Are Furries just Wannabe-Therianthropes?

[SotiCoto]

That particular species of furry doesn't have a tail. No problem there. And I'm going to assume the neck connects to the skull in a similar way to that of humans. Anyhow, further exploration of the artist's site reveals some very talented work, regardless of whether it is perfect according to physics.

I wouldn't doubt that.
I do note though that art and science rarely mix well. Needless to say I feel better thinking about this provided it is primarily on the art side.
Were I to consider the science side of things then several years of biology lectures would arm themselves to the teeth and move into attack position.... and that wouldn't do at all.

Also, perhaps some of the conversations in these comics have been "translated" for the benefit of readers...?
If they were speaking their own language, most readers would not be able to make much if any sense of what was happening.

Oh so true...
But that said, when I finally get around to making the webcomic that I personally have been planning for years (it will happen eventually)... I have every intention of having entire strips in Welsh primarily for the purpose of confusing readers.

My own writings are scattered with Spanish, Japanese, even minuscule amounts of French an German, and even a language I created, sometimes even in the same sentence. And then there are the strangely phrased conversations some characters have.
Sanity: "I would, if she were what I am, or I were what she is."
Ginger: "Come again?"
Sanity: "I am already here."
EDIT: Sanity was named for a distinct lack of the quality, or so they say.

This is exactly the kind of conversation that I had hoped not to come back to. Partly because so many chances for sarcastic comments have been lost due to my absence. Also, because its weird and filled with exploding genitals.

This thread is still on topic? You guys are seriously loosing your touch...

[KJ Fellie]

Well, it was off topic for a while, but I distracted it back on topic.

[Angstwolf]

Let's talk about cornucopias instead.

[KJ Fellie]

I've always associated a cornucopia with thanksgiving. You often see pictures of them on a table or something, stuffed full of food (usually fruits and vegetables).

[Angstwolf]

Yeah, I associate them with Thanksgiving too. But also with kindergarten. We had to make these pilgrim hats with little felt buckles and then the teacher put a cornucopia in the center of a table and took the class's picture sitting at the table. I don't know why, but that memory has stuck with me. D:

[KJ Fellie]

I think that's about the time I learned to associate them with thanksgiving. Lots of pictures of them about.

In Britain (a.k.a. the country of real English) the word cornucopia is generally used in reference not to the mythological 'horn of plenty' but rather to an abundant supply, for example this thread holds a cornucopia of consecutive quotations.

I have never heard it used in the sense of a ceremonial symbol where I live. Bzzt.

I wouldn't call Britian the land of real English since they seem to have different dialects every couple hundred miles and by different dialect I mean every single word is different and you can't understand anything anybody says.

That was no quote train. That was a quote barge.

This is true.

The thing is, I'm sure I'd understand that if I knew the context...
I had my own language once... sort of. It was called UFL, because it was meant to be Universal and exceptionally easy to understand. I kinda got bored of it after a few words though and settled for speaking in Lolcat.

I thought cornucopias were unpleasant growths on the sole of the foot.
.... And no, I haven't failed at understanding the word; merely Won at redefining it.

BBC English is real English.
The Queen's English is real English.
The rest doesn't matter so much. I don't speak Brummie, Lancie, Scouser nor Geordie... so I don't much care about 'em.
