The reason how Parsely gets you Selipa is like how Xyex said: Par-Sely = Sely-Pa(r). It's using the same pun method as for how Saiyans are a pun on vegetables: Ya-sai = Sai-ya, where yasai means "vegetable" in japanese. Now add a -jin to the Saiya and you get yourself a bunch of stupid fighters that turn into monkeys! W00T~~! ...Though I don't get how Oozaru is a vegetable pun. ( :lol: )

Exactly my point. Which vegetable is "big monkey" a pun of? A tree from the amazon? Those are pretty big and have monkeys swinging in 'em.

It's a big biggie! It messes up the pun! It's like indicating that if you water your plants enough and if they get plenty of moonlight, they'll grow into nice, healthy, giant monkeys.

That's it! I'm going to get my revenge on Toriyama! **Uses his magic human powers to turn into a giant iceberg** Shape of! A rock! Now somebody push into the pacific so I can float over his ass!

Dayspring, you just said "shape of a rock". That means if I push you into the water, you'll sink. :D

Name puns are silly, like you guys. :P VegEX need name puns, I must learn more about Dragonball!

Who does that "form of" crap? It's that the Wonder-whatevers from the Super Friends? Those two were so lame.

"Form of puddle!" "Form of mouse!"
