Somewhere in a anthropomorphic society of insects, rocks and other creatures known as Bugworld lives Crange, an acorn with a drinking problem, a lack of morals, and no interest in moving forward with his life. After losing the tree that served as his parental figure and home, Crange’s life takes a turn for the weird, getting into situations ranging from run-ins with bug werewolves and murderous “artists” to kidnappings by thieves and making deals with the Devil.

* RunningGag: Characters using the bar bathroom as a means of getting out of awkward situations
* ShoutOut: A few.
** The alt text for one strip in "Crange Leaves Himself" tells the reader to 'think of [[Creator/{{Egoraptor}} Arin]] from GameGrumps' in reference to the joyful "yyee-aaaahhh" let out by Ghost!Crange.
** The entirety of the "Crange Is A Good Ol' Boy Who Is Here And Back" chapter sees our hero replaced by a suspicious creature with the facial structure and mannerisms of [[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons Homer Simpson.]]
** Whilst contemplating the pros and cons of being turned into a werewolf, Crange notes "Film/VanHelsing (?)" as a possible con.
* ToiletHumor: To the point where one chapter is literally titled “Crange Takes A Shit.”
* WhenThePlanetsAlign: Crange splits into two beings, one representing his intellectual side thirsting to free himself from his reality in a ghostlike form and the other being his hedonistic slacker side, who keeps his corporeal body. After being freed from the other the two Cranges find their own forms of happiness, and almost agree to live their lives entirely separately until Saturn falls out of line and they become one being again.
