Replace it with what? Joy at a chance to die for a fulfilling life, surrounded by family and friends? :P

Replace it with Belgium.

I was going to say 'Greater Good' and stroke my forehead menacingly, but that works too.
I... don't see how you can stroke your own forehead menacingly.

You seem to be rubbing at your forehead... do you have a headache?
I have a cure, if you'd like - a boltshell to the noggin should do the trick. I've never heard any complaints after, at least.

It occurs to me to wonder what the Tau version of a runny nose is.

Does their face slit excrete mucus? Can they breath through it? What happens if an insect flies into it? Can they sneeze?

Don't get me started on below-the-belt humour when it comes to Tau.

AFAIK, their face slit doesn't serve the same purpose.

There's unfortunately not actually much info about it. It's probably a nose-analogue, but I don't think it has anything like the same mechanisms; it probably closes up a lot in bad weather or has multiple walls/redundancies, considering they evolved on a desert planet. Also maybe a pheromone gland, but I dunno

Also, they're filthy fucking aliens, whatever evil purpose they use it for is irrelevant.

Hey guys, I'm pretty relaxed when it comes to what we discuss in this thread, but I will ask that people stay nice (or, if sarcastic, be more clear, or at least funnier) and try to make their posts be something more than just referencing the dangly bits. Allright? Cool.

How did we literally skip from one of the most grimdark things in the universe to one of the most noblebright?

Whoever considers gonads to be noblebright clearly never caught a glimpse of human genitalia :v

I don't really like how this thread repeatedly keeps falling into discussing genitalia. It must be either Slaanesh or Tzeentch works...

I'm curious as to how a tank would evolve. Would it climb out of the primordial ooze wiggling it's track-nubs, feeding on smaller jeeps before crawling onto the shore having evolved proper treds?

It's because of all the Greater Wood they promise you. Also, the assumption that Tau are noblebright is making me angry.
