i would expand 'writers block' to 'the comic writing process'.

unfortunately that means this comic gets a big :| from me

It is and it does.

What's the deal with Social Media!

[-] thesohoriots@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

“We’re all alone on our phones taking dumps… they should call it “anti-social media!”

In the background, Larry David smiles and nods, knowing Jerry Seinfeld is oblivious to the entire show just being a burn on how shitty his comedy actually is

Why did I hear this in my mind in Jerry Seinfeld's voice?

I see, so heathcliff is peak comedy

"Random little pun" comics are right there with the ones about writer's block IMO. I mean they're practically the same. Like a stand-up comedian doing a whole act about airports.

[-] crank0271@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

But we never found out "what's the deal with airports??" /S[einfeld]

They're a liminal space, Jerry!

Don't forget the strawmen. So many strawmen.

"Look at my ideological opponent and their objectively dumb opinion that I so savagely destroy in a risk-free debate where they don't get a chance to defend themselves"

[-] CluckN@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Reddit had so many low effort political comics with obvious strawmen. Oh you don’t like my Trump comic with him eating poop? You must be pro-Trump.

Okay, so Mario eating a Mushroom and scrolling... And his friend Yoshi (an animal) telling him his social media feed is only interesting because the mushroom is drugs.

...the title can be "It's not the Algorithm".

Unfortunately, the last tier rung drags this comic down with it.

[-] teslasaur@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

How is observational humor different from the examples in "leave it in the draft"?

[-] toeblast96@sh.itjust.works 3 points 11 months ago

i love how there were no words that could encapsulate the orange tier so its just a Guy

[-] capuccino@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

"Its behind me, right?"

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

Rules
  1. 😇 Be Nice!

    • Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
  2. 🏘️ Community Standards

    • Comics should be a full story, from start to finish, in one post.
    • Posts should be safe and enjoyable by the majority of community members, both here on lemmy.world and other instances.
    • Any comic that would qualify as raunchy, lewd, or otherwise draw unwanted attention by nosy coworkers, spouses, or family members should be tagged as NSFW.
    • Moderators have final say on what and what does not qualify as appropriate. Use common sense, and if need be, err on the side of caution.
  3. 🧬 Keep it Real

    • Comics should be made and posted by real human beans, not by automated means like bots or AI. This is not the community for that sort of thing.
  4. 📽️ Credit Where Credit is Due

    • Comics should include the original attribution to the artist(s) involved, and be unmodified. Bonus points if you include a link back to their website. When in doubt, use a reverse image search to try to find the original version. Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanently banned from posting.
    • Attributions include, but are not limited to, watermarks, links, or other text or imagery that artists add to their comics to use for identification purposes. If you find a comic without any such markings, it would be a good idea to see if you can find an original version. If one cannot be found, say so and ask the community for help!
  5. 📋 Post Formatting

    • Post an image, gallery, or link to a specific comic hosted on another site; e.g., the author's website.
    • Meta posts about the community should be tagged with [Meta] either at the beginning or the end of the post title.
    • When linking to a comic hosted on another site, ensure the link is to the comic itself and not just to the website; e.g.,
      ✅ Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
      ❌ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
  6. 📬 Post Frequency/SPAM

    • Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 🖐) comics a day. This can be any combination of personal comics you have written yourself, or other author's comics. Any comics exceeding five (5 🖐) will be removed.
  7. 🏴‍☠️ Internationalization (i18n)

    • Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
      Sí, por favor [Spanish/Español]
  8. 🍿 Moderation

    • We are human, just like most everybody else on Lemmy. If you feel a moderation decision was made in error, you are welcome to reach out to anybody on the moderation team for clarification. Keep in mind that moderation decisions may be final.
    • When reporting posts and/or comments, quote which rule is being broken, and why you feel it broke the rules.
Banned Artists

The following artists are banned from the community.

  1. Jago
  2. Stonetoss
  3. GPrime85

It should be noted that when you make reports, it is your responsibility to provide rational reasoning why something should be removed. Saying it simply breaks community rules is not always good enough.

Web Accessibility

Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.

When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you're posting:

Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what's going on. (example)
