How easy that would have been to avoid. Just write “only person,” problem fixed.
I see a duck, and I see a cop.
Neither of those things qualify as human.
That’s really unkind to ducks.
Also unkind to pigs. :(
A duck, a pig, and a human are walking in the desert…
I hate to be the one to tell you this, dude, but you’re a duck.
It’s just his last name! It’s not his identity!
If it walks like a duck, and talks like a duck…
As he speaks English, does Donald talk like a duck though?
Tap for spoiler
Usually ducks don’t speak at all!
Which brings up a point- in the comics, Donald appears to speak without any sort of impediment, and is also quite eloquent. In the cartoons… not so much.
It’s probably to do with it being easier to add in speech than in writing. But I’m sure someone on YouTube can make a 10 hour documentary about the deep lore behind it!
We can thank Carl Barks for the upgrade from the cartoons.
Carl gave Donald about a 30-point IQ boost along with fixing the speech impediment.
For anybody unfamiliar with Barks and his Duck-legacy, look him up on wikipedia, or better yet: Read his classic Uncle Scrooge stories. Best work he has done!
And I don’t know about the recent reboot, but the Ducktales cartoon from the 80s adapted a lot of Barks stories.
It’s a chicken! (Old Cow and Chicken cartoon episode)
Then you should still ask it what it identifies as.
According to that logic, you aren’t a squid either but maybe a duck or… a human??
I am a squid and identify as a squid. Donald obviously is whatever the opposite of a furry is.
A… skinny?
No, wait that’s awful.
In Usagi Yojimbo, do they recognise that they are different species? Cuz they’ll talk about rabbits as though they are animals (as opposed to the anthropomorphic animal characters). Also there’s humans.
Who is going to tell him?
This gives off “Ted Cruz for Human President” vibes.
