Oglaf appreciation thread - very NSFW - hilarious pornographic webcomic

[Chronos]

I'm starting to think she just gets off on confusing guys.

[ultrafilter]

She loves a good mindfuck.

Amusing, but I'm starting to get tired of the one off strips

I'd presumed it was too pointless to mention.

It was simply too awesomely amazing to describe in words.

It was the best strip ever, I don't think I've ever seen a comic as great as this one.

I don't know: that period at the end of the sentence is totally awesome. Maybe the best period ending a sentence ever.

[Malacandra]

Well, and where's the punchline this week? I mean, I'm an asshole, but I know the rules: if the owner of the equipment says it's a vagina, then a vagina it is.

[Lumpy]

OK, it's official: I never want to see Mistertique again.

[project2501]

Awww man, you guys broke the site, now I can't see the new comic.

Nor I.
Let's beat them up and steal their lunch money.

An interesting aside, possibly related to the site being down: I usually go to the site by Googling for oglaf and then clicking the link, so as to prevent it from making its way into my browser's address drop-down (just in case my nieces are ever using my computer and click the wrong place, or something). But Google now doesn't actually list oglaf.com as a result for a search on oglaf. And yes, I have Safe Search turned off. Huh?

Did Google make it possible to turn Safe Search off again?

[project2501]

This was on ogalf's twitter 2 hours ago:

No idea why the site is down, have passed it onto the person who can fix it. Hopefully she'll sort it quickly.

So it looks like a internal site problem.

It seems to me that Google has adjusted its search protocols so that even when you don't have Safe Search activated it still avoids certain areas.

I am surprised that Mistress minions didn't repair this in about seven minutes.

Last I heard it was set so it no longer went to anything lower than what used to be called "moderate safe search", unless you put in additional search terms - and then you still get different results than you used to. Some things are harder to find than they used to be, because they have something like a swimmer in trucks that the algorithm thinks is porn.

[Der Trihs]

Given that Order of the Stick was recently knocked out for some time by a DDOS attack, I wonder if someone is wandering the Internet whacking random webcomics? (if it turns out to be a DDOS that is)

Yes, I was just checking that out, and it's either safe on or off, and off is the old moderate. Which sucks, because as you said most of the relevant non-explicit images you are looking for will not show up in the moderate safe search.

[MrDibble]

This is why I bit the bullet and switched to Bing for image searches.

[GuanoLad]

The Google Safe Search thing began a couple of months ago. It's to prevent innocent searches from bringing up explicit imagery. If you want explicit you can specify and it will comply, but otherwise looking up "goats" will just get you goats.

At first I was a bit annoyed, but eventually accepted that it was probably the right way to do things.

Same here.

I disagree. First, because it already did that; you just had do switch it to Moderate Safe search. This change meant that people who didn't want Safe Search had no choice but to use it. And second, the work-arounds don't produce the same results as the non-safe search Google did; it makes it harder to find all sorts of things. And third, you have no way of knowing what you are missing because it gets censored before you ever see it.

Just don't let the dwarves get at the server!

You may have hit on the problem.

[project2501]

I saw the new comic:

alt="taste the enigma" title="Once you know it, the solution seems so obvious."

Isn't the solution to just turn her around?

OTOH, if someone's going to face this conundrum, it might as well be him...

obligatory "boner" joke.

[Chronos]

Where did the skeleton get the bone? All of its limbs seem to be intact.

In such an unkempt graveyard, where couples fornicate with impunity and skeletons rise and bicker about their sexuality, one can imagine bones strewn about hither and thither.

[The Controvert]

A better question might be how do skeletons see without eyes? Ans: a wizard did it.

[GuanoLad]

I've got wide hips for a guy. Makes me look weird(er).

[ultrafilter]

We should probably acknowledge today's comic.

[Barking Dog]

We should?

[ultrafilter]

Probably.

[silenus]

Maybe if we ignore it...

[project2501]

I think we need to take a survey.

[Lumpy]

Has Oglaf jumped the ghost shark?

[Trinopus]

Not jumped the shark...just in a period of laziness. Coasting. It'll get better.

This happens to comic strips...a lot. Doonesbury, Tumbleweeds, any number of others. Even the very great Pogo had occasional slow periods (such as the very long soliloquies of the Kansas Jayhawk. Droll, but dry as a Kansas dust-storm.)

[project2501]

On twitter she talks about be under a heavy work load and getting back to the main story once that eases up. So it's probably a combination of too much other stuff and prepping a story line set of comics.
