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.

My french is a bit rusty but i think it should be :
Un café ? (one coffee ?)
-oui
Du sucre ? (sugar?)
-Non
(The rest of the comic )
Maybe the joke is that neither of them can speak French?
One of my greatest skills is that I can convince a non-French speaker that I'm fluent in French - down to inflections and slang - by slurring a sentence of semi-random phonemes in an appropriately Gaelic-sounding way.
I did this with many languages. Spoke Hindi, but convinced people I could speak the other related languages (Telegu, Marathi, etc.) by just saying random things in my little fake accent. Usually ended it with some small “sharp” words (like “tittu”, just sounds “sharp”) to really sell it.
