Have you tried the game on their site? It's kind of like curling. Or as close to curling as I'll ever get. :) It's a bit addictive. I have to get back to it now.

AOM

Of course Quatchi will be a goalie. The fuggin' sasquatch takes up more than 75% of the damned net.

OK, aside from looking like a cross between Japanese Anime and Hello Kitty...
First we here that Muck Muck means Cum, now some more fuel for the kettle. Quatchi is similar to Horny. A combiination of Quivering and crotch, Quatchi is that quivering feeling you get in your croth when you get sexually aroused. Can work for male or female

My problem isn't that they're "too Asian." Calling them "Asian" is insulting to Asian people, and not because you're equating "Asian" with "bad" but because you're equating so-cutesy-I-have-to-die with "Asian."

What the issue is is that they've appropriated (oh I'm sorry... "taken" or "borrowed" or "used as a guide") Native Canadian myths and icons and thrown them through some kind of Hello Kitty-fier merchandising process which has resulted in the complete demeaning of not only Native Canadian cultures and beliefs but also of Asian cultures.

I mean seriously, they're cute, but they're painfully cute and were I even remotely in favour of Vancouver/Whistler hosting the Olympics they're the last things I would want representing Vancouver. Atlhough, as a very wise friend of mine said, Native and Asian cultural imagery, myth, and icons appropriated for the capitalistic glorication and promotion of the white power elite--maybe they do 100% percent represent Canada and Vancouver.

Plus you just have a hard-on for Quatchi over the hockey thing. If none of them liked hockey, you'd be so against all of them. :P Hopefully Quatchi is young enough that he doesn't screw up your cougarity. :P~~~

I have to admit the whole "mysterious forests of Canada" thing was a bit weird. I didn't realise our plots of trees were so arcane and unknowable.

And seriously, don't all Canadians reside near the mysterious forests of Canada? Heaven knows why people are so gah-gah over Stanley Park that a windstorm bringing down some trees in it occupies countless local news cycles is mysterious to me. *grin*
