Non-Famous Twitter Illustrations #2- Platypus Monocle

at
Now, I know I said that the purpose of NFTI is to illustrate bland posts, but this one was too good and entertaining not to illustrate. And after searching for 'platypus' and finding this, I asked the tweeter if it was original. He assured me it was and let me know that he had posted a list of other scenarios I could illustrate as well, and I might just take him up on it.

Here, from Hunter (@hsqrdcreative) :

"Ok, I get what you're saying but, what if...the platypus had a monocle? Eh?"

    What do you call a pair of platypus? And does this one have an astigmatism?

    Cheers...

    If the platypus has a monocle, then he'd be poisonous and poor vision in one eye. He'd be the classiest animal to ever be dreamed up while high.

    Poor guy can't even reach his eye with those little flippers. What if someone's playing a mean joke on him and he can see just fine? He could get a headache.

    I've had trouble finding blogs that entertain me but yours certainly does. I'm a fan.

    Oh, and while I am here stinkin' up the comments, thank you, everyone else for amusing me with your comments. And... some replies.

    @Anonymouse- Clearly, in his pocket.

    @Amanda- there is a surprise amount of references to Perry on twitter, regarding platypuses.

    @Phil Platypuses, or platypode... or Jim and Everett. And I don't rightly know.

    @Kim- You clearly didn't see the rest of the list. ;)

    @Trez, notice the chain he is holding under his flippery paw/armpit. Fear not!

    @FRKMNSTR Thank you! There are 5 months worth of posts for your further amusement!

    @DJ Ain't that the truth! I really ought to be hired to make weird website mascots!

    I would dearly love to see a platypus with a monocle. It would probably make my day. Possibly my life.

    What's to say about the Elephant with the earpiece? Oh bother, the animal kingdom is taking over. *sigh

    If the platypus had a monocle, I think he also ought to have a cane and top hat, a la Planter's Peanut guy. I mean, you can't go half-way with class. Balls to the wall, Mr. Classy-pus!

    I think he'd see better, but how's it go when he's swimming, those webbed feet aren't for tap dancing?
