Anchovy’s Gambling Problem

Ozzie the Wizard of Oz koala has already moved out of town. He flew his hot air balloon out of town to the land down under, as he repeated “There’s no place like home.” Okay, maybe it didn’t happen exactly like that. But I got his goodbye letter in the mail today.

To my pal, Jeff, I have a hunger...and while I normally just grab a snack to fill up, this hunger will only be satisfied by exotic foods from far-off lands. So, I'm now a wanderer! -Snackily yours, Ozzie

When I spoke to Puck, he told me he was going to build himself a vacation house! But then he clarified: He just means an igloo.

Puck: Pretty soon, I'm going to build a vacation house. Well, more of a vacation igloo, really, brrrrrrrrr.

Speaking of igloos, I found one near the river. Static was inside, and he wanted me to play a game where I could win or buy a kitchen flooring from him. Since he said he could take up to 3,000 bells from me, I declined the offer to play. So naturally, he called me a chicken.

Static: What, you chicken? You shouldn't lead me on like that. Oh well, maybe next time, huh, in a flash?

I met Ozzie’s replacement, Anchovy the bird. He’s lived in Forest once before, a long time ago (before I started the blog). And I’ve had him in City Folk as well.

Anchovy: Your name's Jeff? Uh, nice to meet you, chuuurp. Even if you don't come bearing snacks.

I decided to take a look at the inside of his house, and I was surprised to see a bunch of slot machines lined up! I think this bird has a gambling problem.

Since I saw two snowballs in the same part of town, I rolled them up into a snowman. I also used my net to give him a pointy hat. But with the horns on my hat showing behind the net, it looked like the snowman was the one wearing a viking hat.

But after that, I murdered him. Just because I could. 😛

I spoke with Tom, and he asked if I’d rather play golf or watch golf. Golf isn’t really my thing, so I just said I’d rather watch. So he basically called me a lazy slug. Rude.

Tom: You? Seriously? You just like sitting on your behind like a lazy slug and watching?

I asked Baabara for a job, and she asked me to catch a fish for her boyfriend. She didn’t specify any certain kind.

"Baby! Get me a fish!" That's what my boyfriend told me this morning. Talk about rude!
Tell him to grab his rod and do it himself.

So I ran to the river and quickly caught a pond smelt. I took it back to Baabara, and she rewarded me with a green lamp.

I also asked Maple for a job, and she asked me to pick up her glasses case from Baabara. So I headed back to Baabara, but she told me she lent the case to Kody. When I asked Kody about it, he said he gave it to Ursala. Is a glasses case really that popular that everybody needs to borrow it? o.O

Kody: But Ursala came by the other day and snaked it. I know I should have kept it. I was out of line. I'm sorry.
It’s okay buddy, don’t be blue. We all know how Ursala is.

Fortunately, Ursala still had the case. She gave it to me, and I returned it to Maple. My reward was 835 bells. I was tired after that wild goose chase, so I went home and wrapped up my game for the day.

That’s all for now, but I’ll have a new Animal Crossing GameCube video coming at some point in this upcoming week. Please check my Youtube channel for it, and subscribe so you don’t miss it. See you next time!

Update: Here is the video! It’s a compilation of villager rudeness. Watch as they call me an idiot, a psycho, an insufferable wimp, the most boring person alive, and much more!

  1. I just came back from a long day. I’ve been ill and stuff. Then I saw this video… it cheered me right up.

    1. I’m glad it cheered you up. And I hope you start feeling better real soon. Just make sure to do a backflip as you take your medicine! 😉
