Name: Ka-thunk
Debut: Super Mario 3D World
Wow. Ka-thunk, huh? A square? Everyone get excited, because this post is about a square. Maybe that's what you're thinking. But that would be shallow. A square can be so many things. A square can be a kitchen tile. A square can be a bathroom tile. A square can even be a "sponge'b ob". All three of these, equally cherished things in our culture!
The most interesting thing about Ka-thunks is probably their "leader", King Ka-thunk, who presides over a realm of inanimate squares.I think this is an ethical monarch. He doesn't need any real subjects. He found something that works for him, and he's proud of it, and he's not hurting anyone! Except for the stage and boss battle about him hurting you, but, like, I don't know. Give the guy his space! He's never broken into YOUR house, has he?
Not to talk about the king too much here on his subjects' post, though! He got his own post years ago, as a premiere funniest guy! I mention him for a very specific reason: his fleshiness. I don't know if this is Ka-thunk biology at work, or if he's a fleshy square wearing Ka-thunk inspired armor, but King Ka-thunk has an iconic vulnerable, fleshy back.
So what does this imply for the typical Ka-thunks? Are they indeed non-living metal frames? Or, if you were to pry them open with a screwdriver, would there be flesh within? Soft, boneless meat? Potentially even succulent?
And if so...
Would you eat Ka-thunk meat?
Hell yeah! What do you take me for?
No. I have bad taste.
