I have been playing Furry Paws, because I literally used to do Punnett squares for fun, and I’ve never seen another petsite with this much genetic experimentation power. And the art is cute.
Just now I sorted some dogs by level, because I wanted to see who was getting high enough level for me to breed. These are my highest-level Chihuahuas right now.
(side note: The three-letter code at the start of each name represents the dog’s current sports title. Then for the actual name, I generally either use one that amuses me, or just go with the in-game randomizer. There is one amusement name here and the rest are random.)
“Oh, but I’ve already bred Cody and Sophie,” I thought to myself. “I’ll take a look at the others, see if it looks like their genetics line up nicely.
“Ha! There’s a Buddy and a Holly. Oh, and they actually would go pretty well together. That would mean that, out of my basically-randomly-named Chihuahuas, the last potential breeding pair would be...
“.....,,.,.,,...,”
OH COME ON. I can’t put those two together, everyone will assume the names were on purpose!!
#ineffablefool original post#ineffablefool mentions furry paws#not good omens#why is this so funny to me#FOR PEOPLE WHO PLAY FURRY PAWS: yes i know you should breed at day 98 and day 110#but consider: these are game-generated dogs#i am not including any dogs that are not game-generated dogs#and if i have to wait for 1.000X leveling for three months before i can even start seeing generation 2 then i will turn to dust#and i am guessing my dust will probably not want to bother keeping up these breeding projects.#FOR PEOPLE WHO DON'T SEE WHY THE NAMES AMUSE ME: 'Buddy' and 'Holly' together make the name of a mid-last-century musician#remember that song Neil Gaiman said they were originally gonna use for the Good Omens opening credits? 'Everyday' by Buddy Holly#and then in the musical Sweeney Todd#a character who calls himself Benjamin Barker is very dramatically fixated on his lost wife Lucy#AND NOW YOU KNOW#all caps makes me cooler#so do extra tags#hey if any of my old repeat/possessed-of-nickname anons are still out there then random fact: i hope you have a very good next 24 hours <3
