I still think it's a better image for Nightmare Fetishist (which is currently imageless).

I know it's pretty much impossible to find an example of Fetish Retardant that doesn't fall under Rule 34 for some people, but as long as we find something that creeps out the majority I think it'll work.

This implies, quite correctly, that my mind is dark and damp and full of tiny translucent fish.

Deboss: Assumes facts not in evidence from the image. You could easily assume one person is describing their fetish to someone who doesn't have it.

Which basically makes the image self-nullifying and better for Nightmare Fetishist if it's good for anything.

This SMBC is all about the trope. Can we just use the last panel or do we need to splice in some context?

[up] It would need some context.

The funny-sized panels might make it hard...maybe panels 1,2,5 and 6? Or just 1 and 6?

1, 2, 5, and 6 would get the entire point across...1 and 6 could work, but I think there's something lacking.

What about that and that? Especially panels 4-7, edited in one here

Too wide, try to put them all vertical.

Here it is...I think we could get away with just using the first two panels.

How about now?

Edited it to be vertical and have all the panels of the same width. It may be either all four panels of just two first or the two latter.

[up] Much better. I'd like to use all four panels, but I worry that the third may be toeing the NSFW line.

[up] Very possible. But will just two panels make comic the justice? I'd like to know what others think.

The third panel makes it work, for it lets us know that it's a sex scene that ruins itself. Heck, we could just use the last two panels.

I'm on the internet. My arguments are invalid.

How about adding in the puking at the beginning — otherwise it may not be clear why the audience thinks it's gross.

Not sure how many minor edits do we need now, so I made this version:

That one is even better, except it only needs the top three rows. The bottom two are unnecessary.

Or just Panel 1, 3, and 4.
