Are you suffering from Animal Crossing addiction now, Shamus?

You know that you are vulnerable to this kind of thing! Remember Chime and Minecraft as recent examples?

I take it Shamus has given up on New Vegas then? Surely there's plenty more to poke fun at in the Mojave, apart from the obvious technical issues.

I really should get around to playing Animal Crossing one day. Unfortunately, I'd need to get a wii first...

Tom Nook doesn't just break your spirit. He picks up the pieces and uses them as seasoning as he devours your soul. Afterwards, he has your hopes and dreams for dessert with a nice Chianti wine.

There are a couple things about Animal Crossing I always found strange...

If there are other "people" that are supposed to be working for Tom, where are they? Who moves to a new place with no stuff and no money? How do the guards know your name, and why won't they let you leave?

Obviously, Tom Nook is far more sinister than he lets on. THE PEOPLE MUST KNOW!

Aw damnnit, you ninja'd me. The truth behind Animal Crossing is high octance nightmare fuel, truly not a children's game.

HA! Jokes on him. I haven't been back in years, YEARS! Can you imagine how much of a hellhole wasteland that town is now? And he can never leave. Suck on my apathetic revenge, Nook!

Some times I just giggle at the ways Shamus puts these things.

"Oh he's so crazy, it can't all be like that."

Then I read up on the story.

Holy Shit...and they say Amnesia is bad?

Why not just rename your character Number 6 and be done with it?

But... But... Gold statue of yourself! And you have a mansion!

Seriously, if you pay off all your debt, you get a solid gold statue of yourself in town because you're JUST THAT GREAT. It pays off in the end, I promise! He's not sinister, he just needs your money to get you the best present you've ever had!

Holy crap! I've never played Animal Crossing, but if what you say is true, that Tom Nook is evil. Never mind all those lesser villains, none can compare to the evil of Tom Nook.

I actually re-bought wild world recently, and was reminded of nooks endless greed. He is one shady racoon, no doubt.

I talked to one of the characters recently, who randomly mentioned "being too adult for such things" and when I answered "what things" he said "Oh no...when tom nook got involved in those things, the whole town suffered!"

Needless to say, I was creeped out.

EDIT: That damn LP was even creepier...

Dammit, Shamus. That's almost enough for me to dust off my copy of Animal Crossing, load it into my Wii, the spend the next 8 hours pulling weeds and killing roaches.

Almost.

Dammit, Shamus, that's almost enough to make me want to dust off my copy of Animal Crossing, load it into the Wii, and spend the next 8 hours pulling weeds and killing roaches.

Almost.
