Officially the first post I really laughed on lemmy! The future seems bright! 🤣
The left one. It’s the Giraffe’s neck that’s long. Not their torso.
Edit: See Derpleton from Centaurworld.
Counterargument: a centaur is a human torso on a horse’s neck, so it’s the right one
But the human portion has normal human proportions (though potentially scaled up a little). Why would being on a giraffe’s body change that?
Because the one on the right is funnier
A giraffe is a horse with a long neck.
A giraffe centaur is a centaur with a long neck.
QED
What if horses are instead giraffes with short necks? Checkmate atheists
How does he pick his nose or brush his teeth?
Giraffes have extremely long tongues
that neck
What in the fresh hell is this? 💀
Centaur World is a story about a war horse that accidentally falls into Centaur World full of happy cartoon centaurs that happen to speak horse or whatever.
They speak English. Horse is magicked with the ability to speak by going to CW
That’s Derpleton from Centaurworld. Is a weird, but good show. Would recommend.
I felt ridiculous watching it but it was so good. It’s the sort of show I plan to pull out to be the fun aunt alongside Avatar. I didn’t expect for it to make me cry but it did
Centaur World is incredible. Best kids show I’ve seen as an adult. They need your viewership to make more crazy stuff.
Too many pixels I can’t understand what I’m looking at
Centaurs don’t have horse necks so neither is right. It would be the body of a giraffe with a human torso starting where the neck would start
bro how did I get sensory overload from a black and white image
Bloody One Piece.
That’s why I read this shit with fan colorings. I think my brain would literally not be able to process what’s going on without it
wat
Neither. The neck is the long part, and do horse-based centaurs have horse necks?
Giraffe centaurs would be underwhelming.
Fuck, this really opened my eyes. You ruined giraffe centaurs for me. D:
Neither, a centaur has a human torso starting at the base of the neck, the left one has a long neck so clearly not a human torso. The left one has a long torso, so that doesn’t fit either.
Solution: it’d be exactly like a regular centaur but with a different skin pattern
We’d have to start evolution again because all mammals have four limbs, and four only. That’s why we can’t have pegasus (pegasi?) either. Bummer, I know.
Isn’t a pegasus a bird? Would that mean that they lay eggs?
Pegasus is what happens when Zeus and Loki fuck.
You may be on to something
the left one would look sick with some shades
Hands would be a lot less evolutionarily useful if they couldn’t reach your mouth.
Like it or not, this is peak male performance
Why not scale up the size of the human so it fits with both solutions?
It’s funnier this way?
I think a huge human torso on top of a giraffe could also look funny enough
bonus question: where’s the nipples?
Left is more natural. Evolution wouldn’t waste time lifting that much mass making the creature top heavy unless it had an absurdly good reason to.
The reason is right here; us experiencing it.
The right one. A centaur is a horse with a human torso replacing the horse’s neck & head. So it’s one of those humans with the long torso, you know the type.
