I spend a lot of time with my male friends at their bachalor pad. To describe it quickly: it’s a dude flat, that looks like dude and most of the time smells like dude. Anyway besides the beer, they have a penguin in their fridge!
After screeching to hit the impossible notes of Lacuna coil’s Swamped in our virtual band on Rockband on PS3, I walked towards the fridge to get myself some water. I was stopped in shock to hear one of them shout out ‘oh yeah dont mind the penguin in the fridge’. Hehe I laughed ‘yer right’ I said, whilst thinking to myself mmm its not the first time I have found the most random shit in the guys fridge… This thought made me jolt, I was now hesitating to open the fridge door… ‘The what?’, I screamed back. ‘Ahe, we have a penguin in our fridge, dont mind it’… Slowly I started imagining dead penguin, filleted penguin, what colour would it be? Would it look like salmon or tuna or squid? As my mind went deeper and deeper on this sick imaginary trip of visualising the shapes and colours of dead penguins… I had unconsciously moved away from the fridge. Now thinking the glass of water wasnt really that important and in totaly empathy with penguins…. my mind now thinking ‘poor penguins, they are so cute, I was obviously thinking of the dancing kind I had seen in the animated movie ‘Happy Feet’. I was frowning at the guys and at their fridge.. I knew one of them was a chef but seriously PENGUIN… wasn’t my baked chicken dish enough for them anymore?
I couldnt help myself I simply had to ask…’Really you have a penguin in your fridge?… but how did you get a penguin in Malta and why is it in your fridge?…. and how cruel’
‘How cruel? Where else would you keep a penguin its not cruel at all.. its the best place for her… she is on the top shelf’. One of my friends replied. By this time totally confused… ok so penguin isnt on the menu and they are taking the piss, that said I was still sure there was a penguin in their fridge, they wouldnt lie like that! So I took the plunge and opened the door to find a tiny toy plastic penguin wearing a sun hat and holding a cocktail glass on the top shelf of their fridge… the whole shelf was dedicated to this damn toy they’d found in a kinder surprise egg.
I have to give it to them when it comes to placement of objects… I asked why they’d put it in the fridge the answer was simple.. penguins belong in the cold… I cant wait to see where they put the rest of the kinder Surprise collection toys!
