I've seen honest faces before. They usually come attached to liars.

I also forgot to take a fork to work to eat food. I also also forgot other stuff. Like my name.

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

well, once you take emperor out of the mix, I'm adrift.

That's what I was thinking....

People really need to have more than one favorite penguin species.

Mine would be Gentoo. Or else those penguins with the weird colored feathers sticking out of their heads.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I think rockhoppers are the ones with the feathers sticking out of their heads. Like Robin Williams in Happy Feet.

In reality, I'm not that into antarctic fauna.

I prefer polar bears.

OK, I think I'm thinking of the Royal penguin. Except this concerns me:

There is some controversy over whether Royal penguins are a sub-species of Macaroni penguins. Individuals of the two groups have been known to interbreed, though this is a relatively rare occurrence. Indeed, other penguins have been known to form mixed-species pairs in the wild.

HA! My new school email account blocks everything as spam but doesn't tell me that it has. It bounces it to the sender without ever notifying me that someone attempted to mail me.

Sometimes, I think my school is all fucked up.

If you could be any species of penguin, which would you be?

Fairy penguin? That's a kind right?

Otherwise...Opus.

MACARONI PENGUIN. That's my favorite just based on the pasta reference.

Or that.

As their name suggests, they spend their time hopping over rocks, and the explorers who discovered them were amused to see the penguins jumping all over the place.

OK.

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

Galapagos penguin, definitely, or one of the Australian ones, since they live where it is not cold.
