So I figured, this is entirely on-topic and disturbing enough to post in this thread:

CHICAGO�lollie: There's one thing though that's got me feelin' sorry for the lil' critters.
The DarkOverord: what?
The DarkOverord: Little kids are gonna get 'em?
CHICAGO�lollie: Nono, their lack of genitalia. :T
The DarkOverord: XD
The DarkOverord: yus
The DarkOverord: I think it's so they can't take over D:
CHICAGO�lollie: Yeah but, I mean, wtf. How are the little guys supposed to have fun if they can't do the jiggy? :T
The DarkOverord: XD
The DarkOverord: aye
CHICAGO�lollie: I DEMAND MORE GENPET JIGGY!

Why does the animal rights activist in me cringe at this?

Really though, if they can make these things, why not sell them like normal pets instead of wrap them in plastic like a CD player?

Actually the point of the art thingy was to show how horrible the mass marketing of living things is.to deter stuff like this fomr happening. It all starts with thoughts like this..

Seriously, what if they could gene-mod a pet so that it made a certain noise 15 minutes before it peed or pooped? That would be great! Or maybe a gene-mod that makes the pet more easily trainable. Just brainstorming here, but I think there's lots of room for improvement. But I think that removing all the hair from your pet and making them all creepy looking is not really a direction that ought to be pursued, genetically speaking.

Besides, if a company di do this you know they'd make it cute and furry, which would scare me more. If you can make a rat glow you can make a cute gen-pet. those things look like every genetic abomination you've seen on sci-fi movies, the ones that say "Kill me" all the time. Supposedly when the display was set up they were rigged to breathe and a few were set up to twitch and claw. sounds horrible. Imagine going by KB toys and seeing one of those poor things clawing at it's case. I'd cry so hard. then laugh becasue it can't do the jiggy.

In all honesty, I really shouldn't have fallen for this. I mean I saw "genepet restraints" as one of the features and gave a big '0.o', then forgot all about it.

Still...ugh.

Godamn, please tell me they are not cyborgs. Please... somebody... I don't want to have to avoid my Christmas tree because of the fear of finding that thing sitting there... staring at me with it's eyes closed.

Well they were made with animatronics and microchips... so... CYBORG HO!

Man I really want to cut one of those things open to see how it works, though that might be considered animal cruelty if I they are indeed alive. Then again I wont really know its animal cruelty until I cut them open will I.....

Blast you genpets. How dare you place me in a catch 22 you freaky alien cyborg things.
