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.

No, it's not doing that all! Having your name spelled wrong on a Starbucks cup IS NOT a real problem! You're fabricating outrage at something that does not exist in the comic. The artist is making fun of the petty nonsense that people complain about. So, it's not dismissive of real problems because it doesn't list a single real problem in the comic.
The comment I was replying to was clearly talking about a pattern of behavior beyond what is in the comic.
Which is a pretty goddamn petty thing to complain about. How dare people express their opinions and dissatisfaction with anything that isn't the end of the fucking world, right?
Yes, there are people who blow such things way out of proportion, but this comic does nothing to distinguish between reasonable responses to these issues and unreasonable ones, it just lumps them all together and tells everyone to shut the fuck up in the most condescending way possible.
