The flag here for ShreddedMoose was sent with the rationale

I'm not familiar with this work, but a page on it has in the past been cut by the P5 due to inappropriate content. I decided to go to Ask the Tropers and ask if I should flag this page, and Septimus Heap said yes, so I'm flagging it. There's also the fact that the Bad Webcomics Wiki describes it as "pornographic" and warns that it "will nauseate many readers".

As far as page history is concerned: page was made in 2014, so I presume it was cut sometime before then. The previous iteration is for the same webcomic.

If they did tone down on the NSFW, that could mean keep but clean, but if some of the comics are missing/removed (previous page iteration noted the website's defunct, while the trivia page noted that some strips are outright removed), that makes it harder to trope.

As a former BWW member, I feel obliged to mention that the quoted text comes from the standard content warning templates about the work, not from the review itself. The Nausea Fuel warning, if I remember correctly, was for the gore.

There's also an entry for it on Horrible.Webcomics that might help with context.

Since I'm not an admin and wasn't around at the time, can't comment on why the page was originally cut.

I haven't seen the comic itself, but the fact the old entry on SBIH doesn't mention explicit porn, just that there's sexual content (Googling around, there's some sexualized big-boobed women and sometimes nudity), seems to be a point in its favor. Contrast with the actual sexually explicit webcomics that were removed from SBIH for being too porny.

I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.

As far as I remember, it's a sex comedy like Oglaf (nowhere near as good, mind you, but quality is irrelevant here.)

I do wonder why our article was originally removed.

Probably because it was the early era of the Content Policy and the consensus on what we were looking for hadn't solidified.

Could've also been just a badly written page. Stubs, etc.

Edit: So uh does anyone know why it got cut?

As looking it over. I don't see any obvious issues?

Not seeing any problems. Keep.

As for why it was cut...*shrug*

Honestly it doesn't seem to be any worse than the rest of the NSFW webcomics we have up. So I'll also file an official keep. Just wondering what happened before?

There is probably something somewhere here but I don't have the time to search.

Apparently there was once a version in the Comic/ namespace that was cut for being opinionated, but that doesn't help us.

Found an archive of the 142 comics ("Chris Hall's Shredded Moose 2007-2009", appears to not be all of them).

The three panel comics, 2 for setup and 1 for Non Sequitur punchline. Doesn't have a specific theme, some are pop-culture references, some are "funny" situations, some felt like author commentary. Some have a recurring characters, like 21-yo loser gamer Brewsky and nerd Trip.

Out of those, ones that are NSFW (Anything out of 142 not mentioned don't feel too 18+ in my book.):

  1. A girl tries to teach the other what "deep throat" is with a cucumber, but she's dumb and tries with the ear instead.
  2. Brew has a nightmare he's got a kid from forgetting a condom and uses a plunger on his girl (explicit) to "give it all back".
  3. Someone hires a prostitute (nude) to... record a voicemail.
  4. Dinosaur noises turns out to be Brew pre-sex (partial female nudity)
  5. A Pollution Fairy teaches Brew about trash recycling. He shoves her in his pants for noise pollution.
  6. A girl (greek goddess?) reads a book on breastfeeding and Brew substitues himself for her baby while she's not looking.
  7. Flash, Invisible Woman and Hulk have problems with sex (female nudity).
  8. Brew sings the milk and cereal song, and gets fresh breast milk.
  9. For a friend's birthday, Brew prepares a genitalia cake and a giant boner cookie. The friend is not amused.
  10. A girl is covered in white slime but it's just a mayo for burgers.
  11. A manager asks Brew why he's so productive as a cashier today. Then a girl comes out from the desks and says it's been salty.
  12. Brew finishes his Lego masterpiece... a giant poorly drawn genitalia.
  13. A girl has an explicit catapult birth, Brew catches the baby... and does an american football touchdown with it.
  14. Shrek and Donkey have non-explicit sex.
  15. Brew is offered a reward, a harem (nude), money, or a sock with unknown item (keys to a tavern)

From May 2008 it drops single jokes in favor of one continuity, with Brew being repeatedly assassinated, and other characters having own stories. It also tones down the adult humor.

Hard to tell about 2009 since over a half of it was missing at random.


For having "the worst comic of all time" rep, I believe we've kept more explicit, offensive and unfunnier ones. There's plenty of PG jokes and some reseblence of plot after certain point.

Looks like we have a consensus to keep. I'll do the honours; locking up here.
