Hey! No Moosen talk! This thread is flatly proving that Penguin, Penguins I say, are always hilarious.
Insert them into jokes, characters, or photos and they will send the most steadfast into fits of laughter and nose-liquid spewing snickers.
Penguins…not meese.
“Penguins are so senstive
To my needs.”
Dumbass moment of youth:
Remember the song, “The Mighty Quinn”?
When it was first popular, I was singing along with it as it played on the radio. Friends were in the car. I loudly sang along with the chorus, “The Mighty Penguin”…thinking those were, indeed, the lyrics.
My friends never let me live that one down, and now every time I hear the song, I think of penguins.
I’d been saying that penguins were funny for so long that finally my friends gave me one for my birthday! Well, they adopted him for me. Here’s a picture!
He’s just like a real kid - the other day he wrote to me for money as he wanted to meet a penguin lady and build a home. I politely refused and never heard from him again.
I have a stuffed Opus with antlers and Christmas ornaments hanging from them. I also have the more common one with the bow tie.
Mean penguin! I wish this were my livejournal icon.
I have a calendar that shows two penguins walking along a beach, holding hands. Flippers. Whatever.
People come to my office just to giggle at the picture.
I, for one, welcome our Penguin Overlords!
What?
Yep, penguins are inherently funny. How about cold penguins and yetis and penguins in space.
What’s white, black, and red and can’t move around in a phone booth?

I used to play a game like that with my brother. Gravity Wars or something like that. Ah, memories.
ARRGGGGHHH!!! PENGUINS!!!
Sorry. I couldn’t let this thread die that fast.
Penguins!!
I remember going to the zoo when I was little, and seeing the penguins. They would swim around and when I pressed my little mittened hands up to the glass they would come over and try to bite them! It was so fun moving your hands around so they would chase them.
What I really like though, are puffins.
I agree penguins are hilarious.
I went to Capetown a few years ago and visited Boulder Beach, one of the biggest Penguin reserves.
One small drawback to penguins : they smell and they are noisy.
I also understood they can bite something fierce.
Capetown penguins sing this song
Doo-dah, doo-dah
Boulder Beach is five miles long
Oh the doo-dah day.
Gonna swim all night
Gonna swim all day
I bet my money on the Little Blue
Somebody bet on the Adelie
Thank you, thank you, I’ll be here all night.
Check out the link at the bottom of the Little Blue’s page that says “Listen to the call of a Fairy penguin.” That’s some serious snoring! :eek:
Have you seen the critter in the HP commercial from Madagascar? They escape the zoo and make it to Antarctica…
The show the wide angle shot of them, the short one slowly lifting its feet, pacing in place as an attempt to stay warm, this is the humor I’m talking about.
This picture* makes me laugh every time I see it. It helps that I have a friend obsessed with penguins and I could definitely see her trying this.
*picture’s work safe, advertisements may vary
Aren’t those penguins supposed to be rather menacing? I remember a trailer in which they are dragging a guy around the corner of a building, after bonking him on the head. And another character says of them “The penguins are psychotic!”
I burning your penguins.
