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.

Thank you.

Don't apologize. That pain is exactly why millennials are so much more tech literate than boomers and gen Alpha.

shitty?
Assuming you're referring to rickrolling.
Yes bilephant
The pain Olympics made millennials tech literate?
I'm guessing they don't know what the Pain Olympics are, and interpreted it as a poetic description of the technical trials and tribulations of using the old Internet.

Wow I was thinking about that just the other day (I remember it as "BME pain olympics"). I wonder if it's still floating around out there? But TBH I don't want to know.
Yeah, it was Body Modification Enthusiasts or something?
I heard years ago it was all faked. Who knows? The trauma is real.
I mean there is always goatse. I showed my co-worker the original image since they didn’t know why there are memes about it now a day.
Eye bleach was used that day.
