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.

Musical chairs teaches that abandoning the needy and competing in a zero-sum game is a losing strategy in the long run because it does nothing to address the underlying problem of limited resources. Does the winner enjoy sitting alone on their throne? For how long, before it too is taken away?
If I was a smarter kid, I would have realised it's better to exit the game early and chill out wherever the discarded chairs go.
