Boss fights have long been one of the main features of video games from a multitude of genres. Some series, like Dark Souls or Monster Hunter, are known for their focus on making them particularly challenging and rewarding. But you don't need a computer to get into epic encounters.

There's a subreddit where users share images of things and beings they run into that, when taken out of context, look as menacing as a villain of a triple-A first-person shooter or RPG. Fittingly titled 'Boss Fight,' it also invites members to add creative and humorous titles to their posts.

So, we decided to collect the most popular ones and remind you that real life can be as exciting as a carefully crafted virtual world.

    Well, that isn't really useless, because this was probably found out by someone investigating the code to find out why their stuff was crashing and told other people why they were having problems. How about: The Koopa Kids in Super Mario didn't originally have names when introduced in SM3 in Japan, but before release in America they were given names by Dayvv Brooks of Nintendo of America. They were mostly named after musicians, except for Larry, who was named that because he apparently "just looked like a Larry".
