    Ah shit the sheep thing! In fact, there were others I can’t remember. And I seem to remember somewhere along the line they went from fun to spam things walking around your screen trying to make you buy shit or maybe they were trying to scam you, I can’t remember but they weren’t fun anymore, and hard to get rid of.

      I remember an obscure one named “grommit” that was a dancing animated character and you’d click it to change arm and leg movements.

      Bonzi buddy was over of the bad ones, maybe?

        Bonzai buddy! Yes, that was one. Also I seem to recall naked women ones you couldn’t close.

        I don’t remember grommit, but also I failed to find anything when trying to search it up. It shares its name with too many things.

      I had a cottonelle puppy so basically a toilet paper ad. But it’s not even sold in my country, we have other brands.
