Why does Daphne need to have visible nipples in this?
It’s realistic. You trying to say that you wouldn’t be excited after culling a klan rally?
You have better eyesight than I do. That's one tiny dot of a nipple.
I count 2, plus four counts of murder.
I think the joke here was that, like jimbob in the gif, Daphne wasn't actually being attacked the Klanners at the time. The 'its coming right for me' is being used to justify killing the target(s), the ram(?) in jimbob's case, the Klanners in Daphne.
Also like Jimbob, no crime was depicted in either image, only justified self defense as would be recognized by a jury of their peers.
EDIT: Jimbo not jimbob lmao
I think you may not have the context from that gif. The animal wasn't actually coming right for them, or doing anything other than standing there, it's just being used as a thinly veiled justification to open fire. This is a clip from another part of that episode with the context explained to the kids: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTrMBI5fvfA
I didn’t even realize it was KKK. I thought it was just a dark joke about how the ghosts always being bandits in disguise in the cartoon.
Whoa, not defending. Just making snarky comments.
Quite a story you interpret into that short gif.
They were ghosts, you can't kill someone who's already dead
Somehow her navel is visible through the tube dress as well. Perhaps it just made out of Saran Wrap.
I'm pretty sure this is a rough draft. Artists use these markers for correct proportions and take them out with the finished product. But many things of this sketch look unfinished.
not to mention the belly button that is somehow part of her dress
You mean, like this? Or this? I found better examples on my web search, but they appeared to be from personal sites, and I wasn't broadcasting that.
There are curves etc. around the belly button that will stretch and twist fabric like that, particularly if they're somewhat tight. Weight doesn't have a large bearing on it, but lighting will make it more or less obvious. If you can see it in staged pictures, you will see it in more casual settings. And it's not too surprising an artist would notice details like that.
Maybe the artist likes nipples? Can't blame them really
Why not
Because women have nipples
Daphne doesnt believe in bras.
But we're fine with the gun and murder?
Understand the way in which people commonly use iconic media figures in artistic, subversive ways to parody and highlight social issues. It's a human thing, humans do it.
You gotta try to fit in y'know.
Yep, fine with the justified homicide of klansmen.
