curious: why would the fast animal consider the weapons primitive?

[–] [email protected] 63 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Because they have guns and humans don't?

~~The one where he accidentally attacks the Neutrals by cutting a ribbon wrong and gets court marshaled AKA S02 E02 "Brannigan, Begin Again"~~

Edit: Oops, remembered it wrong! It's S01 E12 "When Aliens Attack"

I just rewatched all of the fox seasons with my gf, were on the movies now, but my god so much of the fox era holds up so well 20 years later.

I like the Hacan of Twilight Imperium. You would expect them to be another Kizin-like race. Nope, merchant traders.

The receiver is backwards and there are two ejection ports.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

The two ports are for faster shooting and the backwards reciever is for faster bluetooth connections.

also, it's a cheetah with red eyes, wearing a jacket, and holding a rifle

Silly me, I thought you were trying to make a picture of an animal with a gun!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 5 months ago

Amusingly, I didn’t have to make this. I just googled “cheetah with rifle” and hundreds of images appeared.
