Well, can you eat a whole seal?

 

Neither can a geopard do this. Comparisons between animals are pretty useless, especially when you don't even tell what features you compare. Animals are adapated to their environment, so saying that an eagle is better then a whale, because a whale can not see a mouse from 3 kilometers up in the air, then first show me a whale who is travelling 3 kilometers in the air before I grant you that you are right. ;)

I think it might be an example of what we call "humour"

I guess the canned audience laughing wasn't enough to give that away

Loose BOWELS are the first sign of THE CHOLERA MORBUS!

The reason I said @oDDity was because a while back he was stating that humans are the ultimate creature, etc etc, so I thought I could use that debate as a pretext for posting the link. Also the style of this clip reminded me of things oDDity might say... "Penguins mate for life. You probably don't even have a girlfriend or a boyfriend. Penguins are happier than you. And they're better than you."

 

The intent of posting this isn't to start another animal comparison argument. I just thought it was a funny video.

I guess viewing it at work without any sound probably wasn't the best way to appreciate the humour, I'll admit.

 

Still, some of those definitions of "better" are rather tenuous. I certainly don't want to live 250 years, I've never felt any inclination to eat a seal, and with no boyfriend or girlfriend my penis-size-to-body-ratio is of little material significance.

 

It would be cool to be able to run like a cheetah though.

Yeah, be sure to check your post for any weird character combinations. This server's Apache doesn't seem to like this...

      I posted about it before, but I think the default tdm logo video looks outdated. For a (i.m.o.) better looking version, you can download the pk4 attached to this post and plonk it in your tdm root folder. Every mission that starts with the tdm logo then starts with the better looking one. Try for example mission COS1 Pearls and Swine.

      I finished DOOM - The Dark Ages the other day. It is a decent shooter, but not as great as its predecessors, especially because of the soundtrack.
