I could not for the life of me find a decent rhyme to "Hylian", and someone else already made a meme for "Link in the Sink" so that's what you get =P

♦ Rules ♦
1. Stay Civil
This is a place for friendly discussion, memes, guides, art, gameplay questions, screenshots and the like. Discrimination and harrassment won't be tolerated.
2. Mark Spoilers
It is okay to post about "related games" (such as Age of Calamity and Tears of the Kingdom) but please use the spoiler "censor" and do not put spoilers directly into the title, as the censor doesn't work this way. Posts about other Zelda games might be suited better in general Zelda communities, like the ones listed at the bottom of the sidebar.
3. Offtopic Posts
Anything not related to BotW, like politics, religion, non-Zelda games etc. is better suited elsewhere and will be removed. The same goes for NSFW material.
4. No Advertisements
It is okay to post about merchandise, but links to those "design your own merch" sites will be removed, as those are almost always scams featuring stolen art. Affliate links will be removed as well. This isn't Etsy.
5. Provide Sources
If you're going to post art, comics, guides, screenshots etc. that are not your own OC, please mention the name of the original creator and ideally also a link to their portfolio/website. (Pinterest is almost never the original source)
6. Suggestions are Welcome!
Feedback, requests for improvements and constructive criticism are always appreciated ;)

Maybe a stupid question, but is Link actually an elf? The pointed ears aren't lost on me, but all these years it never actually occurred to me that whayever species he is, it may be elf.
Strictly speaking, Hylians are their own race and just happen to look like what we would consider elves. ;)
The humanoid, pointy-eared people in Hyrule are Sheikah, Gerudo and Hylians. The umbrella term for all people living in Hyrule (including Gorons, Zoras etc.) is actually "Hyruelans" but barely anyone uses that term. It appears in some item descriptions in-game tho. Example:
