You know what I don’t get? Platypuses…or is it platapi or perhaps platypay?

What the hell is up with this animal? It really is the most bizarre freaking thing I have ever seen. Have you ever assembled something? Anything at all..a desk, a playschool playhouse, a swing-set a 20 story tall industrial crane..you ALWAYS have pieces left over. Its an inevitable occurrence, heck I’m still trying to find a home for the 2 bolts left over from my recent brake job.

That is what a platypus is. It is the left over pieces of about 4 other species of animal, pieces apparently no one thought they would need (I know of one duck in a nearby pond that would beg to differ..if he could talk). This creepy abomination of beaver-dom serves no purpose that I can think of, except providing a unique super-spy character in Phineas & Pherb. I really would like someone to explain the point of this furry billed oddity.
