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.

Don’t fuck with librarians.

Ooohh, I like murder mystery voting.
All still better then first past the post.
we can improve Epic Fantasy Voting simply by leaving the candidates there.
The first one is just IRV with extra steps
There is also the voting system from Asterix in Corsica: everyone puts their vote in an urn, the urn is thrown in the sea, the candidates have a fight to see who's the strongest
Put both candidates in a field with a bunch of cows for 24 hours. Neither candidate is allowed to move. The candidate with the most cow plops on them at the end of voting is the winner.
This also prepares you for public forum meetings.
Hear me out. All the candidates have take an absurd amount of LSD. We're talking ego death levels of LSD.
Each candidate has was to walk into the middle of an one acre cornfield to grab the flag. They then must make their own back out of the cornfield with the flag.
All this in the dark. Plus for some added fun for us, random mannequins through out the corn field.
I genuinely think a system that just selected people at random for political offices would work better than the current system.
It literally could not be worse. You’d still have all the civil servants who run things, just randomly select the lawmakers every four years and let’s see what happens.
Congressional Jury Duty, I like it!
Can we do the freezing candidates thing then do electronic voting?
Then every person that comes to check why nobody is thawing we freeze them too
I like epic fantasy better than the current fantasy
