Funny / Serina

Unmarked spoilers below.

---

• Nest goblins being brood parasites that induce sparrowgulls to abandon their own chicks to feed them? Not funny. Nest goblins growing ridiculously fat◊ as a result of free meals without having to move and only then mating? Hilarious.
• The Serinan Bullworm. Let's be honest, we all giggled when we saw that name.
• The rabbit-like Smeerp.
• The family antics of the Squork are funny and adorable to behold, with the parents often struggling to keep their rowdy youngsters well-behaved.
• As horrifying as the Repandor's stretching jaw is, it's also so over-the-top that it can go way past scary and straight onto Narm.
• The bird called the "Neckbeard".
  • The lineage ends up creating an animal called the Euphoric Boomerbird
• The lumphead grumpus, a large swordwhale fish, has a hilarious and strangely-endearing cranky expression with the same energy of a grumpy old man annoyed with nwighborhood kids on his property.
• The scorplear, a small antlear that walks on its ears while raising its hind leg like a scorpion-like tail, is a fan-submitted concept canonized by Sheather. Originally submitted as a joke, it somehow ended up becoming a canon species where even Sheather calls it "the most cursed circuagodont ever". The official artwork even retains the original extremely derpy concept sketch.
• While played off as a dramatic arms race between two parties struggling to survive in a dying world, the war between the Antlears and the Gravediggers is described as the Gravediggers building elaborate and even absurd traps and the Antlears learning to evade and disable them, which is a bit Hilarious in Hindsight to those familiar with the Coyote and Roadrunner cartoons.
• Gravediggers being very antisocial but instead communicate through "message boards" scratched out on trees has some factor resembling social media, especially funnier with the idea that they use it to relay new events such as the killing of an enemy or the birth of an offspring, which may as well be the bird-badger equivalent of making Facebook status updates.
• Woodcrafter culture revolves around territorial posturing between males, which, while no longer a rite for mate selection, still makes some males more popular similar to human celebrities, with the very idea of an antlear celebrity with his fangirls is an amusing thought.
• The older Woodcrafter fawn in Stronger Together is making their own addition to the tree-stump art: the equivalent of a child's stick figure.
• The two gravediggers in "Talking Whales" to make contact with the Daydreamers are hilariously just looking at one another with baffled expressions, as if to say "What the actual hell are we seeing right now?" It's even better in context, as it comes immediately after the fishers' dire warning about the warmongers, depicted in an increasingly nightmarish set of images.
• The new Golden Age image of the Gravediggers and united Daydreamers is both this and Heartwarming, with commenters on the Deviantart post drawing humorous comparisons to Moana.
• The death of the last circuagodog at the end of a wumpo's club is a solemn affair, but fans were quick to riff on the scissorjaw getting bonked and sent to horny stars.
• The entry for the aukvultures includes a drawing of a Gravedigger playing fetch with one of them. Both adorable and hilarious - Keep in mind that aukvultures are the largest scavengers of the Late Ocean Age and absolutely dwarf the Gravediggers.
  Wouldn't you play fetch with a giant friendly dragon if you could?
• This masterpiece, courtesy of Tribbetherium, riffing on the MordeTwi meme.
  • Tribbetherium also posted his own unique (and possibly Stealth Punny) take on the last moments of Brighteye— one that is surprisingly true to the original scene.
• Two of the animals in the Hothouse Age are the giant trunked sealump called the heffalump and the small venomous skuorc called the woozle. They also both have a taste for honey.
• The existence of an animal named the "wild pug". Even funnier when you realise it's pretty much the Serinan equivalent of a honey badger.
