So Apparently PETA has been hitting the shrooms again because I was Browsing IGN and Found This:

Really, I can't add anything more to make it even funnier due to how stupid this really is:rolleyes:

    PETA have a good goal (saving animals, etc)...but they are complete idiots in carrying it out and overzealous in all the wrong areas.

    And I'll never support their stand on animal testing or their methods of carrying it out. I know that if I was months away from completing my PhD and then some idiot let all of the animals loose, I'd want to go shoot somebody. I probably wouldn't actually, but the sentiment would be there.

    I am rather pleased that they decided to go after Mario, because now the rest of the world can see how ridiculous they are being, too!

    I only have two things to say about this.

    1.) The jumping mechanics are totally screwed on that game.

    2.) "Fuck You Mario!" is the best ending to a game I've seen in a while.

    I know at least two games that involves shoving a rabbit into a fuse box. Of course, in both cases it was done by another animal.

    PETA is a known troll, they like the attention. Like a kid with ADD.

    Strong Bad singing "People with way too much time on their hands" comes to my mind almost immediately.

    They should protest Strong Bad. By kicking The Cheat, Strong Bad is sending a message that it's OK to kick The Cheat.

    Why don't they go after the Toy Mafia instead? They're the ones who go around in animal costumes!

    Yeah, they're the Westboro Baptist Church of animal rights.

    I think they would actually like Sam and Max, it gives guns to the animals so they can shoot us nasty human beings.

    Does anyone honestly take Peta seriously?

    They're just a bunch of pushy fuckheads as far as I can see.

    You have to take them seriously when you're doing animal research. Those idiots could ruin years of research overnight by letting loose all the lab animals.

    And then burning the place down. PETA has been paying arsonists that teach others how to make bombs.

    Whenever I think of PETA I wish that a vegetable rights activist group will be formed someday so that they realize how silly this whole thing is. Won't happen though. If they're willing to go after Mario, they'll never realize how silly they are.

    My wife says that her dad used to be against the hunting of deer, until he realized that deer in America don't have enough natural predators, so without hunting the deer population would be crazygonuts.

    I don't think they've ever actually played a Mario game. Nowhere in that article does it say anything about abuse to turtles, and turtles have been in Mario games since the very beginning.

    It's as if someone just watch a trailer or looked at box art for Super Mario 3D and that's it.

    First of all, who cares about PETA? Second, who gives a crap about PETA?

    I'm really, and with that I mean REALLY surprised that by now they still haven't attacked the cat-as-silencer. Or rather, cat-ass-silencer. But I guess that besides lame-asses they're also pussies.

    Why is it that Peta go for the tanooki suit, a device that grants mario flight/better jumping, which is created from a natural growing leaf and NOT an animal, and attack that, but completly ignore the fact that mario jumps on an "innocent" turtle and kicks its shell around on a regular basis.

    I did have that in mind. And then when it is immoral to eat anything at all, they'll be forced to turn to the only food source left...animal/vegetable rights activists.

    What about the fact you can outright murder a dog with the ability to think and understand that we have in Skyrim, with an axe, and let him bleed to death from his wounds.

    Good point, Fawful. You should go send that in to them. I'd love to see them try to make a flash Elder Scrolls game where you try to make friends with the dragons instead of killing them.

    Even speaking as a pescetarian and big animal rights activist, this is pretty hilarious. I just see PETA as a huge troll and their stuff a parody, like that Land Over Baptist site. This wasn't their best game compared to the others on their site but it was still pretty funny.

    Considering the dragons can speak, write, and play what essentialy amounts to an extremely complex version of chess, this is hardly unsupported. On the other hand, the dragons in this game
    are zombies
    , so they really shouldn't be alive in the first place anyway. Then again, I guess that's one way to bring back an extinct species.

    I doubt it, Sam & Max sends the message that it's okay to give a dog chocolate ice cream bars. Or that it's okay to feed corn dogs to rabbits.

    And then there's that part in Season 2 where
    Sam and Max get crushed to death by spikes, sending the message that it's okay to crush animals to death with spikes.
