipped with food, and even though it's not toxic, it's certainly not edible. So it's to stop people from eating it.
Yeah, I did some googling after I commented and apparently amorphous silica gel is actually a safe food additive according to the FDA
