Okaaay . . . . there are times when this strip goes waaaaaay past expectations, and this is one of those times.
@ kitenkaiba:
Was he though?
And the last few strips had me thinking the comic was getting good again…
I hated the photographer revenge strips, but I think this one was pretty funny. In the revenge strips, a basically nice and innocent guy was targeted for character assassination for no good reason at all. That really bothered me since it said some very bad things about Woo and his friends morality. Very few people were upset by that though. In this strip however no one is being unjustly harmed, it’s just a play on social norms, but now everyone is all bent out of shape. It’s just odd to me the priorities people have.
I love how odd the comments can get, one week this kind of thing is fine (the revenge story) the next the comments section gets filled with ultra conservative prudes .. the hell O_o.
Does the title of this strip refer to in-comic or comic-commenters culture clash? 😀
To everyone complaining: Deal with it.
@ Novil:
Yeah, but at least, it finished on a good note and not a racoon porking another one. And where is the fun in this strip. I know the one you showed me as an example did not have any jokes in it but ,again, at least it finished on a good note and we felt good about Woo. There, he’s just a “beast” making quite brutal love with another “humanized” racoon.
The fact that there is a lot of Woo that can remind us of humans is certainly why i can’t find this strip fun but disgusting
Wouldn’t the adults hear Woo Talking?
Some of you people…. Good grief but you take life way too seriously. Whether its getting so upset about cartoon animals having censored sex, or being hyper offended that someone would say something bad about Americans (pro tip: America actually has a pretty poor reputation in the rest of the world, and even in America there is a perception that the majority of Americans are easily offended prudes), or whatever else it is some of you lot choose to get so worked up about.
As others have said, in some ways your hystertics over a web comic is funnier than the comic itself.
And this was a funny comic.
I’d tell you to grow up and limit your outrage to things that deserve it – for the sake of your own blood pressure if nothing else – but I know its futile. So, keep on with your hysterics and tantrums, just don’t be surprised that the rest of us keep on laughing at you in return.
1. I like the humour at this site. (Sex exists, kids know, done light-and-funny)
2. I thought this strip looked better with the rectangular censor bar – where to find a copy of the original pic?
3. Keep up the great work!
By Gods…
If this doesn’t Cross the Line Twice, I don’t know what does.

Gives new meaning to “stuffing”. 😉
Haha:’D Lily’s face^^fucked silly
Anyway, time to give a little feedback on the comic. Horrible. Just horrible.
I mean you wait for everyone to be seated before eating. Selfish little coon.
@ Pewling:
‘In action’ Lmao. Eell played.
@ Eric:
Reminds me when the Top Gear crew (Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond) went to do an across America road tour with used cars. When they passing Alabama they decided to do silly thing and paint their cars with words like “Hillary for President” “Man love is OK” and “Western culture suck.” (You know, typical British humor). They expect people to only point and laugh but they ended up making some rednecks angry and they had to flee the state for real (After the camera crew hastily and panicky clean the cars).
Seriously lighten up people, especially conservative US folks.
@ GnarlyDoug:
Some were though. i was, just like I was annoyed at the Ruth (the carnivorous squirrel) for the obvious double-standard of cute/not-cute.
A lot of people following this comic kinda scare me to be honest. Huge biases towards cute or what they are told to love (main characters), makes me wonder what type of crazy mob these guys could take part in in real life.
That is one satisfied looking raccoon…..
Purely strategically thinking the only effective way to shut up people who are offended by the lack of censorship is probably even less censorship. (not that there would be much to “see” from that angle anyways)
And aren’t Woo and Lily running around naked all the times anyways? Why does nobody feel offended by that?
lol, that was not how I thought it was going to end, it was much better. Thanks for the laughs 🙂
Dammit Woo! The orgy is AFTER dinner! What a social faux paus!
From my point of view, there are two likely strips to proceed this one. Either the comic will continue the way most see it is going, with something about raccoon behavior or something similar (the title in a way follows this), or the censor bar will be removed to show that there was nothing really happening, which would be a little like saying “you guys and your dirty minds, jumping to conclusion.” Either way, I think most people are overreacting.
Suprisingly many prudes it seams…
the point here Woo is an animal.. a talking animal… but still an animal…
and even if he wasent human culture does not nessesarily stray to far from this either…
sexual shame is largely an invention of the jews by what i can tell.. many ealier more acient cultures did not exibit this kind of prudishness…
But its very hard to abandun such a powerful cultural force once introduced…
Someone do a count, I’m not sure the comment section is being dominated by haters at all, I think evryone is just outraged at the outrage.
lily’s face!!!!
what, by being stuffed?@ Petah-Petah:
To be fair, that is EXACTLY how ‘coons behave in real life. That is actually very good raccoon behavior…
This is what happens when rules of the forest are inside the house and house rules are forgotten. Now they need a rule book with color photos and red some X’s over some of them.
How are they not parents yet?
@ john willow:
They are working on it. Give them a few months.
@ Antiyonder:
I must admit I have NO idea what this has to do with americans.
This was the most controversial and commented on comic as of yet.
Sandra and Woo?
More like Sandra and WOE ammirite?

… whoa, chill out dude. half of the complaints on here are meant as friendly insults, and the other half are most likely just jealous virgins@ Jon:
Man, these people going “omg censored animal mating, my eyes have seen nothing i am off to read something else never to return!” are freaking hilarious.. XD

I think this pretty much fails, because Woo throughout the comic generally acts like a human in a raccoon costume. I don’t even understand people who say Woo is “really” a raccoon – this seems delusional. Yes, he’s drawn in a way that most resembles a raccoon. Clearly his attitude toward food and sex is meant to vaguely resemble a sort of stereotypical raccoon. He also walks on his hind legs and speaks flawless idiomatic english. He also understands english, including idioms like “I want to see you on” and abstractions like “boss”, “wife” and “raccoonity” (see the first two panels!) that even if raccoons used abstract concepts, would still be utterly meaningless to them. See him giving a ‘thumbs-up’ in panel 2? In his actual behavior in the comic, he is a human child of roughly Sandra’s age, with a thin coat of raccoon paint. Drawing him with other “raccoons” around him doesn’t make him a “real raccoon”, any more than Bugs Bunny is a “real rabbit”. The claim that he doesn’t understand human embarrassment or attitudes toward sex is ridiculous in context but in any case is belied Sandra & Woo strips from the last two months!
Summary: You can base humor on Woo “being a raccoon” if it’s either consistent (Bugs Bunny *always* chews carrots and lives in a hole), or ridiculously inconsistent (his hole has a phone). But “when we feel like it” doesn’t work very well.
So imagine that’s an adolescent boy on that dinner table – because that’s how Woo predominantly functions in the comic – got that picture? I propose that’s why this strip seriously misses the mark for some people.
@ Sarusig:
When I first saw this comic six months ago, I was too stunned by the sheer shock to come back to it. But having come back here, and perusing the comment section, I can safely say that you, sir, have won the internet with that remark.
Erm…..don’t younger people sometimes watch this? I mean i’m no prude and there are censor bars but seriously!
@ Nostradamus The Seer:
You’ve obviously never lived somewhere with feral cats…
Well, he IS showing best behavior…
I mean, if you look at behavioral studies… 😉
@ Pylgrim:
truu
wow there sure are a lot of triggered crybabies reading this comic
WHEEEUUUUUAAAAA WOO!!! Your best behavior is perfectly appropriate…
…At a sex orgy.
@ Gamesman:
It is not the vocal minority that is the problem but the silent majority who let the minority get away with everything they do.
If an 18-year-old having consensual sex with his 17-year-old girlfriend (even after having had sex with each other prior to his 18th birthday) can result in him being publicly branded (and harassed) as a sexual offender for the rest of his life, there is something seriously wrong with more than just the vocal minority. (I got that “information” from various American TV crime series. Got a problem with my source of information? Complain to them, if you deem them inaccurate!)
If we’re talking about a democracy and about some kind of law, there must have been some majority responsible for it – not just a minority, no matter how vocal.
