Bandersnatch?

What the heck is a bandersnatch?

edit by Vael: Yay editing works.

Good question. All I understand is that it was a giant dog-like monster in FFIX. ._.

Do you know of the nonsense verse Jabberwocky by Lewis Carol? I love it, it is fantastic. I am almost certain that was where the Bandersnatch was invented. You are not given a physical description of the Bandersnatch. All you know that he is frumious! If you read some of his other works you also know that the Bandersnatch is swift moving. Again, there is no physical description. I don't think there meant to be

[EDIT] Then I used Wiki, and apparently Anna. M. Richards stole the Bandersnatch and used it in her book and gave it a description. "According to the hero, the Bandersnatch is a queer thing that whizzles overhead causing him to believe it is up a tree, only to his surprise its legs are awfully high. It pleads the hero not to shoot only to fool him and fly away. The hero grabs its tail and cuts it off as his trophy.

The hero describes the creature as being extremely long legged with a long tail as well and the ability to fly extremely fast. It could be understood that the Bandersnatch perhaps camouflages itself as a tree, given the explanation understood by the hero's description."

Still, I am not happy with that description, I would rather think that a Bandersnatch is indescribable! hehe ^.^ Okies.. I think I have gone into this a bit too much *runs away*

Okay... Bandersnatch is queer... Right..
Sounds more like a word somebody with a bad case of tourrettes would say...

You didn't read my post at all did you Cj? It was originally a part of a nonsense verse. Also, I think you're looking at queer as meaning homosexual. You have an unhealthy obsession with seeing the "gay" in everything. Is there something you would like to share? *hands Cj a closet to jump out of*

No, Queer means weird You saw the "gay"
I can't stand gays, that's my problem with them if you want to know... I don't have an unhealthy obsession, people at my age usually really hate or "accept" gays (The very unpopular/weird kids, i'm not saying that unpopular kids have problems or are bad but that's usually the case..) I read your long (boring) post anyway *Burns Closet

In MonBre, a bandersnatch is a stone wolf. That's how I imagined it. A stone wolf that MAGIKAL so it's swift. I believe it also said it had a mouth once?

lol and that's the only opinion I was really looking for, but thanks to all for the comments

Where's my shotgun? Imah chargin my lasers (instead) to get Wosheh!

Hey! I know what a Bandersnatch looks like now Pretty mean looking. And it can fly! neat

Imah going to kill it...

Well it's more of a "hover" than a "fly".

Edit: Hey, at least people can tell it is indeed a cloud.
