This comment thread on the Skin Horse strip from 2016-05-14 entertained me a great deal, and I couldn't decide on one piece of it to grab:
"Paul Bunyan was really an ordinary-sized mad lumberjack in a giant robot lumberjack suit." -- evilmidnightlurker
"The giant blue ox, though, that was real." -- BrokenEye, the True False Prophet
"Genetically engineered! How else was it blue?" -- DetektheBard
"What other color would it be, if not blue? An ox that big canât possibly be getting proper oxygen flow to its extremities. Square/cube law can be a bitch like that." -- BrokenEye, the True False Prophet
"But there have been plenty of animals of that size who had sufficient blood flow -- just look at the larger dinosaurs." -- D. Walker
"Yes, but dinosaurs naturally had bodily proportions and muscular strength suitable for being that large, rather than just being arbitrarily scaled up versions of smaller creatures.
"If you scaled up dinosaurs, they wouldn't have very good circulation either. St. Bernhards arenât instantly crushed under their own weight, but a mouse the size of a St. Bernhard would be, unless the strength of its heart and the mass of its bone structure were increased exponentially to accommodate." -- BrokenEye, the True False Prophet
It goes on for a couple more comments after that -- enjoy.
