Popular Satirical News Blog Cannot Compete With Real News

By Ian C

We have received a ridiculous number of emails from concerned readers regarding our lack of contribution to their daily life. Honestly we want to write satirical news stories to brighten your day and make you shake your head with disbelief until you remember that it is (mostly) all made up, but in the words of someone once, "Truth is stranger than fiction", or "You couldn't make that shit up", and there is no way we can write plausibly fake news stories to compete.

Fake news is indiscernible from real news
While there is more to Slap The Penguin than just making up news stories to amuse and amaze our readers, and sometimes confuse and annoy stupid people who believe anything you tell them, we have chosen to continue our extended break for the continued duration of the internationally recognized worst presidency of anywhere, ever.

I am confident that we will be able to return to our roles of satirical news writers, hopefully sooner rather than later. We have all had some interesting thoughts for an exciting relaunch, with new ideas, as well as putting a fresh layer of polish on some old turds. Each of us have had some new experiences which we want to share with you once someone pays the electricity bill and we can open the STP office again.

For now, we are still able to pay our web hosting fees, so feel free to wander through our archives using the portal to the right. I know some of the images may be missing, some of the formatting may be funky, and the links may be redundant or out of date but nobody has been doing any housekeeping.

Please comment and share your thoughts or feelings, or you can send an email to contact@slapthepenguin.com to let us know that you still love us.

Thanks.
