Didn’t you even read every article? It’s resolved. Lions.
Next: Gorilla vs black bear, with the Grizzly waiting in the wings if the blackie is vanquished…
Deb: What are you drawing?
Napoleon Dynamite: A liger.
Deb: What’s a liger?
Napoleon Dynamite: It’s pretty much my favorite animal. It’s like a lion and a tiger mixed… bred for its skills in magic.
Since leucistic cats generally involve serious inbreeding, I think it’s more likely that they’ll both roll around on the ground like doofuses. However, white tigers are bigger than normal tigers, and I’m not seeing any references that white lions are the same. So maybe the tiger could just sit on the lion.

Best new poster to come out of summer 2012.
Isn’t this just a textbook case of monomania?
I once took a photo of a sign hanging on a neighbor’s fence. The sign read:
BEWARE
OF DOG’S
I’m always a little bit happier when I show the photo to someone and they say, “Beware of dog’s what?”, but with most folks it doesn’t even register.
That would explain the content, not the syntax. I think he’s deliberately writing in that odd manner.

Based on years of typos and grammar misses, I don’t normally point them out - but consider how much of this thread is about the overuse of apostrophes, I felt obligated in this case.
I didn’t bother to read his cites, I’m 55 and won’t live long enough. But I think I’ll save the thread for the next time someone on this board asks me for a cite. “Here you go, one of these several hundred links proves my point, the others are about lions and tigers.”
That ought to shut 'em up.
Did anyone bother to point out that lions and tigers will never meet in the wild?
He must have bought the “Big ol’ Box of Apostrophes” at Costco.
Maybe it’s
BEWARE
OF DOG’S
BIGGER, MEANER PAL (WHO IS ALSO A DOG)
All the overuse is causing an apostrophe shortage crisis. And we USED to have a surplus.
You know what? After a long summer full of slogging through shitty threads about racism, rape, and death, to have a little nutjob come along and post immensely silly crap about who wins in a lion vs tiger fight is downright refreshing. Apostrophes be damned! Your servant, My Lord!
Didja check Appostrophe’s ‘R’ Us down at the Appostrophe District?
nice
and you have to salute the energy involved, sheesh.
WHO ATE THE OTHER HALF OF THIS SIGN
Although why you’d put that on a sign, I don’t know.
Amen.
I was even reading through the first posts waiting for the inevitable shit-storm of racists or homophobia or rape to start spewing out. It was like a lovely comedy routine instead. Love it.
All I can say is - My Lord, you rock those hypothetical liger battles.
You’re laughing now, but you won’t be when an equally fanatical Tiger supporter shows up and finds his thread.
Hmmm…I wonder who would win that fight…
