Pressing the buttons failed to quiet the device, so I attempted to open the unit up to remove the battery. When that failed I finally put the Tamagotchi in a plastic bag and hit it several times with a hammer until it finally shut up.
Later I confessed the destruction of the virtual pet to my daughter who seemed not to care in the least. The fad had ended. But next on my daughters' wish list: Nintendogs.
"euthanasia" literally means "GOOD death". It's the same "eu-" as in euphemism and eulogy. Does being wrapped in a plastic bag and then hammered count as having a good death? If so, then that guy Mowhoush didn't have it too bad after all.
