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.

That’s the way those who would keep us mind-trapped do.
Are "those" in the room with us right now?
I yeah, you’re one of them. What a stupid question. The toon is self explanatory, sorry you don’t get it. Maybe get out of your mind trap.
Panel 1: Seems like dude is belittling chick by yelling something perceived as "mean" and chick is crying.
Panel 2: We find out chick wants to be funny and make people laugh.
Panel 3: We find out dude was actually being supportive and encouraging, and is proud the chick is making the crowd laugh, thereby achieving her goals.
So, I've parsed the comic down. Now, wtf are you saying? Because I'm lost.
It’s sometimes hard for me to read bettern the lines. We can learn together.
That's a positive response! Indeed we can learn together my dude!

Encourage us before a performance?
Yes. And: Just be each others’ cheerleaders— and when we don’t have cheerleaders, be our own.
And that’s bad? I’m confused
Lol! No. The comic was ambiguous, perhaps intentionally, certainly serendipitously!
U wot m8?
I read between the lines. This time.
Be very interesting to understand what you read there.
Look at your interpretation upside down and inside out, until you innerstand.
