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.

Dude is wearing a nice coat and a scarf. Don't you know if you are not wearing a trucker hat and a coat from the army surplus store that you are a fag.
can confirm, any guy wearing a scarf in the sticks is probably (considered by others to be) a fag
I was in WV visiting family for Thanksgiving. I wasn't wearing incredibly nice clothing, but it wasn't just a hoodie or whatever other junk is cheap. I really felt out of place (which I was). I was getting a hotdog at a place that only opens for two days every year now, that was a staple a famous, and the next nicest clothes was probably some old guy wearing a jacket either from a surplus store or from Vietnam or something.
The good news is no one cared. I wasn't called anything and no one seemed to be bothered. I am a straight white man though.
True, if your Carhartt looks unweathered you’ll get glances
As someone who wears a surplus Czech army field jacket, I take umbridge with thine implications. Surplus is just thrift with a bias towards khaki, camo, and questionable food products. Also you can get some pretty solid storage boxes via surplus vendors, I keep my bungies and jumpers in a waterproof 30mm ammo case in the bed of my truck
