I always thought there was something odd about those birds. I mean, really, who runs around in a tux all the time?!

I know you guys want to normalize gay penguin adoption and the gay penguin lifestyle, but I for one want to speak out about this. It's unnatural.

Poo! This was going to be on my follow-up to "It Just Ain't Natural!", to be called "It Just Ain't Unnatural".

That's what I get for trying to be too clever by half! :lol:

I tried to convince the homophobic priest at my school that homosexuality was common in nature and thus couldn't be unnatural. I'd seen the young roosters at home getting amorous with each other, and my lady horse had a big gay crush on another lady horse. He spread a rumour around the school that I was a lesbian.
