Here, here's a picture from the textbook, but this is what all the animations looked like. Now that you're seen how they look, imagine how they were animated. Yikes.
Here's a fun graph for you: number of christmas albums released per year since 1940. Starts off fairly low, then, starting in the early nineties, the numbers begin to skyrocket, peaking at 70(!!) in 2008, with the numbers declining heavily since then. I wonder what's up with that? I mean, Mariah Carey didn't help, but she alone can't be responsible for that peak a decade and a half later, can she? The world may never know...
I saw talk the other day about how useless Google is getting, but I don't think it's just Google. I think search engines in general are getting worse. I wanted info on the stalk market in the original Animal Crossing. DuckDuckGo gives me New Horizons info. I try excluding "New Horizons" and yeah. No matter how I try to tweak it, it continues to give me ACNH info, literally in the top few results.
Is this not how you exclude results anymore or have these things really gotten this bad?
Okay, well, it turns out, the code was actually pretty trivial. So, here you go, a list of alternatives to the fire/grass/water starter trio!
