Yes, Platypi are ridiculous-looking with their beaver tails, duck bills, and webbed feet. But just think how you must look to them, you hairless bipedal! Let's see you swim along a river bottom for twelve hours a day. Or lay eggs even though you're a mammal.Or inject venom into your victims from spurs in the backs of your ankles. That's right, 'cause you can't! Only a cute, cuddly...ridiculous-looking Platypus can do that.
