emily dogmomI went to the aquarium today and there was a guy in a wetsuit pushing a penguin around on a box, back and forth through the water
someone asked why and he says, "yeah, she kinda just really likes riding on the box"
I'm still not over it y'all
Violet MadderWell, who wouldn't.
@violetmadder right? I, too, would like to enjoy a box ride thank you
Yes, good wetsuit man, propel me to the places I have never seen!
Dashie@violetmadder @nasamuffin In some universe, these are song lyrics from the sixties.

@pineywoozle βs #3WordNote@Pineywoozle @lorddimwit @nasamuffin I'm egalitarian about these things: I'd love to be the penguin but I'm also happy to take my turn pushing the box.
@AdaraAstin Well yeah, itβs no fun always being the penguin, but from now on when I want to be pampered my go to phrase is gonna be βBut I wanna be the penguinβ π€£ π€£ π€£ @lorddimwit @nasamuffin
Heliograph@nasamuffin in the wild they would probably float around on little ice sheets π§π 
Amateur Human@Heliograph @nasamuffin when the ice is all gone, we'll all have to take turns manning the boxes

Zed Lopez@nasamuffin A city slicker walking in the country saw a farmer under an apple tree holding a pig up so it could eat an apple. When the pig was done, they moved on to another. The viewer called out "Wouldn't it be faster to just knock some off the tree and let the pig eat 'em off the ground?"
The farmer looked at them quizzically. "What is "time* to a **pig**?"
Kevin Karhan 
@nasamuffin someone got a nice job ...
Graham Sutherland / Polynomial@nasamuffin at Sumida aquarium in Tokyo they built a little platform in the penguin enclosure, attached to the transparent barriers around the edge, because one of the penguins likes to get right up close to everyone and show off.

At the rate Antarctica is falling apart, I think we should all consider making room for penguins in our homes.

Dr. Dan Killam@nasamuffin like a cat surfing on the roomba

Steve Popovich@nasamuffin the penguin version of a cat riding a Roomba; but the penguin has a human giving them a ride, instead of a robot.
