And why did penguins evolve to not be able to fly?
You'd have thought they'd want to keep their bums off the ice for as long as possible.

Ah, but is that to encourage them to spend more time in the water
so they'll catch more fish?

Have you never seen March of the Penguins?
Surely it would be better to fly to the breeding grounds?

I have not seen March of the Penguins.
But I can see the sense in being able to fly in circumstances like that. Hey, ducks could do it, and they reproduce by gang rape, so why not a species that otherwise has to march across a huge tract of snow and ice?

Those fucking female ducks are asking for it.

I sometimes wonder why there are snails AND slugs
you think it's because they just want to move house?
or maybe it's a divorce and the slugs have been kicked out of the house, aw man that's so sad

Slugs are the tramps of the snail world.

I think they prefer to think of themselves as "bohemian"

I never see any cardboard signs.
I'd give them money!

Don't give them money.
They'd only fritter it away on.......whatever slugs get pissed on.

what did the slug say to the snail?
Big Issue?

Did you just make that up?

( girlinthehole, Wed 23 Mar 2011, 15:43, Reply)

no
but I was messing around with a snail the other day. I took the shell off to see if it would go faster. It just made it a bit sluggish.

I never thought I'd consider telling you to leave the internet.

to put that into perspective
that is the best and funniest joke that my drummer has ever said.

His puns would make Jeff's comedy shine like a beacon of excellence in comparison.

You should destroy him
and get one of these:

the trouble is
he's a really good drummer, guitarist and pianist, and if I destroy him his wife may stop cooking me really fucking good food.
