Huh, seems the Weird Woman has this consuming obsession that her (perfectly normal, as far as I can tell from the drawing) vagina \* is ugly, deformed or both. A view sadly prevalent among women who aren’t witches in a fantasy world. And our hero, genre savvy or not, obviously has strong views about putting his dick in the crazy (along of suspecting that it’s not going to get him anywhere if he does). \*Yeah, I know, but let’s not be prescriptivist here; “vulva” is barely to be seen in common parlance. ---

The funny thing is, the most popular webcomics are often produced by people who either can’t draw (eg XKCD) or who learned to draw on the job (eg Questionable Content). This is rare example of a successful comic with really brilliant art. People rightly talk about the subtle colour schemes, but in my view the drawing is also amazing. I’ve never before seen human genitals which were so fully cartooned yet so realistic, just to mention one aspect. The drawings are a pleasure to look at quite apart from the clever and funny stories. ---

This week’s alt text: “less a parable, more a stream of gibberish” And incidentally, this thread is the fourth Google hit for oglaf, after the main comic page, the most recent update, and TV Tropes’ page on it. ---

I like this one. It makes good use of the timeskip, and has a funny punchline. The random saying I got at the top of the page also works pretty well as an alt-alt-alt text: The individual _can_ be divided but it’s not pretty. ---

> [@plegmund](#): > > The funny thing is, the most popular webcomics are often produced by people who either can’t draw (eg XKCD) Huh? Randall Munroe (xkcd author) can certainly draw. Some of his early strips are just drawings from when he was in high school. Quite decent art. Every once in a while he demonstrates it in the comic ([example](http://xkcd.com/556/) although that one has stick figures for the humans). Another good artist, that you wouldn’t be aware of from his webcomic, is Rich Burlew, who does Order of the Stick. His comic has stick figures too, although more elaborate ones than xkcd. He didn’t have to do it that way. He could have done it with very realistic art, although that would take him about 10 times longer to draw. ---

Considering how long it takes sometimes for a new installment to appear as it is, if it took 10 times longer it would surely kill us all. ---

The rogue was taking advantage of the well-known trope of hot women getting into sexy catfights. But she had prepared for that, so as to not make it a fair fight. ---

> [@Sir\_Prize](#): > > [New one. Did we know her name before?](http://www.oglaf.com/roguearsenal/1/) I don’t get it. Maybe you have to be a woman to appreciate this one? She is the sex thief who vanquished monks and then the monks started making other people believe they feared bees. As for this panel, it’s a lot like the The fountain of doubt in that it’s meta. You wouldn’t expect someone to throw ink at you in such a situation and try to escape since it doesn’t really affect much. Because it comes out of left field as a tactic and is ineffective, you’re confused, which makes it effective. In the last panel, they’re confused about how long the confusion will last. Being confused about how long the confuson will last is part of what they’re confused about, which lengthens the confusion. If this confuses you, that’s ok. ---

I think, I’m not sure, but I definitely think, that was the most arbitrary gag we’ve seen thus far. Warrior woman seems to have rolled a 1 on her usually reliable ‘Genere Savvy’ check. The stinger really needed a beat panel. 'Course, the only way to squeeze it in would have been to cut out the spanking panel, and no one would want that. Might have worked better animated. Despite competing with the rough lesbian sex and the aforementioned spanking, the the ‘hate fun’ line was probably this weeks winner, though, ‘without the bit before it turns sexy’ comes close. – Notice the priest guy politely looking away when the fight started? Possibly the least horny person in the Olgaf-verse. ---

I thought the monk at first was fighting with temptation and the last panel “how long do you think the confusion lasts?” was him wondering if she would be confused long enough for him to have a go. I like the symmetry of where he is staring in the first panel to where he is staring in the last panel. Considering he encouraged the event and where he finishes gazing while his hands fidget, I would hesitate to call him unhorny. Either way, MichaelEmouse is right: this confusion is confusing. ---

My take on the confusion joke: There’s nothing inherently confusing in the ink. The confusing part is, “Who the fuck booby traps their vagina?” The monk doesn’t get this, though, and thinks there’s some sort of magical or chemical effect that has her confused. I don’t imagine him attempting to have a go at the warrior woman, because I can’t imagine anyone who’s known her for more than five minutes being that suicidal. ---
