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.

MODERATORS
Pedantry is fact checking a comment, figuring out it would actually take around a cup (or 1/4 liter) of gasoline, then figuring out how to convert that to drops and pointing out it would actually take close to 4,700 drops, not just a few.
Smart-assery is replying how it can still be consumed as just a single, very large drop.
Smart-assery is replying that gasoline doesn't have enough surface tension to form such a large drop.
Lemmy-ing is recreating a typical Reddit thread but making sure every comment points out that they’re self-aware.
Knowledge that gasoline is poisonous is… knowledge to.
I also like the version: "knowledge is knowing that the tomato is a fruit, wisdom is knowing that you shouldn't put it in a fruit salad"
The full version is:
Strength is being able to crush a tomato.
Dexterity is being able to dodge a thrown tomato.
Constitution is being able to eat a poisoned tomato and live.
Intelligence is knowing a tomato is a fruit.
Wisdom is knowing not to use a tomato in a fruit salad.
Charisma is being able to sell someone on a tomato-based fruit salad.
"Hey, isn't salsa technically a tomato-based fruit salad?"
"Found the bard!"
Should have borrowed the hat of inteligence.
