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 think learning all abbreviations for different months in different languages is more complicated than just learning that the time is sorted from largest to smallest unit.
No! It’s the other way around, from largest to smallest is a mess and it makes no sense
If you name files or other data with ISO 8601 then they're always sorted chronologically when you go largest to smallest.
So true, bestie! That's why all the clocks in my house are formatted ss:mm:hh
I know, right! I've been campaigning for this for everyday numbers. For example, twenty seven should be written smallest first: 72. Likewise this year is 5202, and next year 6202. That way no-one's going to be confused at all.
