About
A fan-made search index for the Achewood strip, blog, or Patreon post you can almost remember.
How it works
Rough Chuckles searches Achewood strip transcripts, character blogs, and selected Patreon comics and in-universe archives, then sends you back to the original page on Achewood, the original blog, or Patreon. Patreon results show a short transcript preview and a blurred thumbnail when an image is available.
Searches sent from Achewood’s search box use the default combined flow. Rough Chuckles shows strong text matches first. When the match is weak, it labels the miss, shows natural-language results directly, and links to all keyword matches.
On this site, Exact Search is best when you remember a word or line. It ranks full phrases and title matches ahead of looser body-text matches. Natural Language Search is for remembered situations or details: describe what happened in your own words, and it looks for comics and posts with a similar meaning.
Blog text comes from each original public RSS feed. Blog results are labeled and include a screenshot of the source blog so they remain easy to distinguish from comic strips.
Some searchable text was generated with OCR and may contain transcription errors. Those results are labeled so you know when to double-check the original.
