No, that's not a trick of the stage lights, the saxophone player's t-shirt appears to be a "Wearable" where the graphic is responding like an old WinAmp Visual.

You see a mousetrap? I see free cheese and a f$%^ing challenge.

Some players know that I have them on ignore and are likely to make posts knowing that is the case.

But the fact that I have them on ignore won't stop some of them from bullying and harassing people, because some of them love to do it. There is a group that have banded together to target forum posters they don't like. They think that this behavior is acceptable.

Ignore (in the forums) and /ignore (in-game) are tools to improve your gaming experience. Don't feel bad about using them.

I surprised myself by belting out this random bit of schmalz while driving home today (and I surprised myself even more by knowing a good chunk of the lyrics), so I figured I'd share.

 

The original, that is.  Not my, uh, "rendition."

 

Please accept my apologies if you wanted that instead.

I guess J2TW doesn't allow them to fly, for the same reason Gandalf doesn't let Frodo hitch a ride with the Eagles and just drop the damn thing straight into Mount Doom. Never gonna get 3 books and a movie series out of that...

I love both themes to Monkey. 🙂

Read the book, but at no point do they say it is winged. It was, however, trapped in the form of a white horse for the entirety of the main storyline in the book. It being a dragon trapped in the form of a white horse.

In fact, most Chinese Dragons don't have wings.

 

I tried tracking down a picture of said Horse Dragon, and the only one that looked like it might be historical at all was the one that I pictured that ended up coming from the wiki site. Most of all of the other ones were modern images, and I agree that some of them did have wings (other didn't).

 

I do think that it may have been indicated that the horse could fly by cloud treading, but simply because something can fly does not necessarily mean it has wings. I think that. in many cultures, it is assumed that something can fly through the air must have wings ... and that is why I went looking for classical images of Long Ma. That is to say, over time, things that can fly can have wings assigned to them when the original source doesn't say anything about them having wings but instead simply indicate that they can fly.

 

 

But I can yield to your point, but it is a bit like calling the Triads the Chinese Mafia.

I think Qilin is the Chinese version and Kirin/Girin is the Japanese/Korean version, which looks a bit more like a deer. With a beard. And mostly on fire.

Reminds me. Haven't had a Kirin in a while, and now I want the good sushi, dammit.
