Penguins + News & Information

The world is suddenly a lot cooler

Pingu!

, , ,

Whenever the word penguin is mentioned to me, I immediately think of Pingu. That's not very strange as, well, he is a penguin, but it's impressive that of all the penguins in the world, the little guy's had such an impression on me.

For those of you who do not know Pingu, he is the main character in a Swiss-made animated television program. Although its target audience is children, I think it's fair to say that Pingu can be enjoyed by all. For more information, I recommend taking a look at his wikipedia entry. I also recommend trying to hunt down some of the episodes and watching them for yourself. Youtube is a good place to start, but an excellent example can be found on his Official Site, which also has a whole host of media to download. This includes some great wallpapers, guaranteed to brighten up any desktop!

Hehe. Pingu is cool. But I don't feel like watching it anymore. Unless it's totally hillarious and very childish parodies like this one:

The things they say are texted with Swedish words that sound almost like the words the penguins are saying. I can't translate it all but I can translate one line.

Original:

Får jag bajsa på din fis?



Translation:

Can I poop on your fart?
