    I mean, they worked, they weren’t difficult to use and you didn’t have to worry about batteries, electrical hookups, fried motors, etc. As long as you’re still using pencils, why not use hand-cranked pencil sharpeners?

      Yeah, an electric pencil sharpener seems like a huge waste of money

        They’re about the same price.

          Maybe at time of purchase. I can almost guarantee the old school one will last longer and cost less over its lifetime.

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.
