Time for a laugh

We haven't had a cartoon thread for a while, so here are a couple I've seen lately.

And it's worth looking at the old threads for a laugh - I had forgotten so many!

Not a cartoon, and a bit of a read, but I hope worth it.

Have you ever stopped to wonder why you never actually see a dead penguin lying around on the ice in Antarctica? They must die somewhere, but where?
It turns out there's a perfectly good explanation β€” one that scientists have studied for years. Penguins, it is well established, are among the most ritualistic creatures on the planet. They mate for life, maintain deep and lasting bonds with their young, and live in highly organized communities with their own customs and traditions.
When a penguin passes away out on the ice, the remaining family members and close companions gather together. Using only their beaks and their small, stubby wings, they carefully dig a hole in the frozen ground, gently roll their departed companion in, and cover it back over.
Then the male penguins form a respectful circle around the grave, bow their heads, and sing together:

'Freeze a jolly good fellow... Freeze a jolly good fellow...'

(You didn't honestly think I knew anything about penguins, did you?)

A Viking joke!

There’s a bit of inter service rivalry in our family. I sent this little dig to DS!
