What's with angry birds' images that everyone seems to love it? From flip-flops/slippers, bags, t-shirts, bracelets, etc. Almost everyone I see around, a young child or an old folk, has an angry bird image on one or two of their things. Because of it's popularity, I feel like buying something that has an angry bird image on it
Well, I know it's an addictive game and I don't have anything against it but I can't help noticing just recently, I think during the last 5 months, that there are 'angry birds' in almost everything and everyone I see. Are you a fan of Angry Birds, too? Do you have something, aside from the game, that has the pictures of angry birds with you?
Thanks

Well i like the game, but not so much or you can call it not so fans about Angry bird, so i didn't buy Angry Bird 'things' like you said, but it's true since Angry Bird game became popular among the video game, and most of their fans are children, teenager because the characters look cute and funny, some of apparel manufacture look this as an opportunity to sell it on the market, which they think can be sold widely

Yes, you are right. Business people saw this as an opportunity to tempt angry birds fans to buy their products/merchandise.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts :)

My wife actually loves playing it on her iPad. I tried it a few times and it's okay. I guess it's the fad nowadays. But we didn't buy any angry birds stuff although my son got a Christmas gift of an angry bird non-electronic game :) I must admit though that the characters are quite "cute" even if all sport an angry face. I was almost tempted to give my wife a black angry bird stuffed toy, the one that turns into a bomb, I think, to put in her car but she wasn't in favor of it.

Same here, I also found that game normal. Don't know why it became so popular. Also, I think you should try giving that black stuffed toy to your son. He will surely love it.

Yes, it's one way for business people to get rich or richer. Cute or not, many people buy just to go with the flow.
Thanks, sumanadep!

Hahaha, I can really laugh out loud with that angry bird mania. It is widespread and in Philippines, they call them the national bird, hahaha.. I don't have any idea on how to play with the angry bird game because I don't have the guts to play on them. I am afraid I may get used and become addict to it.

Funny, the angry bird as our national bird now? Anyway, better not try playing it or you might get addicted.
Thanks for the comment, gaea23!

The latest fad that will likely burn itself out in a few months. Then it will go into the "Hey Remember When...[Blank] was popular file. I think that the angry birds is just something that a lot of people are rather obsessed with but obsession could be short lived. I think that it might be at the peak right now. Could flame out in three months, six months, or maybe a year.
Things tend to come and go like this. Popularity is something that has been rather fleeting for a number of reason. Angry birds fever is really gripping the nature, much to the joy of some, the amusement of others, and the annoyance of some. Its just another fad fancy that I'm just going to sit back, watch, have very little interest in, and burn out eventually. That's just the way things go.

Yes, it will eventually burn out as you've said. I wonder what will be the next one though. Before, it was donald duck/mickey mouse, etc., just like showbiz celebrities, they will lose their popularity sooner or later.
Thanks for sharing :)

I know right.
Me and some family members had an exchange gift last Christmas and Angry Bird was just all over the place when I went to buy gifts. I can see it in keychains, hats, pants... just everywhere.
I was never a fan because I really don't know what it is lol. And most of the gift given in our Christmas party had Angry Bird as the sender lol.

So Santa Claus has become one of the Angry Birds, then Yup, you're right angry birds are seen even in the smallest accessories or souvenirs. Haven't seen one as an avatar yet, though.
Thanks for the response, tessa! Happy angry bird hunting,

Hi neelia,
You are correct,angry birds are everywhere.
From shoes to caps
My daughter loves playing angry birds and she has some items of its figure like,bag,slipper,stuff toy and even pj's.
Maybe because kids are so in to it that is why it is becoming more popular.I also play angry birds before but not anymore,i find it boring and repetitive kind of game.

I think when a child sees fellow children having things with a character on it, even if she doesn't know what it is, she would want to have one or two of them, too.
Thanks, tamirs, I'm sure you have something also with an angry bird on it

Not the game though. The things that are being displayed and sold in town like the shirts they are selling and everything, from accessories to whatever people are using. Yes, I just noticed it within the last 5 months, how people love to buy and use things that has an angry bird image on them.
Thanks, anyway, for the response....

I like the game but I do not play it nor am I addicted to it 24/7. With regard to the things you mentioned having an image of the Angry Bird characters, I do not have one and I do not intend of having any :) I can't imagine myself walking in the street and seeing others also wearing the same clothes with the exact image of the popular birds. It seems to have become a school uniform that everyone wears :)

Lol, yes it's just like a school uniform everyone wears. Imagine last christmas time during exchange gift, someone received a t-shirt with an angry bird which is exactly the same with what he's given! That happened to my daughter's schoolmate.
Thanks for the response!

Iam not fan of the game, I only play it when Iam really bored, but even then Iam playing not always Angry Birds 9/10 times I play Plants vs. Zombies. And I don't have any Angry Birds fan articles in house. I own all the Angry Birds ; Rio, Seasons and the Normal one.

Nah....I don't like the game (Sorry all 'angry birds' fans out there). I rather play 'Worms' on my java mobile. But ya, I agree with neelia. Angry Birds has become very popular and I think it is the hottest mobile game of 2011. It has become a sort of must have for android and, all the mobile vendors are mentioning it in their mobile specs. Well the times of Snake Deluxe and Sudoku have gone....LOL.
