I thought the picture was as funny as, if not funnier, than the headline.

The penguins in the picture look more like king penguins than emperor penguins. Still, all penguins are great.

I'm sure the penguins will need lots of therapy after seeing their penguin lord dig its wings into its own neck and rip its head off.

/anyone still watch UCB?

Sure, they look cute now, but penguins are notoriously violent.

One molested my mother once.

We don't like to talk about it really.

Going through Google, looks like April 1st is 'celebrated' in pretty much every region, even if not every country in each.

" As the cameras rolled, the real penguins rose their beaks and gazed up at the purported Lord -- but then walked away disinterested when he took off his penguin face to reveal himself to be zoo director Teruyuki Komiya."

The moral of the story here is, never ever remove your fake head.

(Penguin on tv)

Pepperpot 1 "where did it come from?"
Pepperpot 2 "the zoo"
pp1 "No, it didn't. It would have "Property of the Zoo" stamped on it"
pp2 "They don't do that. How you you stamp a huge lion?"
pp1 "They stamp them when they're small"

Cute.

It would have REALLY been funny, though, if all the penguins went nuts and kicked his ass.
