On the vast Internet spaces there exist the epic struggle for supremacy of Cute versus Strange diversions. So I ask, to end the battle for evermore, which do you prefer?

Personally, I prefer the strange. Cute is certainly good, but once you have seen a few fluffy kitties, puppies and duckies you have certainly seen them all, ne? Whereas the strange contains infinite variety and gloriousness.

See below, the awesomeness of the Matamata turtle

He sure looks nice, with his cute smile, ne?
But what lies in wait is really a silent killer! The nose is designed by thousands of years of evolution to poke just above the surface of the water while the rest sits like a rock, and sensitive enough to spot the slightest vibration of prey. When noticed, the turtle has only to open his mouth and suck in the unsuspecting victim. (mata mata means "I kill, I kill" in Spanish)

I have to admit, after hearing your explanation of cute and strange, I was more compelled to strange-ness. I like quirky animals! D:<< It's so wonderful what nature can bring to us~

Yeah I agree, the strangeness seems much cooler than the cuteness now. My personal favorite is the flying fish, but the walking catfish are pretty wicked. Go mother nature!!!!

definitely cute, although I'm no animal lover, all animals kind of scare me except for birds. I love birds <3 <3

Id have to say I sort of lean towards the strange side over cuteness.

Awesomeness

It really depends on my mood. Sometimes I just need cute and fluffy and sometimes I just want to laugh at how odd things are. I don't think I could ever decide between the two (at least not a decision that would remain unchanged over the course of a single day)

Strange because it's always different. And cool.

Something like a cute fluffy kitten will make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside and I'll have a strong desire to pick it up and hug it.

A strange animal will make me look on on amazement as I wonder how such things exist.

Which one of the two I prefer? I like both feelings, but hugging a cute little kitten is win. remembers doing that to her cat

You have to be careful though. Some animals can be cute but dangerous XD

I guess strange because strange can be cute. However, to some people cute can strange.

At the end of the day I guess it just the eyes of the beholder.

Which ever makes me laugh.

That would be "strange" in most cases.

Cute.

I don't like really strange things, because it makes me think of coming in contact with them, and they make me question my view that the world is some-what normal. Not to mention, they simply scare me and creepy me out.

Though things like this:

Cute and strange ^^ But I take commonly cute over (cute) strange things, because kittens rule the earth. Then again kittens are very strange.

I prefer cute things.

I do like some strange things (but not too strange), but I love cute things more. 🙂

The uglier the better.
Cute things are cute 'cause we make them cute
by using size 14 IMPACT and writing
with shitty English or by adding something humane to
the being being presented.

Ugly things are ugly no matter what we do.
