I like Monkeys

    I like monkeys.

    The pet store was selling them for five cents a
    piece. I thought that odd since they were normally a couple thousand. I decided not to look a
    gifthorse in the mouth. I bought 200. I like monkeys.

    I took my 200 monkeys home. I have a big car. I let
    one drive. His name was Sigmund. He was retarded. In fact, none of them were really
    bright. They kept punching themselves in their
    genitals. I laughed. Then they punched my genitals.
    I stopped laughing.

    I herded them into my room. They didn't adapt very
    well to their new environment. They would screech, hurl themselves off the couch at high
    speeds and slam into the wall. Although humorous at
    first, the spectacle lost it's novelty halfway into it's third hour.

    Two hours later I found out why all the monkeys
    were so inexpensive: they all died. No apparent reason. They all just sorta' dropped dead.
    Kinda' like when you buy a goldfish and it dies five
    hours later. Damn cheap monkeys.

    I didn't know what to do. There were 200 dead
    monkeys laying all over my room, on the bed, in the dresser, hanging from my bookcase. It looked
    like I had two hundred throw rugs.

    I tried to flush one down my toilet. It didn't
    work. It got stuck. Then I had one dead, wet monkey and 199 dead dry monkeys.

    I tried pretending that they were just stuffed
    animals. That worked for a while, that is until they began to decompose. It started to smell
    real bad.

    I had to pee but there was a dead monkey in the
    toilet and I didn't want to call the plumber. I was embarassed.

    I tried to slow the decomposition by freezing them.
    Unfortunately there was only enough room for two monkeys at a time so I had to change
    them every 30 seconds. I also had to eat all the food
    in the freezer so it didn't all go bad.

    I tried burning them. Little did I know that my bed
    was flammable. I had to extinguish the fire.

    Then I had one dead, wet monkey in my toilet, two
    dead, frozen monkeys in my freezer, and 197 dead, charred monkeys in a pile on my bed. The odor wasn't improving.

    I became agitated at my inability to dispose of my
    monkeys and to use the bathroom. I severely beat one of my monkeys. I felt better.

    I tried throwing them away but the garbageman said that the city was not allowed to dispose of charred primates. I told him that I had a wet
    one. He couldn't take that one either. I didn't bother
    asking about the frozen ones.

    I finally arrived at my solution. I gave them out
    as Christmas gifts. My friends didn't know quite what to say. They pretended that they liked them but I could tell they were lying. Ingrates. So I punched them in their genitals.

    I like monkeys.

    I love the part about the whole punching in the genetals.

    Someone must have been either stoned or drunk when writing that,

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,496 ✭✭✭quarryman

    dont get me wrong... i like monkeys, but not to an unhealthy extreme. my love for stories about monkeys is exceeded only by my love for the monkeys themselves.

    does that explain it quarryman :rolleyes:

    as a fellow monkey lover im sure you know what i mean

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,266 ✭✭✭Rnger


    That was hilarious, even if it was cashing in on the fact that monkeys are generally funny. That made my day a little bit better

    I'd never seen it before to be honest (which is surprising considering the amount of "jokes" I get in my email)... thought it was really funny when I read it... it was different from the standard jokes with a punchline at the end :)
