Would a centaur do this?

[Fudgey]

Here's what I'm wondering. Let's say a centaur (half man/half horse) does its business. Does it wipe itself off afterwards?

For one thing, it would have to reach pretty far, which I imagine could be more trouble than its worth. Come to think of it I don't even think it could all the way back to its horse butt with its man hands.

And besides, horses don't wipe up afterwards anyway crapping, so I bet the centaur would get some slack in that department.

:dunno:

Maybe the answer lies in the question of what a unicorn would do. The way I figure it, a unicorn horn would have approximately the same reach as a centaur's arm.

But now that I think about it, maybe the centaurs help each other out? I mean, they've obviously got a human-like brain, considering they have a human head, and therefore we should expect them to care simiarly about their personal hygiene. In other words, Fudgey, I don't think we should be giving centaurs any "slack" in the butt-wiping department.

Here's a conceptual drawing I made of how the unicorn method might (or might not) work:

DLeg, that looks like a 75% plan set. When can we expect the 95% version we can submit?

Okay, next question. How does the unicorn clean his horn after this procedure?

 

[Capt Worley PE]

Wipes it on the centaur's fur, duh!

 

[RIP - VTEnviro]

wouldn't that poke more holes in the centaur though?

 

[bigray76]

^^^Not if the unicorn only would move his head back, not forward, while wiping off the horn.

If he is lucky, he could get the centaur to spit on his horn to help clean it off, or the centaur could use his arms to wipe off the horn with a towel.

or the centaur could use his arms to wipe off the horn with a towel.

WINNER! :multiplespotting:

Now this is HOF worthy.

If you couldn't see it DIAZWV, here's the original microsoft paint file.

VT - what the hell are you talking about 75%??? That there is a 100% final, approved for construction!

Edit: Holy shit! The bmp is 900 kb! WTF!!!!!! Mods - please feel free to delete and I will upload the jpeg, which is only 24 kb [SIZE=8pt](I deleted it myself - no point to having it on here).[/SIZE]

Now, the question becomes "How does the unicorn wipe its own ass?"

Upon further reflection, I think I have answered my own question:
