> [@sturmhauke](#): > > I think it started going downhill around October 2002. The early stuff is pretty nifty though. It started going downhill when it became completely incomprehensible. The last few years, I can’t even follow most of the plotlines. It might help if Abrams wasn’t just congenitally incapable of letting a plotline end. ---

> [@OtakuLoki](#): > > But she just doesn’t look all that good in a floatie. She doesn’t need a [floatie](http://sluggy.com/daily.php?date=990923). I guess Oasis is a good choice if you’re into [gymnasts](http://sluggy.com/daily.php?date=020129). I’d still pick Sasha. She has [huge floaties](http://sluggy.com/daily.php?date=020421). ---

Gimmie the suicide bikini frisbee stuff, or at least a Stormbringer time-travel romp, instead. > [@Excalibre](#): > > The last few years, I can’t even follow most of the plotlines. I don’t even try to follow them any more, but just stick around for the jokes. I admit today’s strip (with Bun-Bun and the alien in the crow’s nest) had a funny exchange on the last panel. ---

I admit today’s strip (with Bun-Bun and the alien in the crow’s nest) had a funny exchange on the last panel. Their adventures used to be so fun. Now I can’t even follow the storylines because they’ve popped up in eight separate incarnations and never made any sense to begin with. Who the hell _was_ that purple thing from Hereti-Corp that they were chasing? Is K’z’k still around? What the hell was that whole bit a couple years ago with the house falling through hell? It just stopped making sense, and it’s sad. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/sluggy-freelance-fans-zoe-gwynn-oasis-or-shasha/296602.md?page=2)
