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.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

The responses to this comment led me to discover that some people don't wait for the water to boil before putting the pasta in.
I put the pasta in the pot BEFORE I add the boiling water, that I boiled in the electric water heater, and I split the pasta to put them in the pot cause it's easier.
...just to make sure I understand...
You boil water in an electric kettle or similar, then break your spaghetti and drop it into an empty pot before pouring the now just-short-of-boiling water on top of it and bringing it back up to a boil?
And you think this is an easier process than just boiling water in the pot then dropping the spaghetti in?
Easier... No. Faster... Also no.
