THIS IS THE OPEN THREAD

“Quack, quack, quack.

Citizens of Gotham: are you safer now than you were four years ago? Do you feel better knowing a man in a ballerina outfit is climbing up walls with a teenage accomplice trespassing all over private property with no legal repercussions? Or do you want order back on the streets?

My name is Oswald Cobblepot (do NOT call me “Cobb”!), and I am running for mayor of this filthy city. It really is a garbage can, but please know that I say that with love and affection, and with great disdain for Batman. Sure, I’ve been convicted on false charges by fake jurors for things like ‘inappropriate uses of an umbrella’ and ‘borrowing money from the bank with armed assistance.’

All of this corruption has been caused by Commissioner Gordon, who is owned by Batman just because he is too lazy and stupid to do his own job! Seriously. Someone could stink up the streets of Gotham with a fart and he would immediately reach for the Bat-phone. It’s pathetic!

I promise you a stronger Gotham, with free money for all who can prove they voted for me! I’ll even offer a sweepstakes! You could win a trip to my evil layer to have your picture taken with yours truly! Quack, quack, quack!

I’m The Penguin, and I approve this message. Now go vote for me as many times as possible. It’s not like Gordon will stop you.”
