Giraffes
« on: March 24, 2011, 10:39:46 pm »

I recently listened to the DF podcast, and then I stumbled across this:

http://www.petitelapgiraffe.com/

Baby giraffes... are freaking adorable.

No! No! I will not massacre my children. Instead, I'll make them corpulent on crappy mass-produced quarry bush biscuits and questionably grown mushroom alcohol, and then send them into the military when they turn 12...

They're definitely adorable, but I can't help but wonder why this website exists. Is it some kind of tie-in to those commercials they linked?

Also, I wonder how many different clips they have for the giraffe-cam.

No using. That's not what freedom is for.

I'm trying to figure out if the english on the site is broken on purpose or not.

I get a blast from asking kids what a giraffe sounds like at work, especially if they're annoying their parents.  I haven't yet had a kid that kept on being a nuisance after being thoroughly baffled.

They sure are cute, though.  The giraffes, I mean.


And...  huh?  Mountains?

This isn't even really a live feed. It just plays a clip of him looking around whenever the page is loaded up, then stays static.

A few minutes ago, it was morning on there and the giraffe wasn't there. Now, it's night time and the giraffe is asleep. They're obviously operating this cam on a different plane of existence.

Night time is kinda creepy. Every time I go on there, the giraffe looks off in a direction, then goes back to sleep. Every. Time.

There couldn't possibly be a live feed, since the giraffe is CG.

If you watch the nighttime one, his side facing the camera glitches just after he lays his head down.

Yeah. Mini giraffes are a dumb idea. Do they ship babies and then... What? Soon you got a freak with a  twenty foot long neck.

No way that would be legal.

Even though it plays the same clips every time, that thing is friggin' adorable. I had a big old :D plastered on my face the whole time.

Biggest d'awww ever, I kid you not.

Petite Lap Giraffes are very funny animal that require special care. They need lots of love. Hugs and kisses every day. Otherwise they make tears.

...

Living conditions: PLG’s love being indoors in filtered air conditioning. If they can listen to music of Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov it is dream.

Don't let them make tears! Play Scheherazad, for the good of the People's Giraffes. It will be dream!
