Sluggy Freelance 

One of the best comics on the planet, written by Pete Abrams. It started in 1997 and has not missed a day ever since. It falls into no specific genre, but covers humor, sci-fi, horror, parodies, drama, a little romance and everything in between.

There are pirates, ghosts, nerds, aliens, laser canons, mad scientists, homicidal rabbits, ferrets, assassins, ninjas, demons, satan-spawn kittens, and is pretty entertaining to boot.

It can be located at www.sluggy.com. Just use the convinient little drop-down bar and enjoy from the beginning, middle, or just jump in at the present- though I wouldn't reccommend it; there are many things that require background information... besides, it's just more fun to read from the beginning!

You can also purchase things to do with the comic or a subscription as a defender of the Nifty to access extra stuff. Enjoy!
Me: Oh no! I'm reading Sluggy Freelance and Aylee has transformed into a potato-eating dragon that releases EMP's and she accidentaly erased all of Bun Bun's Baywatch tapes! Now Torg, Riff, Zoe, Aylee, and Kiki are all on the run and now Torg, Zoe, and a bunch of Zoe's college friends have run into Satan-spawn kittens in a little town in the middle of nowhere and it doesn't things don't look good for them!
Innocent Bystander: o_O ...ooookay then.

v.

To degrade into a helpless spiral of in-jokes and bizarre plot twists so as to make it all but impossible for new viewers of a webcomic or show to become fans easily. See Red vs. Blue and Sluggy Freelance.

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
