The reality of the situation for most short men who complain about women not liking them because of their height.
Short man syndrome is very real unfortunately
*Farquaad
I never connected those dots before 🤣
Yes that is the joke
Yes, that's why I played in with the correction. Jeez, you must be fun at parties.
Says the person with the least original reply in the history of the internet
I wasn't going for originality, I was sarcastically pointing out the fact that you're a spaz.
Cope with your shit jokes and bland personality
This thread is a good example of why aliens will never visit Earth.

I never thought about it like this, but lord farquaad is absolutely an incel.
Lord Farquaad- king of local Nice Guys™ chapter
Should have used all that castle money to just hire whores.
Historically speaking, a very popular royal choice.
Well with the moniker "Butcher of the Congo" I can only assume he was building orphanages, hospitals, animal sanctuaries, and libraries.
Or enriching the world with the knowledge of choice meat cuts, dry cured ham, and chorizo?
Nah, he was from Belgium, not Spain. He was all about that waffles and chocolate life.
I mean, it was also a fascist or an ogre.
A fascist or an ogre you genuinely have a lot in common with
Including that she was an ogre, too. She would have expected Lord Farquaad to kill her once he found out.
The thought plickens!!
The "message" of Shrek is pretty iffy.
- Looks really are important
- Ugly green people should only be with other ugly green people.
- Not all ugly people are bad, but bad people are definitely ugly (short being ugly, of course).
I thought the message was that ogres had layers and parfait was really delicious.
Also, donkeys talk and cats do too but with a Spanish accent
That's how I learned all cats are Spaniards.
Mmm that feels like a pretty big stretch. The whole point is that Fiona loves Shrek for who he is, not what he looks like. She didn't become an "ugly green person", because she was beautiful to Shrek and Shrek was beautiful to her.
Also, even if the idea was short=ugly (which I don't think it was, more just a king with a big ego and small stature), Shrek 2 is completely centered around Shrek feeling insecure next to what turns out to be a conventionally attractive bad guy.
Not all ugly people are bad, but bad people are definitely ugly (short being ugly, of course).
Well there’s only one bad person in Shrek 1, so that’s not really a good sample. If we move to the sequels there’s Charming who’s good looking but also an ass.
Yes but have you seen ogre dong?
Yes yes we’ve all seen “the gif”
Shrek may have the personality of an ogre, but it seemed much preferable over that of Farquad's!
If you make fun of someone's physical trait that they have no control over, are you being a good person?
Not at that particular moment at least. I don't think that rises to the level of you are a bad person as a whole.
How bad do you have to be to be considered an all around bad person? How should we weight different kinds of bad (stealing candy from a kid, vs graffiti on an ol granny's shirt)? Is there an objective measure of badness and how to sum it?
Sure here is my 900 page dissertation on it.
No I don't think one shitty remark one time means you are irredeemably a bad person. Just because I can't tell you where the line is doesn't mean that there is no line.
Pretty telling that they think that that's the only downside of the literal cartoon villain
It's a joke, not a character analysis.
No joke is in a vacuum
What about the one with the spherical chickens
Yeah, and so was Fiona
Neither you chose to be, so who cares ?
True. I chose to be a huge, handsome guy so I chose neither and don't care about these losers
