Officially the first post I really laughed on lemmy! The future seems bright! 🀣

Neither, a centaur has a human torso starting at the base of the neck, the left one has a long neck so clearly not a human torso. The left one has a long torso, so that doesn't fit either.

Solution: it'd be exactly like a regular centaur but with a different skin pattern

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

Much taller legs

[–] portuga 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

We’d have to start evolution again because all mammals have four limbs, and four only. That’s why we can’t have pegasus (pegasi?) either. Bummer, I know.

[–] udon 2 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Isn't a pegasus a bird? Would that mean that they lay eggs?

[–] portuga 2 points 1 day ago

You may be on to something

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot 1 points 1 day ago

Pegasus is what happens when Zeus and Loki fuck.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Biology definitions are not based in causation, it wouldn't lay eggs just cuz we call it a bird. It might be like the anti-platypus tho, the only bird to give birth to live young

[–] Pirky 96 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (6 children)

The left one. It's the Giraffe's neck that's long. Not their torso.

Edit: See Derpleton from Centaurworld.

[–] FilthyShrooms 35 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Counterargument: a centaur is a human torso on a horse's neck, so it's the right one

[–] BatmanAoD 5 points 1 day ago (2 children)

But the human portion has normal human proportions (though potentially scaled up a little). Why would being on a giraffe's body change that?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Exactly, the left one warps the human proportions while the right one extends the giraffe neck that connects with the human torso. The right one is more natural.

[–] BatmanAoD 1 points 1 day ago
[–] FilthyShrooms 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Because the one on the right is funnier

[–] bitwaba 2 points 1 day ago (2 children)

A giraffe is a horse with a long neck.

A giraffe centaur is a centaur with a long neck.

QED

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

A centaur is a horse with human torso after the neck, so a giraffe centaur is a horse with a long neck and a human torso after the neck. Right is justice.

[–] portuga 2 points 1 day ago

What if horses are instead giraffes with short necks? Checkmate atheists

I say the left but double the length of the arms.

What in the fresh hell is this? πŸ’€

[–] finitebanjo 23 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Centaur World is a story about a war horse that accidentally falls into Centaur World full of happy cartoon centaurs that happen to speak horse or whatever.

[–] FenrirIII 3 points 1 day ago

They speak English. Horse is magicked with the ability to speak by going to CW

[–] Pirky 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That's Derpleton from Centaurworld. Is a weird, but good show. Would recommend.

[–] captainlezbian 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I felt ridiculous watching it but it was so good. It’s the sort of show I plan to pull out to be the fun aunt alongside Avatar. I didn’t expect for it to make me cry but it did

[–] ynthrepic 11 points 1 day ago

Centaur World is incredible. Best kids show I've seen as an adult. They need your viewership to make more crazy stuff.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

Came here to post this

[–] BowtiesAreCool 34 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Centaurs don’t have horse necks so neither is right. It would be the body of a giraffe with a human torso starting where the neck would start

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

But is the human torso going to be hella long like the example on the right? That's not a neck. That's a long abdomen.

[–] Cort 8 points 1 day ago

Nah, just like a normal centaur but with long spindly giraffe legs

[–] udon 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Why not scale up the size of the human so it fits with both solutions?

[–] portuga 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It’s funnier this way?

[–] udon 1 points 1 day ago

I think a huge human torso on top of a giraffe could also look funny enough

[–] wjrii 26 points 2 days ago (5 children)

Neither. The neck is the long part, and do horse-based centaurs have horse necks?

Giraffe centaurs would be underwhelming.

[–] WorkIsSlow 11 points 2 days ago

Fuck, this really opened my eyes. You ruined giraffe centaurs for me. D:

Now do giraffe fauns. At least giraffe centaurs have those counterbalancing rear legs, giraffe fauns would need to be half as wide as they are tall to have abs strong enough to keep themselves upright. And with those tiny spindly legs they have, even if they do leg day religiously and bulk them up they'll still be teetering about on two little hooves.

What if he wore pants?

[–] kemsat 4 points 1 day ago

The right one. A centaur is a horse with a human torso replacing the horse’s neck & head. So it’s one of those humans with the long torso, you know the type.

[–] bruhduh 4 points 1 day ago

Like it or not, this is peak male performance

[–] roguetrick 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Giraffes are Artiodactyla like cattle so they would be closer in minotaur style than the Perissodactyla centaur style. Two hoofed legs, human upper body, long neck and giraffe head.

Speaking of Perissodactyla, this guy essentially is a fantasy creature. He's the centaur she told you not to worry about.

[–] IMNOTCRAZYINSTITUTION 8 points 2 days ago

the left one would look sick with some shades
