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.

That’s the thing, it’s not a ripoff. People are using the markup because of the logo and the perceived value of the brand. Just dress how you want to and let others enjoy that style of clothing.
That's not a style of clothing, that's bootlicking because you feel called out for paying the gucci tax like a moron and want your choice validated.
If you have enough money to blow on a gucci shirt you can make that choice, this isn’t bottled water and canned food during a hurricane, it’s a luxury item intended to display wealth.
