> [@pricciar](#): > > See. I had a different reaction from everyone else. I thought they were play acting and being over the top stupid to make fun of the guard, while the guard never did any of the stuff they were doing. He is disliked by them because he is a guard and nothing more. So, his response at the end is a genuine complaint. And, that made me laugh. Yea, that’s how I read it too, though I also think gaffa has a really good point as well. > [@gaffa](#): > > I assume they are making fun of his small penis, that they are theatrically mocking it - “Is it in?” And of course mocking the general male obsession with dick size. Hence the “spool winding”. I think they’re also making fun of his “tidiness” of language. Given their style of talking in parody, and his response at the end being “this is an enormous slur…” rather than something more crude or vulgar is their way of mocking him and passing the time. Maybe they’re even plotting to “get out on good behavior” by saying that they were mistreated/raped by the guard, and they’re just practicing his “proper” way of speaking to make it sound more believable? Eh, it’s 5am, I’m going to quit trying to think now and go to bed. Either way, it made me laugh, and I’m still here and enjoying reading every week 🙂 ---

> [@pricciar](#): > > See. I had a different reaction from everyone else. I thought they were play acting and being over the top stupid to make fun of the guard, while the guard never did any of the stuff they were doing. He is disliked by them because he is a guard and nothing more. So, his response at the end is a genuine complaint. And, that made me laugh. That was my take, as well. More particularly, they dislike him because they haven’t been able to use sexy shenanigans to trick him into releasing them. So they’re mocking him by acting out what it must be like to have sex with such tidy, conscientious guard. Kind of a weak strip, but “I’m strewing shit around like raccoons got in there,” makes the whole thing worthwhile. ---

What I like best is that there is more than one way to interpret this episode. There is funny enough here for me. And I recall a fair number of installments before the Ivan/ Navaan arc, of varying degrees of hilarity. The drama tag wasn’t irrevocably pulled, but the switch may have been in the ON position for a while. ---

I asked previously about whether there really were “secret pages”, and went a-googling again. No luck finding any secret pages, but some had suggested that the _Epilogue_ pages were the secret pages. I had never noticed the _Epilogue_ pages before. So for anyone else who never noticed, some of the stories have an epilogue page that you don’t get to if you just click _Next Page_. For example, in the [Shaft](http://oglaf.com/shaft/4/) and [Salome](http://oglaf.com/salome/1/) stories, below the link to _Archive_, there’s a link to the _Epilogue_ page. ---

And the Saturnalia update has apparently become a secret page. Yeah, I saw it too, but the previous comic and next comic links skip over it now, and the direct link fails. ---

Well, OK, can someone explain the punchline of this one to me then? “Hey! You found the crocodile and it bit your leg off! Keep up the good work!” Or did anybody get a different punchline out of it that I managed to miss? ---

I took the last panel to mean he had successfully seduced the crocodile, even though he lost a leg in the process. ---

I don’t think it’s an Internet meme; it’s a human meme. Or possibly a multicellular-organism meme. ---
