I especially like the part on #4 where it says "Any and all items and/or powerbucks (the powerpets.com currency) is fictional" which 1. should be "are fictional" and 2. fictional is a funny word. Try it! Fik-shun-ull!
Another weird part is on #9 where they are basically saying, "Use English all the time or else we will kill you."
Also note the link to their privacy policy in #8 leads to a 404...
