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.

I could try to but I don't need to. The fact that you could easily name some fruits that aren't berries is proof enough that you have a concept of what a berry is and what isn't. Coming up with a definition would be the next step.
So I agree that "definition" is the wrong word. I should have said "concept". Besides: what's wrong with definitions that are just a list of elements?
I mean personally I always thought it was fucking stupid that a strawberry is the same kind of thing as a blueberry but a grape isn’t. Apparently Iceland agrees.
It's all a social construct. It exists because and as long as we all agree on it. So it's flexible and not set in stone, nor scientifically falsifiable
