I dunno why I'm telling you guys this now, but I kind of wanted to let you know about something I found a while ago.
Basically I recall scrolling through a Pico's School-related tag on Tumblr to see some art (not that I have a Tumblr account; I was just visiting to see some fanart of Pico characters or something), and I remember coming across this one guy who was planning on making a "remake" of the game or something along those lines. So I thought, "okay, that sounds pretty cool! I wonder what they have in store for a possible remake of the game." and I then decided to look into it via their profile, and... that's where it goes to a complete 180. To put it simply, the person planning on making a "remake" of Pico's School basically tore the OG game to shreds (because the humor apparently didn't live up to modern day according to them), especially the Ghettobots (I get they were designed after racist stereotypes, but it's not like Tom was actually racist. And they're fucking robots anyway; they aren't even "real" ghetto boys. Not to mention even I, a person of color, am not offended by them, especially considering the year of their debut game). The person also called Cassandra a "negative transgender stereotype" (if I recall, but it was still some bs claim that even I thought to myself didn't make any sense. So either way... yeah, try to wrap your head around that). Like... what the actual fuck?! First of all, the penilians are fucking aliens (and fictional aliens, at that); they don't have the same human gender classification, and Tom Fulp certainly wasn't making fun of transgender people while designing Cassandra. What led you to that conclusion?
The reason I say that "I recall" is because, several months ago, I tried finding the original artist who claimed all of this, but their account was wiped, so I couldn't find shit. But still, this person existed, let's just put it that way. I understand it if people are put off by Pico's type of humor, but still, don't make outlandish claims like this guy did (and especially considering the guy honestly made Tom Fulp look awful; I can't imagine someone digging up something I made years ago to try and paint me as a horrible person).

They are probably just looking for attention.

Yeah, probably. Or they were one of those "Tumblr snowflakes" that took the game too seriously. And it kinda sucks because the art they made for their remake was actually really cool.
