I'm not sure, but quite possibly something like that.

All these pictures have been taken directly from a children's comic
Guess I was reading into a context that wasn't there then.
Plus I'm somewhat desensitised to that sort of thing anyway, thanks in no small part to

among others, being found in, of all places, a children's comic. And they're not the most extreme examples…
They weren't even trying to hide anything there.Of course, modern sensibilities mean that, even though the character was never actually naked, puritan attitudes have essentially forced her to wear
Which is a cute outfit, but it's not really equal treatment, is it? All the girls have to be properly dressed, yet all the guys can run around with their junk out, as it were.

Okey, either she has to hide her lady parts, or go Donald Duck style. Doing both is... confusing to the reader.

Also, "My Dinner With Sonic"? I wouldn't give that title to even the most blatant self-insert fanfic.

she has to hide her lady parts that are fully covered by fur because she's a chipmunk, Chaos damn it!
It's an American product, is Archie's Sonic the Hedgehog.
America: where you can show a kid as much blood and gore as you like, but HOLY SHIT THERE'S A VAGUE FORM OF SOMETHING SLIGHTLY FEMININE BAN IT BAN IT NOW!!!

Swear to Tikal, that's a genuine story from an official Sonic comic, and yes, the writer was paid for that.

still i will say i was already going to like it for your comments. the pictures just sealed the deal!

Just because it's hairy doesn't mean it's not nude.
the writer was paid for that
What? Last time we've had the writer realizing their kinky sexual fantasies in a published piece of work with no regard to writing style, we got... um, wait, Twilight. Which was widely popular and spawned a multi-million dollar franchise.
But then we got... wait, 50 Shades of Grey. Which was also insanely popular and now has a movie being made.
Oh dear fuck.

Didn't seem to be an issue in 1993:
Yes, that's a kids' cartoon. And it's two-for-one with that screenshot

Thankfully it's a kids' comic, so the furthest it ever got was
Only just noticed: the artist fucked up with the finger counts.
And why is Sally drawn with her hand on Sonic's eye‽

The comic, maybe. I suspect DeviantArt users weren't that kind...
And why is Sally drawn with her hand on Sonic's eye‽
They take up the majority of his face. I'm still amazed how he didn't manage to get them poked out before.

But shirley they are expected to know the basics? Even I who hold no interest in furry culture have heard the expression before.Yes, that's a kids' cartoon.
Which is fine. Because kids won't look at it that way. Kinkiness is in the eye of the beholder. (or so I'm told; I'm not into D&D either)

I would attempt to categorize every level on which that cartoon failed to make any sense to me, but I'd be here all day... (I mean, sure, the 'eye thing dude' is probably a Beholder, but that's still a pretty lame pun, and why did the woman/goblin need to poke him in the eye for it? It wasn'that terrible of a pun? Is there some goblin/beholder fued in the D&D backstory that everyone else is referencing? I DON'T SEE WHY IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE FUNNY?)

TIL, just stick to sync/edit/commit/merge and don't try to do anything fancy with VCS, as if you try hard enough, you can probably lose the changes in your working copy, regardless of which VCS you are using.

It was more a case of expecting browsers to shit themselves when you do something like that. For once, I underestimated the capabilities of modern browsers.

TIL: The Mormon church operates a string of canneries that function as a private welfare program and for disaster preparedness all across the US. (Maybe the world?)
There is one less that 5 miles from me and I had no clue despite living in this area for ~15 years. They apparently became popular with the "preppers" due to them having a variety of food that can be stored for up to 30 years.
And no, I am not making fun of Mormons for this. I actually found it fascinating in a good way.

Yeah, they were prepping before it was cool. Kind of like genealogy, it's one of their things.

TIL Wikipedia has an article about pointed hats, with a comprehensive list of pointed hats throughout history.

TIL Wikipedia has an article about pointed hats,
The talk page for that article has some funny bits. Apparently, it started when somebody added a couple of irrelevant sentences about "Similar hats were worn by ..." to an article about a group of people who happened to wear pointed hats. This somehow, through "logic" I didn't even try to follow, led to an argument about white supremacy and "European Nationalist dogma." The article was also originally titled "Pointy hats."

Wikipedia records its "lamest edit wars" for posterity.
Representative sample:
Born of Serbian parents in a part of the Austrian Empire, which a short time later became a part of the Hungarian half of Austria-Hungary and is now in Croatia. He eventually became a naturalized citizen of the US. So was he Serbian? Croatian? Austrian? Austro-Hungarian? Istro-Romanian? Jewish? American? Martian? You decide! But don't forget to leave an edit summary saying how pathetic it is to choose any other version.
-
Just because it's close to home so I happen to know shit:
His father was Serbian. His mother was Croatian. The village where he was born is in today's Croatia, which, IIRC was recognized as such even at the time, not as a sovereign nation as such but as... whatever they called it.
He spent most of his life in US anyway. I don't care that much really, apart from the fact that I'd like to see more recognition for the guy around here. Might get a street named after him here or there. Big fucking whoop. I'd put him on a bill instead of some damn poet, because the guy was a badass.
