A discussion about the magazine between two peppy villagers may result in one animal mentioning the High Heels Special of said magazine, and then asking the other if she still has martial arts classes. The other animal will then use the "Rage" emotion, because she thinks the animal who asked is calling her a wimp. The angry animal will then realize what she meant by commenting, "Oh yeah... You could do some real damage wearing them..." Every once and a while, a villager who reads Ms. Nintendique will tell you she had taken a quiz from the magazine and then made her own quiz, wanting the player to take it. Some villagers will also say that they have purchased a certain item from "Ms. Nintendique" and have accidentally bought two of the same item, meaning that they will give the player the second item.
