No you're wrong, read past the first page on that.
Penguin = Evil
Piranha = Fish
Ok... I'm going to dip down a little bit for a common ground here...
Yes. Piranhas CAN KILL PENGUINS.
However... Gerbils "can" kill people, the afghani's with sling shots "can" kill US Special Forces troops.
It's not going to happen much... but it "can" happen. But penguins WILL win the war. It's kinda like.... that.

Er, the afghani's have recently upgraded their stones to carry explosive warheads.
Course, not one's been thrown yet, but it's provided quite a nice amount of income for certain businesses in the US
And Huck has a good point with the entire Evil thing
Remember well the rabbit in Quest For the Holy Grail

I dissagree with your evil analogy. Piranhas eat their victems (penguins), which are by the way usually many times the piranhas actual size, from the inside out, tunneling in through the belly and then eating its way out again. Penguins on the other hand have to chase down small fish, prefering to kill instantly and spare the helpless victem from pain. Also, Piranhas have extensive knowlege of stormtrooper tactics, as they prefer to attack in groups, instead of the penguin's suicidal solo attack. You could go so far to say that piranhas invented the stormtrooper long before the germans did...

How can you call the Penguins attack-style suicidal. It goes after fishes that can in no way kill it. So what in bloody-tampon soaked hell does it have to attack them in groups anyway.

It's plainly obvious that penguins would win.... If all else failed, the could simply push the smaller, weaker, less combat able penguins into the water (as they have been known to do), until the piranhas fill up. Then the millions (yes, millions) of penguins would have an easy time cleaning them up.

Both of you are mistaken. Although penguins may do fine hunting alone, as soon as they get into combat, they will be decimated. The whole solo tactic only works when the target can't defend itself.
About the penguins shoving smaller penguins in as human shields...once the piranhas get full, they will just start ripping chunks off penguins. They don't need to swallow what they bite...
According to both of those arguments, Penguins are completely unsuited for the horrors of total war. Penguins seem to have the impression that war with piranhas will be identical to catching some small defenceless fish for dinner. They will be completely unprepaired for the onslaught Piranhas will unleash.

Penguins only look unprepared. It's a deception. They wouldn't show off their piranha-fighting strategies before the piranhas got to the antarctic.

I believe it is a double deception. Penguins don't look prepaired because they wan't us to think that they're faking it, but really they're bluffing because they really aren't prepaired.

No, they actually know how to kill piranhas very good, but they're pretending that they don't so you don't think they do, but you think they don't which is in fact they are pretending that you don't the whole time while in fact they do know how to kill piranhas very very quickly, but you don't think that because the penguins pretend they don't know so you think they don't know when in fact they know.
Do you know?

As far as the question of territory, piranha don't have most of the world. I believe they only live in the most tropical waters near the equator. So they have far less territory than penguins.
They also don't know to hide their awesome powers, instead publicizing them in hopes of frightening away their penguin foes.

Of course the Penguins can take the Piranhas down. But if they publicize they're amazing attack prowess then the governments around the world will realize what a threat they present. So by looking dumb and helpless, they actually hold all world leaders balls in their hands.

hmm... so the penguins keep themselves from destroying the piranhas, to keep the world from discovering their true evil powers. Kinda like, why we don't just nuke the hell out of every middleeastern country.

Yeah, except normally middle eastern countries don't have teeth a quarter of the height of their body and can't move faster than a penguin...

Piranhas have more teeth than brain. They are more like... some sort of lethal virus, like ebola, it's nice around the equator, killing hut dwelling natives... but trying to organize a piranha army.... or having them survive in the cold... no. The penguins will just use their penguin space station, to block the sun, and freeze the entire world. That's how the ice age started, so the penguins could slide on ice all over the world, but... thanks to one drunken penguin, in a drunken stuppor... I'd rather not get into that.  |
