PETA: Mario is Pro Fur

[Snake Plissken]

I always thought the tanooki suit was made of felt or cotton, like a mascot costume. I also thought Tanookis were mythical creatures with giant hypnotic nutsacks. Huh.

Spoiler: You mean like this?

ok.. peta have officially screwed with something they cant handle.. Nintendo's lawyers are going to rip this in half
and i'm going to watch them cackle all the way to the bank and cheer them on too!

Its covered under Satire/Parody provision of International Copyright law. Nintendo can't do anything.

 

[Clonekiller]

Well, I was surprised that no one asked about Mario's baby seal leather boots before. I totally called it though. I told you guys that it wasn't just Fox News, and I was totally right.

How many PETA members does it take to change a lightbulb?

None, cuz PETA can't change anything! BOOYAH!

 

[Alphakirby]

You know what I noticed about this game thing,it's made by This Is Pop,who made all those wonderful Adult Swim games.
Also,is it wrong to think the image of a flying Mario wearing a bloody cape hood thing made from a Tanooki is fucking hilarious.

 

[esperandote]

The game is actually fun and has good visuals.

 

[Saarai-fan]

Without a doubt, PETA's behavior over this and other things in the past has officially made me consider them lower in importance in the world than a piece of sh*t.

What really gets to me now a days, is why celebrities like Bill Maher, Pamela Anderson, Bob Barker, and so on give PETA so much support and attention. Just seems like the reason they do so is because PETA has been around so long and because of out of all the, fingerquote, "animal rights" organizations, they are the loudest and biggest attention grabbers. However, sometimes the loudest people are actually just the craziest people. I just wish somebody well known in society and in the media would call them out on this.

"Mario first donned the tanooki suit, which is admittedly quite grim when you think about it, "
How so?

It's granted by a magical leaf, I'd say that means Mario must be in the good books of nature that they give hum a racoon-dog suit that lets him fly.

 

[SenseOfTumour]

so all Mascots at sports events hollowed out a real, 7ft tall eagle/bunny/bear etc?

I love animals, but PETA make me want to kick puppies down elevator shafts with every utterance they produce.

I don't think I can type any more, just reading another PETA press release is causing the stupid to overwhelm me and forget what these symbols all over my keyboard mean.

 

[Harveypot]

I love PETA but this is just nonsense.

I support animal rights too but PETA are just evil. http://www.petakillsanimals.com/

 

[minimacker]

What? Doesn't he touch a leaf or whatever to transform into a flying squirrel?

PETA must protect those leaves, man!

 

[mxfox408]

Im suprised they havent attacked blizzard for world of warcrafts proffesion, skinning, requires you to kill animals and skin the for materials lol screw PETA's bs claims. Lol they are probly low on funds so they feel they need to sue to collect.

 

[Kuroneko97]

Haven't we just come to expect this from PETA? Mindless accusations that make little to no sense?

Why did my parents send me to the PETA website at 8 just because I'm a vegetarian? Everyone, eat whatever the fuck you want. Not my place to tell you what you can and can't put in your body. When will PETA realize this?

 

[walrusaurus]

brb gonna go play that flash game.

 

[walrusaurus]

HAHAHAHA if you catch him in the flash game it says "fuck you mario that skin belongs to an animal" over a picture of a new re-skinned tanookie fist pumping over marios dead body.

 

[Farseer Lolotea]

I'm becoming more and more convinced that PETA is only in it for attention. Now, I've said this before, but even so: they don't really care about protecting any given species of animal, so much as they care about shaming one in particular.

 

[ThunderCavalier]

... It's a step up from the animal abuse porn site promotion, I guess.

So... PETA is improving?

 

[Andy of Comix Inc]

If PETA is going to act like a 3 year old child i will talk to it like one;

Ok PETA, there is this thing called Fantasy and this thing called reality;

1.Fanatasy; 2.Reality;

Notice the difference? No? Lets try again;

Spoiler

Fantasy;

Reality;

Oh, they understand. They just chose not to. We just have to ignore them, and they'll go away.

Then again I've been saying that about Call of Duty for the past three years. >_>

 

[Lordpils]

And PETA once again completely fails to deliver a proper message and instead makes themselves look like stupid assholes with no sense of humor.

You know in some ways PETA is better than ASPCA. I mean when i hear about PETA i laugh and facepalm and then we all make fun of peta and it's a nice stress reliever. When i hear something from the ASPCA it's usually there donations commercials on TV that make me want to kill myself.
*RANT ALERT*
Seriously i know, i don't have money to give you, now stop showing me sad abused animals with subtitles reading "Why did they beat me?" All it does is make me incredibly depressed and when i'm depressed i get a lot better at tying noose knots.
*END RANT*
Anyway PETA keep up the good work i needed a laugh today.
