What I like about them is how differently they fought than anyone else. Since they were street fighting delinquents before they became cyborgs, they fought dirty. Freeza was all raw power, but they fought really smart. They’d double-team opponents they already outclassed, and fight with synchronization, always keeping…

Think that the original is bad? Watch the Abridged version. Since I can’t link to a specific time on my tablet, skip to 5:45 for Cell at his “best”

Until you get to sequel materials (like DBZ Online/Xenoverse, which Toriyama himself seems to consider the canon future). There, you’ll find a time-travelling demon who uses both science and magic to create the ultimate being.

I think it’s kinda like why Whitebeard in One Piece has a bare chin and a giant handlebar moustache: There’s one word in the language that could apply to robots and androids both, but we don’t really have an equivalent.

The Borg are really oddly optimistic and naive when you get right down to it. They tell you “Resistance is futile” not to break your spirit or just as a catchphrase. They believe it to be a fact, and inform you of this because even though it’s never really happened, they still hold out hope that someone will accept it…

Well, there’s actually an explanation for that. Don’t know how close to reality it is, but essentially the sample was bad, and the Y chromosome was unsalvageable, so they just copied the X-chromosome.

Didn’t she appear first on X-Men: Evolution?

And now its stuck in your head. Soon you will find yourself drawing stares, and realize you were singing to yourself “Everybody poops, and if they don’t they’re an Android, and should be destroyed.”

Basically, I’m saying they did it to piss fans off and make people hate him more. It also symbolically represented minority (and just plain fun) characters being shoved aside in favor of bland angsty straight white dude protagonists. Again, see: Grimm. Nick Burkhardt is a textbook case.

I thought the first one a clear message was being sent, only not the one you might think.

Can she please wear the hat more often? She wears that hat less than Sherlock!

I get Cumberbatch’s appeal, with that voice and the halo effect, but at least he looks...mammalian, albeit some kind of mustelid. If Gorman has any “look” to him, it’s of the Innsmouth variety.

I would have preferred if the opponent got a brief second wind, attacked him with an all-out combo, and then Jason just punched their head off.

I have this. I’ve had it since I was a kid. While it can be terrifying, once I understood what it was (I’d never told anyone about it, and didn’t read it on the internet until I was 22) it eventually reached the point where it’s more frustrating than anything. I would feel an evil presence, hear voices, see…

Yeah, I was gonna say...he’s actually awful at games, but awful in an incredible, reality-bending way. Tony would say “You only won because of the blue shells—” “That’s everyone’s excuse.” “—that you were dropping from Lakitu’s cloud!” “...It’s a legit tactic.”

Reptilian I get, but good? Yeesh. He always strikes me as some kind of frog-creature only poorly disguised as a human. Like, I would not be the least bit surprised if in the middle of conversation, his tongue shot out and grabbed a fly.

... (the unfortunately named) TNA...

Ever have a joke you know is terrible, but you just have to make it?

I think the fact that there is an actual witch with them positions them as only dealing with the bad ones.
