Zebraforce would be a kickass band name.

[–] fidodo 13 points 10 months ago

All of these would

I was thinking Saturday morning cartoon that lasted 5 episodes.

Who are those 29% who voted for B C and D? Trolls?

[–] rifugee 49 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Or additional dumbasses. Dumbass is not an uncommon trait, after all.

[–] ozymandias117 20 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Tbf, I kind of want to know how much zebraforce my car gets now, though

[–] rifugee 15 points 10 months ago (2 children)

A zebra is closer to the size of a donkey than a horse, and donkeys have about 5 horsepower, so a 200hp car would be about 40zf (zebra force). Also, since horses actually have about 15 horsepower, that same car would be about 13ahp (actual horse power). Llamas are also about the size of a donkey, so probably similar numbers.

But is your donkey a scientist?

[–] rifugee 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

He's a scientologist. Same thing, right?

[–] grue 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

In that case, ask him where Shelly Miscavige is for me.

[–] rifugee 3 points 10 months ago

He says that she's alive and well and has been busy devoting her time to Scientology and is definitely not dead or being held captive or anything, so I shouldn't "worry my pretty head about it, sweet cheeks." I should note that he was born in the 40's.

Horsepower isn't a measure of how much power one horse can produce at any time, but rather over an entire day. It's roughly the number of horses an engine could replace running 24/7.

Running a horse at 15 horsepower would tire it out rather quickly, so you'd need many teams of horses rotated around to maintain 15 horsepower.

Llamathrust needs to replace horsepower.

[–] JeeBaiChow 8 points 10 months ago

Agreed. The ratio is particularly high at maga rallies and anti vaccine drives.

[–] troglodytis 21 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Some humans just want to watch the world burn

[–] foggianism 8 points 10 months ago

I would have voted for Llamathrust, because it's just such a funny word.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago

I wouldn't be surprised if the voting system you see the audience use is completely fake and the graphs are predetermined before the show is taped.

[–] RagingRobot 11 points 10 months ago

It was probably this guy's family sitting out in the audience lol. Must be no horse where they come from.

[–] HonoraryMancunian 9 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

The charitable interpretation is — for maybe some of them anyway — people who wanted to make it look like it wasn't that obvious of an answer and make him feel less bad about it

How to keep the Winamp’s back.

[–] [email protected] 35 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Let's be honest people's brains absolutely can turn off when they appear on a quiz. It's a weird and stressful situation. Especially if you remember that all of your mistakes will be broadcast to millions of people and commented on and intensely scrutinized.

[–] chetradley 14 points 10 months ago (2 children)

What's the excuse for the 29% of the audience?

[–] Aganim 10 points 9 months ago

Trolling. I hope.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago

Nothing. Though I don't think there are any special requirements for one to be in the audience anyway.

[–] AgentGrimstone 34 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I'll give him credit for using a lifeline when he truly needed it. Better to use it and get it right than guess and risk having the game end at the first question.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

That's gonna be all the extra credit that dude ever got

[–] theshoeshiner 24 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Okay but where is Koalamps.

[–] TeckFire 16 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Fun fact:

28 Zebraforce is equivalent to 1 Dragonforce

[–] [email protected] 7 points 9 months ago

Dragonforce is awesome.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 10 months ago

llamathrust feels like an innuendo dan and phil would make in golf with friends

[–] [email protected] 14 points 10 months ago

Let's be charitable and say he was just being arrogant wasting his lifeline on this question to prove he wouldn't need it later.

[–] BustinJiber 9 points 10 months ago

Me when I'm still not sure

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

Donkey Power is an important unit used by Macho Business Donkey Wrestlers.

[–] Got_Bent 3 points 9 months ago

If that show is still a thing, I'd like to see a similar question that includes measures of time such as mooches and heads of lettuce.
