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.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I usually pick them up by the handles, while locking my fingers against the bridge, so that I can't slip against the glas.
The effort to avoid smudging is commendable.
The use of the word "handles" is not.
What do you mean by “handles”?
The things that rest over the ears. Are they actually called arms or something?
Technically they’re called “temples” and “temple tips”, but I’ve never heard anyone actually use that terminology. Usually I hear them referred to as “arms” (“handles” is a new one 😁)
