I gotta make an RPG that features thr 4 elemelons featuring the 4 element buffalo's.

[-] Mothra@mander.xyz 7 points 2 weeks ago

The buffalos get their element after consumption of their elemelon of choice in a rite of passage.

The windmelon gives you buffalo wings.

Buffalo wings give me windmelon

[-] Mothra@mander.xyz 2 points 2 weeks ago

So the windmelon is what red bull is made of?

[-] wieson@feddit.org 5 points 2 weeks ago

Water buffalo
Earth buffalo = bison/wisent
Fire buffalo = cape buffalo
Wind buffalo = yak

I feel like Captain Melons is probably a soft porn from the eighties

[-] PlainSimpleGarak@lemmings.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Captain Planet, mother fucker. Don't summon me again, unless you ready for that pain.

[-] beliquititious 12 points 2 weeks ago

So we rename peppers to firemelons, beans to windmelons, and potatoes to earthmelons. Seems simple enough

They’re all here. Literally called “Elemelons” on this site. Someone’s already figured them out for you.

[-] Sumocat@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

The plural of elemelon should be elemenōpē.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

That’s cantaloupe

Watermelon: As expected Earthmelon: Potato Firemelon: Red chilies Airmelon: ??

[-] flicker@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 weeks ago

I am on painkillers and I submit that airmelon should be a marshmallow. Really break the mold.

No compression artifcacts or cropping. Must be a restoration of the original antique image macro.

The menace of the melon lord must be defeated

[-] lobut@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 weeks ago

In Chinese, there's "kinda" 3 out of the 4 directions for melons:

东瓜 (dōng guā) - East Melon - Winter Melon
西瓜 (xī guā) - West Melon - Watermelon
南瓜 (nán guā) - South Melon - Pumpkin (although it doesn't necessarily refer to south)

and there is no 北瓜 (běi guā) - North Melon (at least not to my knowledge)

[-] psx_crab@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 weeks ago

Just about to say this lmao

But i did a search anyway, and based on article below seems like in china in some place they have different 北瓜 based on location, zucchini, chinese squash, and the long pumpkin.
