   Because there were so many centaurs roaming the wilderness during the renaissance.

   While not quite as weird, I also saw Eccentrica Gallumbits porn today.

   I never could get the hang of Wednesdays...

   Also, why the hell does it say "See you soon" in Swedish underneath? Centaurs aren't even part of Swedish mythology...

     yeah i saw that and was like WTF.

     There are many swedes in San Diego, but, whaaa?

     sinnesrubbad mytholgi furries.

       Um, is "furries" actually in common use in Sweden?

       If so, well, hello, Apocalypse!

         When Ragnarok comes, Thor will be mightly confused...

         Yeah, there are furries in Sweden, or "pälsare" as they are sometimes known in Swedish.

         Weep, weep for humanity.

     "Vi ses snart" could also be Danish or Norwegian. Passive-reflexive verbs...

   I probably don't really want to know, but how does the hind part of this costume work? Is there someone else in there, or is it just on some kind of armature?

   • ommadawn says:

     the commentary seems to imply it's a centaur on wheels..

   • pavel_lishin says:

     That's why they're recruiting. Everyone gets tired of being the centaur's ass.

     Especially when they go home and the X-rated Centaur festivities begin.

     • gytterberg says:

       I don't know. I mean, if you've got to be one half of a centaur involved in x-rated festivites, would you rather be the half with genitals or the half which just stands around looking uncomfortable and maybe for effect making whatever kind of noises centaurs in love make?

         Not to mention having to fake the faces.

   While we're on the topic of language failures: "Centurion"? Really? The last time I checked, that was a Roman soldier. "Centaur" is a direct derivation of a Greek, not a Latin root, Kèntauroi. The marginally grammatically correct adjectival form would be centauric. While not so glaring as the S-alarm apostrophe, this all leaves one to wonder whether these people have read even a single Real Book not authored by Tolkein.

   • grumpy_sysadmin says:

     Okay, fine, or C. S. Lewis. Still.

       Centurion was what really struck me.

       An alliance for the commander of every hundred centaurs? A MIGHTY HERD indeed!

         I assert that decimation would be too small a culling, percentage-wise.

       As if Tolkien would fuck up language, anyway.

   • gytterberg says:

     15 years ago at 5:56 pm

     It didn't even occur to me that they intended "centurion" to mean "relating to centaurs." I saw the phrase Majestic Centurion Justice Alliance and my Engrish filter went on. It could just as easily said "Ultra Horse Power Team Super X" and it would have made the same amount of sense to me.

       "Into Centipedes? Want to be [one hundredth] of one?"

       • taffer says:

         15 years ago at 8:19 am

         A functional centipede costume would be about 50x better than that centaur costume.

         See also: "Weaselpede."

   i've met this guy personally at various renne faires across the country.

   ...

   back legs don't even move.

     Wait, so he just stands there? Does he have a bucket in the belly somewhere for bio-breaks?

     • krowface says:

       15 years ago at 1:54 pm

       i think he's one of those GOR fanatics.

       he also likes them BBW.

         I really hope that's not meant as an answer to schrodingersgnu's question.

         • krowface says:

           15 years ago at 12:21 pm

           it kinda is.
