If you were to select the top 5 traits of superior physical strength from 1 each of the 5 strongest species of animals* and/or insects on the planet and could combine them all into the body of one single species/being, which 5 animals* would you select, and what are their 5 separate traits of superior physical strength?

  • Oh you must be looking for some corporate BS, huh?   Yah,  I don't bode well in that useless nonsense.

    When you need something that serves a real function and works efficiently give me a call homie.   I build you a fine machine or a nice new roof. This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at April 10, 2017 3:24 AM MDT

    Not when my Grizzly Crocorilla Beagle has the added capability of flight.  Your Kodiac Firehorse Chimpanerine will easily be carried and efficiently dropped over the Grand Canyon before the fire has even left the building. 

    Goodbye KFC!

  • yeah right.   It's gonna have hollow bird bones if it has any chance of flying.  Kodiclyde will snap that chit before it makes it 40 feet off the ground  and his superior chitin exoskeleton will mean the fall won't phase him.    MEH....  So very MEH

    Sorry but your downfall comes in the chimpanzee and draft horse part of the equation.  The chimpanzee will be so ecstatic over the large member that the draft horse will provide, it will be too busy spanking that monkey to do it's job properly.

    SPLAT KFC!  SPLAT!

  • Example of stupid and arbitrary rule.  Why does that not follow the same rule as if it was Randy's or Bunny's?    STUPID!!!!!

  • Oh I'm sure I heard it already from other people and sources.   It's to avoid confusion over the possessive and contraction since it has no plural use.   That's a silly reason and anyone who would be confused by it has defective brain unable to gather context.  But yes I would like a link to challenge my view.

  • There's no explanation for why "its" should be the possesive though.   Even Randy can't defend the silly rationalizing of it.  English written grammar needs to get its act together and develop concrete rules that make sense.

    Get rid of to whom since to who works just as well
    Let everyone and everybody be interchangeable since they mean the same basic thing
    Make possessives all the same. 
    Get ride of the semi-colon
    Either hyphenate all compound words or no compound words.

  • I'm telling you.  The world needs me as its benevolent tyrant.  I'm the only one able and willing to shift through all this bullchit and get things down to the simple brass tacks.

    Thank you, except for the last entry; that's not an exceptional physical strength. Many animals and insects do the same thing.
