    I still maintain this is the most horrifying item on Neopets:

    I can hear them screaming in agony.

    I was playing Scorchy Slots on a daily pursuit for Treasure Map pieces, and suddenly this happened:
    For the first time in my Neopian life, I have struck the Jackpot in Scorchy Slots.

    If the high score table updates tonight for Scorchy Slots, I just might have a bronze trophy for this game by the end of the Neopian day.

    Not at all. We haven't had a creepy antagonist in a while, so it was about time they made a new one  I hope we see him again soon. He has too cool a design to not make a reappearance in the near future.

    Final prizes are here!

    And you can see the Neggnapper creepily lurking behind Kari and co. He apparently has a Neopedia article, but it hasn't been updated yet.

    Maybe that's REALLY why he's trying to take all the Neggs. He's going to try that protein diet 🤣

    The Neggnapper's neopedia article was updated:

    I expected him to be more buff like his brother, so the skinny look took me by surprise. I like it, he's kinda creepy. And his description makes him even more scary:
    Take his time for, what, sneak into my house undetected and kill me in my sleep?
    I wish we could've gotten him as a challenger in the battledome or something, 'cause in the end this reveal didn't actually have an impact on the festival at all.
    Oh well, all in all, it was a decent event. We saw the return of Kari, cool prizes, and new character art, so I'm pleased.

    The final prizes will probably be given out once the event is officially over
    Anyway, apparently the one stealing the neggs was a new character called "the Neggnapper", aka the big brother of the Neggbreaker. Colour me intrigued. Will we get to see this Neggnapper at some point? Will we be able to fight him in the battledome?

    Ooh, interesting! So they are hiring new artists. I actually lost hope a few days ago when I realised that the artwork for the Negg Faerie this year wasn't actually new. It was actually reused, taken from very old concept artwork for Key Quest:
     
    (you can see Kari right there at the bottom)
    I was a little disappointed at first, but hey, I'm totally fine with Jumpstart using previously unreleased artwork.
    Also, It's nice to know the Blumaroo is indeed new! Looks like the artist has been posting a lot of Neopets content on his Instagram, so that's cool.

    The way things are going it seems almost inevitable that there'll be a second wave of infection everywhere, created solely by our own stupidity. 🤦‍♀️
    I can see why this nonsense in the media is happening with the masks, I mean it's all very well for a government to make mask-wearing mandatory, but that doesn't suddenly make masks appear out of thin air, does it. So people having to make their own is the gonna be the only option in some cases. But it's sheer lunacy. It's that weird "it's better than nothing" mentality, isn't it. But it really isn't better than nothing, is it...
    The governments know the hospitals and other frontline workers don't have enough masks, so to turn around and say everyone has to wear them?
    Ok, cool...
    I saw this caption on Instagram yesterday and it really was an excellent analogy for so many foolish peoples' mindsets right now.
    Saying the curve is flattening so we should be be able to go out again now is like saying the parachute's slowed our rate of descent down so we can take it off now.

    Wow lots to reply to today!
    That's good! I'm glad you're at least able to get outside and get some fresh air. I know it's not the same but at least it's something. I just keep thinking that things could be worse and that gives me a glimmer of hope. Personally I'm trying not to stress about things so much, but at times it's hard and it doesn't help that I'm not sleeping that great. Well, more so not sleeping at appropriate hours. My in-laws are itching to see their grandkids and I  had to send my husband out to their place by himself to get them to not come out here. My husband fixed the quad so it was a necessary trip for him. I'm thankful for the time we get to spend together as a family. Plus Kai loves that we're home so he can get all the attention he wants. He's a big attention suck!
    I haven't heard of protests or anything like that here yet and I hope people don't get that stupid. I know times are tough but at least our government is trying to help people by allowing those with income losses to apply for a relief benefit.
    I'm glad they didn't insist on being stubborn. I'm just getting really sick of the 8 pm phone call announcing they're coming out the next day.
    I'm not a cat person. Dogs are more my thing. My 8yo saw your cat gif and wouldn't let me scroll down to keep reading for probably a good 5 minutes lol.
    I think consistency is key these days and your city should have a notice up somewhere online stating that. I'm glad the officer decided to give you a mask instead of fining you. For some things, I think they should issue a "warning" that way repeatedly stupid people who do not care about the rules are the ones being fined instead of people like you who are just trying to get things they need and are unaware of the current rules. Masks here are becoming recommended and I'm like why now. Why weren't they recommended when the virus first landed in Canada? They would have kept asymptomatic people from coughing, sneezing and breathing on people while out in public.
    That is absolutely horrid that they are being forced to do that!
    It's such a complete turn of events, isn't it? To me, it doesn't make any sense, why now instead of when the virus was first encountered in our areas. A friend of mine has made homemade masks and I think she's selling them to people in the area that need them or want them for venturing out. I may end up making some for ourselves, just in case they become mandatory. That way the kids and everyone has one in case we need to go somewhere with the kids. No way am I wearing one in my yard though. Our yard is completely fenced in and surrounded by a hedge so we are isolated. Plus people can go walk on the street like they usually do or go walk on the other side of the street and save Kai from barking at them so much lol.
    That worries me to Hanso. If people think they're safe because of the loosened restrictions we're just going to end up back at square one. Even if restrictions are loosened here I'm not going to immediately rush out and have a party with friends or playdates. Even if they decide to reopen schools this year, my daughter will not be going back. I don't care if all her friends are. I won't allow her to go back to school until I think it's safe for her to do so. Her teacher knows I can handle the homeschool learning approach with her since I've been doing it for 3 years now with her older sister.
     
    As I say, Stupidity is contagious. Well, this virus is contagious and if people remain stupid about things, then, of course, we'll see at least a 2nd wave of this virus. I've heard that the virus has possibly mutated already. That's a scary thought for those that have had it to think they could potentially get it again when they assumed they now have immunity towards it.
    I LOVE that analogy!! It is so true and perfect for this situation!

    Something a bit scary happened to me yesterday.
    I was running out of food so I had to go to the supermarket, but a) I didn't have a face mask, since they are impossible to find these days and pharmacies have run out of stock b) I wasn't sure whether or not masks were already mandatory in my city. In some cities they are, in some others they aren't (things have been very inconsistent in my country).
    So I look for info on the internet and find a lot of contradictory information, but there is one site that looks trustworthy and says that masks are gonna be made mandatory on Monday. Sweet, that means I'm safe.
    Or does it. Turns out that site had false information and masks were made mandatory a couple of days ago. So as soon as I went out a cop stopped me and threatened to give me a fine of almost a hundred dollars. I explained my situation to him and he let me go and even gave me a disposable face mask, but still, it was really scary.

    What worries me the most is that now the government is recommending people to use homemade face masks, even though up until two weeks ago they were advising against them because they simply don't work.  Newspapers that were giving detailed explanations as to why using them is pointless are now giving detailed tutorials on how to make them. All because the government wants to slowly transition out of the quarantine and let people out little by little. But they're going about it the wrong way. People are gonna go out thinking they are safe, get infected, and infect others in turn. It really is a mess.

    As for games/dailies not working, your browser is most likely disabling flash by default, but it should have an option to enable it, so try looking for it.
