wintermute: People should give me money.
TOM: Why? So that you could give it to me?
wintermute: No, so that I could buy a penguin.
TOM: Just go steal one.
TOM: There's only a bazillion of them down in Antarctica.
wintermute: Yeah, but not many in London.
wintermute: And it would cost me more to get to penguinland than to buy one.
wintermute: And if I buy three, I even get free shipping.
TOM: Rob a bank.
TOM: Then you even go to jail, and everybody wins.
wintermute: Except me. And my many fans.
TOM: No, they'd win because they could come visit you any time ('though their existence is still doubtful). And you win cause you get penguins.
Rivikah has entered.
wintermute: Rivi!
Rivikah: anything interesting going on?
wintermute: TOM: Only if I robbed a penguin bank. And I don't know of any of those nearby.
wintermute: And I'm sure that they wouldn't let me keep the penguins in jail, anyway.
TOM: Rivikah!
TOM: wm: You just have to sneak them in.
wintermute: TOM: Baked into a cake, you mean?
TOM: Uh....sure.
wintermute: Don't you think people might notice?
wintermute: And where would I get penguin food from?
TOM: Cakes.
wintermute: fish cakes?
TOM: Yeah.
TOM: Nobody would steal them off you, either.
wintermute: They might.
Rivikah: er...
Rivikah: I like fish.
wintermute: If they'd also smuggled in penguins.
wintermute: Or dolphins.
Rivikah: or were hungry
Rivikah: or just mean.
TOM: Riv: Jail people don't like fish.
TOM: wm: Now that could be a problem.
TOM: You'll have to have penguin deathmatches, or something.
Rivikah: ...or something.
[RinkChat] The chat room's topic has been changed to 'Penguin deathmatch!' by wintermute.
Nyperold: ...
TOM: You'd probably have to smuggle in a refridgerator to keep the penguin in, too.
TOM: That'd be a pretty big cake.
wintermute: Nah, I'd just shave it bald.
Rivikah: errr....
TOM: Oh, okay.
TOM: I wonder what color penguins are underneath.
TOM: Polar bears have black skin, they say.
Rivikah: black I bet.
wintermute: Pink, I'd guess.
wintermute: You'd think information like that would be on the Interweb, wouldn't you?
TOM: Yeah. You would.
TOM: I can find the color patterns for the feathers on all 17 species of penguin. But not a thing on skin color.
James has entered.
TOM: James!
wintermute: JIM!
James: erf. Hihi.
James: My black dog is pink/white underneath. We shaved him once.
nomie has left.
Rivikah: really
James: Amazing, no?
Rivikah: aug. when we had a black dog it was black underneath
* James is trying to wake up.
TOM: I thought all dogs were pinkish underneath.
Rivikah: my black dog was black underneath. all of your dogs are deformed
James: TOM: They'r all pinkish if you go underneath deep enough.
TOM: LOL
TOM: I mean.
TOM: That's terrible!
James: :D
Rivikah: try ew. ew is the correct response
James: I want to shave my dog and take pictures, now.
James: Just to prove you wrong.
James: And to laugh and laugh.
wintermute: Shave a penguin and take pictures, instead.
James: Penguins are too dangerous.
Rivikah: you shave the wrong dog and that's dangerous too
James: They have sharp teeth and claws.
Rivikah: exactly
wintermute: James: You're thinking of bears again, aren't you?
Rivikah: also they sometimes have owners
TOM: Penguins have owners?
Rivikah: um...some of them....
wintermute: TOM: Sure. The penguin bank, for one.
James: winter: What about the time I got between a penguin and her baby, and it charged?
wintermute: James: Was the baby small, white and spherical?
James: Nearly took my head off with one swipe of its might paw, it did.
James: No, it was brown, fuzzy, and somewhat ursine in shape.
wintermute: Ah, well, that's a good clue that it wasn't an actual penguin.
James: Pfft.
James: You're mad.
wintermute: That's what they said when I tried to build that motorbike for gorrilas.
wintermute: But I showed them!
James: The gorillas?
wintermute: No, the laughers.
wintermute: The only place I went wrong was making it out of delicious bananas.
wintermute: Who'd have thought gorillas ate those?
James: And cream cheese, yes?
James: Gorillas love cream cheese.
TOM: You should've made it out of penguins.
James: And kittens.
wintermute: Did you see the blueprints?
wintermute: TOM: No, they can't get the wrappers off those...
James: winter: Not if I'm going to get in trouble for it.
TOM: wm: That's the part where you come in.
wintermute: I come in through the door.
TOM: Well, duh.
James: Or occasionally the window.
Rabbitlord: HELLO.
TOM: BUNNYBOY
wintermute: No, I reserve the window for dramatic exits.
Rabbitlord: TOMMYPERSON
* TOM wonders what color rabbits are underneath...
