so in jmod, there’s this gnome that can randomly appear when you scrounge for props. while I was doing a jmod challenge and scavenging for materials to turn into supplies, i happened to find the gnome. it was my first time seeing it, so I assumed it was just a random prop. i tried using the grinder to grind it for resources, but nothing happened, so I just placed it somewhere out of the way and continued with what i was doing.

later, when I returned to the area with the grinder and other machines, the gnome was gone. i figured it had just despawned and didn’t think much of it. A while later, while I was smelting some ore I’d found, I turned around to grab more and that DAMN gnome was standing on my oil rig.

that immediately caught me off guard. I stopped what I was doing, grabbed it with my physgun, and used the advanced remover tool to analyze it. the tool showed that the gnome was from jmod (because the entity name was "ent_jack_gmod_ezanomaly_gnome", which made me realize it must’ve come from when I scrounged earlier. I laughed it off realizing it was just some random troll the jmod devs added.

but a paparazzi randomly spawned on the map while i was messing with the gnome, walked right up behind me as i was turning around after saving the gnome as a dupe and removing it, and scared me so hard i almost pissed myself-
