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.

you know what i've come to suspicion lately?
actually, rent prices might be so high because there's fewer houses/apartments than people looking for one, and that drives prices up (low supply, high demand), but the reason that supply is so low is because investors are predicting that the population number will fall in the future (due to low birth rate), so people's demand for houses/apartments will be lower as well. so if they construct now, it might not pay out for them later on. that is why they're waiting, and not constructing, and if people do the same, instead of buying houses now, buying them later (e.g. living with your parents), rent and housing prices might significantly go down.
