There are only three posts on the front page. Time for a plush monkey with an appropriate caption already attached:
No, not one of those plush monkeys. Thank God they didn't have any monkeys. The shipping charges alone would've broken me.
Posted by yhbc at May 28, 2002 11:56 PMWoo-hoo! I'm messin' with the coding and I don't know what the heck I'm doing!
ah - sorry.
Posted by: yhbc on May 29, 2002 12:03 AMAnd how can that place not have any hugely endowed monkeys? It's an outrage!
I mean, monkeys are whacking it constantly. Maybe they couldn't get one to lay off long enough to model for them.
I picture some poor National Geographic intern chasing a gorilla around with a plaster caster set.
Posted by: kafkaesque on May 29, 2002 01:09 AMI can't tell you how many times I've successfully used that line on women: "Hug me, I chatter". No, really I can't.
Also, I vote that from this moment forward absolutely no object in this world may be described as "plush". Except maybe Dom DeLuise (of course).

Posted by: eyeballkid on May 29, 2002 02:52 PMAn old girlfriend of mine had an aunt who had a pet monkey. It's true: the damned thing would spank his...monkey...all day. Made a mess everywhere.
Posted by: adampsyche on May 29, 2002 04:33 PMForgive me if this is a repost, but has the Joe Cartoon "Look at my monkey" made it up here yet?
Posted by: adampsyche on May 29, 2002 04:40 PMOne of my in-law type relatives has a monkey too. Their whole garage is the thing's cage. It wears diapers.
It also holds the entire family under the sway of its evil monkey mind.
Posted by: kafkaesque on May 29, 2002 05:13 PMAs I sat in the Ft. Lauderdale airport on Sunday--in the midst of my 5-hour wait--I turned to my brother and said:
"Y'know what would make waiting *so* much more tolerable? If they had monkeys--that you could, like, rent for an hour or two."
He got a twinkle in his eye. "That would be great!" he said. They could line them up against the wall and you could choose one you liked. Like a Mexican brothel!"
I've never confessed to him my love for lower primates, and I don't think he's ever seen this site.
It must be in our genes...

I've heard of the "donkey show." Is this the same kind of thing?
Posted by: eyeballkid on May 29, 2002 05:47 PMA note about posting images:
We encourage users to post images, especially those hilarous pics of monkeys
wearing dresses or programming for Linux. But posting images that reside on someone
else's server is considered by many to be bandwidth theft. Our thoughts
on the matter, along with some solutions to the problem, can be found
here. Thanks.
