One got eaten by a hippo, it was in the news.

Interns don't sing well I guess. The dwarfs could charm gremlins.

man thats really harsh, calling him an it, shame on you :p

They couldn't even sing about kissing a girl.. They've got no mouth.
How do you suppose they ingest food? through the back end? 0_0


Intern singing I kissed a girl: Hm hm, a, hm.. hm hm hm!
(Translation, I kissed a slig and I liked it! the taste of his
lungbuster's cig's!)

MarsMudoken 12-10-2009 07:24 PM

...and then the fuzzle strikes.

~Oprilthevykker~ 12-10-2009 08:24 PM

So true Mars..interns just-a wanna have fun.. and the one from Munch's oddysee died while listening to a great song about a bicurious girl.. could his life have possibly ended in a more horrible, and depressing way?

O.o ...okay, thanks for putting even more disgusting images in my head. Anyway, I always thought they drank stuff through a straw thin enough to fit through the stitches.

MA, that's different, you should know she was doing them all.

I suspect Interns are kept alive by a cocktail of experimental drugs. It would account for how unhealthy they look.

MarsMudoken 12-11-2009 11:41 AM

That's just as gross as eating from the back of their heads...

enchilado 12-11-2009 11:55 AM

I don't think he meant the back of their heads, Mars dear...

MarsMudoken 12-11-2009 12:02 PM

...creepy...

~Oprilthevykker~ 12-11-2009 03:33 PM

I just assumed if they had no mouth, it had to go into some sort of hole.
Not to offend anyone. But yeah, maybe they absorb the liquids through
the pore's in their skin. By the way, are the intern's a closely related species
of a vykker? Or what species of Odd do they come from?
The legs on an intern looks much like a vykker's.

Dryadri 12-11-2009 03:50 PM

Again with the images in my head, an intern sponge soaking up the air...what if someone farted? Would they soak that up?

I thought they were related to vykkers somehow, but I don't think it actually says anywhere for definite.

~Oprilthevykker~ 12-11-2009 03:55 PM

LOL.. That must suck, your facial pore's absorbing farts an all..

Dryadri 12-11-2009 03:56 PM

No wonder they're grouchy buggers, they must stink a little, doesn't help that their faces are huge either.

~Oprilthevykker~ 12-11-2009 04:07 PM

Guess they'd make a great air freshener.. Cause if you farted, their face would absorb your farts.. O.o

Dryadri 12-11-2009 04:11 PM

That'd be a good idea actually, spray them with something nice and make them hang around with you for the rest of the day. Instead of pine airfreshner it could be Pinetern!

MarsMudoken 12-11-2009 04:19 PM

Think Abe's Exodus. You could possess your farts and make them move. Interns would be shields, absorbing you farts! Or could you only possess explosive farts? Hey! Absorbing explosive farts! Suicide bomber intern!

enchilado 12-11-2009 04:20 PM

http://www.oddworld.com/firsttenyear...ow_intern.html doesn't say they're related to Vykkers, but it doesn't mean they're not.

MarsMudoken 12-11-2009 04:35 PM

Na...they have 2 legs, not 3. And it doesn't look that similar...the eyes are in complete different spots. Also the most important thing is that the Interns mouth is vertical.

AlexFili 12-12-2009 01:30 AM

With regard to Opril's song quote, there is a line in a Franz Ferdinand song No You Girls which goes like this; "Lick your cigarette, then kiss me". I even made a Slig comic about it. I digress.

Interns are pretty cool really. If you think about it, they're still quite a lot more useful than Sligs in many ways, but of course they can't hear that well (because of the music). I'm guessing the Intern gamespeak was pretty useless (I know its just taunting, but at least you can understand the other species taunts). I haven't played MO in a long while.

STM 12-26-2009 10:53 AM

haha they made a spelling error on the intern bit of the website, see if you can spot it.

I'm guessing that at one point, interns and vykers where of the same species.

Wil 12-26-2009 11:04 AM

In that they both belong to Oddworld's vertebrate clade, yeah.

Phylum 12-27-2009 12:40 AM

They both evolved form Concept Art.

Dryadri 12-27-2009 07:58 AM

They're both pudgy.
