Not sure if this is the right category.

Video - Breaking News Videos from CNN.com (http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/us/2009/07/16/bush.gay.penguins.kron)

Here is a news video about a gay couple of penguins. They even raised a baby, together after being given an egg by the zoo people. After six years, their next door neighbor lost her mate and one of the penguins went straight. He moved out of his home with his former partner and in with "Linda." They had babies. One day, the gay penguin who was left went over there and they threatened him with violence.

It is not clear if there was an intervention, a religious conversion or if Linda was just super hot. For a penguin.

You can't make this stuff up.

Wouldn't that penguin be bisexual then?

That could be it! Perhaps the two timer was bisexual. By all accounts, the left behind penguin appears to just be gay but we can't know that based on this record although the evidence suggests that he is.

Haha, those sneaky birds. I wonder if penguins form monogamous relationships in nature?

I read that they are monogamous for the season (which includes raising the babies) but frequently switch to a different partner during the next mating season.

They're the most sharply-dressed birds there are... They're wearing tuxedos. Totally gay.

Hahahaha!!

Back in the days before political correctness, husband used to have to give trainings as part of his job. When it came time to introduce himself, he would point to his flaming red hair that had a complete mind of its own and comment that they could tell he was straight because no gay man would be caught dead with that fright wig.

Yeah, those days are gone.

Er, no. Bald would have been un-noteworthy. He could stop traffic with that blinding red hair.

LOL exactly!!!
She walked in she wagged her head, and poor Jon just said she's just been under so much stress she is appreciative, she just can't verbalized it.
The whole time I was thinking, what a b*tch.
She found fault with the decor, the paint colors. you named it she found something wrong, like...why wasnt the house built larger, why wasnt the patio larger,why didnt they include a outdoor kitchen.
I knew that moment if he had any sense, he would run and let her have the damn house just give him his freedom.
I pitied him.
