I know the real answer is "because every road leads to pr0n on the Internet," but I am still at a loss to explain why Googling for "comic thumbnails" and "comics thumbnails," to search for examples of such to show someone, throws back so many pr0n hits.

Sometimes pr0n sites try to stick in all sorts of terms that they expect will get them hits from search engines, but I don't think that's happening here. Still, it's interesting that Google web search has pr0n hits, but Google image search has none (I think) on the first page.

B/c it's less risky to upload full on pics of pr0n and get singled out for corrupting minors than it is if the minors have to click on little thumb nail versions . . .? *hed explodey*

Dunno. They may just be dumping dictionaries into the meta keywords on the page, but still... :/

[identity profile] llamameeljueves.livejournal.com 2005-08-24 03:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe the reason is simply that statistically, people usinf "comics thumbnails" are searching for prOn

Waitaminnit. How can the timestamp be 10:13? Aren't you like two timezones behind me?

[identity profile] telophase.livejournal.com 2005-08-24 03:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Dunno. Where are you? I'm in Fort Worth, in the Central time zone, and it's just a bit after 10:30 here and I'm quite hungry and can't leave to get lunch for another hour. *whine*

[identity profile] llamameeljueves.livejournal.com 2005-08-24 04:18 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm starving ...and I am planning to have roasted chicken from a Mexican-Peruvian restaurant with Yuca, rice and hot-beans that it's TO.DIE.FOR

Can't wait ...^_^

I think I'm just going to Subway and having my usual. Or ... walking over to Jon's Grill; it's got wonderful homemade spicy-but-not-hot-spicy potato chips.

hot hot hot hot spicey food....hmmmmm

[identity profile] telophase.livejournal.com 2005-08-24 05:28 pm (UTC)(link)
I am a wimp when it comes to spicy-hot: I can't taste the actual food and then it just makes me feel sick. :) (I realized "seasoned" was the word I was looking for, but couldn't think of it at the time.)

[livejournal.com profile] puppleball's mother is Thai and eats those tiny dried red peppers as if they were candy.

But I am now all full of hamburger-with-mustard and seasoned, warm, fresh potato chips and sleepy like a cat in the sun.

That sounds mighty fine. There's a very decent purveyor of such in my neighborhood, which I'd happily eat every night if I wanted to end up lookin' like un abondiga con patos.

Oh well, I'd love to eat with more frequently in that place, but I also don't want to end "rolling" rather than walking.

Boston area. It's now a little more than an hour later. I just bought lunch and am eating in my office now.

If you search [ drawing comics thumbnails ] it takes three screens to get to the pr0n, but it also does give many illustrations of thumbnails.

http://www.usscatastrophe.com/zettwoch/rubberframe/ has a comic mural from thumbnail to completion (though their html skillz are wonky).

Cool, thanks.

Are they porn comics? The hits, I mean.

[identity profile] thomasyan.livejournal.com 2005-08-24 05:14 pm (UTC)(link)
I think many are like [livejournal.com profile] telophase's "Gojyo/Goku suggestive", only more explicit: Sexual depictions of characters from animated movies and TV and manga/comics.

I'm at work. I'm not clicking on any of the links. :D

But this is a perfect opportunity to have both a "I got caught looking at porn in the library" and a "I got caught looking at porn by my boss" story in one!

I still want to know why I somehow got pr0n while searching for Pre-Raphealite art.

Yeah, many of those paintings of greek nymphs and witches have a distinct 'c'mere, little boy' look to their faces, but I doubt they don't have anything I can't find in Renaissance art sex-wise. I mean, god, have you seen the Venus of Urbino? Some painters paint with something other than their hands, I swear.

... What do you mean, I'm an art history geek?

At my last job I had one of the graduate assistants manage to land on one of those websites that spawn explicit popup after popup as you try to close them down while searcing for information on Petra, Jordan. She had to call one of the librarians over to help her get rid of everythng. XD

Strangely enough, doing a Google Image search for "comic thumbnails" comes up with little to no porn at all.

[identity profile] telophase.livejournal.com 2005-08-24 05:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Heh. Guess they put the terms into meta keywords and not image links?

[identity profile] rustybitch.livejournal.com 2005-08-24 08:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Puzzling.
And yes, all roads lead to pr0n on the internet. I once Googled for "funny animal pic" for icon-makeage and got a load of links to some truly disturbing sites.

Yes anything you type will come up with porn sooner or later. (even popcorn, I know from experience)

Also if you look hard enough everything will show atleast one pic of anime. (like when we looked for pictures of Duncan McCloud from Highlander ^^; We got chibi little furry badgers aswell O_o;)
