CashCrazed thought it was funny. But... that's him. He's into that kind of stuff, I guess.
No, I didn't draw that, well, all of it. I essentially took the Green Yoshi result from that Yoshi color test from a while ago, and then I glorified... err.... gorified it. All editing on it was done with MS Paint though.
An explanation of it quoted exactly from TUNMB:
--------------------------------------------------------
"I don't have a problem with Green Yoshi, I have a problem with what it represents.
To me, Green Yoshi represents popularity without being deserving of it. I mean, take SMW. Green Yoshi really can't do anything paticularly well, but he gets ALL the popularity. Red and Yellow Yoshi seem overly neglected in SMW, and they BOTH are better than Green Yoshi. (WHAT? They are. Both have powers.) I personally use Yellow Yoshi in SMW when I play at someone else's house. Most of the time I get:
"Why aren't you using Blue Yoshi? Why not just get a Green one?"
WELL, I'LL TELL YOU WHY. Yellow Yoshi is BETTER than Green Yoshi. He does things Green Yoshi cannot. As for Blue Yoshi, I like to break from conformity. Too many people play as Blue Yoshi. Ooooo, he can fly. I don't need that! That's the cheap way to beat the levels. (In that case, I use the cheap way to beat Tubular then.)
I personally think Red and Yellow Yoshi look cooler, too. Blue seems to blend too much with the white part. That is besides the point.
Now, let's apply this to the real world. Most of the so-called "popular" kids at our school REALLY CAN'T DO ANYTHING WELL! I think that people today seem to stick with kids they know they can outdo, just to look better. Most people veer away from others that do many things well because they would make them LOOK BAD. Most of my friends are actually not horribly good academically, but the difference is that none of them NEED the self-esteem boost being with someone that isn't as good as you gives. They'd prefer the honor of knowing someone notorious for their high standards (Sorry, but that IS what I am known throughout the school for) personally than getting a cheap boost off of an "average" person. I personally tend to judge peole by the way they act in relation to their abilities. The people I hate the most are arrogant despite the fact that they can't do what they are boasting about very well.
My hatred for Green Yoshi is a rebellion against this undeserving popularity. I really don't HATE the character, moreso what I THINK he represents. In a good world, people would be judged by what they can do and how they act, not used as a cheap boost for others.
PS: I apologize if this offended you.

Yes, it is pretty sickening, well to you people anyways. Relatively tame compared to what we watched in Language a while ago...
Ah well, to try to make up for the emotional life-scarring, here's an animated thing (No, it isn't sick AT ALL. It doesn't even have to do with Mario.) I made a while ago. My first ever animated GIF.
http://img.ranchoweb.com/images/krazymonkey5/seizure3.gifOnce again, this one isn't violent at all. Just seizure inducing (Maybe).
PS: Considering how offended the people who actually saw it were, I'd say it was pretty realistic. For MS Paint, anyways.
PPS: Yes, I do call myself a Mario fan. A rather avid one, too. I think I spent about an hour on that picture, so...
Everyone has their own opinions, no matter how WRONG they are.
