I didn't believe they could pull off the reasonable lore justification until the final sentence, well played.

I've seen it a few times before this, still incredibly funny.

Agriculture is overrated. Return to the old ways. Chop chop.

Good ol' times

Ok, I actually loved this. Never gotten an explanation for lolification that passed the sniff test before. Also, please dont sniff the lolis. They dont usually like that.

[–] brown567@sh.itjust.works 18 points 2 months ago

Don't sniff dragon lolis, it makes them snackish

"Good morning, Ash, my big 12 year old son, ready to become a Pokemon master!"

"Out you go into the world, alone, just you and an electric mouse!"

3 weeks later

"Hi mom! I'm with a girl and we're hanging with this dude in his 30's named Brock who's totally not a pervert, and a terrorist organization has made me their main enemy."

"That's nice, honey!"

Brock is 15.

Ash was actually only 10 when he was sent out to enjoy a world of animal bloodsport. He is always 10, no matter how many years pass.

how is he ever gonna be the very best that there ever was if he can't live forever and maintain his throne?

Insurance isn't going to cover unless you're older. Too many irresponsible horse riders.

[–] desktop_user@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

so why doesn't the kingdom force it's anti discrimination laws on the horse insurance things?

[–] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The only age discrimination law is towards old people. You can discriminate all you want towards the youth.

So that's why the catholic church want to ban RPGs, they fear we turn into dragons that hunt them for food ?

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 1 points 2 months ago (3 children)

When did the Roman Catholic Church want to ban RPGs?

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Are you not familiar with the satanic panic?

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 2 points 2 months ago

That was mainly perpetuated by crazy Evangelical Protestants, not Roman Catholics

[–] HK65@sopuli.xyz 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

IDK they were a bit upset last time when I brought my emotional support RPG-7 to the Vatican

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

If they didn't want to be a raid dungeon they wouldn't make it look like a raid dungeon.

[–] A7thStone@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Have you heard about all of the loot they hoard? Dragons have nothing on the Vatican.

[–] tatann@lemm.ee -2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Looks like you're ok when people make jokes about atheists but not about the church ;)

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

The joke doesn't make sense because they are likely referring to the Satanic Panic which wasn't the Roman Catholic Church

If you're gonna joke about the Roman Catholic Church, at least do it right

[–] swab148@lemm.ee 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

... and I said to the TSA agent, "Don't touch me there, you're not my priest!"

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 1 points 2 months ago

That's a good one 🤣

[–] Dreaming_Novaling@lemmy.zip 18 points 2 months ago

So glad I clicked on the post, would've missed the absolute ride in the cutoff.

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 14 points 2 months ago

Did not expect the comic to turn into a joke about loli degeneracy
