Bad Geek Apparel of the Week: That Goddamn Owl From Candy Crush on a Miniskirt

I play Candy Crush, like, a LOT. When one’s day job involves figuring out how to place words in front of one another to form some kind of coherent thought (results may vary), I appreciate a game that requires no thinking whatsoever, and can be played while intoxicated. For those of you who don’t play, Odus the owl comes from a series of sub-levels called Dreamland, in which, every time you make a mistake, Odus falls off his moon-shaped perch and you lose.

I don’t dislike this skirt because I’m holding a grudge against Odus. Rather, I am suggesting that a character whose defining feature is falling off of a moon might not be super-appropriate adorning one’s rear end. As in, I can already practically hear some bozo yell “Hey baby, I’d like to see Odus fall down off your full moon, in my Dreamland!” [Yes, I’m aware his perch is a crescent moon, but anyone hypothetically dumb enough to pitch that pick-up line might forget] Or, perhaps worse, “I can keep Odus up all night, because I’m good at keeping things up that long.”

But yeah, I also fucking dislike Odus. Little bastard has kept me stuck on the same level for months.
