ksl.com has a story about a vending machine in Argentina that gives out free chocolate if a human chain can be formed between the machine and a cow statue several feet away.

[link]

Most of the story is about people's hesitance to hold hand with strangers even for goodies. But the first comment amused me:

"I would hold hands with a rabid badger for chocolate."

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

I really want a whale

I linked to a picture of a whale way better than any I could ever draw! And no, I'm not going back for the link.

A stag could be really cool

I started there, but ended up with bison.

Some of these framings I can see, some are beyond me. The penguins are still cracking me up.
