Even More Advent Calendar Discussion! (List in 1st Post)

I'm still hoping for a paint brush *le sigh*

Except they'd be deflated like crazy.. I doubt worth more than 10k, if even 10k.

Which is a bad thing because...?

Paint brushes are too high priced anyway. Would it really hurt to have some nice colors that aren't so outrageously priced?

Yeah, I'm sure people who currently have one wouldn't be happy, but I am not one of them, so

[Moogum]

Personally I think y'all are getting a bit to over-dramatic. It is, after all, just a bunch of pixels. And as mentioned above, Neopets isn't all fluffy bunnies and rainbows.

I was really amused by it actually. Not that I think harming innocent things is funny, just the fact that it's kind of... so wrong, it's funny. I think they should have had Edna though instead of Hubrid.

No, it was horrible.

Well I like how you state your opinion like it's fact. You (and others) think it's horrible. I (and others) think it's not.

And I'm hoping for a Mystery Island animation too! Good for my gallery!

[rageaholic]

I'd also like to know that if it were an ugly petpet would you all act the same?

I was actually wondering about that myself. I mean mortogs explode all the time and most people seem unaffected even though that's far more graphic than this animation.

or... if it was a whole new colour everyone would benefit and no1 would loose out!! and we'd have a new pet colour :)

That's very true. I was actually very hopeful that we might get a snow paint brush last year because of that same reasoning, too bad we didn't

[krisgp]

a new petpet paint brush would be cool too. or a holiday ish petpetpet, or holidayish furniture/petpet supplies.

I don't think she meant that.

It wasn't boiled to death, it was turned into a lovely cake I think you're all putting your own twisted spins on it. Its very suggestive after all A simple animation can turn into:
"Listen to the feepit's mournful shrieks of pure terror as it is tossed into a pot where you can see its flesh burn and its fur sizzle, releasing the odor of seared flesh and hair into the damp dungeon air! And then as its cries die down with its PAINFUL and HORRIFYING death, the cauldron suddenly transforms into a cake with frosting made from its torture induced pain and the cake made from its innocent blood! Then the three plunge their utensils into what had been the poor feepit, and eat each bite with the relish and delight of true evil"

You just summed up what happened, dear.

O_o Some of you are being a little melo-dramatic. I mean, doesn't TNT have foods your pets can eat that are made of other pets (Meerca Pie, Quiggle Pie)?

I'd also like to know that if it were an ugly petpet would you all act the same?

As for me, I really didn't have any strong feelings for this animation.

Yes, and those also disturb me. But atleast I was spared seeing the process of making it.

I wouldn't be AS upset, but I'd still be disturbed. Atleast the thing would still be alive.

[everconfused]

I'm sitting here and my housemate is sitting reading over my shoulder. Yes, she'll be joining But she's nice, so it'll be ok.

Now the animation I found hilarious in a really sick way. But that's my twisted sense of humor. If it were a real animal, I'd be the first one with the tar and feathers to say the least.

My housemate just logged in awhile ago to feed her pets, etc. and go to advent. No, I didn't tell her ... Yes, she watched it. And she just sat there with her mouth hanging open in horror. Truly ... horror. Said she thought she'd have nightmares about it tonight. We're both adults. Just completely different mindsets. She won't play Feed Florg. Tried it once and couldn't take the idea of feeding the petpets to that thing.

I'm sure the next animation will be more in the spirit of the happy Neo.

[skizzy the wonder lizard]

ha! i wonder how many of the people who were horrified by the animation are vegetarians. just cuz you don't see the pain and suffering doesn't mean you're not contributing to it.


hilariously, i'm a vegetarian and i thought the animation was a hoot.

[Jasujo]

I didn't think the animation was that bad. At first, I was a bit shocked, and I just kind of sat there with my mouth open after I watched it. Then I burst out laughing. Now everytime I watch it, I laugh when they toss the feepit in. It's so horribly funny. lol

My girls didn't see the animation today. I had actually forgotten about it because I was exhausted from not sleeping last night. Santa Claus scared the wits out of me yesterday and let's leave it at that. *shudders* . . . Anyway, I don't think they'd think it was that bad. I mean, they'll be shocked when they see it, but then I think they'll laugh, too. We'll see. If not, then I'll make it better someway. lol

I loved that, CrewWolf! It reminded me of the old Deserted Fairground neopedia article. lol

I'm a vegetarian, so you ain't got nothing against me, dude!

[Sylence]

You find 220 Neopoints!!!
You find a Christmas Shoyru Plushie!!!

You also find a Uni Races Usuki Set!!!

[Jasujo]

That animation is awesome! Yay for the Uni! It's about time. My girls love that Greeting. They used to watch it all the time and crack up. They will be so delighted to see today's animation.

[Cranberry]

I love today's animation -- reminds me of that old greeting card where the uni slams into the tower. The uni had better luck tonight.

[everconfused]

the animation was great! That card was the first thing I thought of. Finally the uni doesn't get whacked Here's the animation url for whoever (I don't remember and didn't read through, sorry - I'm operating on almost no sleep for the past week) for todays:
