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 like that he couldn't look that up on the Big Internet and instead had to use the Little Internet.
No, this just shows one of the current blights of today. People being peasants on their phones when they should just use the computer in front of them. Why look at the world through a keyhole, when you could see it through a large picture window.
That's what I was poking fun at. My wife is the same - she only uses the computer for things like work and editing large documents, and uses her phone for everything else. Different people have different preferences, and that's totally fine.
I figured it was because the “Big Internet” was the work computer and he didn’t want to look up non-work things on there for obvious reasons.
But maybe that’s just because this is me in the comic.
