@@KatieWillems Oh god... I hate that my brain is like "Hand is arm" but "feet is not legs". My brain cannot be trusted. ... but butt is butt and not legs.
Butt is 100% legs, and hand and feet are 100% not arm or legs. By definition, the arm is the part that starts with the shoulder and extends down connecting to the hands. If hand was arm, hand would be included in the definition. Butt is legs. Hand is not arm. Foot is not leg. Neck is not head.
@@PinataOblongata They can differentiate hands from the rest of your arms, just like in English you can differentiate your knee from the rest of your leg but its still part of your leg.
Yeah, I was thinking Butts aren't Legs, but neither are they part of the torso, exactly. They are a transitional part of the anatomy, connecting separate sections into the whole.
‘Butt is legs’ is a phrase that has such inherent Griffin McElroy energy and I need to hear him say it at least once in order to have a fulfilling life
@@duke-of-fire You're absolutely right. I love the Amnesty theme, and love those little lines he throws in at the end. It's good that I usually listen to TAZ when I'm at home and not driving.
See, if you'd said "do centaurs wear pants?", I'd have been like, "Hm, no, probably not, moving on." But you said "where" and now my brain is melting, send help...
Every limb is a leg unless it is attached to a hand or is used exclusively for swimming (aquatic mammals). Dogs have four legs and spiders have eight legs. Monkeys have two legs and two arms. Centaurs and horses have four legs. Minotaurs have two legs and two arms.
Pants always go below the rib cage. Centaurs have two rib cages. One in the human torso, and one horizonal horse one. So centaurs would wear pants on the back legs with the waistband below the second rib cage
I'll be honest, I'm SO GLAD I caught some of the Twitter nonsense while it was happening, so I have at least SOME context for this xD I've no idea what people who weren't on Twitter must think of it!
But it is gramatically correct to say "I have a butt" just like saying "I have buttocks". I think it is safe to say that the definition of "butt" has fnally diverged from "buttocks"

I think it depends on the person. For some, the butt is definitely part of the legs, but others have very distinct butts, which seem like a separate body part. 🤷♀️
I like how ever since Hank has gone down the whole of researching "CONTENT" on the internet, he's developed this new WheezyWaiter style double who only comes in to talk about internet-related things.
I think my ability to draw people really improved when I realized that butt is legs. The torso can be split into three parts, with divisions around the bottom of the pectorals and the waist. The bottom part of the torso intersects with the legs.This is why if you're wearing a tie, the tie will appear longer on you when you sit down, because the legs don't just attach to the torso, they exist simultaneously from the belt to the nether regions. This also seems to correlate with the fact that doing a split can tear your pants, the pants above the pant legs are built for torso but if you do leggy things then the torso part turns into legs, hence the tearing.
