The Oatmeal
The Oatmeal is an entertainment site full of comics, quizzes, and other delights by Matthew Inman. The site contains many funny comics and quizzes, and now a book.
Tropes used in The Oatmeal include:
- Ascended Meme: Tumbeasts.
- Blazing Inferno Hellfire Sauce: TASTY FIRESTORM!
- Cats Are Mean: The Bobcats will either fire you or plot your murder.
- Crowning Moment of Awesome: Invoked by Matthew, who considers getting his anti-SOPA animation featured on CNN to be this. Which, arguably, it is.
I'm fairly certain getting koala lovemaking on CNN is the highlight of my career and I wanted to share the moment with you.
- Dead Baby Comedy: How to Name an Abortion Clinic.
- Digital Piracy Is Evil (But Sometimes Unavoidable): I tried to watch Game of Thrones and this is what happened.
- Grammar Nazi: The Oatmeal even makes comics entirely about how to use grammar correctly.
- Swallowed a Fly: This strip.
- The Internet Is for Porn: Inverted - "The State Of The Web, Summer 2011" mentions that social networking has overtaken porn in web traffic. "You've changed, internet. It's like I don't even know you anymore."
- Third Person Person: Inman sometimes refers to himself as "The Oatmeal."
- Trademark Favorite Food: Sriracha hot sauce, as noted above.
