    Based on a recent discussion, I think it was decided that Paul Bunyan (and, one would infer, Babe) should be classified as kaiju. It feels a bit racist (or at least specie-ist) to single him out compared to the damage done by all the others.

      I have a bunch of little Arbor Vitae trees which deer do not eat. They do however like to trample the shit out of them. So I imagine likewise, somewhere in a quiet pine forest, there are a bunch of Douglas Firs with all the branches snapped off on one side thanks to the careless meandering of a blue ox the size of a house.

    we would have a reason to build some Jägers because Paul Bunyan would be a fucking Kaiju.

    Why, everybody knows Paul’s the reason North Dakota doesn’t have any trees. He logged 'em all out!
