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.

Aw crap saw the sign when visiting the USA, I thought it was meant to reassure me. Surely they must wash their hand
If I saw such a sign, I would be even more worried. As they say, every sign has a story behind
The story is that it’s mandatory for food service places and a lot of others as well.
Not super interesting.
The fact that we have to make "wash your hands after using the bathroom" mandatory with signs in every single bathroom kinda explains how COVID spread so fast to begin with.
It's security theater and nothing more. They can make as many rules as they want to, but it's not easy to enforce unless you have someone there observing at all times. Putting the signs there shifts all responsibility off everyone except the individual
