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 believe this is a quote from Buddha, "Holding onto anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned".
Which is why you gotta use a cold coal. Cold and calculated intent
I think my favorite variant of this is: "Hatred is like swallowing poison and expecting someone else to die."
exactly why you need to start small and build a tolerance
apparently the buddha has never heard of leather gloves
If you wait for some ash to build up on it first, you could have enough time to properly aim it at someone. That's how those fire-walkers do it.
That's right!
