So where not whore?

[–]laurench 224 points225 points ago

Yeah I guess. Took a loooong time for me

[–]calicojones 44 points45 points ago

..you've obviously been to orange county.

[–]Physiogonomik 33 points34 points ago

Where?

[–]calicojones 29 points30 points ago

"under there."

"under where?"

"nope, they don't wear any."

[–]cat_weaver 18 points19 points ago

- Whore Magazine

[–]coder2 12 points13 points ago

So what are you eating under there?

[–]calicojones 33 points34 points ago

tacos.

[–]coder2 34 points35 points ago

You uncooperative bastard!

[–]Marleyfan -2 points-1 points ago

Don't where what?

Who, what, wear, why, and how?

[–]teuast 11 points12 points ago

I'm going up there tomorrow to visit my 91-year-old aunt, should I ask her about the Orange County Whore?

[–]calicojones 4 points5 points ago

..yes, please.

[–]CaptHammerCorpTool 3 points4 points ago

So... i'm living in the OC and i don't get it. Took me the longest time to realize it wasn't whore.

[–]skizfrenik_syco 2 points3 points ago

maybe it took him a minute to figure out it was whore?

[–]sterlingdarcher 1 point2 points ago

Took me a long time too, I was too busy looking at that whore.

[–]btreichel 44 points45 points ago

[–]StackOfFiveMarmots 12 points13 points ago

Seems like we should be able to see part of the crossy bit of the first E on OP's submission. I guess they just chose to leave it out since it'd only be a sliver.

[–]smoothchaos 3 points4 points ago

thank you! i still thought it was whore til i clicked your link.

[–]MorseCodeDude 30 points31 points ago

Top comment pulls through again!

[–]xanatos451 4 points5 points ago

Damn! And here I was trying to find out where I can subscribe to Whore. Disappointed!

[–]ONXwat 0 points1 point ago

Well, there is the very similar "crack whore magazine".

I hear this month they have cartman's mom.

[–]azimuthentertainment 5 points6 points ago

Compare the third letter to the fifth letter.. Can't be an E. Definitely whore magazine.

[–]el_nibo 12 points13 points ago

Where do whores go?

[–]Magnesus 1 point2 points ago

Wow, that made me sad a little. Martin writes well.

[–]AnonymousAutonomous 0 points1 point ago

[–]Alexis_ 125 points126 points ago

I seriously drew a blank, I needed this.

[–]Draconan 23 points24 points ago

You missed Whare, which really just means house.

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/whare?s=t

[–]Mastrik 11 points12 points ago

So Wharehouse is house house so they spell it without the h?

[–]femmegeek 10 points11 points ago

no it's a house where you store "wares" as in "goods or products".

[–]koaladbrook 7 points8 points ago

Warewhare ;)

[–]derleth 0 points1 point ago

Warewhare ;)

WHERE!?

[–]Draconan 0 points1 point ago

Don't forget that the "wh" in this case is pronounced really close to a 'f' sound. And I've heard quite a few people say that in all seriousness in NZ.

[–]CarboToad 1 point2 points ago

Ahem, "Warehouse."

[–]derleth 0 points1 point ago

Wharehouse

There house! There castle!

[–]Euphorium 2 points3 points ago

Whore? No, no, no... Oh, it's where, that makes sense.

[–]froglegsoup 0 points1 point ago

"Its a vowel. It must be a vowel. U? no that doesn't work. No it must be u. It can't be o. They can't have named their magazine whore. It must be a u. No, a u doesn't have that thing at the top. It must be a vowel. U?..."

[–]Piisthree 4 points5 points ago

I kinda like the idea of a gothic styled, perhaps mildly pretentious technology magazine named Whyre. But it probably wouldn't have that girl on the cover. Anyway, back to coloring.

[–]Platypusy 2 points3 points ago

As a very drunk person I can testify that I was laughing and racking my numbed mind for a solid 5 minutes before finally realizing that nobody would name a magazine whore. Afterwards I gave up on thinking in a state of mild depression at my stupidity. So thank you mr comment people for once again pulling through.

Tl;dr I'm drunk and logic eludes me.

[–]namfonos 1 point2 points ago

very good. now can you tell me the big O run time of your algorithm? what is the space complexity?

[–]frenzyboard 4 points5 points ago

Well this part takes less time if you first make a visual similarity match algorithm. You know the third letter is lower case, and you know it has a curved top and no upward pointing ligature. The letter forms also have a slight serif, and any time a vertical ligature meets a curve, there is a distinct right angle that begins the curved arch.
So you know it can only be a vowel, since the curved top of the mystery letter doesn't follow any of the rules communicated by the other letters' ligatures and serifs.
Therefore you can surmise that the mystery letter is either a, e, or o, as they are the only vowels with arched tops to them. You can further visually eliminate the a as it lacks the necessary ending and serif you can safely assume it should have. This leaves you with e or o.
So I guess you don't even need a silly little sorting algorithm. Just some basic knowledge of typography.

[–]moonlightsun 0 points1 point ago

Amazing how your brain does all that before you even know what happened.

[–]namfonos -1 points0 points ago

what an excellent observation. However,

1) the question was what is the big O run time of the algorithm he provided.

2) he was not using a sorting algorithm. (that would be stupid, wtf would he sort?)

3) basic knowledge of typography is great, but lets face it, this was the first and only time in the history of ever that your knowledge of typography is relevant. Give me your spiel again when her whole head covers the "o". I mean "e".

4) The real answer is actually very simple. The run time is O(1) (read big-Oh of 1. or constant time) This is because there are only 26 letters for him to choose from. 26 is a constant and he can never make more than 26 words. There is also the matter of verifying that the new word formed actually exists in the dictionary in his brain. We can assume his brain dictionary is a Hash Table which luckily also has a O(1) look up time. O(1) + O(1) = O(1)

The space complexity is also the same, O(1). He will never have to store more than 26 words at any given time. And more realistically, he can completely forget about a word if the look up he performed in his brain dictionary is false.

[–]randomsnark 0 points1 point ago

It's O(n) for alphabets of arbitrary size.

[–]namfonos 0 points1 point ago

I can argue that with the fact that each language has a finite and known number of letters. The language with the most amount of letters appears to be cambodian with 74. Even if there was a language that had a million letters it would still be constant. Regardless, O(1) stands for all alphabets.

[–]randomsnark 0 points1 point ago

It stands for any given alphabet, but basically the only way big O notation makes sense here is if it's being applied to the size of the search space. The size of the search space is equal to the number of letters in the alphabet being used, and the search time is linear with regard to that.

Otherwise it's like saying my card sorting algorithm (which is just a special case of bubble sort, but only ever used for cards) is O(1), because there are always 52 cards in a deck. Even for arbitrary decks, it's going to be O(1) for a given size of deck.

[–]frenzyboard 0 points1 point ago

Actually, I work in graphics design. So typography is relevant every day. And anyway, the name of the mag is usually printed inside, in one of the lower corners.

[–]EpsilonNueve 0 points1 point ago

I'm crying with laughter.

[–]_Jairus 0 points1 point ago

These two comments made me lose it.

[–]Simi566 1 point2 points ago

Now I know my Whare Whbre Whcres next time sing with me

[–]mainsworth 3 points4 points ago

You people must suck at Wheel of Fortune.

[–]wolfhound27[S] 32 points33 points ago

It's "Where" magazine from my friend's hotel room. How did no one see the layout issues before going to print?

[–]frenzyboard 25 points26 points ago

it was probably intentional so that it would draw up free advertising.

[–]wolfhound27[S] 11 points12 points ago

it's very suspect, considering the cover photo

[–]wolfhound27[S] -3 points-2 points ago

it's very suspect, considering the cover photo

[–]Swipecat 9 points10 points ago

Then again, people see what they expect. The magazine staff know that it's called Where and they've seen that name in that typeface for years and so their brains fill in the gaps and blind them to alternative interpretations.

[–]jsttsee 9 points10 points ago

The loop on the hidden "e" looks bigger than the exposed second one

[–]aqualink 5 points6 points ago

i made a straight line from the "e" on the right, to the "e" on the left, and it seems like her head just covers it. No shenanigans here http://i.imgur.com/hPT1C.jpg

[–]koosisking 3 points4 points ago

I too thought this; and before finding your comment had shopped the one 'e' over the other. Agree there's no shenanigans: http://imgur.com/Q1pIX

[–]Timzor 7 points8 points ago

Actor Pull?

Look at all these parts!

[–]JamesDauphrey 24 points25 points ago

Well...Orange Country Whore sounds a lot more like a magazine than Orange Country Where.

[–]randomsnark 1 point2 points ago

County. Orange County is just south of Los Angeles.

[–]WildMagnemite 57 points58 points ago

That's whore-ible

[–]damianlz 22 points23 points ago

must have been a whore-iffic accident

[–]FlutterDash00 12 points13 points ago

Let's just ho-pe that.....wait....fuck.

[–]Forhavu 4 points5 points ago

Well this went WHORE pretty well.

[–]MrDuctTape 5 points6 points ago

Just whore-iffying, really.

[–]damianlz 4 points5 points ago

I hope she wasnt serving any whoredurves when they wrote that

[–]MrDuctTape 4 points5 points ago

Pretty soon she'll be feeling better and ready to get back on the whores.

[–]Oxxide 1 point2 points ago

all you had to do was say whore-izontal, man.

[–]Hurriquake 4 points5 points ago

These puns are whorendous.

[–]fire_hawx -1 points0 points ago

Maybe I should change the subject by playing a tune on my whore-monica

No, don't even.

[–]champbronc2 16 points17 points ago

She's gorgeous

[–]smileymalaise 30 points31 points ago

Even whores can be beautiful.

[–]Accipiter1138 23 points24 points ago

The proper term is companion, Mal.

[–]smileymalaise 8 points9 points ago

But... but look at the name of the magazine!

[–]Accipiter1138 12 points13 points ago

Of course a bunch of border-planet people like you wouldn't see the difference.

Now get out of my shuttle.

[–]Verizen 6 points7 points ago

That just puts The Doctors companions in a whole 'nother light.

OOh im from orange county too!

[–]Bearly_Mach 3 points4 points ago

Me too!

[–]Ersh777 7 points8 points ago

I also couldn't figure out the name of the magazine. It looks like the cross-bar on the middle e is either missing or lower than the last e. You should be able to see a thin white line just above the girl's head.

[–]rjlupin86 3 points4 points ago

THIS. The pic must have been edited. If it was an "e" we should see more of the letter above her head.

[–]RHesketh 2 points3 points ago

I wish whores looked this good. Not that I would know!

[–]Yogi_the_duck 1 point2 points ago

As a person from Orange County, I am surprised it's not Whore. Almost disappointed.

[–]Bearly_Mach 2 points3 points ago

I agree. But the girl on the cover isn't tan or fake enough to qualify as such around here.

[–]Yogi_the_duck 0 points1 point ago

Wait... CA or FLA?

[–]Bearly_Mach 1 point2 points ago

CA

[–]SwaggishSociety 1 point2 points ago

FLACA

[–]patellington 1 point2 points ago

VA?

[–]rawrimadinosaur 5 points6 points ago

It says WHORE!

[–]woo36ster 13 points14 points ago

Definitely Whore. The size of the top of the 'o' is larger (even with her head covering it) than the top of the 'e'. size up the empty space. Orange County Whore. Pretty vague magazine if you ask me.

[–]Punchomatic 4 points5 points ago

Came here to post this. The first 'e' is not an e. They did it on purpose. 9/11 was an inside job, etc. etc.

[–]felixnothus 0 points1 point ago

how the fuck did you read that, all I see is a blur.

[–]Phoequinox 1 point2 points ago

[–]Jurph 0 points1 point ago

That's right.

[–]etherealcaitiff 0 points1 point ago

Right there with you, after about 20 seconds I actually said "What else could it be?!?"

Then I realized the error of my derp.

[–]Capnkanis 0 points1 point ago

Shouldda gone with "hooker"... much classier.

[–]kingofthebean 0 points1 point ago

[–]foolishnesss -1 points0 points ago

Who're?????

[–]redditparamedic 0 points1 point ago

Because a magazines cover layout isn't really that important to the readers demographic, right?

[–]RandyMachoManSavage 0 points1 point ago

I can confirm that "Orange County Whore" would be more accurate.

[–]ontheprowl 1 point2 points ago

haha, it's legit. here's the link.

[–]ItsSol 0 points1 point ago

Based on the amount of space above her head compared to the amount in the 'e' I think I'd have to go with whore still

[–]W0RLDWAR2 1 point2 points ago

Hey fellow Costa Mesan! Where do you hail from good sir?

[–]JJBell 1 point2 points ago

Layout mishap?

or

Guaranteed increase in subscriptions?

[–]ileaveupperdeckers 1 point2 points ago

West coast version of the "Rhode Island Slut".

[–]YOalejandro 1 point2 points ago

Mmmm, Memphis at the Lab. That place is one of Costa Mesa's hidden gems.

[–]PLOVAPODA 0 points1 point ago

Orange County Whore. Looks like it's PLOVAPODA 1, wolfhound27 0.

[–]stemgang 0 points1 point ago

For the cover layout designer, that's either a job-stopping error, or no one gives a shit.

Not good either way.

[–]Drink_Clorox_and_Die 0 points1 point ago

I just want someone to tell me that wasn't done on purpose

[–]arachides 1 point2 points ago

So. It's Whore right?

[–]ConantheBarb 0 points1 point ago

I can see the editor of the magazine saying.... "I've made a huge mistake!"

[–]freddytheteddy22 0 points1 point ago

I'm guessing there are fifty. Yes, fifty shades of wine.

[–]barmaxw 1 point2 points ago

IT'S 'WHERE' GUYS

[–]Whaleman1234 0 points1 point ago

ah where...

[–]0hmyscience 0 points1 point ago

[–]bastardfaggot 0 points1 point ago

I guess whoever worked on the cover of that issue just didn't give a goddamn about anything.

[–]hell_kat 0 points1 point ago

That took way too many seconds to get. I kept seeing whore, knowing that was too obvious. Sigh. Time for bed.

[–]lol-i-am-a-banana 0 points1 point ago

Well I'm stumped...

[–]astromets 0 points1 point ago

I thought everyone subscribed to Orange County Whore, you probably just know it by the OCW

[–]Herdsoot -1 points0 points ago

Don't call it that.

[–]jampk24 0 points1 point ago

I think they're trolling us. Looking at the other "e," it seems like we should be able to see the inside of the other "e" getting crossed.

[–]NancyTheDriver 0 points1 point ago

I dont care what anyone says, I see whore

[–]Wicksk 0 points1 point ago

So the guy she cheated on in high school grew up to be a magazine editor.. No big deal it's in the past now.

[–]Ihateloops 1 point2 points ago

"where" is a terrible name for a magazine.

[–]patellington 0 points1 point ago

I live in Orange County...VA...we have the world record for most whores. This is perfect.

[–]AntagonistRoman 0 points1 point ago

Orange Country Whore.

[–]Kevince 1 point2 points ago

Nah, 'where' would be such an odd name for a magazine. 'Whore' is just much more likely.

It has to be!

[–]VitaminAG 0 points1 point ago

Orange County :D

[–]lostonpandora 0 points1 point ago

i gave up..i had to check the comments, but then again, whore seems so much more appealing to read

[–]herroazn 0 points1 point ago

I think they mean 50 shades of wine

[–]tehweave 0 points1 point ago

It isn't whore?

[–]cosby8 0 points1 point ago

the hues in those fashions must be pretty limited because champagne is super close to burgundy. also, that is a nice looking whore.

[–]scarym0nsters 1 point2 points ago

Ah, Costa Mesa. My home.

[–]lomanity 1 point2 points ago

One would assume "whore", because the hole in the last e is smaller than that of the middle letter. Assuming that the font is unchanged, we presume that e's should be the same, and therefore the middle letter cannot be an e.

[–]AlexHeyNa 1 point2 points ago

They clearly did that on purpose. The center of the first 'e' is lower than it is in the second one, making it look like an 'o'.

[–]strikerfm1 0 points1 point ago

Whore.

[–]Cheesle 1 point2 points ago

Shades of wine? Are there 50 of them?

cue sunglasses

[–]TellusCitizen 0 points1 point ago

Seriously don't the editor proof even the cover?!

[–]disasterific 0 points1 point ago

Ahh...Orange County.

[–]anunnymous 1 point2 points ago

how about this

[–]Djifi 0 points1 point ago

I think whoever edited this had hooked up with the model and then she cheated on him and then this. Revenge, yo. Now she's a whore for all to see!

[–]Schobbo 0 points1 point ago

I would rather buy a magazine called "whore" instead of "where". "where" is a really stupid name for a magazine

[–]iatetwogrilledcheese 0 points1 point ago

http://wherela.com/contact/

If you try to email the advertising director on their site page it replies with an email saying she no longer works with the magazine. I honestly wanted to tell her the whore plan worked because look at all this free advertising.

[–]BigFudge_HIMYM 1 point2 points ago

Cartman, I told you your mom is on the cover of crack whore monthly!

[–]jules_am 0 points1 point ago

Orange County! Whore is definitely spot on, see it every day.

[–]MBAfail 1 point2 points ago

I love "Orange County Whore".

[–]eulersbitch 0 points1 point ago

It's Orange county I'm not surprised it took you a minute.

[–]hsvan08 0 points1 point ago

whatever it's suppose to be, the letter behind the head seems more like an 'o' than an 'e'.

[–]Phillip_the_Cat 0 points1 point ago

It's still whore

[–]yelloh 1 point2 points ago

Her face, the subjects... Whore.

[–]paisanwest 0 points1 point ago
