What animal represents your happyness?
 
For the non-British posters who are undoubtably wondering what the heck I'm talking about, Cadbury's Chocolate recently did an advertisment campaign whereby the emotion of happyness was represented in the advert by a small animal that was different for each type of person. (for example giggly girls had a hyena, people with curly hair had sheep, etc.) The idea was that eating Cadbury's Chocolate made your happyness... happy...

Anyways I've asked all my friends this same question and now it has come time to put it to you, the people of OWF. What animal would your happyness be and why?

Erm, a Cheetah? I'm happy when I go fast.. Soo... I guess a Cheetah would be mine.

Abe16 04-13-2005 02:13 PM

Well, :\ A cheerful puppy. I'm happy 24/7.

soulstice 04-13-2005 02:19 PM

Dog, definitely.

SeaRex 04-13-2005 02:28 PM

Cat.

Superficially independent, but always happy when someone pays attention to me.

Flying Scrab 04-13-2005 03:00 PM

I would probably say I'm most like one of those ugly "human" things... Haha, I think I'm like a squirrel, cos they're just so freaking kool!

Nate 04-13-2005 03:34 PM

I'd say a possum because I love irritating people, keeping them awake at night and pooping everywhere.

Al the Glukkon 04-13-2005 05:00 PM

I'm not sure, though my favorite animal is the Fox.

Paco_the_Taco 04-13-2005 06:54 PM

Whatever animal can't stand noise and dirt.

Dipstikk 04-13-2005 07:02 PM

Monolophosaurus. Because it's a crested theropod with a penchant for killing.

...Just like...me?

Havoc 04-14-2005 12:54 AM

Mine would be...

...

Oh nvr mind...

Alcar 04-14-2005 03:41 AM

A monkey.

Not only can they be lazy, but they are so cheerful and rather bouncy. Bounciness is a good thing :D

Alcar...

mudling 04-14-2005 04:00 AM

armadillo, timid, protects itself, travels on it's own and likes exploring and traveling.

stingbee 04-14-2005 04:01 AM

mine is a dog they are always excited

Coolmanbizkit 04-14-2005 06:02 AM

Mine is probably a monkey, Because when im happy it usually means im also a bit hyped up :) and monkeys are always lively.

Hobo 04-14-2005 07:12 AM

Monkey - Horny, evil and damn cool

Shinjara 04-14-2005 07:57 AM

Definetely the Hyenas, XD.

TheRaisin 04-14-2005 02:59 PM

Hmm. I would be a dog, because there's no happy medium of emotion with a dog. They're either insanely happy or very mopey and despondent. And they like a good belly-rub. :fuzgrin:

Leto 04-14-2005 10:26 PM

Probably a fat bird. Well, more like my fat family bird...

I peck anyone who comes near me, and I'm generally pissed off all the time. Plus, I'm really lazy, hence the 'fat' bird bit...

ANN NEELY 04-15-2005 12:57 PM

A black leopard. Generally annoyed, pissed off, unreasonable, vicious, evil, and untame.

Silversnow 04-16-2005 01:32 PM

I can't think of anything better than a sloth. They seem to be smiling most of the time and likes to take it slow.

Fuzzleman54321 04-16-2005 01:41 PM

I'm a puppy! woohoo!

AquaticAmbi 04-16-2005 04:24 PM

I'd like to think of myself as a dolphin. I need close friends, and I usually have a friendly, bubbly personality. But sometimes... I seem to have contradicting feelings, so I guess the fact that a dolphin has to live in water but breathe air from the surface could symbolize that. Or something. Anyway, I'm also a curious and intelligent (I say with modesty, by the way) person, which are common characteristics of dolphins.

Coolmanbizkit 04-16-2005 07:33 PM

I dont really think Dolphins are curious, just clever enough to know what things are and what they do, im not saying that they know how to drive a submarine or anything because thats just silly.

TheRaisin 04-16-2005 08:22 PM

Your contradictory traits could be represented by the fact that dolphins, while appearing all smiley and loveable and fun, are actually cold-blooded killers. But meh, your thing works too. :D

Nepharski 04-16-2005 08:28 PM

Probably a Fleech or something. :P

If we're limited to just Earth, though, I'd sy...probably a llama. Why? Because llamas are awesome.

Ajiellyn 04-30-2005 10:49 AM

Kangaroo! I'm very protective and I love defending things, and I have a strong maternal sense even though I'm not very old yet. I like kangaroos anyway, they're one of my favorite animals right now.

I'm lazy and relaxed most of the time, but I have the tendency to rush at the times when I need to relax and relax at the times when I need to rush.

Mines kind of like a kangaroo. But I watching animal planet with my friends, and there was this footage of some sort of hopping mouse. It was basically a miniturized kangaroo with a little mouse face. We called it a kangamouse.

So that's my answer. I'd be a kangamouse.

And Coolmanbizkit, according to The HitchHiker's Guid to the Galaxy, dolphins are the 2nd smartest beings on Earth. So thumbs-up to dolphins!

TheRaisin 04-30-2005 11:48 AM

And mice are the smartest, correct? Because they're actually pan-dimensional beings...

Is this the animal you saw? That'd be a gerbil.

Kimon 04-30-2005 03:36 PM

No, it wasn't a gerbil, I'm sure. It was some kind of mice indigenous to the area they were from (which I can't recall at the moment). Believe me, they were DEFINETLY kagamice. :p

Dark Elite_H2 04-30-2005 03:39 PM

Dragon. Definently. Im as mean as the dragon, tough as the dragon, and, well...... smart as it.... i guess..

Leto 04-30-2005 04:47 PM

Arf, arf. :D *claps* Was that before or after you saw HHGTTG?

Actually, I'd be less of a fat bird, and more of a guinea pig... For I am a social creature, and can slide on my underbelly. :p

TheRaisin 05-01-2005 12:15 PM

I remembered that tidbit from the book, and posted it a few hours before seeing the movie. :D

Come to think of it, I would be a less social creature than a dog. Like... an iguana? Yeah, that sounds about right.

Rex Tirano 05-01-2005 02:53 PM

A Panda.

Cuddly. Fun. And eats a hell of alot.

Couldabeen any one of a hundred animals. We've lots of little hopping creatures, most of which are almost extinct admittedly.

Possibly a Quokka, though they aren't that small

Or a Bilby

They're the two that pop into mind first.
