People have said these things about that :

Welcome, Evanizer, to the Monkeys' Ball. Someone fetch this man a cocktail.

A more mellifluous enterance, we've never had.

And, for the second time in two days, may I say: MONKEY PENIS!!!!!!!

He's a sophisticated monkey, too..you can tell by his walking stick...where's his top hat and monocle?

BTW, welcome to the monkey house, here's your complimentary lump of poop..

That monkey's hung like a hamster. I bet the other monkeys made fun of him in the locker room and he ran off in shame but slipped on a bar of soap that another monkey had carelessly left lying on the tile floor, which caused him to fall awkwardly and sprain a knee (just a sprain, nothing so bad as to require a cast or a splint), and that's why he has to walk with a cane.

Some childhood trauma you want to share with us, Crash?

By far one of the ugliest pictures I've ever seen.

Posted by: Spunky on July 23, 2002 11:58 PM

Uh, did I say something? I was researching fugue states, and the next thing I knew I was lying on the floor, naked, with a jalapeno popper in my navel.

Quick, get the salsa con queso and the tortilla before he gets up...

Welcome, Evanizer, to the Monkeys' Ball

I don't see no balls. You see balls? Looks like just a little ol' monkey dick to me ...

Welcome, Evanizer! The place feels classier already.

Hey! Welcome Evan. And gee, you even brought us a penis. You're so cool. ;) (Well, it's like a penis...but...different...and I'm with Crash, this would get the poor thing jeered by much of the jungle...poor little thing.) But the cane and the slightly hungover sardonic look...tre priceless.

Howdy, mr izer. Thanks for the dick.

Posted by: Marquis on July 24, 2002 12:17 AM

I am usually not greeted by newcomers by their shoving monkey bits in my face, but what the hell.

Hey.

Steve buscemi really needs to shave every single day with no exceptions.
Also, welcome evanizer.

Perhaps the four-balled monkey from the previous thread could lend this sophisticated fellow a couple of testicular appendages?

Posted by: stavrosthewonderchicken on July 24, 2002 02:21 AM

I mean the chimp, not evanizer. Just wanted to be clear on that.

Hey Evan!

Posted by: stavrosthewonderchicken on July 24, 2002 02:21 AM

*looking around, balancing the cocktail tray*

Evan? Where is Evan? A big welcome, Evan! Evan?

*sits down and consumes all the drinks*

Posted by: Miguel on July 24, 2002 05:56 AM

Ha! Great first post!

And yes, that monkey looks just like Steve Buscemi. Especially in Ghost World.

If you think this monkey is bad, you should see the Pygmy...

*shudder*

Hail and well met, everyone, I delight in your kind salutations. What a pleasure it is to idly sip madeira and delight in the strange and wond'rous forms of the ape and the monkey, as depicted so astutely and delicately in the array of pictures set about this salon! Mine own tendency to speak ill of such folly must needs fall silent when I witness the jollity upon the countenances assembled herein.

I shall endeavour to find other such parchments and engravings among the divers and sundrie volumes in my library, and to share them for the continued delight and amusement of the company.

Again, your salutations and compliments are received by my person with the highest and most sincere gratitude.

-Mr. E. Izer, Esq.

My dear Mr. Izer

It is with soaring spirit that I dispatch this missive. How delightful to find you sipping the madeira in the salon! My compatriots and I are aware of your misgivings vis-a-vis the diminutive hairy creatures who dwell herein, but we are at pains to reassure you that both Mr Cardoso and Mr McNally have had their distemper inoculations within the last fortnight, and therefore shall not trouble you. Mr Chef, of course, we cannot speak for.

In closing, please take note that these proceedings are not only in aid of our primate friends, but indeed have been created for the furtherment of silliness in all its many guises.

yours respectfully

Mr. Esque (ret.)

Helās, Mr Chef is indeed already spoken for.

Why not join in and say something too?

A 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.
