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.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

We bought a 4H pig at the county fair once. The kid named her Barbie. It was one hell of a BarbieQ.
How the hell is that cruel you?
How is it not cruel to you to buy and kill a living breathing conscious being? Pigs are intelligent creatures. Don't they deserve an ounce of respect? They're not inanimate objects you know.
How would you feel if it was a dog? "We bought a 4H dog at the county fair once. The kid named her Barbie. It was one hell of a BarbieQ."
How would you feel if it was a slave? "We bought a 4H slave at the county fair once. The kid named her Barbie. It was one hell of a BarbieQ."
Why does it all of a sudden become bad if it is a dog or a human? Don't we share the same capacity to suffer? Sure, there is a huge difference between a pig and a human, no doubt, but both are living breathing beings who feel pain and pleasure, have friends and family and have a desire to live freely and till old age.
