Their body structure is also very comparable to the cactus, but they are most likely designed after upright [[bean]]s. Their civilization is apparently very old; the [[Hoohoo Civilization|ancient Hoohooligans]] wrote jokes in an ancient language called [[Hooroglyph]]y and constructed the [[Hoohooros]].
