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.

Couple of big misses here:
Have you never heard of a blind spot? We are all different people with different experiences. --> fails to describe what a blind spot is. Although the meaning can be guessed by context, it's important enough to state directly, as the woman's ignorance of it is what causes the altercation. Here the artist should have focused on the original premise: how can you question how another person doesn't know something, when you yourself have blind spots?
Another big miss: the silly ending which subverts the intent of the comic and leads to people wandering off (see comments about toilet paper below) when again it was possible to highlight the information problem.
You're taking it too seriously. It's a humour comic, everything before the punchline is to set up the punchline.
You're taking my comment too seriously :) it was obviously a joke, don't you get it???
Right? And they don't even explain toilet paper at the end. Big disappointment for people who'd want to know
Quite unlike the premise of the cartoon, right "mydoomlessaccount" ?
