Why is there a button to unmute this comic strip?

[–] Zaraki42@lemmy.ca 45 points 2 months ago (2 children)

The link wouldn't work so I had to resort to a screenshot.

It's not working I can still hear the screams

Hear me out, you can append any data at the end of JPEG image without corrupting it. It can also be raw PCM audio, and then it could be played with aplay and a bit of wait because you'll also listen to the image itself at first.

There you go:

~~The original was seemingly taken down, but it's archived at https://web.archive.org/web/20210305031852/https://explosm.net/comics/4584/~~

Edit: just saw that the link simply broke over time and leads to an incorrect page now for some reason. https://explosm.net/comics/dave-genieweek-2 is the new location.

I did not give you permission to barge into my life with a new fetish.

Okay, which hentai was this inspired by?

Edit: Out of scientific curiosity, of course.

The link is wrong. It should be this:

https://explosm.net/comics/dave-genieweek-2#comic

Also, here's the original image.

How are you so good at this? A Lemmy treasure for sure

The last panel should just be muffled humming noises because his mouth is full of genie

[–] Dagnet@lemmy.world 40 points 2 months ago

"I can't leave until you make 3 wishes!"

"Nice, that's perfect!"

[–] danielquinn@lemmy.ca 29 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Thank you. You just made my day.

[–] A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

Same, this had me giggling like an idiot for five minutes easy

KEEP MY LAMPS SPOUT OUT OF YOUR BUTT!

Will Smith as the Genie

KEEP YOUR LAMPS OUT MY WIFE'S BUTT

also Will-Cuck-Smith

Consistency is a big problem for webcomics because they rely on repeat traffic to make money. C&H still has this, but they still have the ability to make me shake my head and say "Jesus fucking Christ" out loud every now and then.

[–] Mothra@mander.xyz 17 points 2 months ago

What an asshole...

[–] wabafee@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago

Genie as an alternative to CT scan interesting.

[–] truthfultemporarily@feddit.org 8 points 2 months ago
[–] pastermil@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I wonder how that would feel.

Also, if you unplug the lamp with the genie still on, what would happen?

[–] JcbAzPx@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It would be violently unpleasant without a lot of prep. Most likely you'd get an answer to the Ant Man - Thanos question.
