<div class="IPBDescription">the clash of the somethings</div> wow, kiwi versus the platypus.
which is funnier? which one would you rather keep for a pet?
hopefully we can figure some of these things out.
First off what the hell is a kiwi? isn't that a fruit?
Well yeah it is a fruit but it's also a bird(a kiwi <a href='http://www.bestwestern.co.nz/images/kiwi.jpg' target='_blank'> <a href='http://www.bestwestern.co.nz/images/kiwi.jpg' target='_blank'>http://www.bestwestern.co.nz/images/kiwi.jpg</a> </a>), the national bird of new zealand no less. they are small with hair like feathers and wings that you can't really detect. they basicly look like brown shmoos with beaks.(a shmoo <a href='http://www.lil-abner.com/shmooalb.html' target='_blank'>http://www.lil-abner.com/shmooalb.html</a>). kiwi's like to hide a lot and stand over their one big egg. they seem to have wiskers, can you see them too?
Next is a platypus, we all know what these things are(just in case <a href='http://www.gospelcom.net/watkins/platypus.jpg' target='_blank'>http://www.gospelcom.net/watkins/platypus.jpg</a>). Now you can't tell me that the platypus isn't completly insane, it's like a beaver duck. These guys are just insane, poisonous, born from eggs with fur, build in radar, ear lids(WTH?). it may be a bit too over the top.
Now let's see what you have to say. I like the subtle kiwi as my favorite of the two, but it's not to say that i don't like them both.

Btw, uber_tweed, I really think you should put a space between the urls and the brackets.
i prefer an elephant tbh
platyuses are the only mammals to lay eggs, but kiwi's just look so damn cool
the platypus has poisonous spike on it's feet, but it can swim pretty damn fast...
man, It's a tie in my book
There is not one scrap of contest.
Kiwi lays eggs that are bigger than the bird itself, but platypus is an egg-laying mammal, which in itself is a true rarity although I know of atleast one other critter that also does so, even though the said critter has been extinct for atleast 100 million years.
I'd have to go with the platypus, since it is a living fossil. Does anyone know why they have a clawed back toe that's poisonous? Do they use it for anything?
secondly.. kiwi!
/me points to the edit button
Remove the brackets and have a nice day.
btw:
Australia > New Zealand
Platapus > Kiwi
kthxbi
I obviously don't use forums much. . . at all.

It's 'platypi', I believe.
and god, why does everyone forget about the spiked-anteater/echidna?! That's a mammal and it lays eggs!
Both the echidna and the platypus come from Austrailia. I am smart. I have said something intelligent. Now I will dunk my head in chocolate syrup.
Can they swim?
you know !8 is part of chanserv....
