Five Shirts and a Stereo

Monday was the 7th anniversary of Animal Crossing: City Folk’s release in America. So I put together a slideshow of my best pictures taken from that 7th year. Check it out if you haven’t seen it yet.

Today, Alli told me the key to a well-designed house is understanding a theme and displaying it well. Apparently “five colorful shirts and a stereo” is an acceptable house theme.

Alli: The trick is understanding a theme and displaying it well, graagh.Outside of Nook ‘n’ Go, Mott was questioning the logic of putting large windows on convenience stores. He didn’t like the idea of people watching him as he picked out energy niblets.

Mott: Imagine someone gawking at your face while you read protein-shake labels or pick out energy niblets.Over by the river, Bunnie picked out a new nickname for me: Pop star. Ugh.

Bunnie: Pop star! Yeah! That sounds great, and that's what I'm gonna call you from now on!

Electric Spa

Just before midnight, I made it into the Roost to check out the Saturday night music performance. I asked for a random song and K.K. played K.K. Ska for me.

K.K.: All right, get ready to dig the riffs on this ditty: K.K. Ska.Mott was home, so I was able to check out his house now that he’s unpacked. He had a nice spa theme going on…but what’s with the amazing machine up there? One of these things is not like the others. Is he going to be electrocuting people once they get in the tub?

An out-of-place amazing machine in an otherwise spa-themed room.Outside, Twiggy asked me to invite some friends over. Sorry, no can do. She protested, saying that her social networking all depends on me. That statement would have been funnier if she had included her catchphrase, “retweet me.”

Twiggy: My social networking all depends on you!When I ran into Alli, she really wanted the racer 6 shirt in my pockets. She even insulted me, saying I look less handsome when I carry it around!

Alli: Oh, I know! It's that racer 6 shirt you have! Somehow you look less handsome carrying it!She offered me a mosaic wall for it, and I went ahead and made the trade.

Mott Moves In

I found a new house in town, and it belonged to Mott the lion, who just moved in. I love your applesauce, dude!

Mott: SWEEEEEET! Good to meet you. My name's Mott!Meanwhile, Twiggy was upset because she’s not a worldwide pop star.

Twiggy: I just want to live the simple life of a worldwide pop star! How did it come to this stuff, retweet me?Fang told me that dope Aurora (yes, he actually called her a dope) destroyed the flowers in his garden!

Fang: The other day, that dope Aurora completely trashed a bunch of the flowers I've been growing.When I went to talk to Friga, she wanted to distance herself from the flower-killing actions of her fellow penguin. Friga told me how much she cares for flowers and waters them thoroughly.

Friga: SOAK IT ALL!I’m going to assume the arrow on her shirt is pointing towards flowers on the ground (even if there were no flowers in the vicinity).
