i like how the creature smart enough to get a weapon is the one assumed to be dumb enough to fight its opponent in the only conceivable environment that would be a disadvantage

"taur" refers to a bull

Either your joking or your knowledge of mythological creatures is sorely lacking.

argh, you're.

wow btwn jj and hi dere fence-sitting on the green/brown banana question and now pash lolling @ this, i'm beginning to think that perhaps ILX mods aren't really in touch with the vital issues for the ilxor on the street.

Don't get this - the Minotaur was half bull, not half horse, so surely sarahel's point stands?

emil.y, Thursday, 1 July 2010 11:42 (thirteen years ago) link

Yeah but centaurs...

Adge Cutler & the Özils (NickB), Thursday, 1 July 2010 11:52 (thirteen years ago) link

Centaurs aren't real, tho

,,,,,,eeeeleon (darraghmac), Thursday, 1 July 2010 11:54 (thirteen years ago) link

But it doesn't follow the same word creation rule! It would be BEARTAUR.

emil.y, Thursday, 1 July 2010 11:55 (thirteen years ago) link

Unless it is Mr. Bear O'Taur, perhaps.

emil.y, Thursday, 1 July 2010 11:56 (thirteen years ago) link

fucking blame it on the irish, i see what's happening here

,,,,,,eeeeleon (darraghmac), Thursday, 1 July 2010 11:58 (thirteen years ago) link

So, even if the etymology of bearotaur is from centaur rather than Minotaur (which I doubt very much, from the appended 'o'), the name STILL means 'bear-bull', 'centaur' most likely meaning 'bull-slayer'. So the bearotaur proves himself even weaker, having had to have the 'slayer' part of his name removed... BECAUSE HE IS A WUSS.

emil.y, Thursday, 1 July 2010 12:02 (thirteen years ago) link

The 'o' represents their fondness for onion rings.

Adge Cutler & the Özils (NickB), Thursday, 1 July 2010 12:06 (thirteen years ago) link

'o' is the face you pull just before he pulls your face off

,,,,,,eeeeleon (darraghmac), Thursday, 1 July 2010 12:13 (thirteen years ago) link

you can explain your dismissal of the etymology of his name while he kicks your jaw in to space.

Jarlrmai, Thursday, 1 July 2010 18:22 (thirteen years ago) link

Ha, I just noticed the furry fin on bearsharktopus' back. He wins, based on that.

dead flower :( (Pashmina), Thursday, 1 July 2010 18:36 (thirteen years ago) link

how a fight would go.

AWESOME

Kool G. Frap (jjjusten), Thursday, 1 July 2010 18:39 (thirteen years ago) link

also, accurate

Kool G. Frap (jjjusten), Thursday, 1 July 2010 18:39 (thirteen years ago) link

self-mutilatipon? that's what your guy's gonna win with?

,,,,,,eeeeleon (darraghmac), Thursday, 1 July 2010 18:58 (thirteen years ago) link

i dunno what i just typed tbh

,,,,,,eeeeleon (darraghmac), Thursday, 1 July 2010 18:58 (thirteen years ago) link

self mutilation - and apparently fursharkpus is eating a giant sperm.
Bearotuar should have won by a wider margin if that's how things are gonna play out.

The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall, Thursday, 1 July 2010 19:12 (thirteen years ago) link

atipon- a suffix meaning furry fin or tentacle

peacocks, Thursday, 1 July 2010 19:13 (thirteen years ago) link

atampon - a suffix referring to a popular feminine hygience product

Philip you have taken this thread to a new level! Awesome!

Also - BEARSHARKTOPUS FTW!!!!!!!!

sarahel, Thursday, 1 July 2010 19:25 (thirteen years ago) link

god bless you you fantastic man

would buy in tshirt form. not kidding.

wow that picture raises a terrifying thought - what if bearsharktopus and bearotaur joined forces and bearsharktopus rode bearotaur into battle?

got you all in ♜ ♔ (dyao), Thursday, 1 July 2010 19:35 (thirteen years ago) link

aw, shucks. thanks folks!

BTW I stole 'where your mace at? HAW HAW HAW!' from the new yorker caption contest.

Philip Nunez, Thursday, 1 July 2010 19:37 (thirteen years ago) link

is really what would happen tho

,,,,,,eeeeleon (darraghmac), Thursday, 1 July 2010 19:41 (thirteen years ago) link

bearotaur covering his eyes in the 1st philip drawing is the best part tho

good news if you wear cargo shorts (contenderizer), Thursday, 1 July 2010 19:41 (thirteen years ago) link

I agree

peacocks, Thursday, 1 July 2010 19:42 (thirteen years ago) link

also it doesn't look like bearshartopus is that hurt. slightly annoyed is what I get from that picture.

peacocks, Thursday, 1 July 2010 19:43 (thirteen years ago) link

xp - that is so not what would happen:

bearsharktopus would not be facing the opposite direction and would not be standing up while in the water!

sarahel, Thursday, 1 July 2010 19:44 (thirteen years ago) link

he's been flanked but the superior speed of bearotaur. if he spins too quickly he falls over, because he is a rubbish monster

jeez the shark face isn't the most expressive of canvases fyi

,,,,,,eeeeleon (darraghmac), Thursday, 1 July 2010 19:49 (thirteen years ago) link

it's bearsharktopus, not bearshartopus!

sarahel, Thursday, 1 July 2010 19:50 (thirteen years ago) link

also it doesn't look like bearshartopus is that hurt.

please please tell me this was intentional and not a typo, becuase +1 to you if so

xpost

BEAROTAURDED (jjjusten), Thursday, 1 July 2010 19:50 (thirteen years ago) link

but doesn't bearsharktopus have sharkspeed sandals that give him combat advantage when flanked?

peacocks, Thursday, 1 July 2010 19:50 (thirteen years ago) link

also lets be fair, bearshartopus would not win in any fight.

BEAROTAURDED (jjjusten), Thursday, 1 July 2010 19:51 (thirteen years ago) link

bearsharktopus can swim ffs!
