Heart Glasses!

Greetings, Jammers! How are you?

Today in the Land of Jamaa, we have a returning item: The Heart Glasses! These clothing items are sold in Jam Mart Clothing for only 150 gems! Be sure to get a pair of these glasses if you like them- I know that a certain fox does!

Remember me?

Next, I have another curious question. What makes you happy? What makes you smile? What makes you laugh? Answer these three questions in the comments, and I might just have something special for you in a future post... So get commenting!

And now it is time for the factual part of this post:

Our wondrous word of the day:

Jabberwocky: Meaningless nonsensical speech; jibber-jabber.

So balderdash can be created using jabberwocky!

Did you know that there is actually a poem called the Jabberwocky? We had to study it at school.

A duck's quack never echoes anywhere. Ever. Never. Never ever. And no one knows why.

That is a terrifying thought... Maybe that is why some people develop anatidaephobia!

Good Smarts!

Heart Antennae, Heart Window, and Jammer Sundae #20!

Greetings Jammers! Can you believe how many weeks it has been since the very first Jammer Sundae? As you know, we must cover the item(s) before the Jammer Sundae, so let's get rolling, shall we?

Our first (returning) item is the heart antennae, which is sold for 300 gems in Jam Mart Clothing! I wonder... Is this item meant to be a bit of a literal take on the terms lovebug? This item is quite cute. If you like this item, be sure to buy one today!

Our next returning item is the Heart Window. This item is sold for 300 gems in Jam Mart Furniture! Not a bad item, save for the fact that the clouds move WAY too fast, but that's just me being nitpicky ^.^ Get one today!

Lately I have been thinking that some of these valentines day sayings are quite creepy. Don't get me wrong, I love those sugar heart candies (they taste amazing) but saying some of the things written on them is just... Strange...

Allow me to illustrate my thoughts in today's:

Bunny: "What a peaceful evening!"

Fox: "Be mine!"

Bunny "Who are you and what are you doing in my house?!"

Fox: "I'm buggy for you!"

Bunny: "What in blue blazes?"

Fox: "You make my heart sing!"

Bunny: "I don't even know you man! Get out of my house before I call Arcticstar!"

Fox: "Come here, Sugar! We can be together forever!!"

Bunny: "AHHHH!!!!"

Fox: "Hehehehehehehehe"

And somehow, they make it seem so beautiful in movies!

Now for the factual part of this post!

Our word of the day:

Ataraxy: A state of serene calmness.

Writing these posts, I have come to notice something. It never ceases to amaze me, with how many words we have for the same thing, yet how it is not possible to substitute one for another (you cannot permanently replace the word "like" with "love" because it isn't exactly the same)

Finally, our fact of the day:

A single chocolate chip can give a person enough energy to walk 150 feet (45.72 meters)

Chocolate power!

Snow Patch?

Greetings, my friends, and welcome to another day!

Our new item is sold in Jam Mart Furniture for 350 gems, and is available to both Non-members and Members alike! Introducing..... The Snow Patch? Why would you pay for snow? Explain your reasoning AJHQ! Anywho, if this item 'tickles your fancy' be sure to buy one today!

It is literally just a clump of snow!

Next, I have another Comment Call (I hope mldriver won't mind me using her term...) for you! I personally think this is a very big question. Here it is: Where is Jamaa? Is it on Earth? A different planet? Put your thinking caps on- I am excited to hear what your theories are? Please, you are more than welcome to rant! This ought to be good!

Now it is time for the factual part of this post!

Our word of the day:

Ethereal: Extremely delicate and light in a way that seems too perfect for this world.

What a beautiful word!

Our fascinating fact of the day:

In the Netherlands, there is an ethereal village called Giethoorn. In this village, cars are prohibited, electrical wires are underground, and the main mode of travel is by boat!

It is my dream to live there- someday, I shall make it there, and my soul will be at peace... (well that was deep) Another question for you: Where do you dream to live? If not a specific place, describe what would be your ideal setting! Don't be afraid to go into detail!

Good Smarts!

Rare Deer Antlers!

Greetings Jammers!

Today is Monday, meaning that we have a new rare item! Let's see what is in store for us today!

Introducing, the Rare Deer Antlers! You can buy a pair of "prongs" for 1000 gems in Jam Mart Furniture. Remember, this item is available today only!

Hmm... How strange it would be if there was a green-antlered reindeer instead of a red-nosed reindeer... It wouldn't be a very catchy song!

Today, I have another question for you. What is your favourite aspect of Animal Jam? What do you find most enjoyable? Is it the animals? Buddies? What makes you want to keep playing this wonderful game? Tell me in the comments (and feel free to rant!)

Now it is time for the factual part of this post:

Our word of the day: 

Corybantic: wild; frenzied.

What an interesting word!

And finally, our fact of the day:

Just like fingerprints, everyone has a unique tongue print.

Hmm... I would much prefer making prints (with ink and paper) with my fingers. I would not fancy licking an inkpad for identification purposes!

Good Smarts!

Snow Shoes, Carnation Bouquet, and Jammer Sundae #18

Greetings! Today is Sunday, meaning I have a post that is jam-packed with fun! However, there are other items we must discuss. Onward!

First, we have a returning item: the Snow Shoes! These can be found in the Shiveer Shoppe for 250 gems!

 Hmm... When I think of snow shoes, and when I search up snow shoes on the internet THIS is what comes up:

Alright! Today's item MUST be renamed. I bring thee, this! In stores today, we have a new item: The covering for the foot that has a sturdy sole that does not reach above the ankle that is also good for snow! Buy one today!

It may not sound pretty, but it is more accurate!

Next, we have the carnation bouquet! This lovely new item is just like its counterpart- the carnation. You can buy one of these in Treetop Gardens for 700 gems!

And now for our Jammer Sundae!

Have you ever felt so tired that you just:

I... Well... At least the dog is happy!

This is both funny and strange at the same time:

The photo speaks for itself:

That's all for this Jammer Sundae!

And now for the factual part of this post:

Our word of the day:

Balderdash: Senseless writing or speech; nonsense

That's balderdash!

The largest ever recorded snowflake was 15 inches wide and 8 inches thick!

That means it would 38 centimeters wide and 20 centimeters thick! That is one HUGE snowflake!


Good Smarts!

Humming Hot Memory

Jambo!

The underwater grand piano plays a melodic tune as I carry on with today's update news! We have a new adventure. AJHQ always blows my socks off with each new one.

In order for a desert to be forgotten, someone had to forget about it. There's an origin to everything. How do you think the desert was before it was forgotten?

Hummingbirds are back, and they're the only birds that can do that!

Flying backwards I mean.

It's confirmed, and hyenas will be the new animal. I wonder if their silly jokes can convince AJHQ to make them all-Jammer animals.

They had to make them laugh so hard to release the video early.

It's interesting going back to your place of origin. When I joined Animal Jam in 2012, the summer carnival was the first event I ever attended.

The prizes are simply awesome, and make good offers for other times of the year. Stock up when it comes!

Notice how a sale happens in between certain updates?

But the real question is, since the old hood is 40 gems, how much gems can a Jammer earn after recycling them?

And den portals are the hottest thing to break the space time continuum!

It's efficient, but keep in mind they're all members-only.

And sold in the Lost Temple Of Zios.

By the way, isn't the temple already found? Or does the fallen Zios idol represent the temple?

And finally, on the last page, an introduction to the new Daily Explorer.

We were basically beta testers for it before the update.

Kwaheri!

Double Mane Rackets

Jambo!

Tennis is my favorite sport, alongside bowling. The idea monster snapped and AJHQ finally released tennis rackets!

I think this should be a new mini-game. We haven't had a new one for years, and tennis makes for a competitive but friendly time.

I'd like to share a game tip, for the hardest achievement in Double Up.

They say nobody can be perfect, but if you take a screenshot of the completed board before the round begins then you could follow it and never get a mismatch! All in a few minutes' work.

And the most recent video in Brady Barr's Laboratory makes me wonder whether lion avatars are focused toward males in the game.

Lions have manes, and lionesses don't. So even if you use the eyelash eyes to signal other player's that you're a female lion, it still has a mane, and is still male in a way. So, should AJHQ create a lioness avatar, or not, and not go deep into one animal variety? This was the case with canines and felines.

Tell your opinion in the comments!

Kwaheri!

Plastic Park Planet

Jambo!

What's so special about today, you might be wondering until I give the answer?

Yep, the last day to buy a pet cheetah.

Apparently they'll come back soon. But who knows?

Dens are falling apart because of this hectic news.

Hang in there small house. You only house one Jammer. YOHOJ!

In other news, Tierney Thys has discovered a hermit crab with a plastic pen cap home.

Don't you think it's bad that animals are depending on these items like plastic to survive, but are being killed by it? Hopefully that crab can find a better shell.

Which brings me to a little historic water park history.

They're not for me. The calm slide life can;t hold back this roller coaster-er.

And we finally get to the new item, the Zios rug. Can you wonder why I saved it until last?

In the original legends, AJHQ mentioned that Zios created many stars and planets, and set them in motion. He sent eons creating lots of things. What could be on those other planets? Do you think some of them are alternate dimensions?

Kwaherini!
