Description is left as an exercise for the reader.
1. Posts must be memes relating to physics. Simple, posts should be relevant to the scientific field of physics. Posts can involve other scientific fields too but they must be related to physics.
2. No reposts of 6 month old posts, or posts that are in the Top of All Time.
3. No low effort submissions/topics. There are many physics jokes that are just... Really overdone. As of writing these rules, no topics have been explicitly banned yet, votes will be held in the future on whether to ban certain topics or not.
4. No asking for upvotes/upvote begging. For starters, no straight up asking for people to upvote your post, obviously. This rule also covers many fringe topics as well, including cake day posts, posts containing things like "this post will only get 6 upvotes", referring to the post dying in /new, etc. For the most part this will be enforced at the mod's discretion for fringe cases, though it'll generally be obvious why a post is removed if it's removed for this.
5. No academic dishonesty. It is strictly forbidden to facilitate or solicit cheating on any exams. Soliciting will result in a permanent ban, agreeing to help will result in a temporary ban which will become permanent on further violation of the rules.

Hey guys, I need some advice. So I love reading older webcomics like xkcd, Ryan North's Dinosaur Comics, Perry Bible etc... they built their own niche before sharing was easy, and they did it well.
I also love science, planning to major in physics for undergrad. My concern though, is that physics can feel very impersonal sometimes and I figured the best way to combat that feeling while getting something fun out of it was to combine it with my love for comics.
While it's easy to analyse humor in other people's work, I am at a loss when creating my own so I figure I should experiment to see what sticks.
What do you guys think of the pixel art format? Does it come off as lazy or unique?
What do you guys think of the duck in the corner? Would a panel like this only work if the audience is familiar with the mascot/character?
