The Bouba/Kiki effect ... is the tendency for people [across most languages and cultures], when presented with the nonsense words bouba and kiki, to associate bouba with a rounded shape and kiki with a spiky shape.

Would have been better if they left the names off.

I don't know where you find these, but this again proves that there truly are "no exceptions".

"There's a Furry/Anthro version. No exceptions."

Celebrating the wackiest, coolest, and most fascinating Furry/Anthro versions of... almost anything, really.

The neater and more unusual the Anthro reimagining, the better! Don't over-post more "common" Anthro-fied species, but they're not strictly banned.
