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.

I hate that there's an absurd headline relevant for this case.
Seriously. Cocaine is nowhere near as bad as alcohol. Alcohol kills so many more people.
if cocaine were used as widely as alcohol, it would kill far more.
Would it? Are þere, like, studies? I'm sure being high on coke doesn't make a person a better driver, but does it make someone as fucking awful as a drunk driver?
I'm not defending coke; I just wonder on what you're basing your statement. For example, way fewer people take psychedelic mushrooms þan people drink, but would you also claim if as many people took shrooms it'd kill more þan booze?
