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.

Most (but not all) music has something to recommend it. If you don’t like entire eras of music it’s not because the music is “bad,” it’s because it’s not to your taste anymore (or, for stuff you didn’t listen to, never was).
Much like with food, if you can find what makes a particular genre enjoyable and listen for that, you can enjoy a lot more. I would never listen to Taylor Swift the same way I listen to Rush or Pink Floyd, but I still loved Midnights. I wouldn’t listen to Bach the same way I listen to Nightwish, but they’re both fantastic.
There’s nothing wrong with being discerning in your tastes. But there’s also nothing wrong with the styles of music you don’t like, it’s just a different flavor. I don’t like cilantro and never will, but I understand why people do. And I didn’t like coffee until I learned how to taste it properly. The same is true of music.
Our names be similar like whaaaat
You’re not the first fellow TheReal I’ve found in the wild, but it always makes me do a double-take. 😃
Where's the real Slim Shady? Can he please stand up? Please stand up? Please stand up?
I listened to a lot of somewhat niche cringiest punk and red dirt country bands (odd combo i know but I was a confused teen) in high-school. Like bands that no one has heard of, no I'm not bragging these bands were just that awful. But I was young and HAD to be different and some of the songs would make me cringe so hard now that my soul may leave my body if listened to one. You're right about one thing my music tastes changed drastically
