    You forgot the mascot of the operating system Linux.

    • dotfloat says:

      People should be ripped to pieces for forgetting Tux.

    • Anonymiss says:

      I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

      Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

      There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

      • tare says:

        Wrong. “Linux” is a generic term used to refer to a wide range of operating systems based on the Linux kernel, not just GNU/Linux (e.g. OpenWRT is also a Linux operating system).

        Tux the Penguin is a mascot of the kernel itself though.

      • will says:

        meh Stallman kid =/

      • Nicad says:

        Maybe Gnu would enter the lexicon more often if they actually finished the HURD. The only reason it is GNU/Linux is because GNU does not have a functioning kernel. If you follow the line if thinking that you are, the OS I am using should be used GNU/Linux/X/QT/GTK/

  2. bodo says:

    …and in other really cold places like San Francisco…

  3. dethduck says:

    Many will not survive.

  4. Fife says:

    You forgot pittsburgh

  5. Ferdbags says:

    There are plenty in zoos around the world I imagine.

  6. sam-the-man says:

    You also forgot the biscuit tin.

  7. Llama says:

    For the record, you won’t actually find many penguins in Antarctica. Most species of penguins live further north in warmer areas. There’s even penguins on the equators in the Galapagos Islands. And yes, well the Pittsburgh Zoo. . . and many other zoos. Also the Pittsburgh Aviary has penguins! We get double the penguins!

    • boaks says:

      …I believe the Pittsburgh comment was referring to the hockey team…but you are correct as well…

    • dardub says:

      They’re also found in South America and Southern Africa.

      I don’t get why this graph is funny anyway. I could basically say the same for any animal. Dogs are found in — Movies, Every city on earth, Toy Stores, Korean BBQ.

    • shrloc says:

      Um, sorry to disagree with you but… I just returned from Antarctica and there are penguines EVERYWHERE. I came across a lease four differnent species.

  8. TB Tabby says:

    They’re in South America too.

  9. hmph says:

    Also in displays with Santa Claus even though he is supposed to be from the Arctic (NORTH Pole) (NOT Antarctica/ SOUTH Pole).

  10. DDave says:

    You forgot on (top of) the television set!

  11. I like squirrels says:

    And you’ll find them in the North Pole, duh.

  12. Bill L. says:

    They’re also conveniently located in Gotham City.

    (Not the North Pole, though – too many bumbles)

  13. Mike Warren says:

    Youngstown State University (Ohio) mascot is the penguin. I have no idea why.

  14. Mel says:

    You forgot Australia, there’s plenty of penguins in Melbourne

  15. Alin says:

    Where is the funny? How did this get on the front page? Where am I? Who are you people?

    • thestashattacked says:

      You’re in Oz, and if you tap your heels together three times and say “there’s no place like GraphJam” over and over, you’ll find yourself there!

  16. Crippler says:

    Pittsburgh too

  17. LinuxFanBoi says:

    Tux the penguin rocks.

  18. Reader says:

    I read a Pengiun once or was it a Puffin.

  19. your face says:

    why not on the helipad???

  20. Toby M. Nyphot says:

    On top of your television, of course…. and since it’s just after eight o’clock, it’s time for the penguin on top of your television set to explode.
