When You See It... (Donald Duck Edition)
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

When You See It... (Donald Duck Edition)
Notice anything out of the ordinary? Now look at this (real) duck:
I can't believe it took me this long to notice, but Donald doesn't have wings!!!

His arms replace his wings. I thought that was standard for this sort of thing.KieranDotW wrote:Donald doesn't have wings!!!

Actually, his "arms" are his wings. They merely have have an "arm/hand"-like shape to them. :cat1:shilohmm wrote:His arms replace his wings. I thought that was standard for this sort of thing.

I understand his lack of wings, for the reasons above. But what's with his lack of pants?!?

Apparently Donald does though... but only when he's not wearing a shirt.PatchOBlack wrote:Well, Daisy hasn't complained about it...
He also wraps a towel around his lower half when he steps out of the shower.
