God I hate E.T. I want to shove his head in a toilet.
E.T.: The Extraterrestrial is a shame made by Dipsy as a gift for Laa-Laa, and as an admission of his love for her. It is currently Laa-Laa's favorite shame ever, but Tinky Winky broke it when he tried to use it as a frisbee. Because of this, Dipsy decided, "fuck it" and made more copies of the shame. He then distributed them publicly to make a profit, which would backfire spectacularly. it is allegedly based off of E.T. and the time Dispy accidentally blew his planet up. The kid from the movie doesn't appear past the box art though. What was his name again? Help!
Synopsis[]
Admittedly, we don't know the shame's plot, but we do know of the shameplay. E.T. runs around looking like he has an unhinged ever-screaming jaw. He goes to a bunch of pantheon buildings and falls down lots of holes. Then he grabs a dot and procedes to ascend to the highest abodes of Heaven, then God rejects E.T. for his unspoken criminal record and sends him back to Rome. There are also weird pink men who try to strangle E.T. like a swan/goose or whatever Gumball Watterson said in that one episode of his show I forgor 💀.
You just kinda do that for a long amount of time while listening to beeps and boops, until the timer at the bottom of the screen counts down to 0 and stops E.T.'s heart... not the shame E.T., the real one.
Reception[]
The shame was highly anticipated because Dipsy was releasing it during the Christmas season. However, people picked it apart the second it came out because it sucked. People wanted to tear apart the plot, but since they didn't know it they just theorized E.T. was about to DIE so he tried to make amends with those who he wronged in the past. That plot was stupid, and the shameplay was stupider.
E.T. is currently seen as the worst shame to do the whole existing rodeo, just as bad as Call of Ducky 2. It also released in 1983, when Crash Bandicoot accidentally hit a shelf of shames in his local Target and made it fall over, that made the shame a scapegoat for that incident. Skulldozer and the Angry Video Game Nerd are afraid of it, and various copies were buried in Telotub Land, where they malformed into the earliest Mooninites. Laa-Laa's current copy is the only remaining one in existence.
