Jubjub re-vamp

[zebru]

O_o

I'll don't think I'll be ever able to look at marquan jubjub with same eyes agian... *looks for a bucket*

[Silverevilchao]

Haha, speaking of Maraquan. My best friend had high hopes when her lab rat turned into a jubjub, so she could get island. Unfortunately she got maraquan. She said "Great, now I have a freaking heart as a pet!"



...you can hardly tell the difference

o.O;;

It doesn't look at all like a heart...

[AngharadTy]

Yes, it does, especially with those colors. It has all the tubes coming off its body.

[Sparrow]

A human heart's a lot more complex than just a buncha tubes coming off a blob of muscle. I have to agree with Silver; it looks nothing like a heart. Now, the colors in that diagram are similar. But they only draw it that way to make it easier for students to identify structures. A heart in vivo looks nothing like that.



(This is the best photo I could find of a real heart, and it's not that great... looks like they cut off the major arteries and veins. I wanted one of an open heart surgery where you could see the heart's placement in the chest, but couldn't find one that was terribly clear. This will have to do. )

Don't mind me, I was just eating pizza as I scrolled down to that photo.

*BOIK*

[AngharadTy]

It... it's just a joke... it's funny that it looks like a textbook-heart. I laughed.

Ah, well.

[Sparrow]

It... it's just a joke... it's funny that it looks like a textbook-heart. I laughed.

I didn't. Biology-nerd here--I have always taken my subject perhaps a bit too seriously, and love to point out when people are wrong. That, and it was a good excuse for me to gross people out. By Phoebe's reaction, I can see my work here is done. Carry on.

I am a biology nerd, too; really, my love is paleontology, which means I get the best of both geology and biology.

If you can't laugh at yourself, then you've got nothing.

A human organ for a neopet would be really fun.

True, true. I'll admit I didn't get the joke at first, so that makes me look a little silly. But, eh! Nice to meet a fellow scientist!

And, yeah, a human organ would make a cool neopet... maybe a Mutant of some kind?

[Cyaneus]

I'm also a biology nerd, but I didn't really get the joke until you posted that diagram. Then it became pretty amusing.

Or a petpet -

It doesn't look at all like a heart...

My heart looks exacly like that... especially the two glistening black pits of evil in the middle. Seriously, when it first came out I thought it looked like a textbook drawing of a heart, with all the tubes and stuff. Or a lady in hair rollers.

[Scythemantis]

Before there was a mutant jubjub, I always hoped they would make it into just a giant pink brain with eyeballs. The mutant jubjub we have is okay, but I still think the brain would have been more obvious.

Circle and sad pose of halloween jubjub have appeared:
EDIT: Strawberry and stary as well.
