As I was scanning, I misread it as, "...added a fifth foreskin."

[–] 0ops@piefed.zip 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

That's just gluttonous, nobody needs that many foreskins

They've fought so hard for the other four, not sure why they need to be their own.

Why is Famine on a pale horse instead of Death?

Why is the skeleton with a scythe Famine....?

[–] emergency7922@lemy.lol 7 points 2 weeks ago

I think pestilence is holding the scythe.

It's a bit unclear if it's actually Famine holding it, but if so, it's worth noting that many (most?) famines are the result of poor growing seasons/harvests, so the scythe isn't terribly inappropriate.

The question is why death looks like a marathon runner.

[–] fallaciousBasis@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Would be funnier if it was the Epstein files.

The fifth horseman is Chaos, but he got thrown out with the big syrupy things.
