Ligers are Real

Speaking of Goats, Did You Know Ligers are Real?

a LIGER


Yeah. No kidding.

A few years ago I was watching this crappy movie somewhere called Napolean Dynamo or something. It was pretty boring. But sometime during the movie the lead character mentioned that his favorite animal was a liger. He was drawing one. He said it was a combination of a Lion and a Tiger. He also said it was better than a tigon, which is a combination of a Tiger and a Lion.

Since it was a movie, and movies are usually make-believe, I just disregarded it and went on with my life.

Then the other day I was having a conversation somewhere (I can't remember with who), and they told me that ligers are real.

I couldn't believe it so I asked the internets.

Ligers are real!!!

Apparently they're big, too. Real big, like bigger than a truck.

You can read all about them here. You can also read about tigons, ti-ligers, li-tigons, ti-jackalopes, and all kind of other interesting characters.

wow.

wow!

Just so you know…Napoleon never mentions a “tigon” so please don’t misquote the best movie ever. And I’m pretty sure Napoleon might be a bigger man than you because I’m pretty sure HE never got a pedicure!!!

(Lucas made me put in the part about the pedicure…but seriously don’t diss Napoleon or I’ll have to come over there and kick your butt…you know I’ve been training as a cage fighter…)

dan doesn’t even have any bo-hunting skills. if he ever got cornered by a liger, he would not get help from shannon (and her cage fighting skills), nor would he get any Kiss kiss, hug hug, kiss kiss, hug hug. Big kiss, little kiss, big hug, little hug, little kiss from nachooooooooo, nor would he get any help from the greatest ninja with a bo ever, donatello. all because he called napoleon dynamite crappy. you, my friend are asking for it.

ND was the most boring movie I’ve ever seen. But people tell me I need to see it a second time… Anyway, I did know that ligers and tigons exist! And you shouldn’t be surprised.

Ugh! Idiot! Gosh Dan, Napoleon Dynamite (who are you kidding, acting like you don’t remember the title) was one of my favorite movies of all time. I saw it four times in the Theater, own it on DVD and will buy it on Blu-ray when it comes out.

“Since it was a movie, and movies are usually make-believe, I just disregarded it and went on with my life.”—- Yet it is now several years later and this is obviously still on your mind, just admit it, you secretly in love ND and your tired of lying to yourself and others. Just tell all of us that you really love the movie and that you also like to get Pedicures.

What is your problem? Napolean Dynamite is one of the greatest comedies since the Naked Gun movies. They don’t make great comedies any more. Your dislike of the movie causes me to believe the Canadian air is too thin.

oh sorry.. I wasn’t saying ND wasn’t a great comedy or anything, just that it was boring and not funny. I’ll be more clear next time.
