Place your random thoughts.

Because the hourly music isnā€™t the same in two different Animal Crossing games (save for Wild World and City Folk), the tone Iā€™ve been interpreting from each song differs on the same hour.

Example 1 - 3 AM:
  • Nintendoā€™s vision - an hour thatā€™s very quiet and strange to be up.
  • GameCube Version (my interpretation) - sounds like you woke up in the middle of night, groggy, as the town is too quiet.
  • Wild World (my interpretation) - sounds like a nighttime jamboree, pretty lively for one of the least active hours.
  • New Leaf (my interpretation) - sounds like the night before Christmas or another day during Winter Break. Just thinking about this takes me back to the year 2003 (when I went to California for Christmas break).
  • New Horizons (my interpretation) - sounds like youā€™ve been awake in an uncharted territory, so things start getting weirder.
Example 2 - 7 PM:
  • Nintendoā€™s vision - the eveningā€™s final hour, as itā€™s the last hour for daylight.
  • GameCube Version (my interpretation) - a very depressing tune that mourns the daylight hours, as the day is over.
  • Wild World (my interpretation) - a lullaby telling us that itā€™s time for bed.
  • New Leaf (my interpretation) - instead of a sad tune reminding us that the day is over, itā€™s more of a mystery tune reminding us that night has begun. As I call it - the nightfall tune.
  • New Horizons (my interpretation) - has the same vibes the 8 PM music from the GameCube version (which is the first tune after the sun is gone), but more like a summer garage band tune.
Does anyone else have alternative interpretations of different hourly music by game?

Here's another example:
7 AM:
  • Nintendo's interpretation: the time the day should really start, and more villagers are waking up.
  • GameCube Version (my interpretation) - fast paced and energetic. It sounds happy.
  • Wild World (my interpretation) - more like Nintendo's interpretation. It feels like the day is starting.
  • New Leaf (my interpretation) - it sounds tired, but still upbeat. It's also similar to Nintendo's interpretation.
  • New Horizons (my interpretation) - very upbeat, especially with the percussion. It seems like the game wants you to get out of bed.
 
thank goodness i used to post more on the animal crossing trading boards so at least the cringe from a few years ago is harder to find, i can kind of hide my shame lmao
 
discussion abt cringe pasts on tbt made me think to go back and look at a thread I posted in a bunch way back in 2017... if that ain't the biggest oof ever šŸ˜©

it's funny just how immature even a senior in high school can be sometimes. I'm thankful to have grown and matured since then, I'm sure I still have more growing to do but I'm not nearly as cringe as I was six-seven years ago lol.



edit: also guys tell me why I had a dream where I found a Boolossus plushie and I really wanted it lmaoo hsjfhsfj
 
So thereā€™s that horribly homophobic joke right wing Christians like to use that God made Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve to justify why being LGBTQ is ā€œwrong and sinful,ā€ right? But then they claim God made literally everyone and there are people named Steve. So where do people name Steve come from if God didnā€™t make them? Isnā€™t that creating a paradox?
 
I've seen memes where people say homework is bad because ā€œif school isn't a place for sleep, then home isn't a place for workā€. I get that it's a joke, and I don't necessarily like homework either, but it's stupid. First, it implies that all you do at home is sleep, which, if that's the case, you kind of do deserve homework. Second, the reason you shouldn't sleep in school is probably so you can, I don't know, actually pass the class. Wow, I'm inspecting this way too deeply.

I thought of using this joke as one of the villain quotes in a game idea, just to define another evil characteristic in the villain. But at the same time, Iā€™m not sure if this is a good idea. Even if itā€™s only the bad guys who would say it, it could still offend some audiences.

I was immature in my late high school and early college years too. Remember when I told you about that long hurtful post I made on Little Big Planet Central? That was normal for me to behave like this back then.

Now if there were some cringeworthy posts I made in the past on this site, I wouldnā€™t want to look at the posts where I misbehaved myself. But I did find a few posts I made on this thread that sounded a bit too hostile towards the staff and how I was unwilling to accept change as TBT transitioned during the ACNH years.

Totally nothing shady.

even with this, I still agree with the sentiment that doing schoolwork at home is incredibly stupid and a waste of time, honestly.
 
i want fall to come so bad, i have new clothes i want to wear but canā€™t because itā€™s too hot šŸ˜”
 
Wanna know what the worst part about Disneylandā€™s Pirates of the Caribbean ride? Itā€™s that long lift hill after the prison section. Why? Because it means that the ride is over. Even though the ride lasts 15 minutes (which is one of the longest for a Disneyland ride), I still donā€™t like to see the end.

Actually, I thought of something worse. If youā€™re going for two to five days, the moment you check out of a hotel room and leave to the airport is the worst part. Especially when you have to go back to school the next few days.
 
My opinion of 9pm and 4am in Wild World are constantly fluctuating. I have a set opinion for every other game's version of this song. 9pm and 4am from GameCube are great and bad respectively. In New Leaf, 9pm is okay and 4am is really good. In New Horizons both are pretty extremely eh. And for WW/CF, I think they're the worst songs the game has to offer, but recent experiences make me not want to dislike them. I've been playing Wild World at 9 more often recently, and 4am might be very annoying but there's something about it I kind of like. The entire thing is just kind of weird.
 
its crazy what braces can do to your face, i was looking at photos of myself from 2 years ago and i look very different now that im almost done with braces, itā€™s like my facial structure changed.

Here are my weirdest interpretations of the hourly music. I already said that ACNLā€™s 3 AM soundtrack sounds like a night from the two-week school vacation during Christmas.
  • 11 AM (GameCube) and 3 PM (New Leaf) sound like some amusement park soundtracks, even though the 1 PM soundtrack from Wild World sounds the best like an amusement park soundtrack.
  • 10 AM (Wild World) sounds like there is hope when times are rough.
  • 8 PM (Wild World) sounds like the rough times are finally over. It also sounds like a certain time period is coming to an end, but the worst parts of it is over.
  • 4 PM (GameCube) sounds like an autumn evening, whereas 4 PM (Wild World) sounds like a summer evening. But if this is true, then a couple of morning tunes like 6 AM (New Leaf) sounds like a spring morning.
  • 4 AM (New Leaf) sounds like a zombie rising sequence.
  • 3 PM (Wild World) sounds like a ā€œcoming up nextā€ commercial.
  • 10 PM (New Horizons) and 2 AM (New Leaf) are fitting for an ancient ruins theme.
And if you noticed, some of the hourly soundtracks do sound the same (or remind you of) as another. Examples:
  • 1 PM (GameCube) and 2 PM (New Leaf)
  • 1 AM (Wild World) and 12 AM (New Horizons)
  • 4 PM (New Leaf) and 5 PM (Wild World)
  • 6 PM (New Horizons) and 2 AM (Wild World)
