- 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).

I'm high again and looked at this comic for a while trying to figure out why I don't like it.
The attention to detail is unsettling. Why go to the effort of drawing a bulge and tits on characters whose design includes low effort mitten hands?
Because the tits show the character's gender. Articulated fingers don't.
The age old dichotomy between what is a grossly perverse, voyeuristic effort by the artist, and what is a bold, profound realization by male viewers that it is not, in fact, wildly immature or degrading to say that women do in fact have breasts on their body.
This time I think it’s the second one.
Drawing something slightly above stick figures and adding crude features without a touch of irony or value to the joke makes this an uncomfortable comic at best. Why not draw breasts on the fish? You said the truth out loud better than I could have. It's the first one.
Are you this uncomfortable when you watch cartoons like Scooby-Doo or SpongeBob and female characters with breasts appear on screen
Usually not.
nah, I think it's the ugly creepy faces
