You might as well wonder why bird mutants have six limbs, prak.

well, almost, but there's actually a reason to go through the trouble of getting six limbs! You can't fly without wings, and winged arms don't have great manipulation. A horse mutant, or a horse spliced person could have all the speed and endurance without the horse ass!
but, on the other hand, I think the centaur thing is just kind of trite to my mind, because thinking about other 'taurs (spider, big cat, etc.) it doesn't rebel quite so bad...

It works.
EDIT: For the record, I think a lot of people would be accepting of horse ass. The important thing is to not have a horse digestive tract. Seriously, horses shit every 15 seconds.

started reading through questionable content's archives today, and I know the art gets better (when, when does it get better, ugh...)
my real question is, does it ever drop the (mock and teasing though it may be) hipster jabs at people who wear black and listen to music that doesn't sound like it's being sung by cracked out rainbow crapping koalas?

I have no idea what you're talking about, but this made me chuckle.

Yes. In fact, it steadily improves, peaks, and then worsens.

Pokemon. Again.
In Diamond/Pearl/Platinum, there a few pokemon that evolve when they're at Mt. Coronet, because of magnets there, or something.
So when they put out Heartgold and Soulsilver, they make these pokemon evolve somewhere similar in that area, right?
Nope. Fucking nintendo...

Catharz: sounds like they make fun of goths/emos. Who have it coming. But that's... odd. Emos evolved into the modern hipsters, they're the same kind of annoying. So it's odd that a hipster would mock an emo kid, as that's like Charizard saying all Charmanders are clinically retarded. Speaking of which:

Fucking magnets, how do they work? And it's no worse than the "Only found in X game, enjoy trading!" and "Only evolves via trade" ones.
I have been watching the BBC series "Sherlock" lately, and it is completely awesome on every level. Except there I was, thinking "Mmm, more Sherlock tomorrow night at movie night" (Channel 9 bought the rights to it here, with no intention of showing it, just to deny other channels the chance. Luckily there's this thing called the Internet, so fuck you, Channel 9), when I was told "there are only three episodes".
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF-
Worse still is they'll probably start screening Angel. Which is shit, and I've already seen most of it and would rather eat habaneros through my eyes than re-watch.

I agree with that crap. My favorite pokemon for dueling was a Chansey with Minimize, Softboiled, and Seismic Toss. It made all my friends bitch when they saw my Chansey. It seems Nintendo agrees with the bums, because it takes some immense workarounds to give Chansey Seismic Toss nowadays, the bums.

He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull.

Not as much with the computer. The biggest pain in the ass when you're using the computer is getting thing to work properly and finding the codes you need.

Uh, you guys don't even need to bother with the action replay at all. You can make any pokemon you want with pokesav and send it to yourself through the GTS. No flashcard required.

My computer won't read the disc, so I have to tap the entire code out by hand.

This turned up in my e-mail today. See, many moons ago, I was foolish and posted of the Zelda RPG forums, run by one Da'Vane.
Now, turns out Da'Vane is doing other things now.

I love how the top link practically says "ROLEPLAY, not ROLLPLAY, you filthy munchkin!"

Doesn't anyone know the very first thing anyone is going to do when they get an RPG is try to break it? It's similar to how the very first thing most people do in Grand Theft Auto is go beat up a hooker.

Those are the sort of people Da'Vane wouldn't want playing the game. I remember the rationale for some truly shitty Zelda d20 classes was "I don't want every class to have combat abilities because that puts too much emphasis on combat"

...Why would you choose a game system with most of its rules devoted to combat, character level based upon combat effectiveness, and complain that the game was combat oriented?
It's like the people who rave about 4e but never actually use any of the rules in the books in the games they rave about.
