When it comes to penguins,

00:01

there are a few black and white rules.

00:03

See what I did there?

00:05

Black and white rules.

00:05

They enjoy formal wear.

00:07

They look funny when they walk.

00:08

If animated movies are to be believed

00:10

They enjoy tap dancing and surfing

00:13

And they come from the coldest place on Earth.

00:16

But the thing is, the only  black and white rule in nature

00:19

is that there are no black and white rules.

00:22

Obviously, penguins don’t  actually enjoy formal wear,

00:26

Or surfing or tap dancing

00:28

and funny walking is in the eye of the beholder.

00:31

Also, penguins aren’t originally  from the coldest place on Earth.
