I’ve been to CO 4 times already today and for some reason I got the urge to pop in again. O-M-G! I’m so glad I did. This is priceless!! Who gets this lucky? Lol! I got the belly laugh I needed. Now I’m good for the day.

Look at meeee, maaaa! I’m on the bottom of the world!

6 Hilde 03.14.10 at 4:00 pm

Now you can both squirrelize and blorpify your pictures.

7 Meg 03.14.10 at 4:04 pm

I can’t believe The Sealizzer has not been made into a web site yet. This picture has been up for over 5 minutes, People!

8 Malinki 03.14.10 at 4:10 pm

14 Lerrinus 03.14.10 at 4:23 pm

Too funny! What a cute face! :lol:

15 Kar 03.14.10 at 4:24 pm

A friend went on a cruise to Antartica. Someone had put up a sign, MDP – MORE DAMN PENGUINS. Not to be confused with ABC – Another Bloody Castle/Cathedral.

16 Dona 03.14.10 at 4:25 pm

Oh my gosh! I actually jumped with surprise! LOL!

17 Rapwnzel 03.14.10 at 4:29 pm

I think he’s ready for a penguin Smörgåsbord… >_> I’m just sayin..

18 Melinda 03.14.10 at 4:31 pm

Is this real? ‘Cause if it is- it’s the BEST!!!

19 Trin 03.14.10 at 4:37 pm

…and that GRIN on the seal…wow…

20 DrPluton 03.14.10 at 5:42 pm

I need to set up a digital camera so that that seal shows up like that in every picture I take.

21 Meg 03.14.10 at 5:42 pm

I love the penguin directly above the seal, he looks like he’s heading out for his Sunday stroll…

22 Not That Mike The Other Mike 03.14.10 at 5:43 pm

HAI GAIZE ARR YOO HAVIN A PARTAY?

23 Jimbeaux 03.14.10 at 5:43 pm

He looks so happy! And who wouldn’t be, with all those pengies?

24 Nikki 03.14.10 at 5:47 pm

What a great shot! Nothing like a little Corner Blorp to bring some happy to the photo…

25 Meg 03.14.10 at 5:53 pm

39 victoreia 03.14.10 at 8:42 pm

Meg, love the avatar!

Penguins have boring parties, anyway. (It’s the formal-wear…..)

40 tamibrat 03.14.10 at 8:46 pm

CO WIN (period)

I love that the penguins are all dancing about and the seal is totally in the corner like the Joker from Batman, ecstatically planning his mischief. This is going to make me smile for weeks. Yay for mischief planning.

In fact, we have a room called the Plotter Room at work. Idk, why but its hilarious, and it totally needs this little pic so this seal can show everyone exactly how much fun plotting can really be. I may have to print this out. Since its already my desktop background. ;-)

41 emm ell 03.14.10 at 8:48 pm

omg this is fantastic.

42 stuck in the kl blues again 03.14.10 at 9:17 pm

he looks like the cat who is about to swallow the canary er penguin. lunch and dinner.

43 Selphie le Boffin 03.14.10 at 10:06 pm

I sent this is months ago, but whatevs, still cute now.

44 kittyadventures 03.14.10 at 11:13 pm

46 Lyndse 03.14.10 at 11:30 pm

Is this not a repost?

47 melissadesa 03.14.10 at 11:46 pm

I laughed so much over this!!!

“OHAI!!!! IS THAT A DIGITAL?!?!?!?”

48 Maria 03.15.10 at 12:26 am

this is the cutest, cutest cutest photo ever!!!! is this for real?

49 Rebecca 03.15.10 at 1:16 am

OMG! LOL! I had to cover my mouth, otherwise I would have waken my roommate w laughter!

50 Hon Glad 03.15.10 at 3:20 am

This idea should be given wings and have Sealio appear in all sorts of pictures. Obamma’s speeches, the Popes blessings Fashion show catwalk pictures etc.

51 julia 03.15.10 at 4:11 am

OHH I’m sooo hoping for a sealizer this time!

52 indy1110 03.15.10 at 4:18 am

X-D Sealio is all “SPRING BREAK, WOOHOOOO!”

:-D

53 Alice 03.15.10 at 4:19 am

55 Mika 03.15.10 at 5:32 am

Glad you all liked it, it made me laugh.

56 darkshines 03.15.10 at 6:14 am

He’s all WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SPRING BREAK!!!!

57 Momcat 03.15.10 at 7:01 am

Sooo funny! I love it! And, if anybody hasn’t checked out Meg’s link yet, well, ya jus’ gotta!

58 Heather 03.15.10 at 7:36 am

Funny, last night my husband and I were talking about seals and about sea otters. He has gone diving with them and says that they follow you while you’re down and swim in front of you looking directly into your breathing apparatus. He says it is not that they are trying to be disruptive, although this photo is definitely bombed by the seal, it’s that they are so curious they cannot help themselves…
My husband says what surprised him the most is that they are NOT afraid. At all.

59 Debbie Downer 03.15.10 at 8:11 am

Here’s a link to the original un-cropped photo: http://de.trinixy.ru/pics4/20100212/kotomatrix_44.jpg

[Usually "originals" don't come pre-captioned, you know? - Ed.]

60 laineyg6 03.15.10 at 8:16 am

I wasn’t awake until I scrolled down a tad more. Since I use “awesome” to describe almost everything, I will be a little different today. This post is truly “scrumtulescent”.

61 Suh! 03.15.10 at 8:28 am

HHHEEEYYYY!

62 Rachael 03.15.10 at 8:53 am

I’m ded from the qte. End of story.

63 cheshirekittehkat 03.15.10 at 10:02 am

Re: the original uncropped photo :
Sealio is saying: “O Hai, Mauuum” (IN RUSSIAN……!) :roll:

64 cheesybird 03.15.10 at 10:24 am

T.U.M., cornerblorp is my new favorite word.

65 Jill W 03.15.10 at 10:57 am

Have you heard about that fishaholic seal Lindsey?

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

66 aydno1 03.15.10 at 11:14 am

LOOK MA!!! NO FLIPPERS!!! TOOOOO CUTE :D

67 doggabone 03.15.10 at 11:16 am

Funnily enough, I was certain I’d seen this on CO first. I love this photo, full-frame, cropped whatever.

Apparently it’s fairly common for a <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/01/11/another-seal-photobombs-p_n_418515.html"Seal to stick his nose into a penguin photo.

68 kokobutterbuns 03.15.10 at 11:56 am

animals make the best photobombers!

69 Katrina 03.15.10 at 12:39 pm

I’m going to make a bag of popcorn, this is just so funny it makes me want to mess around looking for other cute animal pictures…like I have the time, but ya know, when the urge strikes….Thank you! I’d love to see this little face in the corner of just about anything! S/he really is smiling! Cornerblorp, indeed!

70 Theadosia 03.15.10 at 1:08 pm

@Hon Glad

I would LOVE to see a picture of the Pope blessing fashion catwalk pictures. And it could happen, given that this current Pope is a bit of a fashionista himself.

71 Paunchie 03.15.10 at 1:09 pm

HAHAHAHAHA!!! That’s just so frickin funneh!!

“fishaholic Lindsay”

78 dukesharp 03.15.10 at 3:33 pm

My friend at work is from the Ukraine and she says this roughly translates as “I’m the one who is always messing up the photos!”

79 Mew mew mew I has a cute 03.15.10 at 4:12 pm

83 Hon Glad 03.16.10 at 1:08 am

Theodosia – I ‘m crap at puctuation, oy vey, so shoot me already 8)

However your version does make me visualise the Pope in drag, say in Lacroix, Lacroix sweety darling, sashaying down the cat walk followed by Obama in a pair of bumsters nipple piercings and a feather boa made of Haddock, followed by Senior Sealio and Madonna in full bag lady get up. Actually I better stop there before I give full vent to my fevered imagination. Walks off wondering how I can fit in Attilla the Hun Archbishop Makarios and Queen Juliana of the Netherlands and of corse there’s Fanny the wonder dog and…….

88 Blue 03.17.10 at 10:32 am

89 Amy 03.17.10 at 1:18 pm

That seal totally knows what he just did. Hilariously cute.

90 clarissajanephotography 03.17.10 at 1:44 pm

By the way, no one told me everyone would be out of the office today!!

92 houndandhandbag 03.17.10 at 6:34 pm

This could be real. There was one in National Geographic involving a ground squirrel who did the exact same thing to a couple of tourists.
But either way too funny !
