- 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).

It is and it does.
What's the deal with Social Media!
“We’re all alone on our phones taking dumps… they should call it “anti-social media!”
In the background, Larry David smiles and nods, knowing Jerry Seinfeld is oblivious to the entire show just being a burn on how shitty his comedy actually is
Why did I hear this in my mind in Jerry Seinfeld's voice?
slaps bass
My rule is .... if you think about sharing it longer than a minute .... don't share it.
Shit sometimes I type a comment too long and just give up/delete it.
and always its one of 2 reasons: rewriting one single sentence dozens of times or write half an essay but then decide a) dont care enough b) dont want to get involved or c) realize that you dont know enough to add anything valuable to the conversation
I see, so heathcliff is peak comedy
Don't forget the strawmen. So many strawmen.
"Look at my ideological opponent and their objectively dumb opinion that I so savagely destroy in a risk-free debate where they don't get a chance to defend themselves"
Reddit had so many low effort political comics with obvious strawmen. Oh you don’t like my Trump comic with him eating poop? You must be pro-Trump.
"Random little pun" comics are right there with the ones about writer's block IMO. I mean they're practically the same. Like a stand-up comedian doing a whole act about airports.
But we never found out "what's the deal with airports??" /S[einfeld]
They're a liminal space, Jerry!
Okay, so Mario eating a Mushroom and scrolling... And his friend Yoshi (an animal) telling him his social media feed is only interesting because the mushroom is drugs.
...the title can be "It's not the Algorithm".
Unfortunately, the last tier rung drags this comic down with it.
"Its behind me, right?"
i love how there were no words that could encapsulate the orange tier so its just a Guy
How is observational humor different from the examples in "leave it in the draft"?
S tier: Ziggy.
C tier: family circle, except when billy goes wandering
D tier: everything else
F tier: billy wandering around family circle.
