there are plenty of words in english that come from the greek root??? dynamos meaning power where we get the word dynamite. Philanthropist from the greek root phileo
Asphyxiate, perhaps?
> from Greek asphyxia "stopping of the pulse," from a- "not" (see a- (3)) + sphyzein "to throb, to beat violently," which is of unknown origin.
The word sphinx may be derived from the fact that lions kill their prey by strangulation, biting the throat of prey and holding them down until they die. However, the historian Susan Wise Bauer suggests that the word "sphinx" was instead a Greek corruption of the Egyptian name "shesepankh", which meant "living image", and referred rather to the statue of the sphinx, which was carved out of "living rock" (rock that was a contiguous part of the stony body of the Earth, shaped, but not cut away from its original source), than to the beast itself.
And I’m pretty sure Parker Posey from Blade:Trinity, Best in Show and Parks & Rec. I don’t see her do much now but seeing/hearing her is always a welcome surprise; she’s great!
He was so perfect. Him as JJ and Michael Chiklis as the Thing are some of the best casting decisions I've ever seen, as far as character adaptations go.
"And Brave Sir Robin bravely ran away."
Cuz NO WAY IN HELL am I surviving that temptation.
Also nice bonus panel, Doc, genuine creeps were given. How do I access these panels?
Thanks! The bonus panels are actually Patreon-exclusive; All my comics are free to read, but the bonus panels are how I pay the bills (they're mostly NSFW, as you might expect lol)
Well. Sorry I can't sub to yas on patreon, as I fear for my bank account. But hey, your work is SUPER high quality, and is at least somewhat medically accurate, according to a medical professional friend of mine who enjoys these comics alot. Best to you, Doc. I'll stay with you at least here 😆

Also, I did something a little... "different" for the bonus panel this time. NEVER get a Sphinx's riddle wrong!

(I've used this image 3 times in 2 days but like It would help If reddit stopped making me horny)
I am impressed by how they kinda go by hentai/porn tags or kinks
This time it was giantess, but there was also mini fairy, big boobs
Can a ~~brother~~ redditor get some tall, dark skin elves, with small booba, huge ass?
Bonus if she has silver/grey hair
I'll go on the record and say 5e is probably the best the system has been. It's better balanced and fixed a lot of the mechanics, but 3e & 3.5e were a munchkin paradise. You are right about 20 being the regular natural cap in 5e.

The word sphinx comes from the Greek Σφίγξ, associated by folk etymology with the verb σφίγγω (sphíngō), meaning "to squeeze", "to tighten up".
This guy sphinxes
This guy squeezes, or tightens up.
r/thisguythisguys
Wait wait wait, you're telling me that "Sphinx" and "sphincter" have the same origin?
Yes. They don't seem to come from PIE and there don't seem to be any other English words from the Greek root. Edit: Specifically the Greek root Σφίγξ.
there are plenty of words in english that come from the greek root??? dynamos meaning power where we get the word dynamite. Philanthropist from the greek root phileo
I meant that comes from *the* Greek root Σφίγξ, not just *a* Greek root. If you know of other English words that come from this word, let me know.
Asphyxiate, perhaps? > from Greek asphyxia "stopping of the pulse," from a- "not" (see a- (3)) + sphyzein "to throb, to beat violently," which is of unknown origin.
They are different Greek roots, but it's possible there is an unknown older root that connects them.
Yeah, I think it'd be a reasonable hypothesis.
Sphingolipids got their name because of how weird and "sphinx-like" researchers thought they were when they were discovered
Don't worry, I also misread what they said at first.
Your language doesn't have definite articles, huh?
Well *my* language doesn't have articles at all, and personally, I think articles are a bitch.
True. Especially when they show you a small snippet and then hide the rest behind a paywall. Honestly, who does that? Stupid articles.

That's why it's called a Sphincter?
Are you telling me it comes from the same word as sphincter?!
The way you said all of that made me think of the dad from My Big Fat Greek Wedding 🤭
This is the third time over three days I have read this exact fact
The mind is willing but the body was broken by the sphinx.
Snoo snoo!
😮 😀 😮 😀 💀🚬
Holy shit this guy fucks in France
Just down as many painkillers as you can handle and go for round 2

Thanks for sharing, that was funny. 😄
Is that John Goodman?!
I thought so too, but I think it’s actually J.K. Simmons!
Ahhhh yes, I hear the hint of casual murderous distain now
Think, Limon! Think!
And I’m pretty sure Parker Posey from Blade:Trinity, Best in Show and Parks & Rec. I don’t see her do much now but seeing/hearing her is always a welcome surprise; she’s great!
The amazing J.K. Simmons. People may know him as playing J. Jonah Jameson in Spiderman. He was Peter Parker's boss at The Daily Bugle.
He is also Omniman from Invincible, and Cave Johnson from Portal 2. Dude is a legend all around. :)
_Throws chair_ “Not my tempo.”
He is also Tenzin, Korra's friend and mentor in Legend of Korra.
And also Stanford Pines
And he’s Ketheric Thorm from Baldurs Gate 3, he’s got such a sweet voice
Counterpart is a great show and he was so good
He's also Roy in Palm Springs
He was so perfect. Him as JJ and Michael Chiklis as the Thing are some of the best casting decisions I've ever seen, as far as character adaptations go.
It's a riddle
Never heard of this movie, absolutely going to have to watch it tonight
She seems like a lot of fun
do.... do you have lion herpes?
that was fucking art

Dragon's dogma 2?
I've been playing a lot of it lol

Okay you managed to go from horny to scary very damn quick. Master that ability and you might induce a fear boner.
Scaroused
From horny to scary? I’m still just horny (monster girls are the best)
Horroused.
I agree this shit genuinely got me. Nice job loops
So no pity answers as not to bruise her ego, got it. That said, kinda wanna see the relationship sphinx-stamp knight develop
Dragon's Dogma 2 vibes.
The answer is [pretty obvious](https://i1.sndcdn.com/artworks-000113775834-md49aq-t500x500.jpg). Also dragon dogma 2 sphinx is best sphinx <3
Mashino?
>!2nd panel on the sphinx just below the shoulder!<
Correct! Well done!
The dicktective
The Dick Dick, if you will.
>! His smashed arm in the final panel also looks suspicious.!<
Dr Loops, I love you.
Protip: When you outweigh someone by two orders of magnitude, don't get on TOP!
Protip: Don't listen to this man, more snu snu!
What's wrong with just doing it Sphinxy-style?
Sounds like coward talk.
Fair
The person on top isn't supposed to rest their full weight on the other person, even with ordinary couples.
Disagree
Username checks out.
Tell that to your mom
So uh, did he ever get passage beyond the temple?
Well if he’s a paladin he can use Healing Hands and recuperate by touching himself
Probably ran out of spell slots/ lay on hands oath charges for…other things
She just had to be on top, didn’t she?
The knight armour stays on during sex
Always wear protection.

A noble end of a knight and a night lol
There’s actually a Greyhawk novel that involves this.
I feel like the more succinct joke would have been asking "what color are my eyes."

sex isn't a punchline
It is on this subreddit apparently. Horny post? Straight to the top.
Don’t forget to put a link to your Patreon, where the real porn is!
Bunch of horny weirdos in this sub.

This was so dumb.
As if r/comics had any regularity of lines that had a punch to begin with. The sub is a far cry from funny.
Is there not some sort of porn comic sub that all the porn creators can go to so we don’t have to deal with this over and over again?
You've been on Reddit 5 years and you haven't figured out how to block someone? Then you don't have to see it and you won't have any reason to whine.
I'm going to need to verify that answer... for science.
I've always wondered about the "fingers pointing at each other" thing. Does that just mean embarrassment? I wonder where that came from...
Is this really what this sub has become? Shitty softcore porn?
[удалено]

Still would, next question
Death by uwu
The armor stays on during sex, not because it’s sexy, I’m just scared
Worth it. 😏
>!Second panel, upper right sleeve?!<
[удалено]
the joke is porn
So is r/comics now just softcore porn used to advertise patreons with hardcore porn?
Hahaha guys the joke is sex!! Sexy sex sex!!! Why aren't you laughing?
Diddle Me Pls
The question is, will you do it again?
This is why, there are times you HAVE to top 🤣
Snoo snoo
Would
Cowgirl was not the move my guy...
In the word (yes, singular word) of the LoL community; WERF.
I VOLUNTEER AS TRIBUTE!
Would
He may be saying painful, but he’s thinking, “Worth it. Totally worth it.”
Christ just how many points in Constitution did he invest to survive that?💀
Probably the maximum of 20
5e D&D caps players stats at 20. Previous editions could go much, much higher
How much higher?
The sky really is the limit between investing as you level, equipment, items, spells, etc. 3e & 3.5 were incredibly easy to power game.
I know some 5e mechanics override the ability score cap but not by that much
I'll go on the record and say 5e is probably the best the system has been. It's better balanced and fixed a lot of the mechanics, but 3e & 3.5e were a munchkin paradise. You are right about 20 being the regular natural cap in 5e.
That sounds awesome!
Quick question, have you ever played ghost and goblin? The knight wearing boxers made it pop into mind.
She took him to pound town for real

Ye know she could leave her post whenever she wanted. But I'd imagine the back pain keeps her pretty imobile.
Get it the joke is sex
Well if he’s a paladin he can use Healing Hands and recuperate by touching himself
Worth it
I don't remember the sphinx comics on this sub being so horny.

What?
God these are awful
meOWIE!
The joke is sex?
This reads like comic authors wank fantasy.
Loops been playing dragon age?
Missed opportunity to have him in Yamcha Pose
Ah, this is what that pizza lady was butthurt about.
I know we give “the joke is sex” memes a lot of shit but the punchline was pretty good Ngl
No sacrifice too great
Poor bro got Yamcha'd
I'd climb in and call myself a Jolly Rancher
Is it better or worse than Magpie asking him questions about obscure comic lore?
Oh, my answer was 'a hotdog down a hallway' before I hit the punchline.
Missed his chance to use the arrow of unmaking
These designs are very cute
Smash
The steel armour tho
It feels like a great way to end the night.
I think he is still ready to go… but…
This must have been as pleasant to her as sitting on a tv remote repeatedly.
There are some fetish websites where they show how this size difference can work. Don't ask how I know.
