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, I call my doctors or other services to verify dates.. voicemail is abused by spammers so I never listen to them
Spammers never ever leave voicemails, that's how I know a call was spam. If someone actually needs me, either I have their numbers already or they leave a voicemail
I always get "An unresolved issue in our office requires your immediate attention, please call XYZ" with no other identifying information. I've learned to clear my inbox without listening to anything because if we had an existing relationship they'd say so.
...did you think I was lying or something? why would you say "spammers never ever leave voicemails" if I just said they do, lol
I get tons of spam calls and basically zero spam voicemail 🤷♂️
Plus with most carriers being able to transcribe voicemails I don't even need to listen to them.
You're aware that you can see the phone number of the caller, right?
See the number? Hell, I've had transcription since at least 2010.
That's me. I've been typing out all your messages and you don't even seem to appreciate it! My fingers hurt...
Why thank you!
Private or unknown number? Assuming my phone is on. Please think.
Your phone will show the phone number of the person who left the voicemail. Please think.
Not every number is private or unknown. Please think.
Don't be mad. It's literally someone else's phone habits, lol. What a silly thing to get upset about.
I didn't say every number is private - I said spammers leave voicemails from private numbers so you won't know who they are. It makes sense, right? "Sirius XM left a voicemail" is obviously spam, but "Unknown number left a voicemail" could be somebody important. Critical thinking, friendo :) Good luck!
