Now cut that out!

Ok, I don't know about you, but this monkey is sorta freaking me out, man!

I think they just fired her from our office, last week! Something about being arrogant, unconventional, and anti-social, I seem to remember.

Bizarre. I think she works here, though. I'm sure I saw her on her way the cafeteria.

I think I work with her!

I think I just bought an ICE TEA this morning off of her at 7-11.

Just think how well she can fling pooh from a standing position.

Damn! I have a hard enough time getting my legs shaved on a regular basis.

That picture is amazing....wow.

She reminds me of my ex's relatives....in a civilized kind of way.

those damn, dirty apes!

As if the, "walk," isn't bad enough, what's up with those feet? Damn, I hate monkeys and now I can't stop thinking about Planet of the Apes.

evidence of evolution in progress.... It is kind of scary though.

So THAT"S what they do to people in the witness protection program. Not that great of a disguise if you ask me. Look at all the people who recognized her already!

Posted by: Jenn at July 22, 2004 12:45 PM

Nah, I wasn't freaked out. However, shave her, put her in a McDonalds uniform, and stand her behind the counter ... that might do it :)

Repeat after me :

DO YOU WANT FRIES WITH THAT ?

Posted by: MIKE at July 22, 2004 02:38 PM

All the other primates call her a "brown noser"

Alternate take:

"I think I'll go for a walk."

"You're not fooling anybody..."

Are those hammer toes? I'm so embarrassed.

What movie role Ben Stiller won't take for a laugh.

Posted by: ken at July 22, 2004 04:33 PM

When does the movie come out?

Posted by: cassie-b at July 22, 2004 05:17 PM

Posted by: emily at July 22, 2004 06:16 PM

Damn, have I landed on Planet of the Apes?

Posted by: Kim at July 22, 2004 10:23 PM

She reminds me of several clients I have.
