Funny, this happened to me in Rush Mode when two Tabbies spawned ontop of each other and floated towards me before falling into the sea at the beach.

Oh! My wild crystals in the grotto run around like crazy, and one got glitched and was floating by a wall spinning until I got off and got back on again. It was pretty funny.

Once, while I was walking through the Mushroomy part of the Moss Blanket, I came across a hunter slime who popped out of the ground, landed on its head, and spun around for a few seconds before jumping right side up.

Is it just me or does that slime divide into two identical ones that fly off in different directions.

No, it just goes extremely fast in one direction, hits a surface and bounces in the other direction. It's how slimes normally behave when they hit a surface; they're meant to be bounced away and how much it is bounced depends on its momentum when it makes contact. But in this case it happens much, much faster. In fact it happens so fast it doesn't even leave a paint splatter.

Slimes are designed to alter their shape slightly as they hop to keep the illusion that they're not completely solid. But when collision errors like this happen and it zooms off in a random direction it punches the mechanic in the face through its intended limit, so you see a momentary stretching effect. I've seen it more than a few times myself. And it's hilarious every time.

My bad, it was in the wilds, and I have a GIF.
If only I knew how to post it. :p

You need use the Direct link url IMGur provides for embeds to work. I only managed to see the image by quoting you and copypasting the URL while I was typing up my response. Even then I don't know if embeds currently work with .gifv links. I've had nothing but problems with it myself.

I do that too. That way I can see what is going on. And stalk people.

Not strictly slimes, but I was sidestepping in some vain attempt to avoid feral sabers while waiting for a Mudball to break and this happened.

I was referring to the Kookas spinning madly as they were being sucked into the vacpack. Look more closely.

It doesn't have to be weird to qualify being posted in this thread and I never said it was. The point is that I found it amusing.
