Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Happy Birthday DX!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Happy Birthday DX.

IOPenguinN, I wish to be considered one of the 'true penguin people.' Is there an application?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

except that (a) my present tagline is still all new and shiny, and (b) I feel honor-bound to defer to the true penguin people and concede it to either billytea or DX.

Tagline nothing. I'm proposing that for the next F2F thread title.

Happy Birthday DX! Have a penguin.

We've tried and failed to have a penguin thread title before. Perhaps some sort of grass-roots campaign will be needed.

Our wings are not tired.

Go Penguin! Choose Penguin!

Happy Birthday DX!

But that was before it was revealed that 2005 is the Year of the Penguin! How can anyone resist?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If penguins are to be the new monkey, go for it.

Happy birthday, DX!

I thought pink was the new monkey?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

It seems wrong that Kat and ita and I are all awake.

Pink is not a fad like the monkey.

Perkins, you are so not wrong.
