How can someone think "You move like a pregnant cow!&#34

Post » Tue Nov 02, 2010 4:18 pm

And the most uncanny twist is...



THE COWS USE SPEARS
(okay those were voulge/bardiche but whatever still look spear-y enough to me)


http://www.google.bg/images?hl=bg&source=imghp&biw=1111&bih=445&q=voulge&gbv=2&aq=f&aqi=g10&aql=&oq= and Halberds not spears ;)

I think the question is how a cow can walk on two legs and hold a polearm at the same time with it's hoofs? :lol:

They are not actually cows, btw - no udders! They are bovines, hehe

EDIT: LOL the ninja text got me, read it too late haha

Not all things that exist in Tamriel are seen in game.

The game is kind of like a condensed down version of Tamriel, with only the things of interest to the gamer in.
The imperial city is much larger than what we saw of it. It was only a representation.
There are lots of things Tamriel has that we never get to do, such as pay taxes.

There also must have been cows, because there was beef.

I do like non hostile creatures though. The netch and tame guar from Morrowind, the sheep and deer from Oblivion.
I hope Skyrim includes some types of tame animals.


then why did we have sheep? or deer? dogs? and several other animals...

they didnt do anything more than what cows would've been used for... so stop making excuses, there is absolutely no reason to leave cows out if they are used in insults.

I think they had more important things than cows to think about.......They were designing a game for a console that wasn't out at the time, and making a massive game. I don't think cows make or break a game...............

Really? Cows have been referenced before that insult. But something has to be included if it's mentioned at all? Ugh. Your logic makes no sense at all whatsoever.

For the love of Azura, you guys, is this really what the Skyrim general discussion has become? An argument about COWS?

I second this.

Please no more mentioning cows, let's focus on insults that should be used in Skyrim.

Nord to anyone: You're about to go the way of the Snow Elves!

That's really all I've got. I've only came up with five, this is harder than I thought it would be.....

I love the fact that people are arguing about the existence of cows. Remember that cow refers to any large slow moving female - female moose? cow, female hippo? cow . Mother in law (presumably female) cow. To call someone a cow is to infer that they're a slow female. Probably including betty netches

I'm surprised nobody's brought it up yet, but where did the beef in Oblivion come from?

But then where do the people in Cyrodiil keep the cows? It's like how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop, the world may never know...

Jump on my Willie while you can! :D

Cows are there. But they are invisible, just like dragons in Morrowind. Ask M'aiq.

Who says the people of Cyrodiil keep cows at all? Plus, where are the children? They obviously exist, they're referenced numerous times, you just can't see any yourself for multiple reasons. Is that so hard?

It's a video game. You have to suspend your disbelief.

Relax, you're taking this way too seriously.

I was joking, I'm well aware it's a game.

There were no women in the game by that logic too then, and there were no men either. After all the humanoids in TES are not called "Humans" and the female Minataurs are ofc not called "Cows" either then, oh but we did have "Bulls".

I suppose we don′t have any Tom′s or Molly′s either then, Khajiit are not like "IRL" cats after all.

How? And this is not the only completely ruined dialog in Oblivion... "Exhausted Mine is southeast of here." when it is south west... I've also heard opponents wielding axes say "Jump on my sword while you can!" Please make some better dialog as this is quite annoying...

I liken it to B movies where it's so bad it's funny.

As for a cow, female whales and walruses are called cows. They are northern or arctic animals, therefore they could fit your request. Cows are more than just bovine creatures.

WHAT?!?! So by creating the most epic player ever(Heavy Armor 100, Blade 100, Armorer 80 or so), I missed out on all of the funny stuff? I just killed the bandits in like 10 seconds. I gave them no time to do anything, much less say "You're a pregna-"

Maybe it's "You move like a pregnant cow(ard)"

and for that : "Jump on my sword while you can!"... well, sword might mean something alse... (yes, I'm talking about that)


You sick, perverted little son of a biscuit... no one thinks that is possibly what it could have meant. "Bastard! Rank Amateur!" :flamethrower: :tongue:
