    seems to me like the australian government is looking for sympathy votes in the next election, "look what they did for the penguins!"

    same thing as what happened here with the mats and "foot and mouth disease", mats do ****all to prevent the spread of foot and mouth disease, but the government figured the mats should fool a few people into giving them sympathy votes ("oh but they tried their best to contain the disease! look at all the mats they put everywhere"), so they put mats everywhere

    Now why did this end up in Trolls?

    I thought it might be nice to discuss how human beings are being unnaturally civil and humane to our animal friends by outfitting these penguin buddies of ours like this wink.gif ... or the contrast of how inhumane they'd been in the first place to allow such atrocities as oil spillages.

    It was only PARTLY a joke!!!

    Some people are too click happy, gawddamnnit...

    (Why only last week, I transferred myself to Trolls!)

    I like the F*ck with the Fada. How da ya put on Fada's? It will probably make them evolve so that they become reliant and the Jumpers, its a ploy to kill them all......or a few people could just be being nice to them.....

    There's an announcement about that on the Gaeilge board, strangely enough, Tilmitt. Basically you use the AltGr key.

    I think I'm allowed a little "woohoo" without this being kludged back into trolls.
