Vice President JD Vance has been ordered “to work to eliminate improper, divisive, or anti-American ideology from the Smithsonian and its museums, education and research centers, and the National Zoo.”
The order is not explicit, but it is likely that one of the improper things that Vance will root out at the National Zoo will be any same-sex penguin couples. Both male and female penguins have coupled to raise chicks. In one case, a male pair stole eggs from a female pair. But that was at a Dutch Zoo. In Spain, Electra and Viola have raised chicks together.
For anyone that would like to play it:
I am disappointed it isn’t "Tekeli-li "
You nearly owed me a Coke. But the commentary saved you. Nice one.
Ahem …
A penguin is driving his when he notices that the check engine light is on. He gets out to look and sees oil dripping out of the motor.
He drives to the nearest town and stops at the first auto shop.
After dropping the car off, the penguin goes for a walk.
He sees an ice cream shop and decides that something cold would really hit the spot, so he gets a big dish of ice cream and sits down to eat.
Having no hands, he makes a real mess trying to eat it.
After finishing his ice cream, he goes back to the gas station and asks the mechanic if he’s found the problem.
The mechanic looks up and says “It looks like you blew a seal.”
“No, no,” the penguin replies, “It’s just vanilla ice cream.”
Sorry; not sorry.
As a well-known af-fish-ionado of this sort of thing, I’m hooked. It’s brill-iant!
(And thanks for introducing me to it.)
That’s one of my favorites from Dr. Demento.
